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.

Blank Gameweek 36 so far…

    Bamford now a rotation risk? Not sure I want him now

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah.

      Even if he starts he’s a bigger 60’ min risk.

      Bielsa has taken him off recently early too...

    Bought Mahrez for -4 as knew that Lowton would at max scores 2

    Mahrez plays 0 minutes

    "Well, at least I'll get Lowton's 1-2 points"

    5. FPL_Crisis

      Ah you went Meslier in the end.
      I held Mendy in the hope Forster starts
      Got Harrison and Dallas too

    Harrison is the player who has really gone under the FFS radar.

    All the love for 'exciting' players like Raphinha, Lamptey, Trossard.

    Harrison one of the highest scoring players in FPL and one of the cheapest.

    1. Nightcrawler
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Thats becuase when both are fit rsphina is the better oick and more assures of starts

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Better pick and more assured of starts*

        1. diesel001
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Harrison has missed something like 3 league games in like 100 matches for Leeds. Two of those were against his parent club.

          1. Nightcrawler
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            I didnt say missing game i said not starting game. He has not startes a few games this season whereas raph pretty much has unless injured or returning from injury

            Also coming into this game raph had more attackig returns from around 500 mins less

    2. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      He's also played the most minutes out of those

      1. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        That's a good thing. Generally, more minutes is correlated with more points.

    3. DycheDycheBaby
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Meslier in the baps!!

      1. DycheDycheBaby
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Reply fail.

  11. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Glad I went Antonio over Bambam

  12. pjomara

    Damn, why don't I practice what I preach with Leeds assets!?!

    1. Nomar

      Good calls.

  13. A. PRISE
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    I can guarantee you that there are conference players that are way better than J Rodriguez. I actually know a few

  14. The Senate
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Bamford you utter utter waste of space

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      yep, useless

  15. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    A. Play Bamford. Bench Watkins

    B. Play Watkins. Bench Bamford

    C. Watkins to Antonio for free. Bench Bamford.

  16. Fudgy
    • 6 Years

    Pure luck for Antonio punters thinking they are clever

    1. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Just that he actually has something to play for

      1. George Sillett
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Ignore him. He's being a tool as usual.

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Not pure luck. Personally think the choice between Bamford, Antonio and Wood this week was a tough one. None of them are top level strikers, but on their day can get goals.

    3. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Own goal and red card incoming

  17. @persecuted_by_mods
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Worst signing of the season Rodrigo

      1. Traction Engine Foot
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        He's no Brewster

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            5 years, 1 month ago

            I was being facetious, he's got 9 returns from 12 games worth of minutes in an injury ridden season in a new league

      2. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I think Bam will start next one together with Rodrigo. Klich probably moves to the bench or maybe Dallas back at full back

      3. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Just been back and look at the scoresheet, where is my Bamford point?

        1. Eze Really?
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I would be concerned about getting anymore points from him. (smile) Until the season end I mean.

      4. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Struijk is a bargain at 4.2

        1. Paqueta Rice
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          First sub here...

      5. tokara
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        but harrison is not consistent

      6. not_astarte
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Wood the clown =0
        Veltman 25% chance of playing
        Am done for today!!

      7. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Thank you Harrison for easing the pain of my -4 Ederson nightmare. Now, if Leeds could just concede to remove those Dallas CS please?

      8. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Rodrigo nearly the hatty wow

      9. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Rodrigo hungry for it!

      10. DycheDycheBaby
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Meslier in the baps!!

      11. 272MK
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Come on Dallas. Score a brace

      12. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Messlier 1 bonus...

      13. HellasLEAF
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Brings Bamford back in for Nacho

        Rodrigo steals show...

      14. Neo-Viper
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Zaha and JWP to Harrison and St. Maximin for a hit?
