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.

    Rough and Smooth about that Chelsea goal:

    Smooth: West Brom defenders knocked off the BPS, meaning likely BPs for Alonso

    Rough: ROTATION

      No way bonus for Alonso, Azpi assist too...

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Alonso currently on 2 BPs

        1. My Name Is Prince

      No chance of Alonso getting baps, he'll get deductions for being an awful footballer.

      1. nkhoughton
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        He's amazing when he scores, crap when he only gets a cs, get over yourself

        1. Team Cruel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          He's fpl gold but not a top class footballer.

    1. Lawrø

    2. My Name Is Prince
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      at least none of them are my captain (don't even have Costa) !!!!!

    3. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Costa will. Hazard won't. IMO.

      1. Feloh
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        why risk players getting injuries when you have a final to play and the trophy in the bag.

  3. Syd.

  4. For Fuchs Sake

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      He will definitely rest them vs Watford

      1. For Fuchs Sake
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Why? Homecoming as champions, surely put out a full squad?

        1. Bubz
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          The trophy is presented in GW38 at home
