Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs Bournemouth

The Gameweek begins with what could be the key fixture as Spurs – the major source of Fantasy talent right now – host Bournemouth at White Hart Lane.

Over the past week, Fantasy managers have doubtless been scrambling to fill their three Spurs slots, with the focus switching to their buoyant attack.

Despite Dele Alli’s recent successes – with five goals in his last six Gameweeks – Harry Kane returns up front and now becomes the headline act.

Owned by just 13.2% of FPL managers ahead of today’s encounter, Kane is unlikely to remain such a differential in the coming Gameweeks, providing us with an early opportunity to cash in.

Meanwhile, in defence, Kyle Walker makes his return at right-back with an unfortunate Kieran Trippier making way. Walker was the most sold defender heading into today’s deadline, shedding 98,000+ owners but is still part of more than 33.9% of squads.

For Bournemouth, Josh King is undoubtedly the major threat. He’ll likely feature on many FPL benches today, although having already returned goals at Old Trafford and Anfield, he appears to have the fixture proof status to punish such a decision.
