Wolves’ most popular Fantasy Premier League defender Romain Saïss (£5.2m) has been handed another outing at left wing-back.

Following the departure of Ruben Vinagre (£4.3m) and an injury to Marçal (£4.9m), the Moroccan filled in there for the 1-0 win over Fulham in Gameweek 4.

Despite Marçal making the bench on Monday night, Saïss has held off the competition a little while longer to play a more advanced role than usual.

That also means a second successive start in the back-three for £4.0m defender Max Kilman (£4.0m).

He is joined there by key men Conor Coady (£5.0m) and Willy Boly (£5.5m), while Nelson Semedo (£5.5m) starts as the right-back again.

Meanwhile, it is unchanged front-three for Nuno Espirito Santo as Raúl Jiménez (£8.5m) sits in the middle of Pedro Neto (£5.5m) and Daniel Podence (£5.6m), which means a place on the bench for Adama Traoré (£6.4m).

Neto has offered the best value of any Wolves midfield player so far this season, although he is still owned by fewer managers than the benched Ruben Neves (£5.4m), Joao Moutinho (£5.4m), Podence and Traoré.

Marcelo Bielsa keeps faith with his favoured 4-1-4-1 formation, offering a second start of the season to Rodrigo (£5.8m) after his dramatic equaliser against Manchester City.

With veteran Pablo Hernández (£5.8m) on the bench, the Spaniard is deployed in midfield alongside Mateusz Klich (£5.6m) while Patrick Bamford (£5.8m) leads the line once again.

Coming into Gameweek 5, only Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.7m) and Harry Kane (£10.7m) have more owners than Bamford among forwards. And of those in his position priced at £6.0m or less, none have managed as many shots on target as the Leeds man.

Leeds United XI (4-1-4-1): Meslier; Dallas, Cooper, Koch, Ayling; K Phillips; Harrison, Rodrigo, Klich, Costa; Bamford.

Wolves XI (3-4-3): Patrício; Kilman, Coady, Boly; Saïss, Moutinho, Dendoncker, Semedo; Neto, Jiménez, Podence.

  7. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Saiss will get subbed before half time if he keeps this up

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      5 years, 9 months ago

      100% getting booked and possibly off because Neto isn't tracking back and Costa has him on toast

  8. Bruce Lee
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    what did bamford do?

    1. diesel001

    Who to sell for Kane
    1) Wilson
    2) Ings
    3) DCL

    1. Leonard hatred
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Wilson i guess? definitely not DCL.

    2. Zrinkec
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Ings

      1. pug_chops
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Thanks both. I was thinking Wilson initially but it's just what I could do with the extra 2m if I sell Ings. Not sure right now but it could come in handy at some point

  11. Bruce Lee
    • 7 Years

  12. Crouch Potato
    • 14 Years

    Been looking forward to watching Rodrigo play, could be one for the future.

    1. Bruce Lee
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      he is 29

      1. Crouch Potato
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        In relation to fantasy league potential.

        1. Bruce Lee
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          ah okay sorry bro, forgive me?

          1. Crouch Potato
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      How is Costa not booked for that???

      1. No Professionals
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        They need to start using var to punish diving

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      exactly what Bats got a penalty for yesterday.

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

    This is painful to watch only owning Semedo. Sending a sting in an otherwise pretty good week

    1. Bruce Lee
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      who do you want?

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

        I’m 10 points in front in head to head.

        He has Jiminez, Saiss and Podence.

        A low scoring game with Semedo attacking return would be lovely

  17. MOZIL
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Do you think Mitchell will start next one?

    1. Leonard hatred
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      considered playing him but i think he'll get subbed off and lose any CS points.

  18. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    1. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Probably bit his tongue crying. He goes down every game like he’s dying at the slightest touch

  28. No Professionals
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Ref looks like someone has pulled him in off the street to officiate

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      thats what i am thinking
      he looks confused

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Same ref that didn't see Pickford assault VVD and somehow found Mane offside.

  29. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Poor Podence
