Broja benched as Hasenhuttl opts for Adams and Armstrong up front

Gameweek 11 gets underway at St Mary’s Stadium tonight as Southampton play host to Aston Villa.

Kick-off is at 20:00 BST.

Southampton, who have taken seven points from their last three matches, make just the one change as Stuart Armstrong (£5.8m) replaces Nathan Redmond (£5.9m), who missed training this week and is isolating.

That means Che Adams (£6.8m) and Adam Armstrong (£5.9m) lead the line again, with popular budget forward Armando Broja (£5.0m) a substitute after overcoming an ankle injury.

As for Villa, Dean Smith makes three changes from the side that lost 4-1 to West Ham United in Gameweek 10, as captain Tyrone Mings (£4.9m), Axel Tuanzebe (£4.5m) and Anwar El Ghazi (£5.7m) come in for Kortney Hause (£4.4m) and Jacob Ramsey (£4.5m), who both drop to the bench, plus the suspended Ezri Konsa (£4.9m).


GAMEWEEK 11 LINE-UPS

Southampton XI: McCarthy, Livramento, Bednarek, Salisu, Walker-Peters, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Elyounoussi, S Armstrong, Adams, A Armstrong

Subs: Forster, Lyanco, Long, Perraud, Broja, Djenepo, Tella, Diallo, Walcott

Aston Villa XI: Martinez, Cash, Tuanzebe, Mings, Targett, Nakamba, McGinn, Bailey, Buendia, El Ghazi, Watkins

Subs: Steer, Young, Hause, Philogene-Bidace, Chukwuemeka, Archer, Davis, A Ramsey, J Ramsey

      It's as if Dean Smith wants to be sacked!

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years

      9 lives...

    have exact cash for Havertz & Coady to Jota & TAA. afraid Taa rises tonight. mad to do it before IB?

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Almost. Create plan B fast? TAA is not essential with these fixtures.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Coady is a question mark and you can play Livra next week.

    2. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Think its a solid transfer but come end of IB and strategies might be completely different. Hold imo

    3. Sailboats
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Hold. A lot can happen in 2 weeks

    4. The White Pele
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      cheers all

  3. ZeBestee

    We take this game so serious. Need to relax and watch the game without thinking of fpl.

    1. yousunkmybattleship
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Behave

    2. noquarternt
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It’s always a cesspit here when games are on, come back in the week.

    3. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      That’s like asking a alcoholic in a lively pub to remain sober

      1. im1974
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I tried that earlier but many pints later you’re right.......!!

    Livramento having a poor game...can't see that CS being maintained

    1. el polako
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He's a 4.0m defender, playing for Saints - anything more than 2pts is a bonus.

    2. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It's Southampton playing, Livra happened to be part of the team. Can't see CS being lost but lets see what the 2nd half brings.

    3. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Cheap defender isnt infalliable?

      Noòooooop

  5. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Villa have woke up

    1. CheesyZoot
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Have they started using proper pronouns?

  6. All The Aces
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    El Ghazi is going to ruin my night here. I’ve always hated the guy.

    1. All The Aces
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      If I were Hasenhuttl, I’d be sticking one on the ref. He’s absolutely done a number in Southampton here.

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        What about the clear pen he (and VAR) never gave Villa?

  7. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Is Livramento having a good game or a poor game?
    Mixed messages on here and I'm not watching the game.

    1. el polako
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Quiet game and Villa is putting pressure on in 2nd half.

    2. AIRMILES
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Mostly good, but lost the ball out of position recently. Just lack of experience.

    3. im1974
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      How he plays is irrelevant. It’s fpl points that matter

  8. AIRMILES
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Livramento owners not so cocky now.

    1. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      That’s literally every serious player.

  9. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    This is why I don't trust southampton, can fall apart at any time

    1. AIRMILES
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It's like they just needed half time to remind themselves that they're southampton, and need to stop playing so well.

  10. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Saints hanging on...

  11. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Buendia should be taken back to the Championship where he belongs. PL is a step too far ahead for him.

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      championship is a stretch

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It's amazing how many players tear it up the Championship only to flop in the Premier League. The step up is enormous.

      I was so sure Taarabt would do well...

  12. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Saints defender inc, Livra off before 60?

    1. Spg76
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Armstrong

      1. HonestBlatter
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        S.

    2. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Cheeky goal with his last touch before taking a couple of minutes to stroll off with a gangster limp and 15 points to his name

  13. Spg76
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Southampton getting battered here

  14. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Villa bought well, but they underestimated the time it will take for them to bond together. That may cost their Manager his job, who I think is more than decent. Adaptation takes time hope he is given this whole season at least.

    Note to Livra. At 60 min grab your calf

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      😀

  16. Rainer

    Livra been poor.

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      On 2 bonus currently

  17. WVA
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Livra clean sheet points added and he's on 2 BAPS!

    What minute will he lose it all? We love conceding after 90!

    1. TomSaints
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      77th

  18. Amartey Partey
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Livramento is currently on 2 bonus points.

    1. HonestBlatter
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Time to sub him

  19. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Romeu the card magnet

  20. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Bailey conversion

  21. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Not sure if I want Livra to concede or not. Have him 1st sub so might be useful but also doubt I’ll need my bench this week

  27. DavidKent
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2 years, 5 months ago

    Is now, between GW11 and GQ12, a good time to play wildcard?

    I’d only to make 4/5 transfers but thinking there are no DGWs this side of Xmas, it’s international break so can deal with injuries, and Spurs players suddenly look interesting.

    Or would you guys wait until we’re closer to Xmas, we have fixture congestion and the transfer window is open.
