Saturday’s events continue with a quartet of three o’clock kick-offs.

From a Fantasy Football perspective, interest appears limited to Sunderland’s Stadium of Light encounter with Watford and West Ham’s meeting with Hull City at the London Stadium.

Jermain Defoe’s 25.4% ownership will have high hopes of the Black Cats’ marksman ahead of his collision with the Hornets defence.

Walter Mazzarri’s rearguard have shipped an average of two goals a game on their travels, a statistic that suggests that Defoe will have the opportunity to return to the scoresheet having blanked in his previous two Gameweek outings.

Much is expected of West Ham’s primary attacking asses – Dimitri Payet, Michail Antonio and Andy Carroll – against Hull City.

The Tigers arrive having conceded 20 goals in eight away matches, 35 overall this season – more than any other side on both counts.

Elsewhere, Swansea’s Gylfi Sigurdsson will carry the hopes of his 10.3% ownership into a Riverside Stadium meeting with Middlesbrough.

The home side shipped three goals in midweek to Liverpool, but, to that point, were resolute in defence, conceding seven goals over their seven previous outings on Teesside.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    This week has been the return of the clean sheets so far. And looks like it has decided to continue that way.

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      30 minutes into the games? That's quite a bold statement.

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 days ago

        When Hull away and M'brough are the best attacks on field atm, it doesn't look like we're going to witness a helluvalot of goals.

  8. Tansey

    Costa to Ibra (for SUN,MID,whu), then switching back in GW21 (for lei, HULL) seems a good option for those of us who aren't going to lose a load of TV.

      Have you forgotten Aguero ?

        9 years, 4 days ago

        I probable do Kane to Kun for either for the liv or more probably BUR game.

  11. FALCAO & MOU
    • 10 Years

    Amateur conceded the penalty.

  12. Over Midwicket
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Well I think we've all learned never EVER under ANY circumstances or fixture play Amat

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      Might play De Roon next week ahead of Amat. Quite a Conundrum.

    2. Laurel and Vardy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      This. He looks like a Championship material. No good for Premier football.

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years

    honestly, how bad are swansea?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

    2. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 4 days ago

        As bad as your posts on match day. So utterly terrible.

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 4 days ago

          on par with yours then?

          Coming from you Worzel.

          You're the most negative depressing bloke on the forum.

        3. Siggy in the Middle
          • 10 Years

          Unnecessary.

        they must honestly, truly, suck to lose against bottomborough.

        xox.

    3. Postman Ty

      Craig Pawson, ref of the year.

      1. Sjaugen
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 days ago

        Which game is he reffing? The mid week ManU game reffing was horrible from him

        1. Postman Ty
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 4 days ago

          just showed vardy straight red

    4. SilkySkills
      • 12 Years

      The one time I stick in Amat.

    5. Clutch13
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      Negredo my love

    6. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      Amat is rotten.

    7. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      One of my ML rivals put Negredo in this week. Good thing he's about 100 points back...

    8. FPL Emu
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      Pawson is such a horrible ref. Crystal Palace - United he didn't make one correct decision. It's like this every time. How he still refs the PL is beyond me

    9. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      People doing Costa to Ibra, and I am doing Kane to Ibra and benching Costa.

      1. Fred54
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 days ago

        Aye, can't afford to do Costa > Ibra.

        If Kane blanks then getting Ibra ASAP.

        nice

      1. Grand Thibauto
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 days ago

        But it was 1-1 on Negredo.

        1. Cilly Bonnolly
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 4 days ago

          It was yes. But if I hadn't asked, and just did it, I'd have Negredo.

          1. Licious Lizard
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 4 days ago

            Lol stop

            1. Cilly Bonnolly

              • 14 Years
              9 years, 4 days ago

              Okay, just to be clear, not blaming anyone but myself and also not seriously that upset, hence the 😀

              1. Licious Lizard
                • 12 Years
                9 years, 4 days ago

                Yeah it's always a beech when you were about to do a transfer and he gets a brace (at least). But you not making the decision shouldn't be related to your post on here.

                Too bad though 🙂 Would have been an excellent punt...

                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 14 Years
                  9 years, 4 days ago

                  Qué será será. Just need to hope Origi's fit and does the business.

      2. Krafty Werks
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 days ago

        Snap...i picked Negredo as the best replacement for Nacho for the next 2 at least but was put off by people's remarks so went Origi...damn...need to go with own thoughts sometimes!!
