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.

    Oh my days Josh King

    What a goal, like a prime Dennis Bergkamp

    1. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah, beautiful. I cannot believe this is the same Josh King that scored 3 goals in 57 matches for Blackburn.... Hard work pays off!

  2. Pocky

    I played bench f**kery with Funes Mori & Snoddy...guess I had it coming.

    1. Sim Simma

      • 15 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Did you Pocky the Beast

  3. Sz21

    8 years, 9 months ago

    So this looks like the GW when it all wrong.
    -12 hit.. (sure what could go wrong).

    Llorente off injured..
    Snodgrass/Funes Mori/Brunt on the bench..

    Was really confident that I would do well and all.
    Need things to start turning around pronto.

  4. Jay_
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Top 1k average is 14 from 5.3 players

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        28 points so far despite King pen miss.

      2. Slam
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        But how many players do they have on average, do you know?

      3. KingNidge
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Before hits Jay?

      4. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        What? How so high?

      5. Jay_
          8 years, 9 months ago

          They account for hits (FFF, very accurate)

        • Bunk Moreland
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Lots of Lukaku (C)

      6. Cpt Crunch Scott talent

        I own Schneiderlin 🙂

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

          Top 3 million tonight so 🙂

          1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
            • 12 Years

            I should be so lucky 🙂

      7. Dacra
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        ML rival has Schneiderlin. How?!

        1. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          my mini-league leader has 4 players this week...2 of them are Schneiderlin and Randolph

          1. McQueen
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            Wow. Unlucky mate.

      8. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Could Amat get CS points if two minutes or more of injury time is played ?

        1. Bazzalona
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          My understanding is a sub gets till 90.
          They can play 97 mins if he came on 33rd for example he'd only get 57 mins.

        2. SirStevieG
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Lol

        3. jason_ni
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          No.. if there is 7 minster on injury time, 2nd half counts as 45 minster total

          1. bitm2007
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            No worries, I should be thankful for the unexpected point (if he keeps it)

      9. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Llorente to Kane ft?

        1. Fred54
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Barnes and Llorente 》Kane and Gabs -4

        2. Pep bites Kun
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Absolutely - Kane rising - Llor will be ditched as fast as contaminated waste

        1. Somalion
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          In fairness, it looks like just one saddle sniffing fan

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

        IF Rondon comes on now and blanks and Baines doesn't get a pen does Amat then get a CS?

        1. Slam
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Confirmed

        2. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          No - Amat will get 1 point

        3. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Yes but only if a super volcano goes boom.

        4. Begbie.
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          McAuley would get Amat's points in this case.

      11. Magic Bean

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

            He's 5th out of 70. How does that happen?

        2. Pep bites Kun
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          More than likely down the pub right now asking when the Chelsea game starts ... 🙂

        8 years, 9 months ago

        Sorry guys.

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          No it was my fault

          1. Somalion
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            Well f**k the pair of you

      16. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Why did Randolph get a pen save?!?!? BBC said King put it wide?!?!

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          He did but he saved the 2nd pen

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

          He saved Afobes one.

        3. Slam
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Afobe missed another 😆
          I know, crazy right?

        4. KingNidge
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          He saved Afobe pen

        5. Hooky
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          He saved a second penalty

        6. Sim Simma
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years

        7. F4L
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          oh, cheers lads

      17. SirStevieG
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        If McAuley scores in the 93rd minute does Amat get a clean sheet?

        1. Hooky
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Yes, and an assist

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

          No. They just don't count the injury time.

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

          +4 BPS for Rondon

      18. Lav
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        As a King owner I think I am more mad than happy considering he should be on a hatty.

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          One kick another way can chance the flow of the game. Butterfly effect n all that. If he had scored he may have then been sent off or something. Take the points

      19. Jafooli
        • 13 Years

          1. ScotDougie
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

        1. Jay_
            8 years, 9 months ago

            Will give a nice buffer for his inevitable drop in the week

          If I did three transfers for -8, how do I know if I took a hit for King or llorenthe?

          1. El-Kloppico
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            Who cares. :p

            • 9 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            LOL... but if your serious your 1st transfer is the 'free' one.

            Great start....should be 10-0 up......
