The penultimate match of Gameweek 19 has us drop in on Turf Moor as Burnley host Tottenham Hotspur.

Fantasy managers will be suffering split loyalties in this one, with Harry Kane clearly the key attacking asset on the pitch, up against the resilient and widely owned Burnley defence.

Kane goes into this encounter still in 2.1 million squads but having suffered ownership losses in both his previous two Gameweeks. Indeed, some 108,000 moved him out ahead of this match.

Even so, the Spurs striker is the Gameweek’s most popular captain with the backing of 867,000, just 40% of his remaining managers.

He will be tested by the Clarets backline that has conceded just three goals in home matches. However with James Tarkowski suspended and Stephen Ward still sidelined by injury, Sean Dyche’s rearguard could be stretched.

Ben Mee is still found in 724,000 squads and starts, while goalkeeper Nick Pope – owned by 357,000 – will be charged with repelling Kane and the likes of Christian Eriksen and Son Heung-min.

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

      I've been saying this to the non-captainers all week, Burnley played only teams from the bottom of the table Arsenal and I think Watford at home so far. It's a highly misleading fact that ended up being just that.

    Moral of the story, always captain Kane?

      Nope. Pick wisely.

    Kanexiters do not worry, fantasy gods gave Kane a big chance today with half the Burnley defence unavailable, still time for him to blank against southampton.

    (Bitter as I have missed 9/15 of his goals due to impatience)

      Harry sends the lol to people who said Burnley keep clean sheets with makeshift defense lololol

      Despite getting potential century this week this game can make you feel sick

    6. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Kane is getting another I know it

    7. GreenArrows
      • 9 Years

      Captained Sterling...FAIL!

      Still own Kane though

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I did this, and am not too disappointed. It was difficult to expect a haul in this particular game over Sterling.

      2. DrunkPhilosophy
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Same, Definitely not a fail though.

        1. GreenArrows
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Hurts when ML rival captained Kane when he owns Aguero....hurts a little

      3. J T

        Same but I’m not mad. Be happy! 😀

        I think there's quite a few of us in this boat. If the score stays the same now then we're only -4 from that decision. I can handle that.

      5. Kun, Ayew Nigerian?
        • 10 Years

        Just 8 points difference. Not bad

      Selling Kane for austin seemed a good move at around 3.15pm...

      1. HALFSPACE
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        kane to austin...listen to yourself for a second

    12. walkman666

      Just as so many of us go to 5 man midfield, flashback Saturday has Aguero and Kane dominant, with Lukaku remaining. Gonna mess with a lot of Fantasy plans.

      1. Delph & Safety
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Aguero is a rotation risk so we can slightly ignore him, but as Mark said he was hesitant about going straight for it and he was right. Everything seems to change every week this season.

      Best Austin replacement?

      Gray
      Depoitre
      Murray
      Someone else

      Thanks

      1. Kun Tozser

        Kane or Aguero unless you fancy holding

      2. jaybradlights
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I have the same issue - DCL ahead of this lot. I'm looking at Depoitre atm, great fixtures and a focal point for HUD
