Today’s showdown in the English Premier League between now No. 2 Chelsea and No.3 Arsenal at Stamford Bridge will provide a good opportunity for the Blues to re-claim the top spot in the standings. Midfielder Deco has an excellent chance to substantially boost his FTBL score; he goes into the game with a guaranteed bonus of 2.50 points. Fantasy owners will be well-advised to consider buying him now.
Deco has an overall score of 76.96 points at the moment, a rather low score for a player of his caliber. The 2.50 points he is credited going into the encounter are a result of the loss to top-four contenders Manchester City. Deco’s overall score is likely to shoot up to 100 and even beyond, especially if the Blues win tonight. True, much will still depend on the Portugal international’s performance and the amount of game time he is given. If he scores and the Blues win, Deco will add at least 25 points, half the cost of a goal in FTBL fantasy matches.
Chelsea crushed Arsenal 3:0 in the first round of the EPL.
