There’s something special about a Gameweek under lights and, even with just four matches to get things underway, there is excitement and expectation in equal measure.

Tonight’s eight teams boast enough Fantasy talent to deliver significant points – not least Harry Kane and Romelu Lukaku, who will doubtless be the top two captain picks on show yet again.

The smart money – and the armbands from active Fantasy managers – are likely to be with the Spurs striker, as Kane revisits the ground where he fired an incredible 31 point return in 2016/17.

His owners will gladly accept a more modest tally this time around, though having scored six of his nine goals on the road this season, double-figures could again be within reach.

Less is expected of Lukaku, who will collide with a Watford defence that has kept back-to-back clean sheets. The Belgian’s form remains a concern, with his recent strike against Newcastle his only goal in the last six Gameweeks.

Elsewhere, the big news from The Hawthorns is that Newcastle United’s goalkeeper, Rob Elliot, has been dropped from Rafa Benitez’s line-up. Priced at 4.0 initially this season, Elliot boasts an ownership of 26.4% who must now turn to their reserve option. For the managers who also own Crystal Palace’s Julian Speroni, there is no reserve option, ensuring they look set to be forced to market ahead of Gameweek 15.

Talking of Palace, news from their “local derby” with Brighton finds Christian Benteke in the starting line-up for the visitors, with cut-price midfielder Ruben Loftus Cheek perhaps moving to a No 10 role to accommodate his return.

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

    Tottenham are shocking today. As a Kane (C) I'm disappointed.

    He's not even playing that bad. Rose and Aurier are horrible as wingbacks and Sissoko cannot finish

    1. OldBenKenobi
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      The wingbacks are definitely bad luck

  24. FPL Maldini

    Surely now would be a good time to give Lukaku a rest and Zlatan sone game time

    1. shotgunnufc - MANIAC

      you’d think so with the game in the bag

  25. EmreCan Hustle

    I think Spurs players are not happy. Eriksen certainly looks tired of Kane's selfishness. No one likes Son.

    1. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years

      Son better than Sissoko

    Eriksen misses from 4 yards. Sums it up
