Sunday serves up a trio of Gameweek encounters, with Thursday’s Europa League ties pushing Hull and Tottenham’s home fixtures alongside Man United’s trip to the Stadium of Light.

Events begin at the KC Stadium and White Hart Lane, with Steve Bruce’s Hull hosting Stoke and Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs facing a London derby clash with QPR. Fantasy managers will be focused mainly on the latter, with Christian Eriksen the top owned asset on show from the early kick-offs.

Attention then turns to the North East, with Louis van Gaal’s United outfit taking on Sunderland in a bid to get their season underway following the opening day defeat to Swansea. With a staggering 48% ownership, Wayne Rooney remains the headline act, while Juan Mata’s 19% ownership will be holding out for returns in order to stem a tide of sales that have already seen the Spanish playmaker drop in price.

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

    Pieters cleanie gone. Against 10 men. Hopeless from stoke

    1. Nabs Kebabs
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      stoke def is so overrated

  4. Syd.
    • 16 Years

    Pulis back to Stoke

  5. Reed_Rothchild
    • 16 Years

    Best developmental academies: West Ham and Southhampton.

    So...Caulker conceded three goals...Chester got a red card after 13 minutes....and Begovic managed to concede a goal from a 10 men team. Today was supposed to IMPROVE my gameweek, not the opposite.

    1. Adam
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Were you really expecting points from Caulker and Begovic?

      1. Frank Black
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        From Begovic, yes. From Caulker? A goal maybe.

  7. DIegoCosta19

    my wildcard looking good

  8. Adam
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Hull nearly score a second. Stoke are a mess.

  9. Shanty Toon
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Benched Chester last week and he gets 15pts, play him this week and I get -2pts. Rotation is my FAVOURITE!

    Do we think Chester will drop this week, or does he get protected when he goes red?

    1. Gaz Downright
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      if you had him last week it won't matter as he's 4.6 now

  10. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    At this rate Caulker will be outscored by Chester >:(

  11. CostaCoffee
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    1-0 yess UTT

  12. DIegoCosta19
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    if only i had sterling for mata in the first game ffs

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Stoke all over the place defensively

  14. Adro3
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    I hate this game....Bego cleanie gone too

  15. djenzio
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    stoke.....:(

  16. Hazard for Ballon D'or
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    If stoke score 2 does Chester get the -1 as well?????

    1. Tin of Directors
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yes.

      1. djenzio
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        surely not as he is off the pitch

        1. Gaz Downright
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          a red carded player suffers all the minuses of his team mates.

          only fair as he's at fault

    2. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      yes

    3. Bod
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I don't think so

    4. Thick Of It
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yup, worst rule in the game IMO.

  17. For Fuchs Sake
    • 15 Years

    F£ck this game already!!!

  18. Vardy Gras PBFC
    • 12 Years

    The day of last season's disappointments.

  19. Bellerinmondo
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    should have been 4-0 spurs

  20. Judas
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

  21. Royal5
    • 14 Years

  22. Kip

    oh c'mon ade!

  23. Raddy
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    I suspected this would happen with Stoke. Didn't understand why people thought they would be solid at the back. They have only had like 3CS in the last 15 league games or so.

    1. Hazard for Ballon D'or
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Was tempted to go for Pieters but thought Liverpool defence would be much better so went for manquillo. Not sure if he will play he though that Moreno is lb

  24. Mílanista

    Stoke lost their man advantage when they brought Bojan on.

    1. Adam
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      It was a change they needed to make. They've created nothing this half.

  25. Sponge-worthy
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Yo lamela...fpl Rules!!

  26. Chu Young Ping Pong
    • 13 Years

    Double Stoke cs gone.

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Lol

  27. Bellerinmondo
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    eriksen, nice

  28. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Ade you muppet, would have been Eriksen assist too

  29. Hazard for Ballon D'or

    11 years, 4 months ago

    Every year I tip the wrong team. Last year I tipped Norwich and Sunderland and this year stoke 🙁
