With the title race back on, we turn to five Premier League encounters to keep the Gameweek rolling, before Manchester City look to maintain the Chelsea chase with three points against Everton at the Etihad.

Fantasy managers will be concentrating their attention on two venues in particular, with QPR hosting fellow strugglers Burnley at Loftus Road, whilst Arsenal and Alexis Sanchez pay visit to the Britannia to take on Stoke.

Sanchez is undoubtedly the most popular asset on show before Sergio Aguero takes to the turf this evening, as the Chilean looks to extend his run of seven goals in as many league outings. The Gunners are also chasing a third straight clean sheet, although Mark Hughes’ Potters are unlikely to give them an easy ride – the big team news from the Britannia is that Olivier Giroud earns a recall, with Danny Welbeck benched.

As for QPR, Charlie Austin will be carrying the hopes of both Harry Redknapp and a horde of Fantasy managers as he looks to continue a rich vein of scoring form when the Clarets pay visit. Danny Ings will be one to watch for the visitors in a battle of the budget strikers down at Shepherds Bush.

Elsewhere this afternoon, Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen take increased ownership into the White Hart Lane encounter with Crystal Palace, whilst at Anfield, Liverpool (with Steven Gerrard benched again) will look to build on the 3-1 midweek win over Leicester with another three points against visiting Sunderland. Hull City’s Humberside date with West Brom rounds off the day’s offerings, before we take the trip to Manchester to catch the latest episode of the Aguero show.

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

    Why the ref sent Austin off, was it a bad foul ?

    1. Saniul
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Two yellows, nothing spectacular.

  2. Sif
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Wish we knew about Debuchy so could do a straight swap.

    1. UnderstandablyDistraught
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      not ready

  3. Saniul
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    So, who is the best Chambers replacement we are looking at?
    5.0-ish available, no way he's staying in my team.

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

    11 pts from 6 players and captain played

    I was due a bad gameweek but this is just cruel lol

    1. Saniul
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Right week for a bad GW.
      Even the people with 'good' gameweek will score 9-10 points more than you.

      1. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        That is probably not even a bad gameweek

      2. Wishdom Teeth
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

    2. Owd Big 'Ed
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      10 from 5 here, but I don't really care because my team just won 3-2.

      Real football > Fantasy football.

      1. Delhidynamo
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Lol. And my team lost 3-2

        That made it worse

  5. Jump in Micah
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    1. Owd Big 'Ed
      • 16 Years

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

  8. Nobodinho
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    13 points from Lloris and Wisdom...on the bench.

    1. Jump in Micah
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Why would loris be on your bench?!?!?!

    2. FISSH
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      if you bench Lloris when they play Crystal Palace at home you don't deserve a clean sheet. Moron.

      1. Guidinho
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Moron a bit harsh but agree there can't be many more plum fixtures than Palace at home.

    25 from 7.

    The amazing thing is that nearly half of those points have come from my ill-advised doubling up on WBA GK/DEF

    Aguero©, Clyne, Downing & Yaya to go.

      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      If you have a playing keeper I'd keep Krul til the Jan WC, or at least not get him out for a hit. The rest yes.

  25. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    What are people doing with Chambers / Fabregas / Eriksen?

    1. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      and Austin?

    2. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Just selling Chmabers for Zab.

      You ?

      1. MJ6987
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Selling Chambers - not sure who though

    3. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Selling chambers, but who for?

    4. Saniul
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Doing with Eriksen? What must you do with Eriksen?

      1. MJ6987
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I meant Austin

    5. Seamy
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Benching one and Selling one. Dont have Eriksen

      Not sure who is going yet though

    6. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Chambers->O'Shea probably.

  26. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Austin being banned next could be a blessing for. Didn't fancy playing him against Everton (A) and Baine's CS potential is higher now.

    Taylor - Spurs (H) in!

    1. BuK II
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Instead of switching him out I might upgrade my 5 mid to cover his away games. QPR are terrible on the road.

  27. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Who's the best chambers replacement?

    1. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I'm getting Zab.

  28. ZTF
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone have Taylor, Austin and Chambers?

  29. walkman666
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Chambers > Yun (to create funds to...)
    Fab > Haz

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Looks good

    2. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
