Bournemouth face Everton in the first of two Premier League matches to take place this Sunday.

Kick-off at the Vitality Stadium is at 14:00 BST.

There were a couple of surprises when the teamsheets were released, although we have come to expect the unexpected with Eddie Howe.

Lewis Cook (£5.0m) makes his first Premier League start of 2019 after recovering from a long-term knee injury, while Ryan Fraser (£7.3m) drops to the substitutes’ bench for the first time this season.

Adam Smith (£4.4m) has failed to recover from a hamstring problem so is replaced by debutant Jack Stacey (£4.4m) at right-back, while Chris Mepham (£4.9m) is only fit enough for a place on the bench after picking up an injury while on duty with Wales.

Nathan Ake (£4.9m) moves back across to centre-half, paving the way for a return at left-back for budget FPL defender Diego Rico (£4.0m).

Dominic Solanke (£5.4m) also starts for the Cherries, alongside Joshua King (£6.3m) and Callum Wilson (£7.8m).

Marco Silva has himself named two changes from the team that defeated Wolves a fortnight ago, one of which sees Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.8m) return up front at the expense of Moise Kean (£6.8m).

Morgan Schneiderlin (£4.5m) replaces the missing Andre Gomes (£5.4m) in Silva’s only other alteration.

The Everton boss has since confirmed that Gomes has picked up a rib injury.

Alex Iwobi (£5.9m) and ‘out of position’ FPL defender Fabian Delph (£5.4m) make their second successive league starts for the Toffees.

This fixture generally generates goals: 31 of them have been scored in eight meetings between the two sides since Bournemouth were promoted.

Bournemouth XI: Ramsdale, Stacey, S. Cook, Ake, Rico, Billing, L. Cook, H. Wilson, Solanke, C. Wilson, King.

Everton XI: Pickford, Coleman, Keane, Mina, Digne, Delph, Schneiderlin, Richarlison, Sigurdsson, Iwobi, Calvert-Lewin.

      Everton is not good for Digne

    7 years, 1 month ago

    Can I play a 0-6-4 formation?????

    Seriously sick of defenders!!!!!

    P off Digne

    1. yakirh
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Did you really expect a clean sheet here??

      1. Stupendous
        7 years, 1 month ago

        It's Bournemouth and i am just fed up with them all tbh

        Lund Montoya TAA Digne Otamendi this week.

      2. TheBrazilianRonaldo
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I didn’t. Overall Everton defenders look good value. And I react the same when I read people expecting miracles

  9. SH1M1
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Defenders are so overrated this year, may aswell go with budget prices

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yep

    2. el polako
      7 years, 1 month ago

      All those 5 at the back squads in preseason....
      Just shows there is no blueprint to play FPL

  10. SADIO SANÉ
    7 years, 1 month ago

    so saving a transfer even though I had Trossard and Martial out would have been the right decision ... classic

    1. JIMMY TUGGINS
      7 years, 1 month ago

      lol saving FT with Martial rather than one of a few moves was the only thing I did right, still getting a red arrow though of course, standard.

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        7 years, 1 month ago

        said I wouldn't make Saturday morning transfers this season, but just couldn't help myself lol

    2. Tsparkes10
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yup. Brought in TAA and Ceballos for AWB and Martial. Big rips. Unless Ceballos bangs

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        7 years, 1 month ago

        proper annoying, didn't want to miss out on the Man City-Norwich bloodbath and seemed stupid to go into that game with just Sterling(who could have missed out). But I once did a double-transfer that resulted in about a 30+ point negative swing so this is nothing 😀

  11. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Please score Digne

    1. Bobby Digital
      7 years, 1 month ago

      This.

  12. Yome
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Digne is gone after this game

    1. TheBrazilianRonaldo
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Sheffield Utd next.

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Digne/Greenwood to Rico/Tammy

    3. TyroneGAA
      7 years, 1 month ago

      2 assists in previous 4 games and this one not over yet calm down

  13. onceuponatyne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Rico playing today - 4m!
    Is he only in due to a short-term injury elsewhere, or is a real option for those of us who need some pennies?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Former. Lloyd Kelly is 1st choice.

      1. onceuponatyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Kelly only out short term?

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          7 years, 1 month ago

          «Set to return to training on 13/9 but will need a period of time to build up his fitness and won't be involved against Everton on 15/9.»

    Callum Wilson low-key killing it.

  15. have you seen cyan
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Lucky VAR is useless, King was offside and handballed it so ofc it stands 😀

    1. diesel001
      7 years, 1 month ago

      He didn't handball it. It looks like he handled it, but it actually came off his chest and it is just the angle of the photo they showed that makes it look like handball.

      1. have you seen cyan
        7 years, 1 month ago

        maybe yea, replay i saw was a terrible angle

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I really want to see replay

  16. OPTA FPL
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Digne need to go, Everton defenfe has been rubbish since Gbamin injury

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 1 month ago

      The problem is that TAA is only decent def atm. I want to play 1-5-4

  17. SADIO SANÉ
    7 years, 1 month ago

    not sure if I'm being an idiot (I know he didn't touch it) but Wilson was about 2mm from flicking the initial cross, in an offside position, and then King handballs it?

  18. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    7 years, 1 month ago

    I should never have dropped Wilson. I swapped for Pukki and held on to Jota like a moron

  19. Zenith UK
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Is anyone worse at picking captains than me?

    GW1 - Salah (12 > 24) *Note: I had Sterling in team from the day FPL opened and switched to Salah three hours before opening day kick off...
    GW2 - Salah (3 > 6)
    GW3 - Kane (2 > 4)
    GW4 - Sterling (3 > 6) *Note: GW3 I swapped Salah out for Sterling (chasing points like a tool)... WELL couldn't have got the Salah/Sterling rotation more wrong could I?
    GW5 - KDB (1 > 2)

    If you would like to know who I'm selecting in GW6 it's a £5 fee so you know not to select them 😀
    After finishing top 15K 17/18 and top 50K 18/19 I'm currently in a measly 3,915,835 rank... :'(

    1. diesel001
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Damn.

      1. Zenith UK
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Started season with Richar... Dropped him, he gets a brace...
        Benched Haller GW1, played GW2... Injured, transferred out, gets a brace...
        GW3 benched Cantwell vs CHE instead of AWB vs CPL... AWB 0, Cantwell 7, first sub...
        GW5 took a -4 for Laporte & Kelly > VVD and Ota, they got a combined 3 points

    2. JIMMY TUGGINS
      7 years, 1 month ago

      That's even worse than my captains and I've been awful, commiserations.

      1. Zenith UK
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Oh and I've wildcarded already to try and put out the fire that spontaneously appeared on my team after the opening GWs

    3. Dosh
      7 years, 1 month ago

      GW1 - Kane 13
      GW2 - Salah 3
      GW3 - Kane 2
      GW4 - Sterling 3
      GW5 - Sterling 2

      Almost as bad as you, rank as well. 😐

  20. MITHRRANDIRR
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Offside and handball in the buildup to that goal but VAR was having coffee. PL refs setting a standard in uselessness. Michael Oliver in VAR room apparently, the new Clattenburg.

    1. Differentiator
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Wasn't offside as he didn't touch it, and not convinced he touched it with his hand either

      1. MITHRRANDIRR
        7 years, 1 month ago

        The only replay on TV showed ball bouncing off his body and onto his hand.

      2. Zenith UK
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Don't have to touch the ball to be deemed offside... Any movement or obstruction (be it physically or visually) which deceives or distracts and opponent (defender) makes a player deemable as offside

  21. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Digne on long throws

  22. TheSteel
    7 years, 1 month ago

    I finally sold King this week. So expect a big haul

  23. Srv210
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Anybody looking to get Nicolas Pepe for Arsenal's good run of fixtures??

    With laca injured I think he can be more Central to attack , can anybody help to make decision

    1. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 1 month ago

      If I could figure out how to get him/Son in alongside Salah Sterling KDB (Pukki) etc in my team, I would.

      Any midweek injuries could sort that I suppose

    2. EMERGING STAR
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I got him this week. (Was considering Son too but Spurs as a team put me off.)

      Adrian
      Digne - Pieters - Zinc
      Salah - Sterling - KDB - Pepe - Cantwell
      Pukki - Haller

      Button - Lundstram - Kelly - Wickam

  24. FPL Scoop

    7 years, 1 month ago

    Prem refs are largely pretty useless it seems.

    1. MITHRRANDIRR
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Till now, on-field ref has not been asked to watch an incident in the replay. In the World Cup on-field was making the final calls after having a look at the incident.

  25. have you seen cyan
    7 years, 1 month ago

    hmm looks like Wilson stays in my team then despite wc

    1. The Overthinker
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Good value.
      Only player to return in every match?

      1. EMERGING STAR
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Auba too i guess

      2. have you seen cyan
        7 years, 1 month ago

        not sure but he cant be faulted, returned in all games and I would say he has been off-form kinda. And good fixtures, cant ditch him now

    2. Kno
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Sold him for tammy yesterday, slightly regret that action.

  26. CobraKai
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Think Im going cheap defense at the back, no one can keep a cleansheet. 4.5s all round !

    1. yakirh
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Back to the basics

    2. Bobby Digital
      7 years, 1 month ago

      We just had a GW where all defenders kept cleanies except Digne who got an assist.

  27. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    7 years, 1 month ago

    What's the point of VAR if it's never going to be used

    1. TheSteel
      7 years, 1 month ago

      The PL said there would be mistakes.

    2. THE Wild Rover
      7 years, 1 month ago

      It was used. They saw nothing wrong

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        7 years, 1 month ago

        hope they show it again at half-time, about 3 different things makes that a potential no-goal imo, but not sure I know the rules 😀

    3. JIMMY TUGGINS
      7 years, 1 month ago

      They seem desperate to avoid overturning decisions.

    4. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Needs time

  28. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Rico wanted that free kick

  29. have you seen cyan
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Hilson danger zone FK

  30. Ady87
    7 years, 1 month ago

    If TAA isn’t keeping cleanies against teams like SOU, BUR, NEW, NOR, should we just be shipping for budget and investing elsewhere until Alisson is back? It allows for Barnes > Firmino or similar. Anyone making similar moves?

    1. TheSteel
      7 years, 1 month ago

      TAA season keeper for me. Cleansheets will come. Theyre not gonna face Jetro every week

    2. milanista10
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 1 month ago

      As a non-owner, he is the most player that annoys me to watch.. His crosses are amazing & is always in dangerous positions. I am saving the transfer this week & getting him next week.

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 1 month ago

      TAA has enough attacking threat for 7.0
