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.

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

    Wow 30% owned

    Absolute destruction if you don’t own Dennis!

  4. Brazooka
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Get me some more points, Mr. Dennis

  5. WVA
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Literally everyone on here said or got King because his stats are so much better?

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

      I got Dennis cause he gets the FPL points

    2. Hooky
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Unlucky Alf strikes again

    3. CRAZY TRAIN
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I prefer to fly solo

    4. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      If you watch Watford play, you would get Dennis

  6. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    But but but stats!!!

  7. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Took ASM over Wilson, King over Dennis...

  8. FPLMACKEM
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    I had a 50/50 call of king or Dennis. King hits the post then Dennis scores almost straight after.

    Of course I went King didn't I. Oh the margins.

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Dirty mackem!

    2. A. PRISE
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Classic fpl mate. Mostly luck and a bit of skill here and there

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

        I can't complain really. I had my luck by going Wilson and son over Kane and Gallagher for the last few weeks.

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

    Dennis is this seasons Lingard.

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

      Except that he'll get a move to a bigger club on the back of his performances.

  10. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Excellent that he rose so much it tempted people into King

  11. COLLIN QUANER
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Nice rank boost from that. Lovely stuff

    1. Milk, 1 Šuker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Did you take a hit

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

      My green arrow lasted all of 20 mins

  12. Hooky
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    XG my arse

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

    Outrageous bargain at £5.5m when I got him.

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

      Would be nice to get some of his points also 😉 At least he is now my first sub and I have Jota.

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Watford only paid a £4m transfer fee for him

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

    How many points do you get for an XG?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Not many

      But loads of engagement and maybe 25p?

  15. CRAZY TRAIN
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Happy Dennis owner right now.

  16. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Beautiful movement and leap for the goal.

    Perhaps trust the actual stats, not underlying xStats

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

      Beautiful movement? He just stood there!

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Beautiful movement is pushing it slightly - he didn’t move from edge of 6 yard box

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Fair enough.

        I was distracted by the guy behind him!

  17. Pat Bonner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Double up on Watford forwards started off well. Kings turn next

  18. djman102
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    King is a 30-sided die that keeps rolling 2s and 3s.

    Dennis is a 6-sided die that keeps rolling 6s.

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

    So sick of getting these decisions wrong, do something king!

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

    Imagine if someone told you in August you would be picking and choosing whether to get Dennis or King.

    Crazy how it always turns out surprises this game

    1. Milk, 1 Šuker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I know!

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      No decision for me - I’ve got both lol

    3. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Southgate is still deciding

  21. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Dennis proving a menace!!

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

    The casual pick 😎

    1. Hooky
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Are you a casual now?

  23. Ginkapo FPL
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    What happened to Max Baps? Quit after all the awful posting?

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

    King playing the Telles role

  25. tomietucker
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Was gonna go King as the chatter here and penos, havent seen much of watford so was a tough decision.
    Denis had 12 bonus to Kings 5 so i went for the form player.

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

      Points chasing pays off

  26. Johnny too hotty
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Prior to this ganeweek I owned

    Esr, jota, Kane , Toney , Sanchez , Duffy

    Chose king over Dennis. When it rains it really does pour.

  27. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    I went for King because of the 'stats'
    Should be if thought about most important stat -GOALS

  28. Stamford B
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Dennis? Fkin Dennis? You said it was King ffs! I want my money back.

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

    Ffs went King over Dennis

  30. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    And Dennis goes to the top of the strikers.
