Matchday Insight : Week 22


Firstly, here's wishing everyone a very happy new year !!

Its been a long wait to this matchday in particular after we got the news of it being a double header for Chelsea and Southampton. For those who have just joint us, let me inform you that there is an extra match this matchday as Chelsea play Southampton at home on Wednesday.

Most of us must have changed our teams a million times in the last week with an overload of Chelsea and Southampton players and it does get tricky here as Benitez is famous for his rotaions. Chelsea have surplus of players for each spot.

Chelsea have had a terrible run in the recent 2 - 3 months. In the last 14 games they have managed just 4 wins, 4 draws and 6 loses. They have lost both of their last 2 home games ( against QPR and Swansea ). However on the plus side, on their day they can score as many goals they like. Just like the 8-0 against Aston Villa and 5-1 against Southampton.

Southampton on the other hand are coming into this match day with 2 draws in the last 2 away matches in the premier league.

Irrespective, more upside here with these two teams playing twice and we shall look at the best options to pick from these teams.

Lets get straight to our best picks this week :

Matchday Insight: Week 20

Outnumbered?.....I doesn't think so.
A well below par week for most of us the last time out as we all felt the pinch of rotation during the festive period by managers, or for that matter no rotation for Dzeko owners. These write ups are coming thick and fast, which is generally the case this time of year. Hopefully this weekend will fill a bit more in control with things clearer than the midweek matches. The matches after the jump.

Matchday Insight : Week 18



Back after a long break from writing an article here and looking forward to a busy Christmas period for us fantasy managers as matchdays come by rather quickly.

It was good to see QPR register their first win of the season, hopefully it should get them on track from here on. Cazorla once again proved his talent with a hatrick against Reading. Liverpool clearly seem to be struggling to keep up with the top.

Looking forward to Week 18, lets get to the best matchups :

Matchday Insight: Week 17

Tada!....I'm Back!!
Hello everyone, I'm just going to start by saying that when it comes to double gamers its always safer to go with them rather than single gamers as they have a chance to redeem themselves even if they screw up in one match just like this last week.....Or I could be totally wrong as the Sunderland vs Reading match hasn't taken place yet. Anyway moving on from there we are back with everyone playing a single match with two teams totally absent and those being Southampton and Chelsea with the latter in japan playing in the club world cup. Lets see what we have instore for this weekend.

Matchday Insight: Week 16

...And he walks in your team...Shorely!

Another weekend of fantasy dawns upon us bringing with it two mediocre fantasy teams playing two matches. Those being Sunderland and Reading. The choice of going for a single gamer is a bit tougher than normal as there are no "great match ups" to look out for. Anyways, we will try and work out the best strategy with what we have and aim for a good score. Lets take a deeper look at the games.

Without wasting much time, lets get straight to the easy matchups and picks for week 15 :
