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.

    If I had the FT to do it, I’d have sold Duffy or Ryan.

  6. Sandy Ravage

    That late Huddersfield goal was huge

  7. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Only Delofeu owners are happy.

    I considered him or Deeney. Went Deeney of course 🙁

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Even after fa cup magic by Deulofeu?! That swayed most

  8. pjomara

    7 years, 4 months ago

    Phew. Wondered loads about disposing of one my 3 Brighton def, but kept them in the end. 5 CS from one game. Yes!

  9. Annie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Triple Brighton defence 🙂

    1. JohnnyMagrinho
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Horrendous decision.

      Very lucky.

      1. Annie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Not really, what’s the point on losing them for a hit...

  10. FPL Pillars

    Nice one Huddersfield

  11. One for All
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    my god Watford wtf last kick of the ball you concede lol

  12. Mweene
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    That Huddersfield goal completely screws me. Both my money league rivals have Deulofeu as well. Getting 0 luck recently

  13. XabiAlonso
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    24 points from BB so far
    :ozilface:

  14. Rainer
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Duffy the best scoring captain pick, so far!

  15. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    9 points gone. I'm gonna cry

    1. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Me too - rival has no Watford defence and no bench boost - so much for my careful planning - this game is random

  16. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Did Dunk -> Yoshida for a (-4) even though I didn't have to

  17. The Tinkerman
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    -8, removed Dunk and Duffy, have triple Watford defence.

    Jimi (C), KDB, Lloris, Valery.

    I’m done, team would be better off without me touching it. See you all next year 😀

    1. Jordan.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      See ya tomorrow

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 15 Years

      Sorry but secretly laughing at those decisions

    3. Indpush
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Perhaps less tinkering man?

  18. EMBOLOFAN
    • 8 Years

    ryan 2 baps looking good

  19. OldBenKenobi
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    That Grant goal is the single most pointless and annoying goal ever to be scored. F#%* right off Huddersfield....

    1. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Does suck. Can't believe I called it, just had a feeling when he came on. Solid player

      1. SM001
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Oh piss off

    2. FPLGyarados
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      They scored against wolves too in the 90+ min too. So livid

  20. Top 210 Club
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Can't believe people sold Duffy or/and Ryan for hits!

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Makes zero sense, unless it was a luxury transfer to a different DGW player.

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      There’s always one hindsighter

    3. SM001
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Mental carry on all together. Who would do such a thing after letting in 7 their last 2 games. Twonk

  21. Jordan.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Hurry up and get lost shuddersfield

  22. JohnnyMagrinho
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Brighton clean sheet away at Wolves.

    You just can't write this stuff.

    It's almost as if the planning aspect of the game is good up until around GW30ish and then the last couple of months is just anyone's guess.

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Patience is. When season end is near people panic and have much less patience. Example I kept deulofue inspite of him missing dgw 34 as when he plays he is crazy good for watford

    2. Calderano FC
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Totally agree mate, global warming has ruined this game. I remember the days when double gameweeks would be all over the shop due to snow and ice.

  23. YEAH PITCH!
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Thank you Brighton.

    Ryan outperforming Foster lol

  24. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Brooks > Moura (-4) might not work out so badly after all

  25. A Moon Shaped Pool
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Deulofeu 2 goals, Vardy goal, Ryan and Duffy cleansheet. I’m a happy boy

    1. JohnnyMagrinho
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Player who was marked as injured and not guaranteed to play, double up on one of the worst defences against a far superior team away from home. I'll give you Vardy, but yeah, lucky boy.

      1. HNI
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Wolves had no form going in. After the watford loss they lost their way. Losing ro southamptom was big hint. Also deulofue waa expected to start as he has trained. Just because you dont read news doesnt make those who do lucky. It makes them informed and better chance to score points

      2. Cookie Kid
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        All part of the game

        Well done

        1. A Moon Shaped Pool
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Thank you my guy. Great day to bench boost and without hits

  26. Hect.OR 98th
    • 16 Years

    Triple Brighton defence. Not the week I expected them to get much.

  27. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 10 Years

          Thank you!

  28. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Had triple Brighton defence, Deulofeu, Doherty & didn't captain Jimenez.

    Solid afternoon 😀

  29. TheDragon
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    One of the only useful things I posted here this week was that it wasn’t justifiable to take Brighton defence out for hits

    1. Indpush
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Congratulations

  30. WrightnBright
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Think I’m going to auto pick every transfer next season, can’t do any worse and will save hours/days of wasted research.
