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.

    This GW is like a leg. A leg that belongs to a person who doesn't like me very much. A leg that happens to be a meter away from me and comes with a steel-toe capped boot at the end of it. A leg that is constantly going back and forth, and kicking me really hard in the crotch.

    If I have five defenders, even if three of them aren't playing, can a player from another position be auto-subbed if it creates a valid formation?

      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago
