The attention of the football world will be on the Cardiff City Stadium this afternoon as Leicester City play their first match since the tragic passing of chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha.

Talismanic striker Jamie Vardy (£9.0m) returns to the starting line-up after featuring as a second-half substitute against West Ham in Gameweek 10. Meanwhile James Maddison (£7.0m) appears to be deployed just behind him in a 4-4-1-1 formation.

Meanwhile, midfielder Callum Paterson (£5.2m) starts a fourth successive match as the centre-forward for Cardiff.

Likewise, Richarlison (£6.8m) is used up front for Everton, extending his run of games in that position to four in a row. Bernard (£5.9m), Theo Walcott (£6.4m) and Gylfi Sigurdsson (£7.5m) remain the attacking midfield trio behind the Brazilian.

Marko Arnautovic (£7.0m) returns to the West Ham team after missing out on Gameweek 10 with an illness. Matej Vydra (£5.8m) has been named in the Burnley side to face the Hammers for the fist time since Gameweek 7.

Everybody’s new favourite budget striker Isaac Success (£4.6m) was on the Watford teamsheet for the third match in a row, furthering his appeal.

CARDIFF CITY XI: Etheridge; Bennett, Bamba, Morrison, Ecuele Manga; Arter, Gunnarsson; Murphy, Reid, Camarasa; Paterson

    Leicester players too much down .....

    Cardiff wins here or its draw 0-0 game

    People without Arnie:

    Are you bringing him in? Are you bringing him in for a hit?

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      With his fixtures, patient managers should bring him for hit or not and keep for 15gws to reap benefits

      1. AnfieldLad
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah I’m doing it for a hit. Pickford out to make up the funds. Seems logical

    2. Unfathomable Ruination
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I have him. But for those who are considering ... look at his fixtures. Except for City in 2 weeks, his fixtures are fantastic.

    3. Lemongrab
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      In for Mitro. Wish I'd taken the hit to get him in this week

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      It’s a marathon not a sprint, if he survives this game then a simple free transfer will sufice 🙂

    5. SPorting
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Buy, buy, buy!!

    6. Lilac Breasted Roller
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Was planning on Mitro -> Arnie, but Wilson is giving me second thoughts

      If I sacrifice Aguero I could get both Arnie and Wilson and Sterling in mid

      1. Lemongrab
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I didn't see Mitro drop otherwise I would have been able to do Mitro and Ings to Wilson and Arnie :'(

  3. diesel001

    A Maddison return and the template will be moving along smoothly.

  4. Egg noodle
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    I'm getting rid of this goddamn Maddison

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Do after burnley

    2. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 8 Years

      y before burnley.After that ship

      1. Egg noodle
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Good point, will sit on it

    3. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      he is still top on baps - lol

    4. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Mad at Maddison?

  5. Scholes Out For Summer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    How's Richarlison looking? Still struggling or finally looking back in the groove as a forward?

    1. HonestBlatter
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      He recovered well from the ankle twist

  6. Maddi Son
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Weird how whenever Maddison returns, the owners are lucky. He has been the unluckiest player on the game in the past 3 weeks.

  7. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Nearly a goal for Mendy

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      1st sub here

  8. Champions united
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Plzz siggy score need to defeat my rival

  9. Ribus
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    What were the latest news about Haz? Dunk first sub..

    1. banskt
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I think Sarri said he will play 45 mins.

    2. SPorting
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      General opinion is that Haz will play at least 30.

    3. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      He will play a part

    4. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Will play

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

    It will be a travesty if Arnie doesn’t get another return in this match

    1. Patch
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I really think he will get at least an assist on top

    2. banskt
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I took a hit for King --> Arnautovic although I had Jimenez first sub. I need him to score / assist another.

  11. Patch
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Guys come on let's cut Madison some slack he might be impacted by thoughts of the funeral later.

    Glad I didn't buy him though.

  12. Sgt Frank Drebin
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    How many minutes do you think will Arnie get today?

    1. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Depends. If they're 2 up at 70 I think he'll come off. If they're only 1 up, level or behind, he stays on.

  13. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Success so close

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      otherwise known as a deferred success

    2. Jafooli
      • 14 Years

      Congratulations....

    4. The Enlightener
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

  14. Egg noodle
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Watford are absolutely pummelling Newcastle. A Yedlin clean sheet would be a miracle

    1. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      11 goal attempts in 43 minutes so far
