A four-match slate of Sunday fixtures gets underway at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea host West Bromwich Albion in the noon kick-off.

Eden Hazard and Diego Costa are the main weapons of choice for Fantasy Premier League managers.

Both clinched a place in the top three of this week’s Captain Poll.

Hazard has racked up 60 of his 97 points at the Bridge, though has lacked Costa’s overall consistency. The most popular player in FPL, with an ownership level over 51%, the Spain international has blanked just twice in 14 Gameweeks.

Three goals and as many assists in four suggests that Matt Phillips is the man most likely to breach a Blues defence that’s conceded just twice in the last eight rounds of fixtures.

We’ll be looking for Scout Pick Marcus Alonso for points at both ends of the pitch today. The Spaniard – who remains a differential with under 7% ownership – has served up a goal, an assist and two clean sheets in his last three at the Bridge.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    No Evans or Dawson from WBA against Swansea on Tuesday night, Siggy's going to have a field day.

      Good point. Might punt on Llorente, can't afford Siggy unless its for Firminho..

  9. Boydinho

  12. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Like for like with Pedro on for Willian. How is that going to change the pattern of the game?

  13. NATSTER
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Willian in for Pedro

  14. Whats the Huth
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Why no Cedric?!!!!

    1. Numb
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Puel said they had some doubts. Didn't specify

  15. Numb
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Jammy Evans owners

    1. Declan
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      He's still on

      1. Numb
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        That's what I mean, he made 60 mins even with a hammy

        1. Declan
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          There's 25mins left?

  16. thunder_mike
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Damn have Amat as 3rd sub

  17. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Currently on my bench: Zaha McAuley Amat 😀

    1. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      9 years, 10 days ago

      Haha sick

    2. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Ouch.

      Just Amat and McCauley here.

  18. HazardAGuess
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    I took a hit to bring in Cedric (Defender, I know...) with Amat first on the bench. Conflicted feelings. Lucky, though.

  19. Mark-O

    9 years, 10 days ago

    Southampton v Boro lineups look so weird

    1. The Royal Robin
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Saints team looks particularly weak.

    2. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Just a rotation with midweek game in mind.

  20. The Royal Robin
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Bringing in Alonso for a hit feels like a good move at the moment.

  21. Knowledgeable meerkat
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Someone needs to tell Robbie Savage that Willian on for Alonso just won't work. Donkey

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Why? Willian could easily play wing back against a team barely attacking.

  22. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    No Cedric 😀

    6 Amat points coming off the bench!!!

  23. Pierce34
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    I think Puel is resting players - no way is that his first XI, Bertrand benched apart from Redmond, and no Cedric of course.

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      I think so

  24. Jigger & Pony
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Damn why did I put Pieters ahead of Evans on my bench...

  25. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    I was very close to bringing in Cedric i missed a bullet there

  26. Zlatans little helper

    89th minute Chelsea penalty incoming.

    1. dark91
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      I don't mind if Hazard will miss it

  27. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Well glad I sold Pedro this week, at least I got to enjoy his goal vs Spurs

  28. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Cmon Brunt grab a goal

  29. The Fantastic Mr Fox

    To those who've watched Dortmund

    Does Mkhitaryan take freekicks?

    United hasn't had a decent set piece specialist since RVP left. Even Mata has been pants

    1. Somalion
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Not really, Dortmund usually had others to take them.

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Nope he's not a specialist. Ibra will be on most of them.

    Phillips causing havoc
