The first of three Premier League matches to take place on Sunday sees Leicester City take on Arsenal at the King Power Stadium.

Kick-off is at 12:00 BST.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is fit to start having undergone a “small procedure” on a sinus in midweek and the Gabonese forward is joined in the Arsenal starting XI by Alexandre Lacazette.

Sead Kolasinac and Shkodran Mustafi also come into the visitors’ side as Nacho Monreal, Mesut Ozil and Laurent Koscielny drop out.

The latter is on the bench but Ozil misses out with a foot problem and Monreal is sidelined with a calf injury.

Brendan Rodgers has made only one change, with Hamza Choudhury replacing Demarai Gray.

This is Choudhury’s first start under the new Leicester boss and his first league start since January.

Harvey Barnes is only among the substitutes despite scoring a stoppage-time equaliser in the 2-2 draw with West Ham last weekend.

Jamie Vardy leads the line for the Foxes again and no FPL asset has been involved in as many goals (ten) as the Leicester striker from Gameweek 28 onwards.

Youri Tielemans has only blanked in one of the last eight Gameweeks, meanwhile.

Arsenal have won only two of their last 11 away league matches and have kept just one clean sheet on the road all season.

Aubameyang and Lacazette have both only scored one goal in their last six Premier League away appearances.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Ricardo, Evans, Maguire, Chilwell, Ndidi, Tielemans, Choudhury, Albrighton, Maddison, Vardy.

Subs: Ward, Soyuncu, Gray, Iheanacho, Barnes, Mendy, Fuchs.

Arsenal XI: Leno, Maitland-Niles, Mustafi, Sokratis, Kolasinac, Xhaka, Torreira, Mkhitaryan, Iwobi, Aubameyang, Lacazette.

Subs: Cech, Koscielny, Mavropanos, Elneny, Guendouzi, Willock, Nketiah.

    As a Foxes fan and FPL owner I quite like Mr Vardy. Good chap.

    Was on 79 for this GW pre-LEIvARS with Tielemans, Vardy and Aguero to go! This is turning out to be a dream Sunday...

    Vardy just taken me to 100 points for the week 😆

    Thought I'd missed out after DGWs ended. First ton after four 90+ scores!

      Congrats mate.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years

        Thank you!

      Well done Hazz. Not too far behind you on 93!

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Hopefully those Tielemans bonus pints & Aguero pushes you over the summit mate.

      2. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years

        Actually. Vardy x2. You're in!

    3. Don Kloppeone
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Nice one mate!

      I’ve also finally hit a ton this week after 3 90+ scores this season

    Vardy nowhere near baps

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      He has missed a number of good chances. Even his shot for the goal hit the bar and he had to put the rebound in.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Big chances missed!

    GW35, Vardy & Tielemans out
    GW35 - Vardy (9), Tielemans (5)
    GW36 - Vardy (6*), Tielemans (8*)

    *Not finished.

    I hate my life. Oh did I mention I took them both out as a -12 plan to BB to catch 1st place in my ML. Yeah I'm a tool I know.

    Vardy party is the best party

    1. Party time
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Yes bro!

      • Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Nah!
        Aelling Vardy for Firmino and having Gray off the bench for 8 points was the way to go 😀

        1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Scratch that last comment delayed stream 😀

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Damn, every ML rival has Vardy, luckily I'm already on 120 points!

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Woof!

    3. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      *deactivates Sterling triple captaincy*

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      How has Son quietly gotten away with delivering 2 attacking returns in his last 10 games?

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Eye test

      2. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Because he smashed it against City in the CL and Spurs generally have been poor in that period.

      3. dark91
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Not many better alternatives

    5. FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Do you reckon this is worth a -4 for the last 2 games of the season?

      Firm and Eriksen --> Zaha and Sterling

    6. Klein
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Leno save one more please

    7. Legendary!
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Does this count as a real life assist for Schmeichel (not FPL I know it doesn't count)? The commentator keeps saying he got an assist

      1. Klein
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Dont think so.

    8. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      I don't think any of the teams vying for 4th place deserve to be in the Champions League next season at all...

      1. JIMMY TUGGINS
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Hot take.

    9. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Barnes misses 1-on-1. Vardy played him in.

      1. Party time
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Vardy Partyyyyyg

      2. Kellz86
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        LENO 9th save yes

      3. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        How many late goals does Jamie Vardy get?
        Seems to get more than most?

        1. JIMMY TUGGINS
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Nice timing.

          none when hes in your team one of my biggest trolls ,rat faced git..

          1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
            • 16 Years
            6 years, 10 months ago

            I dunno how you can call him a troll when Vardy has only failed to get a return in fpl three times since gw27.
            So the other seven times he did well.

          • 9 Years

          when you're constantly running in behind tired defences you're bound to be rewarded

      4. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        And that’s 9 saves for Leno.

      5. Gobigorgohome
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Vardy assist wasted

              6 years, 10 months ago

              Well done mate! I think I've broken 100 pt barrier now. Hopefully Vardy boy gets 1 bp at least!

              1. tiger
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 14 Years
                6 years, 10 months ago
