Having been backed by 13.5% of FPL managers, Romelu Lukaku’s blank puts extra emphasis on the three o’clock kick-offs, with Chelsea’s Diego Costa under the spotlight.
The Spaniard is fit to start and is the top Gameweek 30 captain pick with 14.4% trusting the Blues striker with the armband. Eden Hazard – supported by 4.5% – is also fit to start for Antonio Conte’s side, who deploy Pedro at wing-back in the absence of the injured Victor Moses.
Elsewhere, Spurs’ trip to Burnley will also be under focus.
Mauricio Pochettino makes some significant changes to his line-up, with Kyle Walker, the top owned FPL defender, rested to the bench with Gameweek 31 in mind. Son Heung-min sits alongside him having returned from international duty with South Korea – Vincent Janssen earns a rare start, then.
Leicester City’s recent revival will be tested by a stubborn Stoke City at the King Power Stadium, with striker Jamie Vardy backed by 197,000 new owners as the top transfer target for Gameweek 30 – 4.5% have the armband with the Foxes marksman today.
Manchester United’s depleted squad take on West Brom at Old Trafford, with, bizarrely, Gareth McAuley the top owned asset on show. Antonio Valencia, supported by 187,000 new owners, will be under scrutiny in this one.
Finally, Hull City host West Ham United at the KCOM and Sunderland make the trip to Watford.
Troy Deeney is benched by Walter Mazzarri at Vicarage Road ahead of three matches in a week – a major disappointment fo the 53,000+ who made him their transfer ahead of today’s deadline.
