White Hart Lane is our first port of call in a Sunday that is set to shape many of our Gameweeks.

As expected, Harry Kane leads the line for the hosts again after shrugging off a minor knock in time to entertain Everton. The Tottenham frontman has been handed the armband by 5.6% of Fantasy Premier League managers on the back of seven goals in his last three home outings.

Five double-figure hauls in seven in front of his own supporters suggests that Christian Eriksen will have a major say in the outcomes of today’s 1.30pm encounter, whilst Dele Alli was back in the goals after Mauricio Pochettino returned to a 3-4-2-1 set-up against Stoke last time out.

Perhaps surprisingly, Romelu Lukaku is also backed by 5.6% for Sunday’s early fixture despite failing to score in each of his last four road trips.

Up against a defence with a single goal against in their previous seven at the Lane, his prospects of points perhaps took a turn for the worse after both Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen recovered from knocks to take their place in an unchanged Spurs XI.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Kane goal and cleanies for Coleman and Baines please. Oh wait..

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Think the cleanies are more valuable given Kane's ownership

    2. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Possible, Coleman and Baines to get substituted and Kane scores a late goal

    3. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Baines and Coleman off after 60, tactical. Kane brace at minute 72, 86 and 92.

      Sounds good?

    4. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Coleman and Baines taken off at 61 minutes following injuring themselves celebrating Coleman's goal and Baines' assist to make it 1-0. Simple 😉

      Eve Def's off at 61.....kane hatty

    Bit worried about the whole selling Eriksen for a hit thing

    1. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Me too, but with Alli.

    2. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Same here but with Kane, sacrificed him for Kun

    3. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Same, but on paper my move looked okay. Sterling -4 vs Sunderland and Stoke should outscore Eriksen vs Everton.

    4. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Me too but it was the only way to ensure I didn't take a -12 next week

    5. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Didn't do it for a hit but still worried. Hoping for a boring one honestly

  5. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Is it worth taking a -8 hit to get 11 starters out this week or is a -4 hit sufficient? Would also help tidy up my squad and the -8 hit would be reduced if they all bag some points this week and potentially beyond. The three transfers are:

    1. Aguero > Llorente
    2. Amat > Mawson
    3. Phillips > Mane

    Heaton
    Mawson - Brunt - McAuley - Coleman
    Siggie - Mane - King
    Lukaku - Llorente - Carroll

    Bench: Pickford - Pieters - Eriksen - Sanchez

    1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      If you can get 10 with a -4 then do that

      1. Jet5605
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks.

        Of the three transfers which do you think would be best? Mane and Llorente?

        1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Yes

  6. diesel001

    9 years, 1 month ago

    Hopefully Everton's 3 can win the midfield battle. Would help if Davies came back and got involved to stiffen it up.

          Was he ever? Always Eriksen, except last match where he got lucky with the long range one. Teams are prepared for that now. After he scored the goal the next free kick in a similar position was closed down.

        Sometimes I forget how young Kane & lukaku are! Only 23 both of them, not hit their prime

        1. Sim Simma
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I think you'll find that 23 is a prime number
