Tottenham entertain fierce rivals West Ham in Sundayโs midday kick off, offering Fantasy managers an opportunity to scout potential candidates for the Lilywhitesโ upcoming double Gameweek 28.
Harry Kane โ whoโs only failed to score in two of his last 10 starts for Spurs โ remains the most popular forward in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) and ranked fourth in our Captain Poll this week. Meanwhile, only Arsenalโs Alexis Sanchez (12) has scored more goals from midfield than Christian Eriksen’s nine thus far – the Dane drops to the bench today, however. Moussa Dembele is also on one or two radars as a possible budget midfield prospect after serving up a goal and two assists in the last three Gameweeks.
Sam Allardyceโs men will go in search of their first league win away from Upton Park since Gameweek 14, as defensive duo Winston Reid and James Collins return from injury. In the wake of Andy Carollโs season-ending surgery, Diafro Sakho (one goal in last seven appearances) and Enner Valencia (without a goal in 13 outings) shoulder most of the goalscoring burden, and will be encouraged by the fact that Tottenham have managed just two shut-outs in the last 10 Gameweeks. Meanwhile, Stewart Downing’s ownership will want more from the 30-year-old midfielder: he’s tallied just one goal and a single assist in his last eight outings.
