The first of four remaining Double Gameweek 34 fixtures gets underway at 7.45pm as Brighton welcome Spurs to the Amex Stadium.

After a hugely underwhelming start to his pair of fixtures in Saturday’s home loss to Man City, Harry Kane has the chance to atone against a Seagulls’ defence without a clean sheet in their last 12 attempts.

The Spurs striker was second only to Mohamed Salah by the narrowest of margins (18.28% vs 18.32%) for the armband, while over 71,000+ have played their Triple Captain chip as he looks to chase down the Liverpool winger in the race for the Golden Boot.

Kane starts this evening along with Christian Eriksen, while Son Heung-min returns to the teamsheet after featuring off the bench at the weekend.

Boasting a 17% ownership, the South Korean has four goals and an assist in his last four league starts. Along with another of tonight’s starters, Serge Aurier, he was on the scoresheet in a 2-0 win at Wembley when the two sides last met in Gameweek 17.

But Dele Alli owners are left with just a two-point haul from Double Gameweek 34, as the midfielder is left out altogether ahead of Saturday’s FA Cup semi-final against Man United.

Lucas Moura earns a rare start for the visitors out wide, as does Toby Alderweireld in defence, with Davinson Sanchez the man to make way.

They’ll look to rein in the Seagulls’ Glenn Murray, who was on the scoresheet in Saturday’s loss at Crystal Palace.

The veteran is in fine form in front of his own fans, firing five goals in his last six starts at the Amex Stadium.

    Can anyone explain where Lloris bps came from? Did he suddenly get an additional pass completed to put him over a threshold or something?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Hopefully it'll change.

    2. RashFraud
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      The clearance when he slipped maybe?

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        He got 5 out of nowhere

    3. Ramboros
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      You are correct. 30 passes with 80% accuracy.

  2. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Groß (34)
    Kane (33)
    Lloris (24)
    Son (21)
    Ryan (20)

    1. GE
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Such a joke - Gross scored on a pen, Kane in open play, should give more bonus

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Did you see the Kane goal? If anyone, Son deserves more points for it. Gross had a pretty good all-round game. Kane however...

        1. GE
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          You probably right 😉 I like the Norwegian fantasy bonus system better

      2. Cookie Kid
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Lloris made less saves than Ryan too

        1. Old Man
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          fewer

      3. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Kane would have won if he didnt take on that ridiculous shot from 30 yards at the end.

      4. *Reformed-Character*
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        You are absolutely clueless

      5. TheCurseOfRaheem
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Are you serious? Did you even watch the game? Kane was awful today, 2 bonus is perfectly fine.

  3. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    86 (-4) if baps hold. Feels a bit more respectable.

    Worried about not owning lukaku though and potential smalling and alonso no-shows.

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Nice score

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Excellent score Jesus.

      Wouldn't worry about Lucrapu

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        PooKAKpoo!

    3. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Humble brag

    4. Tiki-Taka
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Awful score, i'd be very worried and concerned given your lowly performance

    5. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Rediculous score, well done

  4. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    46 with 10 (maybe) to play.

    Superb. ;(

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Please do pipe down.

      Some of us are actually really struggling this GW

  5. Fantasy Gold
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    The Premier League is truly crap.

    What an awful game.

    So much hype, 95% of the games are disgusting to watch.

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      that's what happens when the lower teams have no balls

      1. *Reformed-Character*
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Didn't watch the game then clearly

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          I knew todays game was referred to in the OP, but I'm just talking about the PL in general. Too many park the bus teams, hoping to grind out draws nowadays

    2. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      So watch something else.

      1. Fantasy Gold
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Nice response.

        If it wasn’t for FPL, I wouldn’t watch any games at all

    3. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Sky can make any game out to sound amazing. So much hype

    4. Guru Mediation
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      I thought it was quite intriguing personally

  6. FPL Pillars
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    My rival is has an unlimited supply of jam I swear.

  7. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Ryan 5 pointer, not bad for BB!

    1. Sif
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Perfectly adequate from a 4.5 bench warmer.

    2. Mysterion
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      If only they added up his saves from Palace and today 😛

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Yeah it's better than my Hennessey no points.

    7. Rash
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Keeping the faintest of hopes that San(C)hez and kaku can dramatically boost my score tomorrow

    8. JRO093
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Really salty Murray owner here. ML rival has Gross so the pen being taken off Murray cost me a swing of 13 points. I am now trailing by 12... :-/

      1. Magic Bean
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Unlucky

      2. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Murray could have missed.

        1. JRO093
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          And that would have still been better than what happened! 🙂

          1. DA Minnion (Former great)
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 17 days ago

            Not for me. I had gross. Lol.

    9. Magic Bean
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Gross 34
      Kane 33
      Lloris 24

      Final?

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Don’t think it’s final

      2. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Would be nice if Gross and Kane get 3 a piece.

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          Would be better if Kane got none.

    10. Big_Bear
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      I've had a disaster but I've got 11 left to play including my captain (Lukaku), so this is like the start of a new game week for me right?

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        No, Kane rules all

      2. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        yes

    11. Kai
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Lukaku benched hopefully or gets a RC

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Even if he plays he'll do nothing

    12. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Just need Wes Morgan to get 2pts for my BB to reach the mediocre target of 15pts I set for it in the Hot Topic a while back.

      Guaranteed 1pt + YC coming up 😎

    13. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      76 post bonus with 9 to go. Very happy with that atm!

      Pascal GOD 🙂

      1. Fantasy Gold
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        So happy for you.

      2. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years

        We'll have to take your word for it, B.F.

      3. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Kane captain?

    14. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      How many you got left to play (count captain as double). 11 here.

      1. MTPockets
          8 years, 17 days ago

          12 minus Alonso

      2. boc610
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Kane fail, happy with kaku(c) now

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          Kane scored, kaku won’t

        2. niko mate
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          Kane was still the best captain so far.

      3. Feloh
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        60 post baps with 10 to go including (c)aku.

        1. Fantasy Gold

            You seem a bit off tonight, Fantasy?

            1. Fantasy Gold
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 17 days ago

              yeah, I wonder why after the thousandth brag/score check

        Playing WC next week so am thinking Kane OUT, Jesus IN
        Would give me Jesus, Luk, Aubameyang up top
        11 players hopefully but all depends on Klopp!!
        Yes or No?

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          You’d get rid of Kane instead of Kak?
          Ok then 🙂
