The first of seven days of double Gameweek 37 action gets underway at Goodison Park this evening as Everton take on Watford in the 7.45pm kick-off.

Sold by more Fantasy Premier League managers than any player since last Friday’s deadline, the Toffees’ Romelu Lukaku looks to extend his three-goal lead over Harry Kane in the race for this season’s Golden Boot.

The Belgian collected 3% of votes in our Captain Poll – more than any single-Gameweek player – and has already returned 12 points against the Hornets back in December.

Chelsea head to The Hawthorns for an 8pm kick-off knowing that a win over West Brom would clinch the Premier League crown.

Essentially, we’re looking for the Baggies to do us a favour and keep the title race alive, forcing Antonio Conte to field his big-hitters in Monday’s plum home clash against Watford and giving Spurs extra incentive in their final match at the Lane against Man United on Sunday.

Despite those concerns over potential rotation, both Eden Hazard (14%) and Diego Costa (9%) found a place in the top five of our Captain Poll – the latter is second only to Manchester City’s Gabriel Jesus for transfers in this week on the back of three goals and as many assists in his last five outings.

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

    The best thing about playing my bench boost is knowing that this time, for sure, I have not stuffed up the order of my substitutes.
