With the Spurs assets delivering in the early kick-off, we move our attention to six more encounters to seek out further returns.

Arsenal’s trip to Swansea City undoubtedly provides the key interest, with more than 700,000 (16.5%) FPL managers turning to Alexis Sanchez as their Gameweek 21 captain.

With Olivier Giroud earning more than 350,000 transfers ahead of today’s deadline, it’s fair to say that Fantasy managers will be willing Arsenal to follow Spurs’ lead and produce goals and points aplenty.

Paul Clement’s first home game in charge provides an unwanted x-factor, however. It remains to be seen if he can lift a Swans side that has shipped 23 goals at the Liberty Stadium, the worst home record in the Premier League.

Elsewhere, Sunderland’s Jermain Defoe is heavily backed ahead of a home encounter with Stoke City. Brought in by 266,000 FPL managers ahead of Gameweek 21, more than any other FPL forward, Defoe has returned a goal or an assist in five of his last six Stadium of Light encounters.

Meanwhile, at the KCOM Stadium, a host of mid-price and budget assets go head to head with our focus on the likes of Robert Snodgrass, Junior Stanislas and Charlie Daniels.

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

    Giroud just told Wenger to wait until half-time before bringing him off. He's been carrying an injury for most of the game.

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 21 days ago

    2. Lizard Lips
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 21 days ago
