The first of two Sunday fixtures gets underway at 1.30pm this afternoon as Sunderland welcome Manchester United to the Stadium of Light.

The most popular captaincy choice for Gameweek 32, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been handed the armband by 15.7% of Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of a visit to the basement-dwellers.

Encouragingly for his owners, the veteran delivered his highest haul of the season against the Black Cats, with a goal and two assists helping him to 15 points back in Gameweek 18.

With eight fixtures remaining in the final six Gameweeks, including a double Gameweek 34, the likes of Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan can play their way into our plans for the run-in today.

Those holding the hosts’ Jermain Defoe will be buoyed by the absence of David de Gea, who misses out for the first time this term with “a little problem, according to his manager.

Meanwhile, Antonio Valencia’s 17% owners are left frustrated yet again, as the Ecuadorian is omitted from the squad for the second match in succession.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Sunderland should stick with Moyes next year. They need stability above anything.

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

      odd the one year they don't sack the manager is the year they are relegated

  8. boc610

    people surprised by Leicester team should look at their fixture next Wednesday

  10. andymck

  11. Bubz

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

    Mou is too in love with Ibra to sub him in a game or just scared of him. Has to be one or the other.

    1. KingNidge
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Both

    2. tm245

  15. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    that pass has given IBRA (c) another 12 points

  16. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Ibra shouldve scored there

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

    Just so depressing that I always fall away after a great spell

  18. Somalion
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    So close for another for Ibra.

    1. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Sorry just woke up what's the story with Valencia. Just Mou being a clown or what?

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        • 15 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Just rested him, needs to progress in the Europa League so may as well keep him fresh

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy hasn't played yet.

      1. Jazz!
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Ok mate

        8 years, 8 months ago

        And me. Gutted mate

      • Ben the Mee
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Vardy party could still be on, would have a better chance if Williams was on the pitch.

      • Brap.
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Oh Ibra!

      • JJeyy
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Can I just get Ibra instead of Kane when I have Alli and Erikson?

        1. DR0GBA
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          I'm considering this too, but United's next fixture isn't the best

          1. King H
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            If anyone can score against Chelsea it's the big man.

            1. DR0GBA
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              and King

        2. Numb
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Why not?

      • King H
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Zlatan should of had a Hatrick and a couoke of assists

      • SirStevieG
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        From 6 points to 12.

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

        5 United players booked

      • Jay_
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Darmian yc guarantees Ibra at least 2 although 3 likely even before that

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

            3 no doubt. Winning goal bonus to come too.

        • ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          No 6th save for Pickford?

          1. Jazz!
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

          8 years, 8 months ago

          Changed (C) from Ibra to Alli last minute but happy as it's looking like another decent GW for me. Congrats to all who gave the mighty Zlatan the armband!
