Who do we buy, sell, and put as captain? We'll get to that after going through this week's fixtures. Manchester City travel to Kingston to face Hull City. The Sky Blues are unbeaten in their last seven Premier League away games, but they haven't won away at Hull City in the league since their first ever meeting in October 1909. Since then, the Tigers have won four and drawn three of the seven home meetings. Everton entertain Cardiff City at Goodison Park as the Toffees make a push towards Europe. The last time Cardiff City played Everton at Goodison Park in the league was in April 1962 and the Toffees won 8-3. Rock-bottom Fulham face Newcastle United at Craven Cottage, hoping to get their season back on track. There have been five goals in the 85th minute or later in the last five Premier League games between the two sides. Norwich travel to Southampton this week, desperately seeking a win to pull clear of the battle against relegation. Five of the last seven meetings in all competitions between Southampton and Norwich have ended as a draw. The Saints and the Canaries are the two sides to have let the most points slip from winning positions this season, with each dropping 15. Stoke City host West Ham at the Britannia Stadium.
