Everton v Manchester City is the sixth and final Gameweek 27 match of the day, with kick-off at Goodison Park at 17:30 GMT.

The team news doesn’t make good reading for Free Hitters, with Riyad Mahrez – selected by over 90% of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers playing the chip this week – benched again.

Despite fears over mass Pep Guardiola rotation after last week’s defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, there is only one change to the City starting XI as John Stones comes in for Kyle Walker at right-back.

Mahrez is joined among the City substitutes by the fit-again Jack Grealish and Gabriel Jesus.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin does not make Everton’s squad because of a groin injury that will keep him out for seven to 10 days.

Abdoulaye Doucoure replaces him in the starting line-up in Frank Lampard’s only change from Gameweek 26.

GAMEWEEK 27 LINE-UPS

Everton XI: Pickford, Coleman, Holgate, Keane, Kenny, Iwobi, Allan, Van de Beek, Doucoure, Gordon, Richarlison

Subs: Begovic, Patterson, Gray, Townsend, Mykolenko, Branthwaite, Rondon, El Ghazi, Alli

Man City XI: Ederson, Stones, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo, Gundogan, Rodri, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Foden, Sterling

Subs: Carson, Slicker, Walker, Ake, Jesus, Grealish, Zinchenko, Fernandinho, Mahrez

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

      The main aim of my FH was to carry the Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea players through the blank ready for the doubles.

      Would have liked some points too but that's the game 😆

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

  15. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      4 years, 2 months ago

  16. g40steve

    • Has Moderation Rights

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

    That’ll be a pen for Everton

    Sleeve isnt handball though...

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Anything below shoulder is

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Not true

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          So where then, it’s certainly not below elbow is it

          1. Paqueta Rice
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            No, sleeve is not considered handball. However, the movement of his arm and it being stuck out like that makes the decision dubious

          2. how now brown cow
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            It is essentially the sleeve of a short sleeve shirt.

            1. Scapegoat Salah
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              So below the shoulder lol

              1. how now brown cow
                • 11 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                If you are wearing a singlet.

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

      It's not, but he controlled it with his arm.

  20. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Sterling 3 could be massive here

  21. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    No pen lol

  22. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    No pen given

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