Fantasy managers have three matches to feast their eyes on today before the international break is upon us. Up first, Spurs welcome Liverpool to the Lane as Mauricio Pochettino’s side attempt to pick up a third straight win under the new man in charge.

A host of players from both sides are on the radar this afternoon, with Christian Eriksen, Erik Lamela, Nacer Chadli and Emmanuel Adebayor key to the hosts’ chances of avenging the 5-0 humiliation that led to Andre Villas-Boas’ departure last year. Liverpool are poised for a superb run of fixtures after this match and while Daniel Sturridge and Raheem Sterling are the obvious targets, Mario Balotelli’s display will be eagerly analysed.

Villa and Hull go head-to-head in the other 1.30pm kick-off, with Paul Lambert’s side seeking a third successive shut-out before the fixtures take a real turn for the worse.

In the final match of the Gameweek, Leicester entertain Arsenal at 4pm. Aaron Ramsey rolls up to the King Power Stadium looking to net for the third successive league match, whilst Alexis Sanchez is also finding his form – having scored the winner against Besiktas in midweek, the Chilean’s confidence is on the rise.

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

    Chadli is looking to play very high...much more interesting than Eriksen or Adebayor! Could be great value if nailed on...?

      A nice 2-1 win with A hull goal from elmohamady would be perfect,

    It was so obvious that Hull won't keep CS without Chester.

    1. LOCO ABREU
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      no

    2. Caine & Co.

      fab

    3. connell83
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Hazard. Do you seriously think Remy will challenge Costa's place? Only other option Cheski have is Drogba.

    4. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      short term fab but later Hazard

  17. Epic Fail

    Plenty of time for Sterling to get a red card. Here's hoping.

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

      next one is hull v west ham. exciting...

  18. FF Dirtbag

    1. Mr_Partridge
      • 11 Years

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

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

          So no foundation at all

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

    i think johsnon would be a decent wingback in a 352 or as a LB but not RB

    1. gdog2244
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      LOL

  21. Mr_Partridge

    Ok, who told me to captain Ramsey ahead of Weimann? 😡 😆

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      You shouldn't listen to trolls. Weimann (c) was a no brainer 😉

      • 14 Years

      I was up for Wiemann © if there was a monday game to cover the risk 🙁

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        You should have replied with Weimann and we would both have done it 😉

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

      You're not playing the game right if you captain Weimann over Ramsey do

  23. Parm
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Has Hutton scored yet?

    1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 13 Years

      Had a hat trick disallowed.

  24. vhanoi
    • 13 Years

    Some of us quietly brought Weimann into our team this week, don't you know...

    *smug, smug*

    3. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Quietly....??
      Costa was squealing like a pig when you subbed him out!

      1. Colonel Wasabi
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

        Haha!

    4. Soidisant
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      My rival did it and then played him ahead of Costa due to the injury so I laughed. Not so much now

  25. Dr. Rog
    • 16 Years

    On current form, Arsenals next 4 are horrendous
    MCI avl TOT che

    1. Mr_Partridge
      • 11 Years

      12 pts in the bag

    2. LOCO ABREU
      • 13 Years

      Rambo or Mata to Sterling?

      1. Mr_Partridge

      They will win at least 2 of those do

  26. Long Juan Silva
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Manquillo is crap. Plenty of space to take the ball up the right and he just passes it back every time

    1. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      What? He's got to let Gerrard play some slick 20 yard passes to him to look good.

      1. Long Juan Silva
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        🙂

    2. piquiblanco
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      He's playing it safe for now. Looked nice vs Borussia, obviously he will do nice in attack.

  27. Dr. Rog
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Should I sell my children for Sterling and a 4pt hit?

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

      i'd do it for joe allen

  28. gdog2244
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Ade can't deal with a slide tackle, Lovren's got him like 6 times with it

  29. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Lovren defending well so far
