After Brighton claimed a vital win over Arsenal at the Amex Stadium, Sunday’s second and final fixture sees Manchester City entertain Chelsea in the 4pm kick-off.

The league leaders boast two of the top six captain picks for Gameweek 29 in Sergio Aguero (6.8%) and Kevin De Bruyne (2.5%).

Over their last four home matches, Aguero has nine goals and 50 points in Fantasy Premier League (FPL), while De Bruyne has three sets of double-digits and 45 points.

Leroy Sane’s goal and assist at the Emirates on Thursday evening has had a significant impact on the FPL transfer market. The most bought player (235,000+) for Gameweek 29, the German international goes in search of a sixth 10+ points haul in front of his own fans.

Meanwhile, sales of Raheem Sterling look set to escalate as he misses out again. The most sold player in each of the last two Gameweeks, he was transferred out by a hefty 746,000+ during that period.

For the visitors, Eden Hazard arrives on the back of fine recent away output – he’s racked up 40 points in his previous four on the road, thanks to four goals and an assist.

The Belgian looks set to start as a “false 9” today, with Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud named among the Chelsea subs.

Both Pedro and Willian start alongside Hazard, with the Brazilian, in particular, boasting fine form. Willian was bought by over 95,000 FPL managers for Gameweek 29, with last week’s opener at Old Trafford taking his tally to four strikes in the last three matches across all competitions.

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

    Congratulations City Defence owners. At this rate guaranteed CS

    1. Oven Glover

    2. Patch

      Ota is going to punish sellers with a goal too

    3. Boom Xhaka-Laca
      • 8 Years

      Hazard and Willian are both capable of moments of magic, so wouldn't be so sure

      1. Boom Xhaka-Laca
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Pedro and Fabregas too for that matter

  5. Zilla

    Chelsea are invisible

    Where is Hazard?

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

      Across most of the UK after the snow has turned to ice.

  7. rnrd

    Sané looks super sharp.
    Too bad Mendy’s imminent return is putting a big question mark over his appeal for the remainder of the season

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

      Why is that?

      Do you think Pep will go to a back 5 with wingbacks?

      1. rnrd
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Unlikely but possible

  8. FPL Scoop

    Gundogan goal and assist for dsilva, and
    either ota off before 60 tactically, or moses goal to wipe cs.

  9. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Sane is too good and too fast

  10. rnrd
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    Even when rudiger shoots in de Bruynés head Kevin makes it a pass

  11. Kai
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    Hazard to sucker punch City with the first goal!

  12. Point-one short
    • 9 Years

    Wish I' d started Dunk over Alonso.

  13. Sailboats

    Are Man City good enough win the champions league?

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Of course

    2. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Of course. They are the bookmakers favourites.

    3. The Enlightener
      • 12 Years

      Yes

    4. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years

      Yes. The may they're playing.

      1. Perthite
        • 15 Years

        More concerned with March & April atm.

    5. Debauchy
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      I have a small bet on them , so sure

    6. Revival

      nah Liverpool will beat them over 2 legs in the quarter finals

    7. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      The bookies have them as favorites if that is anything to go by.

    Sane ending the season in my team after the blank

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

      After they win the title (in 4 weeks time).. Pep will prioritise Champs League so expect rotation galore

    2. FDMS All Starz
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Pep might rotate for CL after the league is done

    3. Louis Cypher
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      City need 15 more points I believe to win the prem so Sane next 5/6 games could be a great punt esp if Radio Raheem is out

  15. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    Never like it when Hazard is the false 9, he returns much better with a big front man to feed off

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

      Yeah he is. Conte just trying to stifle City like Barca and hope that they stay in the game.

    1. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years

    2. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Red would have been harsh, but a clear yellow.

      1. Stats Don\'t Lie
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Definitely a strong orange, just thinking bearing in mind what guardiola said should've been rcs in recent weeks...

    3. Debauchy
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago
