Felipe Anderson (£7.1m) misses out on a place in the matchday squad for West Ham in the final match of Saturday’s action.

Everton’s visit to the London Stadium has gone largely unnoticed by those playing the Free Hit chip in Double Gameweek 32, but it may still have an effect for those who had Hammers and Toffees in their squads for the Blank Gameweeks perhaps.

Anderson was a widely-owned asset for the last round of matches but is out with a ‘minor ankle knock’ according to the club’s official Twitter.

That sees Robert Snodgrass (£5.0m) return to the starting line-up, while Lucas Pérez (£6.1m) also gets a rare inclusion in the first XI.

The former Arsenal man’s inclusion comes after Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez (£6.1m) was named on the bench.

Pérez features alongside Marko Arnautovic (£6.9m), who has now strung two starts together in a row for the first time since Gameweek 22.

Manuel Lanzini (£6.4m) continues to hold his place in midfield while club captain Mark Noble (£4.8m) and Michail Antonio (£6.8m) drop to the bench.

Everton have arrived in London with a much expected side.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.3m) leads the attack with Richarlison (£6.5m), Gylfi Sigurdsson (£7.3m) and Bernard (£5.9m) supporting him.

West Ham XI: Fabianski; Zabaleta, Diop, Ogbonna, Cresswell; Rice; Snodgrass, Obiang, Lanzini, Arnautovic; L Pérez.

Everton XI: Pickford; Coleman, Keane, Zouma, Digne; Gueye, André Gomes; Richarlison, Sigurdsson, Bernard; Calvert-Lewin.

    Solid, if uninspiring 43 points.

    Agonised all week over whether to go for a risky Sane move at the expense of Rashford + and city defender. Thought why not and it looks like its cost me 12 points so far. Round 1 to others so far and I hope Chelsea smash Cardiff to get me into the 60's at the halfway point with all to play for.

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      own 3x chelsea including the maligned higuain but not expecting better than 2-0

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      51 to go with Haz, Kepa and Kane to go. Should finish the halfway point in the 60s.

    3. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah
      Need a high scoring Chelsea match

    4. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      44 pre baps with 3 Chelsea to go. Confident of the century.

    5. antis0cial
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      43 with Luiz Kane Hazard to play. Hoping Kane goes big as not many seem to have gone with him.

      Always lots of what ifs on a free hit, usually have most of the high scorers in one draft or another.

  2. SkeletONv01

    Worst SEASON ever :/

    1. EMBOLOFAN

      oh no

  3. El-Kloppico
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    This Watford goal costing me more than I thought when thinking so many went with Lindelof.
    And last min change from Zaha to Higuain can be costly if the latter fails.

    With Boruc out of the team I don´t even have a starting goalkeeper. Worth a hit to get one in for 33?

    1. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Not for a hit

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Boruc might get back in after the defeat. Not sure there's a goalie worth spending a transfer or 4 points on if its just for 33, assuming you already have 3 Liverpool.

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        this

  6. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    I’ve gone triple Palace defence (Schlupp, AWB and Tomkins) but still don’t seem to be doing great 🙁

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Just can’t seem to make headway this season.

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      nice move. i considered it

    3. The 5% Team
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      45 points with triple Chelsea to go seems like a good score, no?

    4. antis0cial
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Shame one wasn’t PVA!

  7. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    0 penalty box touches.

    0 chances created.

    0 shots in the box.

    1 goal attempt ... off target.

    What's going on with Pogba? 😯

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      He was shocking today, I’ll be selling him

      1. El-Kloppico
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Whole team was..
        Lucky they won it.

    2. SkeletONv01

      2 months wonder.

    3. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Looked lazy tbh
      Whole Midfield was pathetic for United. Non-existent

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 11 months ago

            We should try and get Meunier and make Dalot our winger

            1. Amey
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 11 months ago

              Yeah
              Could work

  8. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    I'm afraid I might be in for a nasty 2nd half of this dgw. Got a feeking that Kun, Sterling, Shaw, Schlupp and Rash will be rotated

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      cool

    2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      This prophecy may well be correct.

    3. Pigeon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Schlupp probably will, he was rubbish

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Doesn't matter spurs will smash palace.

        Be glad he won't play as chance of minus points

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 11 months ago

          spurs unlikely to smash anyone

  9. kalmoffit
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Fab being kept busy

  10. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Any reason why Boruc has been dropped? Screws up my GW33 team big time.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Begovic trained well during the week and Howe believes he has two #1's.

      1. Smurf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        So annoying. The only week I need him, and looks like he’s not going to play.

    2. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Perhaps Hamer is back in contention. Decent for set and forget on a WC team.

    3. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      hes abysml

  11. Slitherene
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Which move seems better? Just for GW 33.

    A) Fabianski -> Leno
    B) Anderson -> Tielemans

  12. Dead Lift
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Really annoyed from late Watford's goal.. 49 with Hazard, Luiz, Higuain to go. Green arrow from 15K to 13K. I just can't knock on top 10K's door..

  13. The Blackadder
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    I asked on here this morning Kane, Milli & BSilva or Batshuayi, Sterling & Son, all said the latter, so I changed it, sometimes we need more faith in our own abilities to pick 🙂

    1. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      You got the right conclusion

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      I still think they were right. Sometimes good decision making doesn't end up with a good result.

    3. The 5% Team
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      typical hindsight yes

      1. The Blackadder
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        I know, it could’ve worked out perfectly and I would’ve been on here thanking those people, the fine lines of FPL

  14. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    God, West Ham look terrible.

  15. Rash
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    When you realise you have 3 west ham players returning to you..

    1. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      FAnderson -> Maddison next week

      1. Amsterhammer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        I'm all over this.

    2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      😆 Oh Dear!

    3. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Fabs only for me 😀

      Have Periera though. He'll return to usual Binary returna 😀

      1. Rash
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        I have him also!

        And no hazard

        1. Amey
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 11 months ago

          That's dangerous

  16. Bada Bing
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Why can't Balbuena get a game for hammers? Their defence is horrendous. I know he was injured but he's been fit for weeks now and is miles better than diop and ogbonna.

  17. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    I had Martial over Pogba in so many drafts. Really need to stop worrying about ownership as it just makes me bottle good moves.

    1. Champ
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah. Not always easy though. If martial didn't play and Pogba scored a pen plus few baps then that would frustrate too...

  18. Slitherene
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Lukasz Fabianski

    PP : 4.5
    SP : 4.6
    CP : 4.8

    If he falls to 4.7 tonight, will his SP drop too?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Nope

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      No

    3. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Nah you're good

    4. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      No. Needs to go below 4.7 for you SP to drop.

    5. Rash
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      No

    6. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      no

    7. boogle
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      No

  19. Crouching Tiger
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Triple Captain on Sterling hurts. I know there is still time... but I never seem to get it right.

    Previous seasons triple captains for me; Özil, Sanchez, Aguero. Maximum points I've ever got from TC during DGW is 27 points.

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Surely higher from Sanchez?

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      picking player with higher ppg is going to work out in the long run

    3. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      I had Sanchez for his mega haul all those seasons ago.

      Can't remember much apart from that, Kane last year I think but it's been hit and miss for me

    4. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Bit unlucky Walker hitting the post

    5. Crouching Tiger
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      You always think you're going for mega haul for having that chip until the DGW's, and then you see the previous world #1, current #11 using his TC on GW2 and scoring 60 points with Aguero 😛

      Yeah, there is this (massive) luck factor in this game.

  20. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    West Ham makes Hazard seem a good GW33 captain...

    Just hate their tendency to turn it up when they meet big 6

    1. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Vardy

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Definitely one I'm considering

      2. I Member
        • 10 Years

        Good shout.

    2. Champ
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Yes. They love playing Chelsea actually.

    3. I Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Think I'm going with him. Don't own Mane and Salah doesn't have any form, especially away from home.

  21. boogle
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Bednarek to come in if Lindelof doesn’t feature in second game 😀

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Valery here so hoping Lindelof doesn't feature. Has there been any news on why he wasn't in the squad?

    2. HamezMace
      • 11 Years

      Mini league rival has PVA to come in if Lindelöf doesn't play Tuesday.

    3. Claudio555

      You can blame me if you like Johnny.

    Activated my Wildcard instead of Free hit, whole season ruined.

    Amazing

    1. Rash
      • 8 Years

      Just free hit this week

      1. Jollyswagman
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        What do you mean?

        I had 9 players ready for GW33 already, but now with Wildcard I only have 4. Gonna have to FH during the DGW34. I seriously cant understand how I pressed Wildcard over Free hit..

        1. Rash
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 11 months ago

          Ah right sorry misunderstood

        2. Says
          • 15 Years

          doesn't it make you confirm the wildcard?

    2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…

      Ouch

      1. Jollyswagman
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Indeed, especially with the amount of time put down this season also. Cant believe it

    3. EMBOLOFAN

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years

      Best player on the pitch today .

      1. Zladan
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Luke Shaw was the best player on the pitch today imo

      2. Bruno Bruno!!
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Brought in Doucoure this GW

    2. VanDijksToWatchOutFor

      Very thankful to him.

  25. DA Minnion (Former great)

    Why kun only 57 minutes today. Injured?

    1. Bruno Bruno!!

      came off as a precaution, was limping a little

  26. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 10 Years

    would love united to sign Doucoure

  27. Says
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    I was going to Troy Deeney but now I might try Digne

  28. HamezMace
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Captaincy next week is tough,

    Mane/Salah (sou)
    Vardy (hud)
    Wilson (BUR)

    Not an obvious one.

    1. Says
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Mane or Salah if you have them

      1. I Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Why Salah?

        1. Says
          • 15 Years
          6 years, 11 months ago

          because he's the highest scoring player

      2. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        I have all four of those players.
        Mane or Salah will be a headache.

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      People still want to captain Salah???

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Mane

          I guess I'm including him as the most expensive player in my team has to be in the discussion for the armband.

        No F ways, not me.I can't wait to get him out if team after GW33.

      I have it on Hazard, probably staying there.

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        I don't have Hazard, in 33.

    4. Ze_Austin

      Hazard (WHU) in the mix as well

      And I agree. Not obvious at all. Some die-rolling ahead

        After he trolls us all with 4 points this DGW he'll be out of the mix pretty quickly 🙂

        Vardy, of those

          Cheers, I have the conundrum of;

          A. Huddersfield are down, because they're awful, nothing to play for.

          B. Huddersfield will now relax as they have nothing to play for a probably win 4 of the next 6 games.

          A can't opener.

    Early days and all that, but Shaw and Felipe to Fraser and Azpi would give me:

    Hamer (Flappy)
    TAA Azpi Pereira (Diop Bennett)
    Salah Mane Haz Brooks Fraser
    Rondon Vardy (Rash)

    Could also do Rash to Wilson instead of Felipe to Fraser, but would mean losing 0,3m on Rash.

    Pretty decent ehh?
