There’s a busy Saturday of Premier League football ahead of us, with Leicester City v Chelsea the first of eight matches.

Kick-off at the King Power Stadium is at 12:30 GMT.

Thomas Tuchel and Brendan Rodgers have both made two changes for the lunchtime game.

Daniel Amartey and Marc Albrighton are brought in to replace injured pair Youri Tielemans and Ricardo Pereira, which could mean that the Foxes are turning to a wing-back system – as Rodgers has done in the past when facing the Blues.

Jamie Vardy, the most-owned Fantasy Premier League (FPL) player in this fixture, starts.

Mason Mount is back in the Chelsea starting XI after his recent teething problems, while Trevoh Chalobah starts as the right-sided centre-half.

Ross Barkley and Andreas Christensen are the men to make way from the 1-1 draw with Burnley, while there is a fourth successive league benching for Cesar Azpilicueta.

The fit-again Timo Werner is also among the substitutes.

All of that means that there are further starts for Reece James and Ben Chilwell, with the former now the most-owned Chelsea asset in FPL overall (24.2%) and within the top 10,000 (60.1%).

The ownership figures of Vardy and Antonio Rudiger have taken a bit of a tumble in the top 10k (see below), which is often a better gauge of active Fantasy managers than the ‘selected by’ numbers we see on the FPL site.

Vardy and Rudiger had top 10k ownership figures of 52.7% and 35.0% in Gameweek 11.

GAMEWEEK 12 LINE-UPS

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Amartey, Evans, Soyuncu, Albrighton, Ndidi, Soumare, Castagne, Lookman, Vardy, Barnes.

Subs: Ward, Bertrand, Vestergaard, Dewsbury-Hall, Choudhury, Maddison, Perez, Iheanacho, Daka.

Chelsea XI: Mendy, Chalobah, Thiago Silva, Rudiger, James, Kante, Jorginho, Chilwell, Mount, Hudson-Odoi, Havertz.

Subs: Arrizabalaga, Alonso, Azpilicueta, Christensen, Loftus-Cheek, Barkley, Ziyech, Pulisic, Werner.

    Got a player involved in all of the 10 fixtures this weekend so every goal alert has the potential to thrill or disappoint.

    Chelsea’s kits are always disgusting.

    Imagine wearing that out on road.

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

      I absolutely love our yellow kits. Wouldn't look good on me, but then again I'm pale AF & not an athlete. Looks good on the players.

    2. Piggs Boson

      I love a yellow kit.

  14. Atimis

    Last minute benched Vardy to play Livra - now see me burn!

    Just can hope he will keep his poor record vs Chelsea

  15. Scots Gooner

    • 9 Years

    Oh Chilwell,vwhat a chance

    1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Are you watching in space?

      1. Scots Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        No. Watching a toddler, so slightly behind

  16. Babit1967
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    No1 overall has an almost identical team to me, yet so far apart in points 🙁

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      He had the players before they hauled 😉

      1. Babit1967

        True story there lol

  17. Alexis Nonsense

    Wonder why iheanacho doesn't play more

    Rodgers look like a fool not starting him

    1. Marvin.
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      He isn't very good?

      1. Scots Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        He was great last season

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Must be his defensive contribution because he always seems fantastic on the ball whenever I've watched him.

      1. Alexis Nonsense
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I haven't watched many games, but his high workrate is often mentioned...

        Anyway, hope he gets a move so he can play regurarly

    Ultimately after all the thinking and tinkering, I decided to be boring and roll transfer, even though I had a WC to use.

    It is a huge risk, but I just did not want to take a hit for either of Kane, Son or Jota.

    Hopefully (for me) it works, but if it does not, I'll fix it all next GW.

    1. CoracAld2831
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      For information purposes, I kept Havertz and Vardy and rolled.

      Noted with thanks.

  19. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    I just got James in. People don't complain if he blanks.

  20. MikeS

    Would you bench boost this?
