The last of four Premier League matches to take place on Sunday is the late kick-off at the King Power Stadium, with Burnley the visitors to Leicester.

Play gets underway at 19:00 BST.

Jamie Vardy (£10.1m) is the most-owned player on show in this game, with almost one in four Fantasy Premier League managers owning the Leicester City striker.

He is part of an unchanged starting XI, with James Maddison (£7.0m) again having to be content with a place on the bench.

After blanking in Gameweek 1, Burnley finally get their 2020/21 league campaign off and running.

As was the case at the end of last season, the Clarets are down to the bare bones.

Johann Berg Gudmundsson (£5.5m) picked up an injury in midweek, joining Ashley Barnes (£6.0m), Ben Mee (£5.0m) and Jack Cork (£5.0m) on the sidelines.

James Tarkowski (£5.5m) has also failed to recover from a “bruised toe”, so budget FPL defender Jimmy Dunne (£4.0m) is handed his first-ever Premier League start.

Robbie Brady (£5.0m), rather than an ‘out of position’ Erik Pieters (£4.5m), gets the nod in Gudmundsson’s absence.

Nick Pope (£5.5m), the leading FPL points-scorer among goalkeepers last season, is between the posts and is the only Burnley asset who boasts a double-digit ownership.

No goalkeeper kept more clean sheets away from home than Pope (seven) in 2019/20, although six of them came against clubs who finished in the bottom half.

Vardy registered 17 attacking returns at home last season, which no other FPL forward could top.


Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Castagne, Ndidi, Soyuncu, Justin, Mendy, Ayoze Pérez, Tielemans, Praet, Barnes, Vardy.

Burnley XI: Pope, Bardsley, Long, Dunne, Taylor, Brady, Brownhill, Westwood, McNeil, Wood, Rodríguez.

      Won't get CS point though...

  2. Firminooooo
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Was just writing Justin to give my team justice. Then I see CS is gone.

  3. FPL Daniel
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I knew it Barnes and Richarlison are good punt this week that's why I have them both on Fan Team

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      6 years, 1 month ago

      Could have sold Havertz for either in FPL.

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 1 month ago

        It was dangerous I could have sold Son instead so I am happy. Did you sell Mitro like you planned?

          Sort your team link.

          1. FPL Daniel
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Will do

  4. Khalico
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Keep Callum Wilson vs Spurs or shift for someone 6.5m or less for free transfer? I dont see Newcastle doing good in the next run of fixtures. Any suggestions?

    1. ivantys
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Sell him, newcastle can't attack.

      1. Khalico
        6 years, 1 month ago

        who should I get within 6.5m or less for a few weeks.

        1. ivantys
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Tough choice, i would say chris wood or mitrovic or maupay.

    2. Von Lipwig
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah I have this problem. I'm thinking of going 2 up top and bringing in a value midfielder instead. There a good few options around 6.5m

  5. Niho992

    Perez idiot

    Repost

    Hey guys, is Davies expected to be dropped next week from Spurs signing a new LB?

    Cheers

  7. The Wizard of Ozil
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Sold Son this week (& kept Havertz)

    Would you WC this lot? Have already took a hit to brink KDB & Jimi in

    McCarthy* (Nyland)
    Tierney* - Egan* - Dallas* (Taylor,Mitchell)
    Salah - KDB - JRod - Havertz* (Bassouma*)
    Jiménez - Warner - Mitrovic

    * Players would most likely leave on WC with DLC maybe in up from aswell

    1. Hiroku
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Doesn't look too bad, maybe hold on for a while longer, at least until the end of the transfer window?

      1. The Wizard of Ozil
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah just worried about price drops, have saying that that’s the reason I sold son

  8. ivantys
    6 years, 1 month ago

    damn castagne stole vardy's assist

  9. BenDavies
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Charlie Taylor past two seasons.
    18/19 - 1 assist
    19/20 - 1 assist

    1 game in 20/21 - 1 assist.

    Thats him done for the next 37 gameweeks unfortunately.

  10. Hiroku
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Who to get in midfield around the 5.5M bracket?

    A) Klich - 0.1M extra, but on penalties
    B) Hélder Costa - looks more dangerous out of the two wide players
    C) Harrison - had better underlying stats in GW1

    or

    D) Podence - great fixtures, might be a starter with Jota gone and a snip playing OOP, but not nailed

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

      I think Podence but can’t you wait until tomorrow?

      1. Hiroku
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah will definitely wait until after the Wolves game, just weighing up all options in advance in case I need to pull the tricker quickly to avoid price changes!

  11. Von Lipwig
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I thought Havertz, especially in combo with Werner, looked great today before the game was ruined. Discuss...

    1. diabydoesgallas
      6 years, 1 month ago

      They defo looked sharp to begin with. Ultimately we’ll know far more after the match against West Brom.

    2. Hiroku
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Looked far sharper and more comfortable playing "as a striker".
      Maybe one to watch once the injured players come back in.

    3. Greasy Grealish Gang
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I disagree on Havertz but believe Werner looked good. Havertz will come good nonetheless.

      1. La Roja
        6 years, 1 month ago

        This

    4. Plant Based FPLer
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A penalty box like in hockey would be interesting. Christensen could've been given 15 minutes in the box instead of a send off.

    5. Zilla
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah looked better, still needs to be centralized.

    6. Belalugozi78
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Chelsea created nothing in first half. Havertz played better than week ago but still not good enough to say he looked great. His "new " position may suit him better in next games.

  12. Rassi
    6 years, 1 month ago

    YES! Barnes! Thank you!

  13. Liberate HK - antichinazi

  14. have you seen cyan

    Has Wood ever scored a hatti?

    1. La Roja
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah

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

        😀

  15. Niho992
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Have Barnes but think thats Perez goal

  16. Cok3y5murf
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Barnes xG+ and also points+

  17. FPL Daniel
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Is there anyone worse than Kepa?

    1. Piggs Boson
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Hitler maybe

      1. Ser Davos
        6 years, 1 month ago

        even he saved the Wehrmacht at Moscow 1941

    2. Von Lipwig
      6 years, 1 month ago

      no

    3. Red Red Robins
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Phil Neville

    4. Von Lipwig
      6 years, 1 month ago

      As a chelsea fan it's just so painful to see all the pre season optimism crushed because he's so poor

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 1 month ago

        He is so poor what he was doing with that Mane goak

  18. Flynny

        Need to see the game tomorrow.

    3. Fero1905
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Werner last chance against wba

    4. FFSbet.com
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Would go C now,when Pulisic and Ziyech are back switch to Werner

  19. FFSbet.com
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Castagne could be good pick,going in box often

  20. Gazpilicueta
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Which GK price bracket do you think has the best value this year?

    A) 4.5 Mislier
    b) 5.0 Pickford
    c) 5.5 Schmiechel
    d) 6 Allison

    points per cost etc. where do you think the value lies? I cant see pope getting a similar score to what he did last year.

    1. MrZ
      6 years, 1 month ago

      4.5 Ryan

      1. Dr. Rog
        6 years, 1 month ago

        only problem with Ryan is it chews up brighton slots.

        Ryan Walton Lamptey Bissouma

        i think might go with the villa keeper - at some point they get a double GW as well

    2. Dr. Rog
      6 years, 1 month ago

      a 4.5 that gets saves

  21. jimmyabs1987
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Yes Barnes!

  22. Brosstan
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Perez always does that, tries to steal goals that are already going in. Did it last game as well but there was already offside in the build up

    1. OPTA FPL
      6 years, 1 month ago

      lol

  23. grooveymatt65
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Hi guys, would you wildcard this lot or just do some transfers?

    My team is:

    McCarthy Martin

    TAA, Ayling, Justin Mitchell Bernado

    Salah Son Aubameyang (c) Alli Bissouma

    Werner Mitrovic Adams

    (0.0 itb)

    2ft.

    thanks!!!

  24. ivantys
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Barnes+Zaha punts working perfect

    1. diabydoesgallas
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Well played.

  25. elbow
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Really no clue what do do here. Should I wildcard this team?

    McCarthy (Steer)

    TAA - Robertson - Vinagre - Davies - Justin

    Salah - Auba - ASM - Bissouma - Reed

    Martial - Werner - Adams

    To start with, Vinagre, Davies, Bissouma and ASM have to go purely because they will not or are extremely unlikely to play at all. That's already 4 players that need to be removed, and that's just patching up the foundations before I get near bringing in in-form players.

    On top of that, I wanted to do Auba > KDB, drop Adams, and try and get some Everton and Wolves players in. And although it's only one week Man U looked absolutely abysmal so I'm not adverse to dropping Martial too.

    Any advice appreciated! Cheers.

    No offside check on Perez? Wanted to see it :I

    Thoughts on this premium 4-4-2 wc:

    guaita
    taa saiss sakho taylor
    salah kdb sterling soucek
    jesus dcl

    4.0 Ferguson 4.5mid 4.5 fwd

  28. Zilla
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Need some opinions, would you WC this team or hold?

    McCarthy
    TAA Egan Bavies Dallas
    Salah Auba James ASM
    Werner Martial

    1. Zilla
      6 years, 1 month ago

      rest are fodder

  29. Niho992
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I hope that will stay as Barnes goal

  30. AdamJ91
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Auba, Tierney & JWP > Sterling, Zaha & Saiss/R.James? (-8).

    Not sure on the hit tbh but I guess long term surely works out?

    1. diabydoesgallas
      6 years, 1 month ago

      If you’re captaining sterling then maybe.
