It’s as you were for both Everton and West Bromwich Albion in the opening match of Gameweek 2.

Fresh from a 1-0 win at Spurs, Carlo Ancelotti has gone with the same XI that impressed there.

That means another start in the front-three for James Rodriguez (ยฃ7.5m), who was highly sought-after in the Fantasy Premier League transfer market this week.

The Colombian international is joined at that end of the pitch by Dominic Calvert-Lewin (ยฃ7.1m) and Richarlison (ยฃ8.0m), both of whom scored or had chances to in Gameweek 1.

The midfield trio of Allan (ยฃ5.5m), Abdoulaye Doucourรฉ (ยฃ5.5m) and Andrรฉ Gomes (ยฃ5.5m) gets another chance to dictate proceedings in front of an unchanged back-four.

Lucas Digne (ยฃ6.1m) is at left-back, Seamus Coleman (ยฃ5.0m) on the right-hand side of Michael Keane (ยฃ5.0m) and Yerry Mina (ยฃ5.5m).

Considering his slight personnel issues, Slaven Bilic has named a five-man defence once again, despite conceding three times at home to Leicester last time out.

Branislav Ivanovic (ยฃ4.5m) is not ready for involvement yet, so Kieran Gibbs (ยฃ4.5m) and Darnell Furlong (ยฃ4.5m) sit either side of Dara O’Shea (ยฃ4.5m), Kyle Bartley (ยฃ4.5m) and Semi Ajayi (ยฃ5.0m).

Grady Diangana (ยฃ5.5m) and Matheus Pereira (ยฃ6.0m) provide some additional width in midfield with Romaine Sawyers (ยฃ5.0m) and Jake Livermore (ยฃ5.0m) operating centrally.

For the second week in a row, Callum Robinson (ยฃ5.5m) has been named as the lone centre-forward.

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

West Bromwich Albion XI: Johnstone; Gibbs, O’Shea, Bartley, Ajayi, Furlong; Diangana, Sawyers, Livermore, M Pereira; C Robinson.

        1. Forza
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Most players chase total points before round points - DCL will still be bought en masse.

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      The end of struijk. Leeds masterclass incoming

    3. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      So Struijk not nailed on? Didn't he have a great game vs Liverpool?

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        He did but he is very young and very much not first choice

  4. MoSalalalalalalalalah
    • 7 Years

    Points not updating.

  5. Kaneyonero

    The DCL is a donkey crowd are notably silent now..

    1. Ady87
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      It’s 10 man WBA, chill

    2. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I own him, but he's still Donkey Calvert Lewin. Last goal came off the back of his head when he wasn't looking

    3. BENOIT
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      A donkey could have scored the goals he has, tbf

    4. Third Eye Vision
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      He scored 13 goals last season with arguably the second worst midfield in the league.

      He’s going to get 15-20 goals this season.

      1. tm370
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Exactly this. Said this yesterday. He is incredible in the air.

  12. BenDavies
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Have to hope DCL owners don't also own Rodriguez....would offset not owning DCL

  13. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    DCL triple rise this week

  14. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Everton have broken FPL.

    That tops off 2020 for me.

    1. diabydoesgallas
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Hahaha. Very true

  15. jia you
    • 9 Years

    Nightmare start having the wrong Everton triple up ๐Ÿ™

  16. Stupendous
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Wilson to DCL I feel perhaps

    Maybe Ings even

    1. Neevesy
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Ings and Adams likely to share goals. I'd go Ings to DCL personally

  17. Party time
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Did Digne grab the assist for DCL’s hat trick?

      1. Alnair
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        James

        1. Party time

      2. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        DCL fail.

      3. Alnair
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        No DCL but absolutely chuffed with James so far

        1. Keep Calm and Play On
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Same here but DCL will be coming in as well, Hames just pulling all the strings going forward, I see Everton scoring a lot this season

      4. Niho992
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        I was so close to do Son to James, but i bottle it ffs

        1. BERGKOP
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Fortune favours the brave

      5. xHaTr
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        DCL what a hero!

      6. Keep Calm and Play On
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Even with the DCL hat trick he still hasn’t punished us Hames owners to badly only 4 points in it (5 with bonus) but with him coming off hoping Hames can get another!

        1. IRBOX โšฝ
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Having both is ideal

      7. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        PLEASE DIGNE GET SOMETHING

            • 12 Years

            We’ve been unlucky with Digne

      9. Ady87
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        This is torturous.

      10. MoSalalalalalalalalah
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Both DCL and Diangana off now, so I can relax

      11. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Sold Hames on WC to get Bruno FFS

      12. Pedram
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Thank god DCL got subbed, he was doing too much damage to my ranking

      13. F_Ivanovic
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        42 points last week and took a -4 hit this week. Own zero Everton & Periera is on the bench for me.

        1. F_Ivanovic
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          meanwhile people in my mini league are sat there with triple Everton (one even captained DCL) and are on 30+ points

      14. AIRMILES
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        WTF!!! I go out at 1-0 to go and sell an iPad to someone. I come back and it's 5-2!
