After Arsenal returned to winning ways against Watford at the Emirates, Sunday’s action concludes as Bournemouth and Tottenham Hotspur go head-to head at the Vitality Stadium.

In light of a rare failure for Mohamed Salah at Old Trafford yesterday, all eyes turn to Harry Kane, the number one captain for Gameweek 30 in Fantasy Premier League.

Handed the armband by 27.3% of managers and captained by 62 of the top 100, he’s scored more goals (13) away from home than any player in the top-flight this term.

Furthermore, Kane hit a hat-trick in his only away encounter against the Cherries, back in 2015/16.

Elsewhere for the visitors, interest in Son Heung-min was on the rise after a 16-point haul against Huddersfield last week. Second only to Leroy Sane for transfers in (169,000+) for Gameweek 30, the South Korean starts again and will attempt to improve a run of just one away goal this season.

In defence, though, there’s bad news for Ben Davies’ 24% FPL owners – the Welshman is omitted from today’s squad due to “general fatigue”, ending a run of nine straight league starts. Over 663,000 acquired the left-back over the last four Gameweeks.

For Bournemouth, Josh King starts on the bench after missing most of training this week due to a neck problem.

With a home clash against West Brom as one of only four fixtures in Gameweek 31, interest in the Cherries is bound to escalate if they can deliver today.

    Short term Kane and Kun injuries will make WC in 32 pretty tricky.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I take it you didn't watch their game against Juve.

  13. DJDave1979
    • 11 Years

    Thing is that I had 10 points overnight and had only dropped 7k. I was expecting much worse. At least there's very little chance of many making huge gains.

  14. Viper
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    At least with those 2 Kane captain points, he becomes my joint second highest scorer this gameweek, just behind Walcott on 3 😆

    .

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Walcott essential

  15. Homo Neanderthalensis

    Aguero is injured!! Not even joking

      On his Twitter::

      “During yesterday’s training I had discomfort on my left knee. The clubs doctors told me I’ll be back with the team in approximately two weeks. Now is time for a full recovery”

  16. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Damn I hope Kane’s injury is not bad. Aguero out also. Salah in prime position for the golden boot if Kane is out for long

    1. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Hope he is out for good so I don't have the headache about bothering to keep playi him with those dodgy run of points this season.

  17. FPL_Hazards
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    So those who have activated their FH chip will be stuck with injured Kane and Aguero for another week. Interesting.

    2. DJDave1979

      With their huge prices, it makes no difference really because everyone else is much cheaper.

    3. Ragabolly
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      There is a break after 31, a lot of time for them to recover

  18. LǝgleSs e|even

    Kane is one soft Kant.

    I have Kun(c) Kane(vc)

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Because he's out.

    2. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Kun official account tweeted he will be out for 2 weeks

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam

    4. Viper

      • FPL_Hazards
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Injured in training

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Probably by Pep so he can play Jesus.

    6. Legomané

      If ever I needed someone to play and score big it’s this week. Come on Sterling!

      1. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Ota, KDB(c), Sterling here. Need City to destroy it

    8. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Really Spurs need a combo of Trippier and Aurier. Aurier's pace with Trippier's crossing ability

      1. John Nerdelbaum
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        and trippier's throwing in ability

    9. tm245
      • 14 Years

      Kane to Tosun was not something I thought I'd be doing this season.

      GW31 will be hard pressed to be a lower scoring gameweek than GW30.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

    11. Lukakwho
      • 8 Years

      33 points with Ota, Sterling and Choupo to play. Average or better?

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Above.

      2. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Much better. Average is low....

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        better, but back to bang average if sterling rested

        1. Lukakwho
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Hoping that with Aguero out he may play.
