One of Double Gameweek 35’s captain favourites Raúl Jiménez (£6.9m) starts for Wolves in the Saturday afternoon matches.

Thankfully for those backing him, Nuno Espirito Santo has named a very strong starting XI to support him.

First-choice full-backs Jonny (£4.3m) and Matt Doherty (£5.3m) both keep their places in the side, as does Jiménez’s strike partner Diogo Jota (£6.2m).

Opponents Brighton have gone with the same centre-back pairing of Shane Duffy (£4.8m) and Lewis Dunk (£4.4m), while Mat Ryan (£4.4m) is still in goal.

Despite those three players being involved in a disastrous Double Gameweek last time out, some managers will have left them in their squads and may be keeping an eye on them this afternoon.

There has been plenty of attention on Watford’s attack this week, and after days of speculation, we now know which two players will play up front for them against Huddersfield.

With Troy Deeney (£5.9m) suspended, and Isaac Success (£4.5m) still playing catch-up in the pecking order, it is Andre Gray (£5.9m) and Gerard Deulofeu (£5.6m) who lead the Hornets’ line.

Mainstay Abdoulaye Doucouré (£6.0m) keeps his place in central midfield as expected, while Craig Cathcart (£4.5m) and Ben Foster (£4.6m) start in defence.

With Jose Holebas (£4.8m) out, Adam Masina (£4.3m) starts at left-back while Adrian Mariappa (£4.2m) comes in for Christian Kabasele (£4.4m) at centre-back.

Bournemouth are unchanged for their home match against Fulham, which could reward those who looked at single Gameweek options.

So too could Jamie Vardy (£9.0m) and his Leicester colleagues, as they have Marc Albrighton (£5.1m) back in the starting line-up for the first time since Gameweek 24 at West Ham.

Bournemouth XI: Boruc; Aké, S Cook, Mepham, A Smith; Fraser, Gosling, Lerma, Brooks; King, Wilson.

Fulham XI: Rico; Bryan, Le Marchand, Ream, Odoi; Seri, Anguissa, Chambers; Sessegnon, Mitrovic, Babel.

Huddersfield XI: Lössl; Smith, Schindler, Kongolo, Durm; Hogg, Bacuna, Mooy; Kachunga, Mounie, Mbenza.

Watford XI: Foster; Kiko Femenía, Mariappa, Cathcart, Masina; Doucouré, Capoue; Hughes, Sema; Deulofeu, Gray.

West Ham XI: Fabianski; Zabaleta, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Masuaku; Rice; Antonio, Noble, Snodgrass, Felipe Anderson; Arnautovic.

Leicester XI: Schmeichel; Ricardo Pereira, Evans, Maguire, Chilwell; Ndidi; Gray, Tielemans, Maddison, Albrighton; Vardy.

Wolves XI: Rui Patrício; Bennett, Coady, Boly; Doherty, Gibbs-White, Rúben Neves, João Moutinho, Jonny; Jiménez, Diogo Jota.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Bruno, Duffy, Dunk, Bong; Groß, Stephens, Pröpper; March, Murray, Izquierdo.

    Brighton CS nailed now. When you hit the woodwork this many times you know it isn't your day.

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Flawed logic

  3. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Lloris, Valery, KdB, Llorente ... it just gets worse 🙂

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Join the club. I also took a -8 to get rid of Brighton players and Deeney 🙂

      Every chip I’ve played has been a failure. Probably would have scored more over last 5 weeks without them.

    2. TRIPOS TOPPER
      • 8 Years

      FML

      No Valery and Lloris for me today

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

      3. Mysterion

    1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 16 Years

  24. OldBenKenobi
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    All I can hope for is SOU to concede a good few to make me feel better about the Valery no show (not likely though)

  25. SHOOTER MCGINN
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Jiminez blank and Brighton clean sheet is a double whammy.

      Jiminez is better in the big games

    • Maddi Son
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Vardy keepers separating the men from the boys. No hindsight required.
