Gameweek 16 gets underway this evening as Brentford play host to Watford, with Fantasy interest mostly centred around the attacking players on show.

Kick-off is at 20:00 GMT.

Brentford, who have won just once in eight Premier League games, are without Ethan Pinnock (£4.6m) because he has tested positive for Covid-19, plus Sergi Canos (£5.5m) who is suspended.

As a result, Mathias Jensen (£4.9m) and Yoane Wissa (£5.9m) come into the starting XI, with the latter expected to partner Bryan Mbeumo (£5.5m) up front in Thomas Frank’s 3-5-2 formation.

Elsewhere, Ivan Toney (£6.6m) misses a second successive match, also with Covid-19.

As for Watford, Claudio Ranieri makes three changes from the 3-1 defeat to Manchester City in Gameweek 15, with Jeremy Ngakia (£4.3m), Juraj Kucka (£5.5m) and Cucho Hernandez (£5.0m) replacing Danny Rose (£4.2m), Imran Louza (£5.2m) and Joao Pedro (£5.4m), all of whom drop to the bench.

That means Emmanuel Dennis (£5.7m) and Josh King (£5.8m) both feature in attack once again, with their Fantasy Premier League (FPL) ownerships now sitting at 29.6% and 7.9% respectively.

      All goals are after set pieces. Sometimes just a long time after.

        Not when you lose Sanchez Son Reguilon to COVID

        1. Bennerman
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          What, and don't replace them? Or some of them?

      3. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years

  15. banskt
    • 12 Years

    Hopefully that would seal the 3 bonus points for Dennis.

  16. Differentiator
    • 10 Years

    Bachmann embarassing

  17. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Watford's distaste for clean sheets is pretty consistent

    Always nice to know what you like and don't like

    1. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Still without a clean sheet all seaon.

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      It's been coming most of this second half, to be fair.

  18. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    King clean sheet gone

  19. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Forss!!! If the Bre coach (who is he?!?) just would understand that Forss is essential 🙂

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Far better than Mboomo

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

        Assists per minutes is a stat that doesn't lie 🙂

  20. RogDog_jimmy

    Bachman should get a yellow for that dive after the goal.
    Pathetic.

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

    Need to update the carol:

    O come, O come, Emmanuel,
    And ransom captive David Raya,
    That mourns in lonely exile here,
    Until the Son of Goode appear.
    Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
    Shall come to thee, O Israel.

    O come, Thine cross from Cleverley
    Thine goal from Playbook Ranieri
    From depths of hell Thy Hornets save,
    And give them victory o'er the grave.
    Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
    Shall come to thee, O Israel.
