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 are really clowns.....trying only now to really keep a clean sheet. This should have been done twice at home in front of their fans last week !! Now it's just crisis planning..

  2. Zladan

        Well I know that, but he has to get 13 points to match Deu after 1 game.

        No need to be so condescending.

  9. thunder_mike
    • 13 Years

    Another 50/50 decision got wrong. Went Jota over Deulofeu

    1. drughi
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      made sense with Deulofeu being flagged

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

  10. SPorting
    • 14 Years

    I bet Mark has Deulo.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

  13. Jimmy Boy
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    It sure is a close contest, but I'm gonna say that Lucas Perez putting West Ham 2-1 up wins the 'most irrelevant FPL goal of the weekend' award

  14. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    LUCAS PEREZZZZZZZZZZZZ

  15. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers

    'Cause since I've come on home,
    Well my body's been a mess
    And I've missed your ginger hair
    And the way you like to dress
    Won't you come on over
    Stop making a fool out of me
    Why don't you come on over Valerie?
    Valerie

    • 9 Years

    Deulofeu is a great player tbh.

    Hope he stays fit, could be good next season from GW1 if Watford have good starting fixtures

  20. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Should have captain Deulofeu over Sterling but happy anyway

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

      Sterling is much better for the run in

  21. CloudSky
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    This is going to be soul crushing when Dendocker scores a winner in 92.

    Doherty CS banked!

  22. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Doherty off
    Adama on.

  23. Lizardprime
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    It's not gonna change anything after a bad season, I'm still gonna end up with a poor rank and not win my minileague, but Deulofeu (C) has absolutely made my day.

  24. tucaoneo
    • 7 Years
