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.

Brentford XI: Fernandez, Goode, Jansson, Norgaard, Roerslev, Jensen, Janelt, Baptiste, Henry, Mbeumo, Wissa

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        mmm, vast majority I'm looking at went for him. Fair enough.

        1. Yes Ndidi
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Just means that those of us that bought him way back at 5.0 were right all along, even if we did bench all his points up to now.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

    5. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      One of them is better on paper.

  13. Zalk
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Exactly the reason you go for Dennis over King

  14. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Cleverley assist as well, dreamboat stuff

  15. BIG TONES
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

  22. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Us morons who bought King. Dennis was cheaper with more points. Utterly brainless stuff.

  23. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    King hits the post who I own and of course Dennis scores from the resulting corner who everyone else has lol

  24. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      And then swap to Dennis, guess what who will score next week? 😛

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

        Can’t catch a break this season

  27. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Great start to the wildcard!

  28. LE CHARO
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Didn't know Dennis had that type of goals in his locker too. Definitely a great addition to my team.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Same

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

    I'm laughing into my beer once again about all the FPL hipsters giving chapter and verse to the mere mortals about King's amazing numbers and why he's a superior option to Dennis.

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

      Sounds like you don’t need our help mate. Just keep getting whoever got most points the week prior

    2. Sergeant Slaughter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago
