Kane aiming to extend eight-game run without a blank as Rodon starts in defence

1,707 Comments

Perhaps the most eagerly anticipated fixture of the weekend sees Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur clash at Stamford Bridge.

Kick-off in west London is at 16:30 GMT.

There are no real surprises in terms of team news, with both managers making just one change apiece from the sides they sent out in Gameweek 9.

Frank Lampard’s sole alteration was widely anticipated, with Thiago Silva (£5.5m) replacing Antonio Rudiger (£4.5m) at the heart of the Blues’ defence.

The fit-again Christian Pulisic (£8.2m) is back among the substitutes, alongside Kai Havertz (£8.3m).

Jose Mourinho’s only tweak to his line-up was an enforced one and also comes at centre-half, with Toby Alderweireld (£5.4m) ruled out with a groin problem.

Premier League rookie Joe Rodon (£5.0m) gets the nod over Davinson Sanchez (£5.3m) to partner Eric Dier (£4.9m).

There is plenty of interest in this one from a Fantasy Premier League perspective, with Harry Kane (£10.9m) and Son Heung-min (£9.5m) the second and third most-owned players in the game.

Five of Chelsea’s starting XI, including three of their back four, also boast double-digit ownerships, with Ben Chilwell (£6.1m) the most popular option among that quintet.

Kane was, in fact, the most-sold forward of Gameweek 10, with just over 200,000 Fantasy managers offloading the England international despite his impressive run of form: not since the opening weekend has the Spurs striker blanked.

Chelsea XI: Mendy, James, Zouma, Thiago Silva, Chilwell, Kante, Kovacic, Mount, Ziyech, Abraham, Werner.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Aurier, Rodon, Dier, Reguilon, Hojbjerg, Sissoko, Ndombele, Bergwijn, Son, Kane.

        Ha-ha! A little bit more clarity would be nice. Also, would give us more stats to analyze the players and their performances. Instead of seeing who gets BAPs, we could see who scores well according to them and is likely to get BAPs if they score/assist/keep CS.

          That’s what I’m hoping. I can do Grealish and Kane to Salah and Bamford/Antonio for free. But I jumped on both Kane and Grealish early and they’ve been great for me so it feels wrong. I have Jota but you just know Mo will haul against Fulham

        Vardy brace and you've comfortably beat him. Very far from lost. Even 1 goal from him can be compensated through Grealish.

      What are your plans about DCL and Robbo (if you own him)
      It also seems that it's time for a 3-5-2 if you decide to drop DCL
