A day of goals and points aplenty ends with the main event as Spurs host Manchester United in the final fixture to be played at White Hart Lane.

A momentous day for the club, it’s unfortunate for Spurs and for owners of their key Fantasy assets, that the result is somewhat academic.

While Mauricio Pochettino’s men will look to provide their supporters with a fitting sign-off, they will need to lift themselves following the Gameweek 36 reverse at West Ham and Chelsea’s title-winning triumph that followed.

Fantasy managers will be hoping for a quick revival.

Dele Alli and Harry Kane head into the tea-time kick-off owned by 33.8% and 20% of FPL managers respectively, while Christian Eriksen is still found in 18.6% of squads. Kyle Walker also remains the top owned defender (30.7%), although he again misses out today with Kieran Trippier preferred at right-back.

For Kane, there should be no need for extra motivation. He will not only seek to score the final goal at White Hart Lane, he is still giving chase to both Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku in the race for the Golden Boot. He his currently level with Arsenal’s Chilean on 21 goals, trailing the Everton striker by three.

Kane has seven goals from his last six starts but has yet to score against visitors Manchester United in six attempts.

Jose Mourinho’s side arrive to present another line-up influenced by their Europa League campaign. The United manager makes predictable changes following Thursday’s hard-fought 1-1 draw with Celta Vigo as Wayne Rooney starts, along with Anthony Martial in attack.

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

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        He must feel like a right dope signing that contract extension.

  15. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    I have Eriksen no Kane, rival has Kane C, no Eriksen.

    Would rather lose the battle to win the war.

    Alli and Eriksen double fail... 2 points locked...

  23. acidicleo
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Watching this match my main feeling is:

    Why did I retain Alli on WC instead of Eriksen...
    ML rival has eriksen.....Tensed...

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Did you miss his shot?

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

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

  24. Crouching Tiger
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    FPL mistake of the season. Getting Gabbiadini in for DGW's.

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      On paper it looked a good move but the writing was on the wall ...

  25. SuperMario
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    So with relation battle over, who will be the key targets to bring in for GW 38?

    Have 2 FTs so hoping to get in nice differentials..

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

      JT, Matip, Coutinho, Sturridge...

    2. Rash
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      I'm eyeing up studge and coutinho

    3. Individual
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Tough! Maybe Leicester players? I'm looking at King to Albrighton I think. Have a decent squad but might as well use the ft

    4. SuperMario
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      LIV, TOT, CHE, City all have nice games I guess.. Probably LIV player (s)

  26. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Eriksen delivery been poor so far

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Kane begs to differ.. So does the crossbar

  27. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Tuanzebe trying a Sanchez on Eriksen

  28. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Who is more likely to get gametime against Sunderland next week? Hazard or Costa? I'm thinking Haz to Coutinho and Anichebe to Llorente for a -4 next week. How does that look?

  29. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Wanyama to soon get a YC

  30. CloudSky
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Has Kane ever scored against United?

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

      Not yet.. hope it stays that way as a non owner

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

        Thought so, thanks.
