Raphinha and Phillips start as Leeds visit Burnley in Blank Gameweek 36

Leeds are boosted by the return of two key starting players as they travel to Burnley on Saturday lunchtime.

After assisting in his substitute’s appearance against Spurs, Raphinha (£5.5m) makes a full return from his recent injury by featuring from the beginning this afternoon.

The Brazilian could be stationed on the right-hand side of a Leeds’ midfield-quartet, perhaps joined there by fellow winger Jack Harrison (£5.5m) as well as Mateusz Klich (£5.2m) and out-of-position Fantasy Premier League defender Stuart Dallas (£5.4m).

However, a 3-3-1-3 formation is also a possibility, which could feature Raphinha and Harrison either side of Patrick Bamford (£6.5m).

Leeds’ prospects are also improved by Kalvin Phillips‘ (£4.9m) first start since Gameweek 33.

Burnley’s shape is much easier to figure out with Sean Dyche going with his usual 4-4-2 formation.

The biggest news coming out of the Clarets’ camp is, of course, the shoulder injury to Nick Pope (£5.5m), keeping him out of Blank Gameweek 36.

Bailey Peacock-Farrell (£4.0m) comes in for the England international but is protected by the usual first-choice back-four of Charlie Taylor (£4.4m), Ben Mee (£4.7m), James Tarkowski (£5.3m) and Matt Lowton (£4.4m).

Dwight McNeil (£5.7m) and Josh Brownhill (£4.9m) provide the width today while Chris Wood (£6.5m) and Matej Vydra (£4.8m) lead the line together for the ninth time in the last 10 Premier League matches.

Blank Gameweek 36 Line-ups

Burnley XI: Peacock-Farrell; C Taylor, Mee, Tarkowski, Lowton; McNeil, Westwood, Cork, Brownhill; Wood, Vydra.

Leeds United XI: Meslier; Alioski, Struijk, Llorente, Ayling; K Phillips; Harrison, Dallas, Klich, Raphinha; Bamford.

    Can somebody explain the rule as to why that was a Raphina assist? He passed it to Klich in his own half which feels a bit weird to give.

      Last players to complete the pass to the player who scored so it counts as a FPL assist. Interesting I was reading rules for the Euro2020 fantasy and they say if a player goes on a solo run and scores then an assist won't be awarded.

    That Raphinha Watkins Lingard benching dilemma went well 🙁 Should have benched Watkins instead in hindsight.

    The problem is that the assist was jammy in the UCL FF wouldn't have been given.

    Hope some unexpected rotation
