Leicester City continue their push for a UEFA Champions League qualification place this afternoon.

The Foxes head south face to Spurs in their latest pursuit of three points, with kick-off at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at 16:00 BST.

The team news is very straightforward as both managers have named unchanged starting XIs following wins in Gameweek 36+.

That means another start for Serge Aurier (£5.1m), who has travelled back from France after spending time with his family in the wake of his brother’s death.

It also means a second successive run-out for Luke Thomas (£4.0m) for the visitors, with the budget Fantasy Premier League defender again featuring at left wing-back.

Brendan Rodgers’ side are without Ricardo Pereira (£6.2m), James Maddison (£7.3m), Ben Chilwell (£5.5m), Christian Fuchs (£4.2m) and Marc Albrighton (£5.1m) through injury, with Caglar Soyuncu (£4.9m) suspended.

Dele Alli (£8.3m) is still unavailable for Spurs but Juan Foyth (£4.8m) returns from a lengthy lay-off and is among the substitutes.

Only one Leicester player has an effective ownership of more than 1% in the top 10k: that, unsurprisingly, is Jamie Vardy (£9.7m), who sits in just over one in five of these squads.

Aurier has been benched by more than half of his owners within the top 10k, meanwhile.

Mourinho’s starting XI may have been unchanged in the last three games but the formation continues to evolve, with Son Heung-min (£9.7m) here playing out wide on the left of a 4-2-3-1 rather than up top alongside Harry Kane (£10.9m).


Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris; Aurier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Davies; Sissoko, Winks; Lo Celso, Lucas, Son; Kane.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel; Bennett, Morgan, Evans; Justin, Ndidi, Tielemans, Thomas; Perez, Vardy, Barnes.

    Is there some sort of rivalry between soton and Bournemouth? The soton players seemed really fired up for that.

        Oh wait, I just realised I have Aurier too! Although he is 2nd on bench so shouldn't be needed...hopefully!

        The more BAPs the better.

    I only just checked the Southampton game

    Feared the worst after seeing Ings already bagged in the first half

    What a lovely surprise

      He was my captain. I’m thrilled.

      Why are all the non owners gloating. Some of us are still licking our wounds over here!

    NON-INGS OWNERS OF THE WORLD UNITE

    1. Steve The Spud

      Wood owners rejoicing in an intelligent purchase

    2. E25
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Almost as jammy as owning Wood

  7. Hybrid.power

    Let's go Vardy. We need a party.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I own Vardy. He will therefore flop.

  8. Kellz86

    No Jammy Pieters points boo! Lol

      Pieters should have played in front of Aurier anyway.

      1. TheTinman

        Like me

    Feel so lucky not owning ings. Scored that pen and he would have 9 more pts. The top 1k dream is still alive baby

    1. HollywoodXI
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Ings was my captain...

      1. E25

        Same :'( unlucky mate

    2. WVA

      This game is all luck, that game proved it

      1. POLSKA GOLA
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yes it is

      2. Lucy2019
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        How did that specific game prove it?

        1. WVA
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Did you watch it!?

      3. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Not all luck. But for players who remain active through all 38 GWs, I reckon it is about 30% luck and tilting more and more towards luck.

        1. JONALDINHO
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Luck evens out through a season though.

          1. WVA
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Not at all, I can vouch for that this season!

        2. WVA
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          It's far far more than 30% luck, I'd say at least 80

    3. CBonci
      • 10 Years

      He was my TC this week. So many emotions when he stepped for and then missed that pen. Huuuuge point swing

      1. JONALDINHO
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        1 missed pen cost you 27 pts. Crazy

  10. Louis Van Gaalstones

    Gonna need Villa and Watford to get slaughtered for the last 2 games

      1. JJeyy
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Nope, was a great dexision, Bournemouth only had 0.67xg

        1. WVA
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Did you see the game? The clean sheet was a miracle and I'm a saints fan!

  12. E25

    6 years, 1 month ago

    Danny Ings punished me week after week earlier in the season when I stubbornly kept ignoring him.
    Only fitting that he ends any chance of winning my ML with that Penalty miss having capped him :'(
    Oh Danny boy.

    1. TheTinman
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I had him for his consistent hauls and sold off for his failings. That’s the difference 😎

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        against a -2, 9 point swing ?

      2. E25
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Teach us

    2. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      that was a 4 point and 3 bap miss

      1. HollywoodXI
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        -2 for pen on top

      2. E25
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        18 point swing for me. I was15 behind in ML :'(

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          sickening

    3. HollywoodXI
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Exactly the same boat. Sickening.

  16. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Dang, didn’t think Aurier would play so benched him and brought Pieters in. Shouldn’t live to regret that but never know...

    Let’s go Vardy! Hatty required 🙂

    1. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years

      You know Pieters got 12 points right?

  17. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Vardy looking super lively, owners can start counting their juicy points already....

    Just had a look at this fplreview website with regards to ML rival I'm chasing. I own Ings, he doesn't.

    My luck rating is 27.37 and his is 93.06 haha.

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      how to get the luck factor? wish that was available back in the day to check the jamminess of the one and only Mark Sutherns

    2. FPLHaggis
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      He also owns Kane and Son 😆

  20. DAZZ

    Would be bitterly disappointed as an Ings owner if i didnt have Mccarthy’s lovely 8 pointer.

  21. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years

    Group hug Ings owners for being so unlucky

    1. Jafooli

      Juuuhhuuuuu

    2. Carcetti
