Trippier could punish impatient sellers as Ings starts for Southampton

Kieran Trippier (£6.0m) could punish the 163,000+ managers who sold him for Gameweek 2 as he was handed his first start of the season against Fulham.

He remains the most popular Fantasy Premier League defender, with 22.2 percent ownership, even after missing out on Gameweek 1.

There is a full debut for Southampton’s Danny Ings (£5.5m) at Goodison Park, after he impressed in his cameo appearance at the end of Gameweek 1.

Hosts Everton went with Mason Holgate (£4.5m) at centre-back in the place of the suspended Phil Jagielka (£4.5m), while Leighton Baines (£5.5m) started at left-back once again.

Jonny Evans (£5.0m) is to make his bow in Leicester City colours today coming back from injury to replace Wes Morgan (£4.5m) in the starting line-up alongside Harry Maguire (£5.5m). Not surprisingly, Jamie Vardy (£9.0m) starts up front.

Ruben Neves (£5.1m) is Saturday’s most transferred in player with 388,000+ new owners, and he starts for Wolves at the King Power Stadium.

Bournemouth have named an unchanged XI for their trip to West Ham while Javier Hernandez (£6.5m) starts up front next to Marko Arnautovic (£7.0m).

EVERTON XI: Pickford; Baines, Holgate, Keane, Coleman; Schneiderlin, Gueye; Richarlison, Sigurdsson, Walcott; Tosun

SOUTHAMPTON XI: McCarthy, Cedric, Hoedt, Stephens, Bertrand, Romeu, Lemina, Ward-Prowse, Redmond, Austin, Ings

LEICESTER XI: Schmeichel; Chilwell, Maguire, Evans, Pereira; Mendy, Ndidi; Gray, Maddison, Albrighton; Vardy

WOLVES XI: Patricio; Bennett, Coady, Boly; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; Jota, Jimenez, Costa

SPURS XI: Lloris, Trippier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Davies, Dier, Eriksen, Lucas, Dele, Kane

FULHAM XI: Fabri, Fosu-Mensah, Chambers, Le Marchand, Bryan, Seri, Anguissa, Cairney, Kamara, Sessegnon, Mitrovic.

WEST HAM: Fabianski; Masuaku, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Zabaleta; Anderson, Noble, Wilshere, Snodgrass; Arnautovic, Chicharito.

BOURNEMOUTH: Begovic; Daniels, Aké, S Cook, A Smith; Fraser, Surman, Gosling, Brooks; King, Wilson

    Jota and Costa subbed. Traore and Bonatini on.

  9. The Yorkshire Pirlo
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Jota can do one.

    Maddison or Richarlison?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Richarlison top priority, but Madisson could be just as fruitful.

  10. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Jota rested for City?

    Is hart an option for next week.

    Being stupid I went for Patricio and now I have 3 problems in king,jota,Patricio..2ft I want to get rid of Patricio ...so who looks best 4.5 bet for 2-3 weeks??

    1. M♤rvin
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      I have the exact same 3 clowns in my team. Hurts doesn't it.

      1. Srv210
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Seriously man, thought king as a punt who'll go crazy like last season...big mistake

    2. DantheManinaPan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      I'm also wondering. Patricio my only flop so happy to use my FT on him - if Hennessey is nailed I might switch to him

  15. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Wouldn't sell Jota before City, he will enjoy the space behind City's high defensive line.

    1. Maddi Son
      • 6 Years

      Giving bad advice for your own gain, classy.

    2. Deulofail

      Yeah, without the ball

  16. Ha.

    1. Hooky
      • 9 Years

      Rico is on the bench

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Good effort 😛

    2. Costa Nostra
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Me too.

    3. Richd
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Had Jota and rico last week 😉 unlucky pal.

  18. AC Me Rollin

    When will Jota drop and when will Maddison rise...... asking for a friend

    1. Pumpkinhead
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      lol how is anyone suppose to know?

    2. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Jota might drop by FT with all the rage transfers!

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      I doubt Maddison will rise.

  19. olidooley
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Jota, Cairney, King TO Richarlison, Maddison, Kamara (-4)

    Leaves me Kun and Arnie up front

  20. JustPark
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    But Maddison's goal was lucky though.

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Actually looks like doing something though

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        (In comparison to Jota)

      2. JustPark
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        But less threatening than last week though.

  21. Differential C (Mark)
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Alli shot saved!

  22. Richd
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Jota has bad fixtures now anyway. Helps us do a transfer with confidence and get him some nice price drops.

  23. Make United Great Again
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    A. Arnie
    B. Maddison

    1. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      A

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      You have Jota and King, right?

  24. Emiliano Sala
    • 7 Years

    Fml
    Score mitro please

    1. AC Me Rollin
      • 5 Years

      This

  25. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    FPL dead for anyone else - what’s the point?

  26. windowview
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    I thought Wolves were a ready made Premier League side

  27. Skalla
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Wow Jota off , not sure how I could start this week worse except maybe with Kenedy. So far zero points from 4 lol!

  28. MidTableFantasy
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    A. Neves
    B. Kante

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      B

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Have a niggly feeling they'll be close on points all year, but of course Kante will get more CSs.

      Will have to see how the slight position change affects Kante, but Neves is a tiny bit more exciting with some set pieces.

  29. TAT
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Maddsion will get a price rice surely? Looking at making an early -4 if that happens.

  30. Solly The Seagull
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Kun+Jota-->Maddison+Aubameyang for free?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Kun hasn’t even n played

    2. Sleep Talk
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      I'm looking at the exact same transfers
