There may be a few more Stuart Dallas (£5.1m) auto-substitutions being processed in Fantasy Premier League this evening, thanks to a bit of unexpected team news in the final match of Gameweek 31.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.6m), owned by over one-third of all FPL managers, is absent from the Everton squad for the 20:15 kick-off, with an abductor problem the reason for his unavailability.

Carlo Ancelotti said ahead of tonight’s game against Brighton and Hove Albion:

In the last training session, Dom had a little problem on his abductor. He came here but this morning he was not comfortable so I prefer to leave him out. It’s the same with Allan and Andre Gomes – they are not 100%. I hope they will be available for the next game.

The Everton boss’s two alterations to his team are enforced, with Calvert-Lewin and Andre Gomes (£5.3m) both absent through injury.

Ben Godfrey (£5.0m) and Gylfi Sigurdsson (£6.8m) come into the side, with the Toffees including six recognised defenders in their line-up.

Jordan Pickford (£4.8m) and Allan (£5.2m) are still absent.

Earlier in the day, Everton confirmed that Jean-Phillipe Gbamin (£5.0m) is set for assessment on a fresh knee injury that he picked up in training.

Hosts Brighton are unchanged for the third game in a row despite losing at Manchester United last weekend.

Adam Webster (£4.3m) and Dan Burn (£4.2m) are both back from injury and are on the bench at the Amex.


Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Sanchez, White, Dunk, Veltman, Gross, Bissouma, Lallana, Trossard, Moder, Welbeck, Maupay.

Everton XI: Olsen, Coleman, Holgate, Keane, Mina, Digne, James Rodriguez, Godfrey, Davies, Sigurdsson, Richarlison.

    After the neto injury i have some transfer suggestions:

    a) Neto to Harrison
    b) Neto to Bowen and Cancelo to 4,5 defender (-4 hit)
    c) Neto to Podence
    d) Neto to Greenwood and Cancelo to 4,4 defender? Thoughts?

      Not A - think it's premature for Leeds assets and if you're going to bench someone, why not Neto. B brings in the wrong man from West Ham (although if Antonio is out long term it could be a sensible punt). C doesn't get around it's still Wolves. D perhaps but not convinced it's worth a hit.

    Maupay is awful

  3. estheblessed
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Is Kane this GW still the best triple captain option?

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Yes I think so, the possible doubles in 35 don’t look too appealing

      1. estheblessed
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        Thanks for the clarification

    2. Gizzachance

    Digne needs to up his BPS score

  5. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    Dunk has a magnet in his head.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Does it double up as a BPS magnet?

    2. HonestBlatter
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      Heavy metal head he has

  6. Gandalf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    My guess is 88th minute for Everton's winner

  7. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 12 months ago

    What to do here chaps?

    Martinez
    Dallas Digne Cancelo
    Son Salah Gundo Bruno
    Wood Watkins Kane

    Sanchez Veltman Tierney* Raphinha*

    1 FT & 0.8 ITB

    A) Tierney ➡ Semedo
    B) Wood ➡ Iheanacho
    C) Raphinha ➡ Lingard
    D) Do all 3 or 2 of them for -8 or -4

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 12 months ago

      B and maybe C for -4 but maybe lose gundogan over raphinha? Tough one. I did raphinha to jota this week but kinda wish I’d done gundogan instead

      1. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        Not sure, I feel everyone is starting to sell City assets is a mistake and I’d rather to hang onto Gundo. I reckon pep will start to take it seriously now.

        Also Raphinha could be injured anyway 🙂

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 12 months ago

          Fair enough. Didn’t think raphinha injury was that serious...just thinking if gundogan doesn’t play this week, and then he blanks and by that point Leeds fixtures turn nice again

          1. La Roja
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 12 months ago

            That’s actually a good point tbh. Completely forgot about City blank!

  8. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years

    Does SOT increase or decrease baps?

  9. Forza Papac

  10. Pat Bonner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

        • 14 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        Haha! It’s not looking like anyone wants to score

        1. La Roja
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 12 months ago

          Yeah this could save my GW with Watkins and Dallas on my bench ouch

    2. Forgetmeknot

        • 14 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        47 currently but will be loads of auto subs...I’m 50 all out and could be struggling

    KDB chances of starting in the next 2 PL games considering they could only be 8 points behind if UTD beat Burnley this weekend. Pep will want to close out the PL.

    14th April: BVB vs City (QF CL)
    17th April: Chel vs City (SF FAC)
    21st April: Vila vs City (PL)
    25th April: Spurs vs City (Final LC)
    28th April: SF CL
    1st May: CPL vs City (PL)

    i think he gets the Villa game.

    Dan Byrne coming on. F for that one guy who needed him to stay on the bench to get Dallas points.

      At least they're having a go. Everton on the other hand...

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        Are they really having a go...it’s all side ways or backwards. No one actually in the box

      2. A. PRISE
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 12 months ago

        They say Spurs are boring but they at least score. Brighton's aim is always 0-0

  28. La Roja
