Gameweek 3 gets underway at the Vitality Stadium as Bournemouth entertain Manchester City in the 12.30pm kick-off.

The visitors have made a somewhat underwhelming start to the new season, netting just three times in the first couple of matches.

As a result, Pep Guardiola has made a number of alterations, with the decision to drop Sergio Aguero to the bench a major surprise.

With the battle for our three-man frontlines intensifying, the Argentine’s absence could trigger big sales over the upcoming international break.

Team-mates Gabriel Jesus and Kevin De Bruyne were sold by 218,000 and 117,00 FPL managers respectively last week after serving up back-to-back blanks. But a return to a lone striker system now looks set to force a reassessment of City’s attack.

For the Cherries, Eddie Howe unleashes Josh King alongside Jermain Defoe for the first time as they go in search of their first league goal of the season.

The hosts’ Ryan Fraser also drops out as Howe opts for a wing-back system, with Charlie Daniels and Adam Smith on the flanks.

    David Silva has created 9 chances in the Premier League this season; Mesut Özil (10) is the only player with more.

      Interesting how both teams have started real badly - both need a result.

      I am personally hoping to see a 1-1.

        City have got 4 points. How is that a bad start.

    • 11 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Sold KdB and benching Daniels.

    Also got rid of Danilo a week earlier.

    Its almost as if I'm trying to ignore this fixture.

  11. FPL Emu
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Haha, took a hit to go Jesus -> Firmino.

    probably the worst FPL transfer ever as it turned out.

    If Jesus blanks this fixture, it'll top the resurrection

    Chances that Aguero manages to burn a hole in the back of Pep's head using a death stare?
