Sunday’s Premier League action continues at Molineux, as Wolverhampton Wanderers host Leicester City at 16:30 GMT.

Notably, this is Wolves’ first Double Gameweek 26 match, with a trip to Arsenal to follow on Thursday.

Bruno Lage makes just one change from last weekend’s 2-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur, with Joao Moutinho coming in for Luke Cundle, who drops to the bench alongside Pedro Neto, who last appeared in April 2021.

For the visitors, James Maddison is only a substitute after feeling unwell in midweek, whilst Harvey Barnes is out because of a tight hamstring.

That means Marc Alrighton and Ademola Lookman line-up on the flanks, supporting lone forward Patson Daka.

Elsewhere, Luke Thomas replaces James Justin, who is out with a muscle injury.


DOUBLE GAMEWEEK 26 LINE-UPS

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Sa, Kilman, Coady, Saiss, Semedo, Dendoncker, Neves, Moutinho, Ait-Nouri, Podence, Jimenez

Subs: Ruddy, Marcal, Neto, Trincao, Silva, Jonny, Toti, Hwang, Cundle

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Pereira, Amartey, Soyuncu, Thomas, Ndidi, Tielemans, Dewsbury-Hall, Albrighton, Lookman, Daka

Subs: Ward, Jakupovic, Maddison, Iheanacho, Perez, Choudhury, Vestergaard, Mendy, Soumare

        They have a DGW! Can easily pay off on Thursday.

        1. Brehmeren
          • 16 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Easily?

          1. Tinkermania
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            It's only Arsenal next match.

            1. Brehmeren
              • 16 Years
              4 years, 4 months ago

              Last time they kept Arsenal from scoring was in 1979.

        2. Tinkermania
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Or Wednesday.

      2. NorCal Villan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Well, yo be fair, the CS was “locked in” 😎

  2. Weak Become Heros

    Is Maddi expected back for the next game?

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Seems pretty likely given he’s on the bench today

      1. Weak Become Heros
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Good stuff. Thanks

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

      Probably come on 2nd half.

    3. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      What happened to him exactly? Could have sworn I read someone here say something about him collapsing

      1. Brehmeren
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        He was unwell during their last match

      2. The Mentaculus
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Subbed during Randers game with unspecified "illness"

  3. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Jimenez has been awful. But he's already got his owners an assist at least.

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

      Did he

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

        When I originally checked no assist was given

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

          Clear assist if you are watching game and added in fpl

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Pretty telling he’s on 10bps when you get 9bps for an assist!

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

    I finally forgive Lookman for taking the penalty against West Ham last year instead of Mitrovic.

  5. jammie26
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Leicester the better team here.

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

    Wolves double defence owners

  7. el polako
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Do we think CR7 would have been just as shite had he joined City not United ?

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

      Would have had plenty of pens and tap ins to score but he's the opposite of what Pep wants up front.

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

        Would have been like lukakus first season at united.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Nope. The team surrounding him at City would have been far better; he could be sensibly rested more.

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
        4 years, 4 months ago

        That's the issue, he wants to play every single game. City wouldn't offer him that he'd be bit part and they wouldn't necessarily play simply to service one player which is what he usually demands too

        Hard to say

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

      Don’t think City were ever serious about signing him. No way even they’d have paid the wages we’re paying

      1. Drexl Spivey
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        You don't seem happy.

    4. HD7
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Interesting question and I agree with the comments before me. He would fit better there and Im a United fan. His minutes were going to be challenged, his team was going to control most games like he is used to. And he was going to have a lot of good deliveries in the box

    5. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      There’s a reason no serious club was interested in him

      1. Duke Silver ☑
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        City were in for him?

    6. NorCal Villan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Perhaps it’s simply the “what you see is what you get” stage of his career

    7. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      City never wanted him.

    8. Percy Johnstone
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      City were never seriously going to sign him imo.

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

    Cmon Coady, grab an assist.

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

    Everyone trippling up on wolves for their explosive attack and water tight defence 😀

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Have zero here!

  10. MrJobby
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Apologies to wolves fans and wolves defender owners
    Every time I bring in a wolves defender they either concede or they get injured in the warm up before the game .

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Apology accepted. Leicester always a tricky game defensively

  11. MrJobby
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Leicester worst team in leave v set pieces and corners so I still have a glimmer of hope for a coady header from a corner . Maybe

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Bad. But not worst!

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

        Sure sky just showed a graphic that had them ranked 20th for conceding from set pieces

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Wow! I thought Leeds are. Thanks!

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

            Leeds are bad at defending full
            Stop , I’ve just looked it up and yeah it’s defo Leicester . 13 goals conceded so far from set pieces before todays game . Everton next with 11 Leeds on 8 which does surprise me to be honest

            1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 4 months ago

              Great info there.

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

                It’s a stat worth noting if you’ve got a player Who’s good at scoring from set pieces against a team that can’t defend set pieces .

                1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
                  • 9 Years
                  4 years, 4 months ago

                  Son Kane combo next week should work well. Weghorst told.

                2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
                  • 9 Years
                  4 years, 4 months ago

                  Too*

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

                    The odds are in their favour but this is FPL never works that way for me sadly

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

    YouTube keeps recommending me videos from someone called "Mark Goldbridge". I am not familiar with him but he seems to talk constant nonsense. How is he so popular?

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      4 years, 4 months ago

      He's an amalgamation of every clueless man utd fan put together

    2. Nightcrawler
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      U don't have to make sense to be popular just loud and controversial

    3. Fantasy Football Friend!
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      He is a made up character. Thats not even his real name and he supports Forest. He pretends to be a United fan because he knows he'll get more views.

  13. Scots Gooner

    Who are the must have GW28 players?

    1. Magic Zico

      It could change if ARS CHE game is slotted in

    Anyone seen wolves double defence owners??

        Most Youtubers do the same thing. They wildcarded this week!

            • 13 Years

            Nothing. just salty non owner

  19. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    FPL Idea - give players on the winning team all one extra point as long as they have played 45 minutes+

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

      Don't like it. De-incentivizes getting players from the 'worse' teams who may still be good FPL assets.

    2. TorresMagic™

      • 17 Years

      Price them accordingly 1st

    Would you FH this? (Assuming I do Salah to Son) only got one FH left

    DDG
    Cancelo Ait-Nouri

    1. Magic Zico

      One FH left probably no ... it's a good team

        Thanks man

    2. The Mentaculus

      Prob not since you only have 3 players for 30

      1. NABIL - FPL otai

        I count 5.. Saka Tierney Ramsey Ait-Nouri Jimmy

    It would be a good time to put a bet on a red card happening 😀

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Yep the referee is so determined to send off someone tonight

    2. FPLrookie2009

      Don't gamble .

    Liverpool, Arsenal, Wolves and Palace defence letting the DGW sides down.

    1. Kannbury
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Couldn't believe it when Arsenal conceded that last minute goal 🙁

      1. NorCal Villan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Arsenal conceding was a gut-punch for me, and it hurt

    2. NorCal Villan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      To be fair, probably was never gonna end well with Palace defense. Your point stands with regard to the others

    3. MrJobby
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I was gutted when arsenal
      Conceded but then realised all
      My rivals Had arsenal defenders anyway but it jumped Saka up to 3 bp which non of my rivals had so it actually worked in my favour. For a change

    Any update on what went down with Foden last night at the Khan/Brook fight? So far the stories I have read are pretty skimpy on details

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Some idiot attacked his mother. Probably doing it for likes on twitter or something these clowns do. That’s about it

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Some rowdy lot were jeering/harassing Foden a bit by the look of it, so he's headed back to a private room. Blokes continue having a go; Foden's mum comes out/ War of words between the two parties & Foden's mum shoves one of the blokes. One of them retaliates by punching her in the head. Both groups shouting/shoving etc. Including his mum again. Foden does go to at the group (either to get at them/protect family), but is held back a bit. More push and shove. When one of the 'harassers' turns his back someone in Foden's party (maybe a brother I've read) nearly smacks them in the back of the head with a fire extinguisher. Clip stops not long after that.

    3. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Wasn’t even last night. Foden didn’t have a neck tattoo in the video even though he has one now

      I should have been more clear- wondering if there was anything on what motivation was. Was it supporters given him crap over the loss to Spurs? Drunk youth looking for social media clout, as mentioned here already? People rightfully offended by his god awful neck tat? The possibilities are endless

    Thanks to all who recommended Foster over DDG. Unless he gets sent after conceding a few he's the winner!
