Fantasy managers’ final preparations are in full swing, undeterred by the frosty conditions. We’ve just over the hour to go before another Fantasy deadline is upon us and, at present, it seems we’re still clinging to a full Premier League programme like it’s a warm thermos of bovril. Our Saturday Surgery Chatroom is now open to ease you into the final hour, offering a sounding board for your last minute tinkerings.

With no early kick-off, the Dugout Discussion will begin around 2.45 prior to today’s three o’clock fixtures. A thermal-clad pre-match preamble is on the way.

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

    If there is a player who does quite well this week, are people inclined to trade them in with their wildcard to make a small profit?
