Gameweek 27 gets off to a potentially inauspicious start as Fulham pay host to Stoke City at the Cottage. Having been robbed of Premier League action last Saturday, today’s opener isn’t perhaps our fixture of choice, with both sides struggling for form. The Potters turn up with just one win in their last seven, whilst Martin Jol’s side have scored in just one of their last four. We’re hoping for goals and entertainment; we fear a 0-0 battle of attrition.

Our Dugout Discussion Chatroom is now open to collect you real-time reactions to this game and Saturday’s other five fixtures.

The team news from the Cottage finds Martin Jol able to welcome back Sascha Riether after he missed the 0-0 draw against Norwich through illness. Giorgos Karagounis and Ashkan Dejagah also earn starts in midfield as Emmanuel Frimpong and Hugo Rodallega drop out, the latter earning a place on the bench. Visitors Stoke make two changes – both significant. As we expected, Marc Wilson, the much publicised 3.9 prospect, returns at left-back with Andy Wilkinson making way. Geoff Cameron is the other popular Fantasy pick to reappear: the American international is given a midfield berth on the right with Michael Kightly making way.

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

        Figured it would be -2 considering Enrique wasn't going to play in any case, and wanted to put out a full XI.

    My opponent has obviously had a busy week. Captaining Suarez with Michu as deputy. Who will be his captain? Next most expensive?

      He doesn't get one, and doesn't deserve one either.

        Cameron for me 🙄

        Sometimes a little knowledge is a dangerous thing - had Harte up until my Jan wildcard but switched to Pearce as "more nailed on and bigger goal threat". Miffed.

    Can't see a Rio & Vidic vs Real Madrid. Evans has been their best centre back this season.

    I don't own Evans, but resting home to Norwich would have been less confusing.
