Suarez's class and good form make him a blue chip while Michu has to get scoring sometime sooner than later.
It's the 30th match-day at the Premier League this season and the good news for all fantasy managers is that all the 20 teams will be in action unlike the last week-end.
Play begins with Everton hosting Manchester City at Goodison Park before Swansea welcome Arsenal and Manchester United take on Reading at home in Saturday action. On Sunday, Tottenham will hope to shrug off their loss at the hands of Liverpool as they take on Fulham last week before Chelsea look to build on their FA Cup performance against Manchester United when they play West Ham.
The one reason I feel that it could be one of the game-changing weeks going into the last couple of months of the season, simply because of some big goal-scoring opportunities.
Manchester City, for instance, enter the game against the Toffees having drilled five in their FA Cup quarter-final, admittedly against a Championship side, Barnsley. But given their recent goal-scoring travails this will almost come as a relief for Robert Mancini. And for those fantasy owners who either have City strikers and midfielders or intend to get one in. Carlos Tevez's poor off the field luck aside - he had to be bailed out after being arrested for driving - he has shown some remarkable recent form and could be one player to watch out.
There is one other player I might advise you to consider. In the absence of Sergio Aguero, who has been ruled out of this clash because of a knee injury, there's a good chance that Edin Dzeko not only starts but also hammer in a couple - especially given how regularly the Everton defence has conceded this season.
Then there's the Southampton v Liverpool encounter which could see a bucketful of goals, given the Reds' scoring form and the Saints' rather porous defence. Southampton may be coming off a goalless draw against Norwich but they did concede nine goals in their previous four games and unless the likes of Luke Shaw and the rest of their back-line can come up with something better, Liverpool could run them over.
Luis Suarez, with 31 goals for Liverpool this season, is scoring 'em as a hobby these days and while some may argue that the glut has to end some time, it may not happen against the Saints. Get him in if you haven't been smart enough to do that so far and park him in your team - like a blue chip stock, he will still give you the returns you desire.
Swansea host Arsenal and I will continue to back Michu despite his recent drought given that the Spanish had scored a brace against the Gunners in their reverse fixture. So unless the Gunners can find a way to thwart him like some of the other teams in recent times, I will be going with Michu to be a player to carry. Of course there is always a Christian Benteke you can opt for against QPR, in another battle for the relegation spot. Benteke scored last week but QPR are going in with successive wins under their belt, thanks to the way their defence has done - I could, instead, opt to play a QPR defender.
Christopher Samba could be a decent buy given his lower costs and the fact that he could get a goal or so sometime down the line with his abilities during free-kicks and corners.
Manchester United could have a lot of pent-up frustration when they host Reading, who enter the game without a frontline coach. Now Robin van Persie is an all-time favourite for me, which is probably why I am biased towards the fact that I feel his loss of form could be a short-lived one. Van Persie did not start in United's FA Cup tie against Chelsea and looked below-par when he came on later in the 63rd minute.
There is always that risk that Sir Alex Ferguson might look to rest him but gauging the mood in the camp there is a chance that the manager gives him a free rein against a team not quite known for their defensive play. A goal or three here and suddenly we could be looking at a changed Dutchman - something that should augur well for United for the rest of the season.
The one other match that interests me is the Wigan v Newcastle encounter. The Latics have undergone a few strange weeks of football. In their last five games, a total of 20 goals have been scored, including 11 from Wigan while Newcastle have themselves not been too trigger-shy. And going by how M Sissoko shown good form since his time at the club, I suggest that football fantasy managers should get him in.
