Following on from Leicester City’s 3-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion, the second Premier League match of the day sees Tottenham Hotspur take on Everton.

Kick-off in north London is at 16:30 BST.

The headline team news is that all five major summer signings from these two clubs are handed their full debuts today.

Matt Doherty (£6.0m) makes his Spurs bow at right-back, with Serge Aurier (£5.5m) relegated to the bench.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg (£5.0m) also slots straight into central midfield, as expected.

Having not featured for the Lilywhites in pre-season thanks to self-isolation and international duty, Harry Kane (£10.5m) is back to lead the line.

Son Heung-min (£9.0m), Dele Alli (£8.0m) and Lucas Moura (£7.0m) will support the England international in attack.

All of Everton’s three summer signings make their full debuts, with central midfielders Allan (£5.5m) and Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.5m) selected in Carlo Ancelotti’s starting XI.

James Rodriguez (£7.5m) also makes the cut, despite having started just one league match in the last 11 months.

Son and Doherty are the most-owned players on show here, with both players boasting double-digit ownerships.

Kane was the fourth-most-popular captaincy pick in Gameweek 1, with just over 300,000 FPL managers handing him the armband.

Richarlison (£8.0m), who may well be occupying a wide-midfield role based on Everton’s starting XI, is the only Toffee with an FPL ownership of over 10%.


Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Doherty, Alderweireld, Dier, Davies, Hojbjerg, Winks, Dele, Lucas, Son, Kane.

Everton XI: Pickford, Coleman, Mina, Keane, Digne, Allan, Gomes, Doucoure, Rodriguez, Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin.

    Alli sucks and I hate his new hairstyle

    1. TheSteel
      6 years, 1 month ago

      He doesnt know about you at all.

      1. sirmorbach
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Of course not, I'm well aware he's far more successful than I could ever dream of being myself.

        I still hate his hair.

    2. Hay Number 2

      I’m with you!!!

  2. TheSteel
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Son looks the one to have, fellas and ladies

  3. Steve The Spud

    Dele owners happy to walk away with 3 points

  4. Brosstan
    6 years, 1 month ago

    FFS Son why pass to the donkey instead of Kane...

    1. BENOIT
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Poor pass tbf

    2. ivantys
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Kane ran into offside position tbf

      1. dark91
        6 years, 1 month ago

        He could have passed before he was in an offside position

      2. Brosstan
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Thats what happens when you run behind and no one passes to you in time...

  5. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Should I:

    A) watch Spurs - Everton
    B) keep reading “Say nothing”

      A

  6. Hotdogs for Tea

  7. JBG

    This Peacock streaming service is unwatchable.
    Brings me back to the days of dialup internet connections. In the USA we cant watch the Premier League.

  9. Hattrick Harry
    6 years, 1 month ago

    atm Salah transferred 70k IN and 20k OUT

    1. Zimo
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Some of the outs were before the hattrick

    2. Hattrick Harry
      6 years, 1 month ago

      About 100k more IN than OUT leads to price rise

  10. Shark Team
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Alli better vfm than Son if they start together

    1. Rochdale_Cowboy
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Lay off the Crack

  11. Vazza
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Where’s DCL?

  12. DRIZ ✅
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Thats 1-0 if Kane was there instead of Dele

    1. Pukki Blinders
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Shame Kane was headed offside hey

    2. Locarno
      6 years, 1 month ago

      1-0 if it was my mum instead of Dele.

      1. Leonard hatred
        6 years, 1 month ago

        thats true. she's never struggled to slip one in.

    3. Dr Van Nostrand
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You must be mistaking it for a penalty

    4. Pedram
      6 years, 1 month ago

      He was offside

  13. The Tinkerman
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Richarlison hasn’t done anything yet to alay my feeling immediately after the deadline that I’d made a mistake in picking him...

    Howlers don’t help

  14. Dr Van Nostrand

    Delboy's dirty tash wants that shot back

  15. Davido989
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Looks like Brewster may be moving to Sheffield United after all. Left out of yesterday's squad, left out of today's U23 squad and now Sheffield Star reporting they're in close talks to get it done.

    1. TheSteel
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Steal at 4.5 if nailed

      1. Davido989
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Getting mins either way.

        Loan = Liverpool insert play time clause.

        Buy = Can't see Sheffield benching £25m+ striker.

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

        I don't think he'll be nailed given all the forwards Sheffield United have. Subbed on/off early like the rest of them.

        Best 4.5m FWD for sure though. All you need is a point or two from them most weeks.

      3. Hattrick Harry
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Huh he will not be nailed but better than nothing, though not worth use transfer if not wc

    2. Hotdogs for Tea
      6 years, 1 month ago

      can’t see him starting ahead of McBurnie though 😉

    3. Zimo
      6 years, 1 month ago

      So i can have oliver burke and him cuz they could rotate and then go big everywhere else?

    4. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I hope so, I took the chance and left him on my bench just in case he got a move to a prem club.

    5. JamTart
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Wish I'd left him as 3rd striker was too worried he would stay as a sub and I'd regret not having a third pool slot

  16. seewhyaxe
    6 years, 1 month ago

    that could have been a goal from Kane

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

    Everton are definitely the better team here

  18. have you seen cyan
    6 years, 1 month ago

    this is the kinda game where Dier or Davies will score, Everton lose focus and BOOM

  19. JamTart
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Was delighted with Son holding it up for my guy... then that!

  20. OPTA FPL
    6 years, 1 month ago

    J.Rodriguez not good enough...

    1. Vazza
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No as that could be used as reference for the Burnley player

  21. Hotdogs for Tea
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Aurier to start next week ?

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

      Do spurs have any games before their next prem game?

  22. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    One thing's for sure, Doherty isn't worth 6m.

    1. Neves say Neves
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Why’s that?

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 1 month ago

        He's way further back compared to where he would play at Wolves and he has been pushed wide rather than allowed to drift in centrally like for Wolves.

        1. FFSbet.com
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Nah,very advanced and going into box

    2. Zimo
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yup

    3. ivantys
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yup glad i didn't have him. Mostly just there for the CS points

    4. MGMT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You sure about that?

    5. THE Wild Rover
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Lol, you nearly looked a complete mug. Again

      1. FFSbet.com
        6 years, 1 month ago

        He cant type and watch in the same time,so probably miss his runs into box

  23. Bartowski
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Why does Dele Ali look like he's joined a 1980s witness protection program?!

    1. JBG
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Hahah, actually does.

    2. Brosstan
      6 years, 1 month ago

      He looks like a side character from a blaxploitation movie

      1. Drexl Spivey
        6 years, 1 month ago

        "We're sweating all three sisters down in the lockup."

  24. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    6 years, 1 month ago

    James so close. He’s looking like a very good pick

    1. amitmishr
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah, looks like the player Madrid bought. But still think Everton need to go 4231 to utilize him best

      1. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
        6 years, 1 month ago

        They are playing 4-2-3-1 today I think. Richarlison on wing

        1. Gnu
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 1 month ago

          4-3-3

  25. Collie01
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Rodriguez close

  26. Shark Team
    6 years, 1 month ago

    James gonna get 1-2 attacking returns in next 3 for sure

    1. denial
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah. He looks interesting.

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

    Doucoure dominating

  28. Pedram
    6 years, 1 month ago

    James is class, 7.5 is a steal

    1. Vazza
      6 years, 1 month ago

      HEs injury prone so probably best to avoid

    2. Hay Number 2
      6 years, 1 month ago

      He is...and I’m sniffing pal

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