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

        Pickford was sat on my bench, but will be coming off there to replace Heaton. Hoping for Pickford penalty save from Yaya attempt, followed up by Sane tapping in the rebound...

      Grrrrr. "initial foul" doesn't mean anything. If it continues inside the area it's a pen.

      Koeman playing a high line with immobile CBs like Williams.

      That's the kind of tactical genius Barcelona need.

      KDB not starting actually makes me think he may start next game as false 9.

      1. diesel001

      Kane and Spurs CS has turned this into a big red arrow so far... need something, anything, from Baines or Coleman

      Will the other Moussa Dembele come to the premiership next year? I would take him at utd as understudy for Ibra. Jose should sign VVD, a world class DM & Dembele. £110m for the three should cover it

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        The current top 5 in the league might spent £110m each too do

    26. Sims

      Mannone starting?

      1. _Gunner
