A disrupted Gameweek 28 fixture list delivers just three matches for Saturday afternoon.

Much of our focus will be on the events at Goodison Park, with this week’s leader of the Captain Poll Romelu Lukaku in action against his former side West Bromwich Albion.

The Everton striker is the second most bought player this week, attracting over 363,000 new owners, having returned in each of his last four home outings. The Belgian will be seeking his 19th goal of the season which would represent his biggest ever Premier League season haul; it’s worth noting, however, that the Toffees have failed to score in their last three home encounters against the Baggies.

Swansea City’s Fernando Llorente was the major transfer bandwagon heading into Gameweeks 28 on the back of his brace in the 3-2 win over Burnley. His 375,000 new owners will be hoping he and Gylfi Sigurdsson can produce once again when the Swans travel to Hull City – the Icelander has produced returns in seven of his last eight Gameweeks.

Bournemouth will be looking to put an end to their run of eight matches without a win when they entertain West Ham United on the south coast.

Josh King, who has scored five goals in his last six appearances, could be the key man for the Cherries once again. Meanwhile, the Hammers will look to Andy Carroll and Michail Antonio to inflict the damage. Back from a one-match suspension, the latter will be hoping to end a run of eight matches without a goal – his longest dry spell of the season.

    A point is as precious as gold this week due to pathetic 4 matches only

    Previous weeks, a point wasn't given any Fuchs at all

    Brunt benched, Holgate not even on the bench to make a quick cameo for me

      Think holgate is on bench. Everton team tweets mis leading

    I remember when Lukaku playing for West Brom scored a hat trick against United on the last match of the league. Hoping for a repeat against his old team

    1. Mark-O
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      If it is 0-0 or WBA are 1-0 down after 65 mins he will come on IMO

  8. Gooner97
    • 12 Years

    Could it be worse?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Siggy putting a pen wide would end it all for me.

  9. Team Cruel
