Gameweek 20 Fantasy Preview

Cesc Fabregas
Lead the Gunners to win easily against Chelsea.
On contrary to last weekend, snow damaged me a lot this gameweek with figures from the city of Liverpool like Torres and Tim Cahill all absent. Compounded with Nani's illness, I scored the worst gameweek score this season.

Credits to Arsenal for easing a 3-1 victory against Chelsea and making the latter suffer their worst league run since 1999 - six points from eight matches. The Blues' title hunt is officially over - they are now six points behind with one match disadvantage.

A friendly reminder: remember to top up Liverpool players (perhaps Blackpool as well) as they will have two gameweek doubles on January, summing a total of six league matches on the first month of 2011.




PART I: PRE-MATCH ANALYSES
Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres
Will they fire up against one of the league's worst defences?
All Games
  • Man City v Aston Villa (2-1) - City has just settled their internal problems while the Villans are facing a downhill fall.
  • Stoke City v Fulham (2-0) - The home team obviously has better form.
  • Sunderland v Blackpool (2-0) - The Black Cats will transfer all their frustrations on the Seasiders.
  • Tottenham v Newcastle (3-1) - Expect demolition from the home side.
  • West Brom v Blackburn (2-1) - I don't think Steve Kean can fill up the boots of Sam Allardyce.
  • West Ham v Everton (1-1) - West Ham will strive to continue their victory but that is too hard against Tim Cahill's team.
  • Birmingham v Man Utd (1-2) - United will be expecting a tough challenge but they should make it through.
  • Chelsea v Bolton (2-0) - This should finally end the Blues' humiliating record.
  • Wigan v Arsenal (1-2) - N'Zogbia and Rodallega are too lonely to face the attacking flairs from the Gunners.
  • Liverpool v Wolves (3-0) - The Reds are well rested for two weeks and will be ready to eat Wolves as their starter of their festive meal.



PART II: SQUAD SELECTIONS

A perfect return on last gameweek. Will his goal-scoring form continue?
Captain Picks

  • Torres - Wolves are too easy for him.
  • Van der Vaart - Newcastle's defence is easy for him as well.
  • Drogba - Goals will be much needed for him to initiate the rebound of the Blues.
Buys-In
  • Liverpool players - A stunning six Premier League fixtures on January which includes two gameweek doubles.
  • Chelsea players - Now that the toughest run of their season is over, you can expect them to bounce back.
  • Van der Vaart - An amazing return tells you that you simply can't drop him from your squad.
Sells-Out
  • Fulham players - Mark Hughes' position is on danger.
