Eddie Nketiah (£4.3m) makes an immediate return to the Arsenal team following his Gameweek 34+ suspension.

The young striker last a matter of minutes in the 1-1 draw with Leicester, in which he was sent off shortly after taking to the field as a substitute.

With that three-match ban out of the way, Mikel Arteta has thrown him back into the side for his first Premier League appearance since then.

Nketiah is joined in the attack by Arsenal’s key attackers Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.9m) and Alexandre Lacazette (£9.2m), who start together again for the first time since the Gameweek 35+ defeat at Spurs.

As has become usual, Arteta has lined his troops up in 3-4-3 formation, Bukayo Saka (£4.7m) and Cédric Soares (£4.8m) providing the width as wing-backs on this occasion.

Aston Villa line-up in their customary 4-3-3 formation, Jack Grealish (£5.9m) and Trézéguet (£5.2m) flanking Mbwana Samatta (£5.1m) in attack.

With Watford losing heavily against Manchester City, Dean Smith’s men may have half an eye on goal difference, as they currently share the same figure (-27) with the Hornets and are three points adrift of safety.

Aston Villa XI: Reina; Targett, Mings, Konsa, Elmohamady; Hourihane, D Luiz, McGinn; Grealish, Samatta, Trézéguet.

Arsenal XI: Martínez; Kolasinac, D Luiz, Holding; Saka, Torreira, Ceballos, Cédric; Aubameyang, Lacazette, Nketiah.

    Will the FPL site be adding an asterisk next to this season on team history to signify that it was tainted?

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years

      I’m thinking of selling him and Pulisic and get DSilva & Kane.

      1. Coys96
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 5 days ago

        I wish I could do that but just out-priced!

  6. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE

    Bottomed

    For GW38:

    A) David Silva + Vardy
    Or
    B) Sterling + Greenwood -4

    1. Saka Punch
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      B

  7. Wild Card this!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Jesus and Pulisic to Kane and DSilva for -4?

    1. Predator
      • 16 Years

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years

      Great

  9. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    fck its hard to cap Kane over Sterling in 38, but im doing it

  10. Tomas Brolin ate all Depays
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Im lazy .... I ate all the pies

    What’s the template FREE HIT ?

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Martinez
      Bardsley Pieters TAA
      Foden D Silva Antonio Mane
      Jesus Kane Auba

      3.9 3.9 4.2 4.5

  11. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    All 6 of my players have gotten returns so far.
    Now come on Auba!

  12. timawflowers
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Bring in auba or Kate?

    1. timawflowers
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Kane even

    2. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      I’m doing Kane for Jesus.

  13. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Got KDB. Which option looks best?

    A) D. Silva (free)
    B) Jesus (free)
    C) Salah to Sterling (only way to get him for free)
    D) Sterling (-4)

    Sterling is clearly the best City asset but is he worth taking a -4 or losing Salah? It's Norwich...

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Same dilemma here.. Leaning towards D and Sterling (C)

    2. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      If you're going to captain Sterling then it would be worth the -4.

    3. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Cheers both. No other standout captains so I probably would captain him.

  14. Pep's Money Laundry
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Sterling & Silva are locked in now in my team, the question is who else? It has to be KDB over Jesus as he going for the assist record

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Ederson
      Walker Garcia Laporte Mendy
      Dilva Rodri KDB Mahrez
      Sterling Jesus

    2. TRIPOS TOPPER
      • 8 Years

      KdB a shield for sure

  15. Syd.

  16. Kodap

    Pope
    Trent - Saiss - Egan
    Salah - Fernandes - Dilva (c) - KDB
    Jesus - Ings - Rashford

    Henderson - Fernandez - Hayden & Holgate

  17. fr3d

    Looks like LMS is over for another season.

    https://www.livefpl.net/LMS

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Lack of Man City players?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        6 years, 5 days ago

        Bottom guy had Jesus, KDB and Sterling.
        Other 2 had Mahrez.

  21. Strchld
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Not sure should I try to get both, Mane and Salah on free hit and just 2 City attackers (KdB and Dilva) and Laporte.
    Have someone tryied to get both Liverpoolboys in?

  22. ClassiX
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    So, the Hammers effectively safe, barring a 14 goal swing over the next 2 games - surely they just park the bus against ManU?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Surely they won’t care enough to park it?

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years

      LOL

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      They will all be on the beach
      Could be a cricket scoreline

  23. simong1
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Set on Dilva and Sterling on my FH. KDB or Mahrez for the last spot? Leaning towards Mahrez at the moment

  24. Mackans
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Thoughts on my FH draft? (0.0ib)

    Martinez
    Aurier Pieters Branthwaite
    Salah Sterling Mahrez Dilva Antonio
    Kane Auba

  25. DAZZ
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    McCarthy (7) Tarkowski (6) Doherty (12) Pieters (12) Sterling (c) (34) Jimi (5). Stunned at my GW so far. 95, with Bruno, AWB, Greenwood and TAA to go. Over the moon. This is my best GW of the season

    1. Greek Freak
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Well done! I wish I had captained Sterling but I didn't dare given the FA Cup uncertainty.

    2. Superflymonk
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Noice!

    3. La Roja
      • 14 Years

      Nice one

    4. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Wow.... great score

  26. Muller Reus Corner
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Is it worth going Mane —> Sterling for my FT and then bringing in a Liverpool defender for a -4 hit?

    1. Muller Reus Corner
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      And will play my TC

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Dont bring in a defender for a hit

      1. Muller Reus Corner
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 5 days ago

        Ok, so would you take Mane out for Sterling and hope the Liverpool game is quiet? Or should I bring in Dilva for Pulisic instead?

  27. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Gotta be Sterling TC right?

  28. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Who wins:

    A) 4 points, DDG, Willian, Bruno, Greenwood
    B) Salah (c), Pulisic, Rashford

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      A

  29. Kodap
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 5 days ago

    Okay, struggling to get a reply on this.. I need 1 more post answering then i'm shutting off the site until next season!!

    I've got 0.5m to spend for final GW, with 1FT.. Would you change anything to this squad?

    Pope
    Trent - Saiss - Egan
    Salah - Fernandes - Dilva (c) - KDB
    Jesus - Ings - Rashford

    Henderson - Fernandez - Hayden & Holgate

    What is the general consensus here about a respectable rank for someone who has played FPL sincerely (taking into account, dead teams & late joiners who are just playing for fun).

    I feel Top 5% maybe, like anything under 350-400k ?

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Top 100k

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      Top 75k

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 5 days ago

      63.1% of all FPL teams are inactive so 7.62m * (1 - 63.1%) = 2.81m active teams. Being in the top 5% of this = top 140k and would say most on here would like to be in the top 1% = top 28k.

      1. Game of Throw_ins
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 5 days ago

        Wow... 63% teams are inactive!! That's a really huge percentage.
