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.

    Absolute gift of 3 points from the referee. Lucky for Chelsea, City look lost without Aguero.

    No game this weekend will be as entertaining and exciting as the Hartlepool v Blyth Spartans match last night.

    Andre Marriner's performance tonight has been some of the worst reffing I've seen for some time ..

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

    Benteke will be the differential to end all differentials this week

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Red card after 5 minutes will sort that one out

      1. Hibbopotamus
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

    1. NASL Shootout
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

    4. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      You know that's good. It's all relative

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

      Anyone over 20pts should be banned from posting scores.

    6. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

    7. the cromulent one
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

  15. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years

    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

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

    If Kun's injury isn't as serious as first thought, early sellers are going to regret it.

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      He will me out for a few weeks at best months at worse

    2. Qubit
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

    1. The Light Knight
      • 14 Years

    2. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      baines actually would have been better captain than aguero this week

  23. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    What day do we think Kun/Chambers will fall?

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

      The day before you want them to

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

        If Boyd rises before Kun falls I can do Kun Boyd to Tekkers Yaya
