Dugout Discussion – Leicester City vs Man City

Gameweek 15 rolls on with the tea-time kick-off at the King Power Stadium, as champions Leicester City host Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

Both of these sides are in decline as a source of Fantasy talent, with the Foxes failing to attract interest all season with both Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy unable to live up to the inflated prices following last season’s triumphs.

As for City, the capitulation of Sergio Aguero last weekend has certainly reduced our level of investment. However, Kelechi Iheanacho is again given the opportunity to deputise in the Argentine’s absence – he starts today having been drafted in by more than 210,000 Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of this morning’s deadline.

Elsewhere for City, there are further teamsheet surprises from Guardiola, who keeps both Raheem Sterling and Yaya Toure on the bench, with Ilkay Gundogan retaining a starting role.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      I like Llorente but next 2 away could be tough - WBA and Middlesbrough are decent at home. Carroll has the juicier fixtures short term, so I'd punt on him if he looks like starting against Burnley.

    Now 31 (-4) with 6 left and captain played. Not bad I guess. Haz, Firm, Kane, Costa, Vert, & Cedric too.

    Minus 4 for Walcott to Sanchez, minus 8 for Aguero to dislocated shoulder, minus 12 for shoulder to 1 point rotation risk. Fuchs keeping a clean sheet the first time this century the week i lose him. Morphine please nurse...

        This 3rd striker list is very hot and differential. Could make and break your team over this period.

        My personal list is:
        Origi
        Llorente
        Rondon

        Still none the wiser.
