The Foxes will be looking to complete the most unlikely of triumphs in claiming the Premier League title on Super Sunday, live on Sky Sports 1 HD.However, Charlie and Thommos focus will be on landing £1,000 for their charity of choice in their winner-stays-on Soccer Saturday pundit battle.Charlie ended Matt Le Tissiers four-match winning streak last weekend as his VI, consisting of four defenders and a goalkeeper, racked up more than twice as many points as Le Tiss in Sunderlands 0-0 draw with Arsenal.With no player values, formations or position requirements in Sky Sports Fantasy Six-a-Side, the pundits can pick whoever they want except for only one of the four Elite Players.Heres who the pundits have selected for the Old Trafford clash…Phil Thompsons teamRiyad Mahrez - Im sure Charlie will go for him as well as hes obviously the main man, with more goals and assists combined than any other Premier League player this season.Marcus Rashford - Im backing him to score this weekend in my Sky Bet tip because hes proved that the big occasion isnt something that fazes him. Riyad Mahrez will be looking to toast his PFA Player of the Year award with another fine dispaly at Old Trafford Anthony Martial - Hes Uniteds best attacking player and will provide a real test for Danny Simpson, one youd expect him to get the better of.Danny Drinkwater - Hell have lots of time on the ball from a deeper role so Im expecting him to guarantee me plenty of pass completion, tackling and interception points.Michael Carrick - Hell be at hub of everything and with United likely to have the majority of possession hell probably see the ball more than anyone else.Wes Morgan - Hell win every header and is always a threat from set-pieces. Fantasy Six-A-Side points scoring breakdown Charlie Nicholas teamNGolo Kante - Thommo will be expecting me to pick Mahrez but Im going to go against the majority and pick a player who is guaranteed to land me a healthy points total with passes, tackles and interceptions.Anthony Martial - He might not have scored as many goals as United fans might have hoped but hes scored important ones, so I think hell be relishing the occasion on Sunday.Wes Morgan - Im always a believer of scripts in football and it would be fitting to see him score another important winner at Old Trafford. Anthony Martial fired United into the FA Cup final last weekend Robert Huth - Hes an even bigger threat from set-pieces and I think Leicester have a chance of getting a clean sheet.Timothy Fosu-Mensah - This lad is going to be a star and is an absolute athlete. He goes in as my third defender so hopefully another low-scoring affair will help me see off Thommo.Michael Carrick - Ive always been a big far of Carricks and you can guarantee hell complete more passes than anyone else.  Fantasy Six-a-Side Who makes your VI?

On Tuesday, Ottawa placed forward Cory Conacher and defenceman Joe Corvo on waivers as trade rumours swirl around the Senators. Nike Roshe Run Flyknit Trainers . Argentina winger Ezequiel Lavezzi and France midfielder Blaise Matuidi scored, with star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic setting up both despite having a poor game by his high standards. Forward Eduardo gave Ajaccio the lead in the sixth minute after being set up by right winger Benjamin Andre, and the Corsican side looked comfortable in the first half, with the lively Johan Cavalli causing problems with his probing runs from midfield. http:///...ke-roshe-run-fb.html . -- The Missouri Tigers might not have a roster full of superstars. NAPA, Calif. -- Scott Piercy broke the course record at Silverado first set by Johnny Miller in 1976. Jon Rahm of Spain made a hole-in-one on his fifth shot as a PGA Tour member. Morgan Hoffmann made an albatross.The Safeway Open delivered plenty of entertainment in the first round of the new PGA Tour season.Even without Tiger Woods.A new season brought out what might be the best weather of the week at Silverado, and no one took advantage quite like Piercy. He made 12 birdies against two bogeys for a 62, which was only good for a two-shot lead over Paul Casey and Patton Kizzire.Woods was supposed to be the star attraction at the Safeway Open when he entered the tournament Friday, only to withdraw on Monday. The tournament in wine country still had a healthy crowd and was treated to a reasonable show. Phil Mickelson played in the afternoon and shot 69 after a bogey-bogey start.Rain is in the forecast the rest of the way, which is not great for the grape harvest. Or the golf.PIERCYS PUTTING: Scott Piercy is coming off one of his best seasons on the PGA Tour.At least on paper.Sure, he made $2.9 million without winning a tournament. Most of that money came from his runner-up finish to Dustin Johnson in the U.S. Open, and another runner-up finish to Johnson two weeks later at the Bridgestone Invitational.Piercy was 156th in the most important putting statistic, and his mission this season was to change that. For one round, he couldnt argue with the results. Only three of his 12 birdie putts were inside 10 feet. He made a combined 129 feet of putts.I think I made more feet of putts than I did all last season, Piercy said.He also had the course record. Miller shot his 63 on the North Course at Silverado in the 1976 Kaiser Open Invitational. Andrew Loupe and Brendan Steele each shot 63s last year. Miller never talked much about his 63 at Silverado. At least not as much as the 63 he shot at Oakmont.MICKELSONS FORECAST: Mickelson birdied the last hole for a 69, a good start for his first domestic PGA Tour event in the fall in a decade.Told about the forecast of rain, Lefty had mixed feelings.His management company runns the event (one reason hes playing) and rain wont help with the size or enthusiasm of the crowd, not to mention the clients and vendors that title sponsor Safeway is entertaining. Nike Free Run 3 Womens NZ. As for his golf? He wasnt frowning.Its unfortunate the weather isnt going to be better, but from a playing standpoint, I like playing in bad weather, he said. Ive gotten over the years to be fairly effective in it and consequently I play well in the British. So I dont mind that challenge.RAHMS ACE: Rahm hit a 7-iron from 173 yards that flew straight into the cup on the 11th hole, his second hole of the round.That it stayed in the cup was amazing.So was the fact that it was the first hole-in-one of the Spaniards career. In fact, hes never even seen an ace in person.He was playing a team event once and had to go to the bathroom, and before he came back out, someone in his group had made a hole-in-one.They dont even tell me. They wait until we get to the green, he said.Rahm opened with a 66.THE ALBATROSS: Hoffmann had 251 yards for his second shot on the par-5 18th and didnt have the right club for such a shot, so he decided to pound a 3-iron. It hopped onto the green and into the cup for an albatross.An albatross is the rarest shot in golf, and it was the third for Hoffmann. One was when he was a teenager. The other was during a practice round at the John Deere Classic two months ago.This at least was his first in competition. He shot a 70.CASEY ON A ROLL: Paul Casey opened with a 64. Just his luck, he was still two shots behind.Casey was poised to win at the TPC Boston until Rory McIlroy shot 65 in the last round. He did everything right at Crooked Stick until running into Dustin Johnson. At least this time he has three more rounds.Starting with the second FedEx Cup playoff event, Casey has averaged 67.2 over his last 13 rounds of golf. He is 50-under par during that stretch. And he has back-to-back rounds of 64, though the most recent one was just over two weeks ago at the Tour Championship. Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
