Owners of Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.7m) will be hoping he plays through the middle of Everton’s attack against Burnley this afternoon.

The Fantasy Premier League forward has been pushed a little wider in recent matches to get the best out of Richarlison (£8.0m), who has four goals in his last five league outings.

Carlo Ancelotti has typically deployed Gylfi Sigurdsson (£6.8m) behind the pair during that period but his recent ankle injury means the Icelandic international is fit enough only for the bench.

Tom Davies (£5.2m) is his replacement, but Abdoulaye Doucouré‘s (£5.2m) injury leaves Everton short in the middle of the park, so we may see him there alongside André Gomes (£5.3m) and Allan (£5.2m).

With James Rodríguez (£7.7m) still on the sidelines, it is up to Alex Iwobi (£5.9m) to supplement the attack, possibly from the right flank of a front-three.

If that is the setup Ancelotti has selected to face Burnley, then Calvert-Lewin is more suited to leading it in the middle than Richarlison, who had some joy on the left-hand side earlier in the season.

As usual, Burnley are in 4-4-2 formation with Matej Vydra (£4.8m) joining Chris Wood (£6.2m) in attack.

Dwight McNeil (£5.7m) and Johann Berg Gudmundsson (£5.4m) provide the width today while Erik Pieters (£4.3m) comes in for Charlie Taylor (£4.4m) who misses out with a hamstring problem.

Gameweek 28 Line-ups

Everton XI (4-3-3): Pickford; Digne, Godfrey, Keane, Holgate; T Davies, Allan, Gomes; Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin, Iwobi.

Burnley XI (4-4-2): Pope; Pieters, Mee, Tarkowski, Lowton; McNeil, Westwood, Brownhill, Gudmundsson; Wood, Vydra.

Gameweek 28 so far…

Wilfried Zaha (£7.1m) had an immediate impact in his first start since Gameweek 22.

He won the first-half penalty that provided Crystal Palace with a 1-0 victory, forcing a handball from Darnell Furlong (£4.5m).

Harking back to the 2017/18 and 2018/19 seasons, it was Luka Milivojevic (£5.6m) who dispatched the spot kick.

Owners of Chelsea defenders will have been satisfied with yet another toothless display from West Bromwich Albion.

They had just one shot on target on Saturday afternoon while chief creator Matheus Pereira (£5.4m) was substituted in the 63rd minute.

Provisional bonus points

  • 3 – Luka Milivojevic
  • 2 – Vicente Guaita
  • 1 – Joel Ward

      Agreed. Still lets the game flow with a natural rhythm.

    time for Everton to dominate, conquer and colonize that Burnley team.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Don’t worry, they won’t

  13. Moderately content penguin
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Burnley decided to take it to Spurs in the DGW. Same ploy this time against Everton. Will they go again against United in 32? Could be a cracker if they do.

            Does feel captainable that week - unless Kane gets the DGW against Southampton.

            1. Amey
              • 7 Years

    Especially if Bamford is ruled out, I'm considering WC in 29 to field a full XI, thoughts on this lot? Chasing, rivals lacking wc

    Sánchez (Mendy)
    Cresswell / Dallas / Veltman (Dias, Shaw)
    Raphinha / Bale / Son / Saka (KDB)
    Kane / Antonio / Watkins

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Waste of a wildcard. Wait until after 29 to plan for BGW and DGWs.

    WC time? Can get in Kane and Lingard for free, additional transfers would be for a hit.

    Martinez

    1. JBG

      Save WC, better to use 30 or 31.

      I've got Dier as well hahaha absolutely ruined all my planning.

      8/9 with a hit is better than using WC imo

    I can do Fernandez --> Aubameyang with 1FT in gw29 and then the reverse in gw30, but it feels like wasting 2FT?

    a) Go for it
    b) Stones to another defender that's playing gw29
    c) sit tight, 10 players is fine and 2 FT in gw30

    Thanks!
