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.

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

    Did son to Walcott for -4. No one predicted he would start. Anyone else?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 days ago

      We all predicted he would start to be honest

      Not for a hit but did the transfer.

      Hard luck, always the risk you take when you take out a quality player.

    Annoying.

  3. Arctic monkeys

    But he doesn't score away

  4. Clintymints

    Doing the sensible transfer doesn't work, and then doing the unsensible transfer doesn't work

    FPL unwritten rules 101

      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 days ago

    Kane cappers who missed the game will be pretty confident when they check the score.

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years

      Sad for them

  15. Zilla
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 7 days ago

    Son proving himself to be a good captaincy option, wanted to do it last week but didn't cause Kane and Salah effective ownership and bla bla bla

  16. DJDave1979
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 days ago

    Wow. That's some salvage job. If Otamendi can now just tell his manager he fancies another rest I'd get a green!

    If only I had gone Sterling>Mahrez instead of Son>Mahrez 2gw back, would have been a lot of points !
