After Man City edged past Leicester at the Etihad, we now focus our attentions on a trio of 3pm encounters.

Bournemouth’s in-form Josh King collides with a Burnley defence that’s conceded at least twice in three of their last four league matches.

Owned by 19% of FPL managers, the Norwegian has racked up 11 goals and a pair of assists in the previous 13 Gameweeks to climb into eighth spot in the midfield standings.

Sunderland play the first match of their Double Gameweek 37 as Swansea City make their way to Wearside.

In what may well be his final home outing for the Black Cats, Jermain Defoe has been captained by just over 44,000 FPL managers, with a midweek trip to the Emirates also on his agenda.

With their survival on the line, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Fernando Llorente will be vital for the Swans today.

Still owned by 10% of FPL managers, the Icelandic international has a goal and assist in his previous three, while Llorente was snapped up by almost 44,000 new owners after netting against Stoke and Everton over the same period.

Southampton also get the first of their Double Gameweek 37 matches underway. Jack Stephens owners are left disappointed as he drops to the bench, while Manolo Gabbiadini misses out altogether as Claude Puel attempts to improve a run that has seen the Saints fail to score in four of their last five league outings.

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

    sunderland are a disgrace, the worst team in terms of attitude I've seen in this league

    even villa put up more fight than this when they went down

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

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Revisionist history, mate.

        Villa were every bit as bad as this season's Sunderland.

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I dunno Derby were pretty bad.

      At least Sunderland survived 9 relegation battles before running out of lives.

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        derby won 1 game all season and ended up with 11 points

      2. ChelseaGuy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        No wonder they're called the Black Cats

      3. HazardAGuess
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        They really are the black cats.

    3. Jafooli
      • 13 Years

    8 years, 7 months ago

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