Gameweek 28 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues on Sunday with Watford v Arsenal at Vicarage Road.

Kick-off is at 14:00 GMT.

Watford are without Ismaila Sarr and Josh King, both of whom miss out through hamstring injuries, although the latter is deemed ‘precautionary’ by the club.

As a result, Cucho Hernandez and Joao Pedro join Emmanuel Dennis up front in Roy Hodgson’s 4-3-3 formation.

Elsewhere, full-back Kiko Femenia returns to the starting XI in place of Jeremy Ngakia (hamstring), having missed the game at Old Trafford last weekend with a minor issue.

For the visitors, Emile Smith Rowe is out with Covid while Takehiro Tomiyasu has failed to recover from a calf injury.

That means Mikel Arteta names an unchanged XI, with popular picks Aaron Ramsdale and Bukayo Saka featuring from the off.


GAMEWEEK 28 LINE-UPS

Watford XI: Foster, Femenia, Cathcart, Samir, Kamara, Louza, Sissoko, Cleverley, Hernandez, Pedro, Dennis

Subs: Bachmann, Etebo, Masina, Sema, Kabasele, Kalu, Sierralta, Kucka, Kayembe

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale, Cedric, White, Gabriel, Tierney, Partey, Xhaka, Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli, Lacazette

Subs: Leno, Holding, Pepe, Tavares, Lokonga, Elneny, Nketiah, Swanson, Hutchinson

    Had Saka in my WC team, but took out for Wiillock to afford Coutinho to Jota GW29. Jota not sure starter. Lost 9k places already today. Oh the joys!

    Arsenal 3 shots on target

    1. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      This what Foster does when I play him, pen saves and double digit hauls only when benched

  17. PartyTime

    Nightcrawler in the mud 😆

      1. Paqueta Rice

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        That's hilarious since they're the team I root for being neutral

    2. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      U can't be watching the match if u think this game fills u up with any confidence for next gw from Lacas point if view

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Bla bla bla

        1. Nightcrawler

    Bench is a blast. TAA and Saka, Kulu to go.

    1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I’d bench boost that

  19. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed.

    I mean, that’s just gorgeous.

    Wow, Laca really unexpected points haul here.

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I expected it tbf. Free hitted him out. Got another jiminez 1 pointer to look forward to at least.

      1. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I bench boosted, so got the Jimenez 1 pointer in addition to the Laca haul.

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I’d expect him to get 8 points vs Watford tbh

      1. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I honestly don't ever expect him to get anything more than 6 points.

    3. Haalander
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I’ll take his haul and a bonus of a goal just to be greedy

  21. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Thats i am selling Jimenez for lacezette the 'assist king'.

  22. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Come on Tierney, now get yourself involved ffs.

  23. Zladan
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    We didn’t buy Lacassist for his goals anyway.

    What a bench boost this is turning out to be!

  24. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    With each passing game I'm closer to realisation that I didn't really even need to use my wildcard. I was just hotheaded after wasted free hit on Burnley, United and City assets. Then temptation of DGW did the rest. So annoyed with myself I can't even enjoy the game like usually...

  25. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …

    Arsenal have the best young players in Europe.

    Need that top 4 to keep them

  26. Ady87

    Rival has 27 on the bench pre-baps, love to see it.

  27. Nanoelektronicar

    That goal should be disallowed since Arteta was out of technical area when he gave the ball to Saka. No goal, YC for Arteta.

  28. PartyTime

    Laca is in the mood today. Deserves a goal

    1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Everyone else is in the muud

  29. Mr. O'Connell

    Going into hibernation until Thursday. This is no fun anymore.

  30. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Saka deserves more points
