Iheanacho and Tierney benched as Son and Kane start for Conte in 3-4-3 formation

There are three Premier League matches kicking off at 14:00 BST today – Arsenal v Watford, Everton v Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds United v Leicester City.

Mikel Arteta makes one change from Gameweek 10, as Ainsley Maitland-Niles (£5.3m) comes in for Thomas Partey (£5.0m), who is out with a tight groin.

That means Nuno Taveres (£4.3m) keep his place at left-back, with Kieran Tierney (£4.8m) on the bench, while Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.1m) leads the line alongside Alexandre Lacazette (£8.3m), having scored six goals in five Premier League appearances against Watford.

Claudio Ranieri makes five changes, with Kiko Femenia (£4.4m), Danny Rose (£4.2m), Nicolas Nkoulou (£4.5m), Ozan Tufan (£5.0m) and Emmanuel Dennis (£5.2m) all amongst the starting XI.

At Goodison Park, Antonio Conte takes charge of his first Premier League game as Tottenham Hotspur Head Coach, and sticks with the same XI that beat Vitesse on Thursday.

Rafael Benitez, meanwhile, makes three changes from Gameweek 10, with Lucas Digne (£5.2m), Fabian Delph (£4.4m) and Anthony Gordon (£4.5m) replacing Mason Holgate (£4.2m), Jean-Philippe Gbamin (£4.5m) and Alex Iwobi (£5.8m).

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£8.0m) and midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.4m) remain on the sidelines. 

Elsewhere, Leeds United make just one change, with Adam Forshaw (£4.5m) coming in for Jamie Shackleton (£4.5m), while Brendan Rodgers has benched Kelechi Iheanacho (£7.0m) and James Maddison (£6.7m), with Ademola Lookman (£6.0m) and Harvey Barnes (£6.5m) flanking Jamie Vardy (£10.8m) up front.

      He literally always does silly stuff like this, could be on for double digit hauls with bps but ruins it

        This time it was for a reason at least. He dedicated the goal to a Brazilian singer who died in a plane crash last week

    Surely they will ditch the "shirt off" YC rule. Is it offensive to bear one's chest?

    1. Cilly Bonnolly

      RAWWWWWWRRR!!!

      I read it's to do with sponsorship. Robs the team sponsor of their match highlight. Money rules as ever

        Sponsor tattoos are the future

    25 minutes gone and you take your shirt off before conceding a minute later.

      I also told you about Barnes. I didn’t go for him in the end. He had a sickness midweek.

    Raphinha only scored 6 goals last season. He's already on 5 this time around.

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years

  16. WVA

  21. AIRMILES

    That Arsenal fan has whistled "the referee's a w*nker" at every home game for at least 5 years.

    1. DARE TO BISCAN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Do they still have the one that screams every time they concede?

  22. Ze_Austin
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Switched stations to catch a reply of the Raph goal. Was treated to that stunner from Barnes

  25. Rainer

  28. Duke Silver ☑
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Usually we berate players for taking their shirts off but in this case it looks like he was doing a tribute to someone.

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

    Another very lucky Raphina goal, it's the second time one of his crosses has gone in
