Ralph Hasenhüttl has made just one change to his Southampton side as they travel to Burnley in Gameweek 3.

The Saints were opened up time and time again in a 5-2 home defeat to Spurs last Sunday but, despite that poor result, Jack Stephens (£5.0m) is the only player to lose his place.

Jannik Vestergaard (£4.5m) comes into the back-four as Stephens drops to the bench, while key Fantasy assets Alex McCarthy (£4.5m) and Kyle Walker-Peters (£4.5m) retain their starting berths in defence.

It is also an unchanged attacking setup for Southampton as Moussa Djenepo (£5.5m) and Stuart Armstrong (£5.5m) provide the width for Danny Ings (£8.4m) and Che Adams (£5.9m).

Meanwhile, Burnley are painfully short of key players once again, especially in defence. Sean Dyche is forced into pairing Jimmy Dunne (£4.0m) with Kevin Long (£4.5m) at centre-back.

Dale Stephens (£4.5m) makes his debut in central midfield, while a shortage of wider options pushes Josh Brownhill (£5.0m) onto the right.

Chris Wood (£6.5m) leads the line, as per usual, but injuries to his team-mates means a first Premier League start of the season for Matej Vydra (£5.0m).

Burnley XI (4-4-2): Pope; C Taylor, Dunne, K Long, Bardsley; McNeil, Westwood, D Stephens, Brownhill; Vydra, Wood.

Southampton XI (4-4-2): A McCarthy; Bertrand, Bednarek, Vestergaard, Walker-Peters; Djenepo, Ward-Prowse, Romeu, Armstrong; Adams, Ings.

      Only due to fpl would I settle down to watch Burnley Southampton on a Saturday night and hoping for a 0-0

      Move. I've just done it and can then set and forget and focus on my mid/def.

      * I still have Havertz for Chelsea 'coverage' though.

  10. BenDavies

    McCarthy owners, would you rather have no shots against him for the rest of the match and keep a clean sheet for 6 points OR have another shot at him for a 70-30% chance of 8 points/3 points?

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      6 rather

    2. MSTRKRFTSMN
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      6

    3. TRIPOS TOPPER
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      the former for sure

      After 2 pts and zero points 6 would be gold

    4. AIRMILES
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      I'll take the 6 points.
