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.

      They are not losing away to the best team in the league. Makes sense. They could easily steal a 1-0 win.

      its funny how his United side do the exact same tactics as Chelsea today

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

      Ofcourse It doesnt feel nice when the noisy neighbours have better manager and better football than the club you love

  6. HNI

    Chelsea should easily steamroll Barca the way they playing

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years

      Not with Barca paying off the refs like every season

  7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years

    This is embarrassing from chelsea

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Not if we win 1-0

      That’s how we won the champo

    2. HNI
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Peformance of the season. As they still not 3-0 down in 30' like Arsenal were

    3. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Why? Is this figure skating where the judges award style points? I don’t get these judgments. The score is even. That’s all that matters.

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        It's not style im on about

        You have Drinkwater and fabregas playing back passes everytime they get the ball. Hazard has now ambition to play as a forward he's literally static up front so the defenders are lumping it long

        That's why

        1. walkman666
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          Well, when you say “embarrassing,” it’s difficult to interpret. I would agree that Chelsea could be better when they get the ball, and they had a couple of counters which they truly blew in terms of execution.

    Having no players in this game (dubious wc for this week to fix team, but on 56 with David de Gea to play).

    What's the best outcome from here?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      22 red cards before 60 minutes.

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

        haha - though if a game get's abandoned for players sent off. Does it get rescheduled?

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

          No, points would go to the team that didn’t have 5+ players sent off.

          If both get 5+ players sent off in a mass brawl though, I’m not sure. They’d prob just move to a five a side pitch and play on there?

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years

      You’ve used your WC?

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

        Wanted to hold out but injuries and poor fixtures for my team were piling up. Would have taken multiple hits to fix and decided to focus on current game weeks and aim for only 7-8 players in BGW.

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          That’s fair enough, gonna be mayhem planning for DGW’s and the next blank though. I wish you luck 🙂

    3. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      1-1 with unusual scorers (e.g. Zinchenko, Drinkwater) or OGs is aways best when you have no involvement

    4. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      1-1 with low ownership players.

  18. rnrd

    Giroud instead of Pedro would give a much more interesting set up to chelsea in this sit-back counter-attack set up

  19. Je suis le chat
    • 12 Years

    Phewtamendi.

    1. Jafooli

  20. Debauchy

    Fgs, Chelsea are playing away to by far the best side in the Prem.
    They have weathered the storm so far

  21. NATSTER
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    That combo of disallowed goal would be great points for me.

    1. Chelsea Dagger

  22. Colonel Shoe 肝池

    Jeez my heart can't take that

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

    Alonso is on every time for the counter, just needs one good pass.

  24. tm245
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    They are without their most important player so Chelsea have decided to bolt the door in the hopes of catching one on the counter, not that surprising nor ineffective.

  25. Emiliano Sala
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    Madness but I'm going to sell kane for auba. Tough fixtures for spurs and great run for gunners
    Also need cash.
    And salah has proved himself as the best captain option

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

      Good luck with that

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      I do agree with this, it’s why i don’t understand people wanting to bring in Son, horrible fixtures ahead including a blank.

    3. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      I'm contemplating Kane for Lukaku on WC. Madness indeed.

  26. diesel001

    David Silva (12)
    Laporte (12)
    De Bruyne (11)
    Otamendi (10)
    Zinchenko (10)

  27. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Otamendi ban incoming?

    With Sterling out and Alonso my only interest in this game, I'm not hating this Chelsea spoiling performance.

  29. El-Kloppico
    • 10 Years

    Ref indeed owns Ota in FPL.

  30. Gobigorgohome

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years

      No
