Fantasy managers are treated to the remaining eight matches of Gameweek 16 this Wednesday evening, with a trio of
encounters getting underway at 7.45pm.

Sadio Mane and Divock Origi are the form men as Liverpool look for a first win in three at the Riverside. Roberto Firmino arrives on the back of four straight blanks and was second only to Charlie Austin for transfers out in the Gameweek.

With Eden Hazard absent, the stage is set for Diego Costa as Chelsea visit Sunderland. The Blues frontman was the most captained player in Fantasy Premier League for Gameweek 16, with 23% handing him the armband.

West Ham embark on the first of three very favourable fixtures, with Dimitri Payet and Michail Antonio on our radars for the visit of Burnley.

In the 8pm matches, all eyes will be on Captain Poll winner Harry Kane as Spurs welcome Hull to White Hart Lane. We’ll also be monitoring Scout Picks duo Toby Alderweireld and Christian Eriksen against the struggling Tigers.

In-form pair Christian Benteke and Zlatan Ibrahimovic go head-to-head as Palace welcome United to Selhurst Park. With returns in six of the last seven, Wilfried Zaha was the most transferred in player for Gameweek 16.

With Sergio Aguero suspended, faith in Man City has dwindled ahead of what should be a plum home clash against Watford. Kevin De Bruyne is the man most likely as the Etihad side look to recover from back-to-back defeats.

We’re also keeping a keen eye on Differential Sofiane Boufal as Southampton head to Stoke. Having bagged the winner at home to ‘Boro, the Moroccan could be set to step up in the absence of Charlie Austin, promoting his prospects as a mid-price midfield candidate ahead of some fine fixtures.

West Brom have their work cut out to stop Gylfi Sigurdsson as Swansea make their way to the Hawthorns.

The Swans’ playmaker has racked up four goals and as many assists in eight appearances under Bob Bradley and faces a defence with one clean sheet in the last 12 Gameweeks.

Matt Phillips and Salomon Rondon also have the chance to maintain momentum tonight – Swansea have conceded 12 goals in four road trips since their new manager was installed.

    Bailly injury - Jones now even more nailed?

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Who'd you really risk him though, he's made of glass himself.

    2. Porkchops Johnson
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Would think so. Smalling back soon, so likely to be those two as centre backs, unless Mourinho decides to stary playing Blind again

      1. Porkchops Johnson
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        But keep in mind that he's fairly injury prone

  24. La Roja
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Bailly off

  25. Mini Mane Mo
    • 9 Years

    • 10 Years

  27. Boydinho
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Bailly, 3rd strike and he is out

  28. Winks Club
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Redmond to Lallana -4 worked out well then!

  29. Limited & Mediocre Mana…

  30. Kaneyonero
