Abraham, Pulisic and James among the substitutes as Chelsea face unchanged Villa

The second of Aston Villa’s two Double Gameweek 30+ fixtures kicks off at 16:15 BST, with Chelsea the visitors to the Midlands.

The Villans are unchanged from the side that drew 0-0 with Sheffield United in midweek, meaning that the ‘out of position’ and misclassified Fantasy Premier League midfielder Keinan Davis (£4.3m) once again leads the line for the hosts.

Jack Grealish (£6.4m), the most-bought FPL asset of the current Gameweek, is deployed on the left flank once more.

Frank Lampard has made four changes from the last starting XI he named in the Premier League, although that of course was way back in March.

Andreas Christensen (£4.8m), N’Golo Kante (£5.0m) and Mateo Kovacic (£5.3m) are recalled, while the fit-again Ruben Loftus-Cheek (£6.3m) makes his first appearance of the season.

Kurt Zouma (£4.7m), Billy Gilmour (£4.5m), Ross Barkley (£5.7m) and Pedro (£6.8m) drop out.

With Reece James (£5.1m) only among the substitutes, Marcos Alonso (£6.2m) gets his fourth straight league start – the premium FPL defender hasn’t blanked in any of his starts this season.

Tammy Abraham (£7.5m) and Christian Pulisic (£6.9m) also have to be content with places on the bench, as Oliver Giroud (£6.6m) and the soon-to-be out-of-contract Willian (£7.0m) retain their places in Lampard’s side.

Aston Villa XI: Nyland; Konsa Ngoyo, Mings, Hause, Targett; Hourihane, Douglas Luiz, McGinn; El Ghazi, Davis, Grealish.

Chelsea XI: Arrizabalaga; Azpilicueta, Rüdiger, Christensen, Alonso; Loftus-Cheek, Kanté, Kovacic; Willian, Giroud, Mount.

        Don’t. I’ve been ruined by so many odd twists this season and I’m finally back down to a 6 digit rank 😀

      101 with TAA, Sterling, KDB and captain Kun to play.

      Will be disappointed with less than 120. Hoping for 130.

      125 but Sterling (C) instead of Aguero. Afraid that he (Sterling) will be benched (along with mahrez) and Aguero will haul

    3pts from 6 players today. How is that even possible! No Liverpool players in my team either. The darkest day of my FPL career.

    Current WC team.

    Pope Button
    TAA Doherty Aurier
    KDB Son Salah Fernandes
    Rashford Jimmi

    A. Salah DCL (Saka Fernandez Saiss). Playing 343

    B. Mane Martial (Lascelles Nketiah Simpson) Playing 352

    A is a deeper bench. B is (maybe) a higher scoring first team.

    Cheers!
