A busy Sunday comes to its conclusion as Leicester City host West Bromwich Albion at the King Power.

The Foxes are seeking a fourth clean sheet in six at the King Power this time around but will need to do so without the services of Kasper Schmeichel, who is ruled out with a fractured hand.

Both Robert Huth and Danny Simpson walk the Suspension Tightrope for this one, though many will be taking the chance to scout Christian Fuchs as the schedules smiles kindly on the Foxes.

With Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy devoid of form, Islam Slimani – with 20 points in three home fixtures – and Ahmed Musa, who has scored in each of the last two, have the chance to stake a claim as differentials to consider up top. Vardy’s 9% owners are left further frustrated by Claudio Ranieri’s decison to drop him to the bench today.

West Brom, meanwhile, are devoid of talisman Nacer Chadli, who underwent minor knee surgery last week. Given that the Belgian has played a part in 75% of his side’s goals since arriving from Spurs, another shut-out could be on the cards for the champions.

    2. Lecky Legs FC
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Speaking as die hard Liverpool fan I'd say he is at the moment not bad for 5th midfielder either.

    3. MrMaverick
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      No. Wijnaldum

    4. fedolefan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah, Capoue to Can is not bad.

    5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      yes, looks like a key player when milner is lb

    6. ryacoo

    Which choice?

    A) Williams to Alonso
    B) Walcott to Coutinho

    Team:
    First priority?

    Foster, Pickford
    Stones, Evans, Friend, Williams, Amat
    Walcott, Hazard, Firmino, Gundogan, Barry
    Aguero, Costa, Lukaku

      I actually think people who do this

      1 they don't get enough attention in their home lives
      Or
      2 they actually haven't got the brains to understand that it's so obvious what they are doing to us

      1. Bleach †
        • 10 Years

        Second one for the user named Penaldado I'd say 😀

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years

      I'm pretty sure my defence has scored worse. .I play with 10 me in every week

        Next game week is going to be a struggle I've currently only have 2 possible starters

        1. MrMaverick
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Yeah Im just going to have Holebas and not making any transfers

  7. The Man Pastore
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Antonio + Smith --> Gundogan + Alonso for -4pts?

    1. The Man Pastore
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      yay or nay?

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Yay

  8. Numb
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Joking apart though, wonder what the qualification score is going to be? Must be pretty high I think.

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I'm going for 64-65

    2. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Must be between 42-46

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Higher than that surely.

        1. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Its just the average that is 50. Many on FFS have scores around 50s. I dont think it would be over 50

          1. Numb
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            The average is pretty irrelevant

            1. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              Sorry. Just saw the details of the cup now. With hardly 1k people, i guess it would be set at 55

    3. KingNidge
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Between 50 and 55

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        More like it.

      2. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Think I will end up on 55 but suspect that won't be good enough as the qualifying score is usually quite high

        1. KingNidge
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          TM says top 10k is a good gauge.. its 54.2.. i imagine it will be around that

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  10. ANDER.
    • 12 Years

    Heard Martin Tyler saying Nyom had a solid game today. At least he is nailed on for Burnley then next gameweek ...

  11. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Save FT?

    Heaton / Pickford
    Vertongan / Williams / Kelly / Holebas / Kelly
    Sanchez / Firmno / Coutinho / Son / Allen
    Aguero / Lukaku / Austin

    Was thinking Son to Pedro for free, but think I could do with 3 or 4 transfers after international break to sort of my defence.

    Thoughts?

    1. EmreCan Hustle

    4. Numb

      9 years, 10 months ago

      Lovren's head is not in the right place. Worried he might have lost his place now. Walker, no idea.

      That's not even possible. TOP scorer doesn't have more than 140 I think. THIS fpl or sky?

      Im the man

  15. The Man Pastore
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Should i get rid of Holebas or Smith? Leaning towards Smith atm

    1. 824545201
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Smith defo. Holebas has more home fixtures incoming.

  16. Pompel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Weighing up on Walcott or Sanchez out for Hazard; do people reckon Sanchez at risk of being rested after internationals for GW12?

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Maybe reduced mins but with it being against United, I think he might be risked from the start.

  17. XabiAlonso
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Are people seriously going to be ditching form players to get hazard in for hits. Yesterday's points have gone and Chelsea's next 3 matches are not easy havin boro away Spurs at home followed by city away. I'd love to get him in but I think waiting a few weeks might be a better option. I've heard of people already taking firmino out for minus 4 before he played today with good fixtures still to come. Seems crazy

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Good luck getting him in at 10.5

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Aguero is 13.1

    2. Johnny 8
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      So much this. Hazard essential talk gettin' on me wick!

    3. Worzel Gummidge
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Ok, well dont get him in then. Pretty simple

    4. Postman Ty
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      No hits, just took out Sanchez. Boro will be difficult, but nothing is stopping Chelsea at this rate, they've beat better defences in United, Sot'n, and Everton by huge margins. Spurs at home is always a Chelsea win which means goals. City's defence has been poor and they're giving away errors almost every game, Hazard likely to capitalize.

      Unfortunately, Penaldo is right here, he will be way too expensive after a few weeks. I've already made that error on players like Walker this season, not happening again.

      BB are for DGW where you can play your good sgw players or maybe even DGW players like last year

        It's literally impossible to get a solid bench with the prices of players and form

    Very itchy transfer finger

    Need to keep scratching it with all those internationals coming up

  25. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Only 140 points here . Is that any good at all. Just what I didn't need before the international break.

    Oh and lol at non hazard, firmino,mane , coutino owners etc etc

    Now I'm off to carry on going through this public spurt gracefully...bye bye

      Not a good way to sign off

  26. Legomane
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    So, team in need of an overhaul:

    Cech (5.5) Heaton
    Walker Pieters Smith Collins (4.3) Kone
    Sanchez (11.1) Coutinho Mane (8.9) Gündogan Allen
    Aguero Lukaku (9.4) Wilson (6.5)

    1FT 0.1ITB

    Where do I start???....Can't believe Collins dropped again last night. Now lost 0.3 on that guy... That said, surely Wilson upgrade needs priority. Would like to claim Chelsea cover if possible, but missing price rises left right and centre...PLEASE help!!

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Wilson& Cech to Austin&Pickford?

    2. Shultan
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      That is good team! With players who have good fixtures coming up!
      With cout & mane double up i wouldn't be worried about no chelsea especialy as they do have 3 difficilt fixtures coming up

    There isn't a hair out of place on Darren Fletchers head. Did he play today?

    3 points from my defence!

    Which is the best option?

    a. Walcott, Ozil, Capoue OUT; Coutinho, Hazard, 4.5 mid IN (-8)
    b. Walcott and Capoue OUT; Coutinho and 5.1 mid IN (-4)
    c. Walcott OUT; Coutinho IN (price drop for Capoue)
