The third and final Premier League match of the day is a big one from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) point of view, with interest spiking in Tottenham Hotspur players in the run-up to Gameweek 29.

Spurs are one of just two sides who ‘double’ in the current Gameweek and then have a top-flight fixture going ahead in Blank Gameweek 30, so there was no surprise that four of the most-bought FPL assets of Gameweek 29 are on the Lilywhites’ books.

PlayerTeamTransfers In (GW29)
SakaArsenal844,593
KulusevskiSpurs764,031
DohertySpurs587,595
KaneSpurs560,579
SonSpurs325,512

All the key Spurs targets start this evening as Antonio Conte makes just one change to the side that hammered Everton on Monday.

It’s an enforced one, too, as Sergio Reguilon comes in for the injured Ryan Sessegnon at left wing-back.

There is a bit more explaining to do with the Manchester United teamsheet, which shows five changes from last weekend’s derby.

Bruno Fernandes misses out with illness but goalkeeper David de Gea starts, despite some Covid-related drama earlier in the day.

“Bruno is ill, unfortunately. He couldn’t train yesterday and is therefore not available for the game. Hopefully, he will be back for Tuesday but, today, he is out.

“David had, to start with, a positive Covid test but, in the end, it turned out to be a false test. We did another test after that and it was negative so that is why he can play.” – Ralf Rangnick

Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo are back in the United side after missing the 4-1 defeat to Manchester City.

GAMEWEEK 29 LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Maguire, Pogba, Ronaldo, Rashford, Fred, Varane, Dalot, Sancho, Telles, Matic.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Doherty, Reguilon, Romero, Hojbjerg, Son, Kane, Dier, Kulusevski, Bentancur, Davies.

    A captains goal to be proud of! 80m pounds well spent. Makes me want to throw up seeing him as MU captain.

    1. Vote Joke
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      5 mill more than VVD. Let that sink in…

  14. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years

    Wow Maguire scored ...

  15. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Reguillon really did not deserve that

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Would have been offside if FridgeHead didn't do anything.

  16. Sailboats
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Classic Maguire stealing Man Utd's points and giving to the opposition

  17. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    There's the 2-2.

    Avoid both defenses!

  18. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Reguilon goal

    Son assist if the OG isn't given

    1. The Train Driver
      • 10 Years

    2. Rainer

      Goal - own goal (Maguire)
      Assist - REGUILON

      Man Utd 2-2 Spurs (72 mins)

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        More misery for Son owners

    4. Zilla
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Surely will be changed

    5. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

  19. NorCal Villan
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Maguire—the gift that keeps on giving

    1. Haalander
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Lol worth every penny they spent on him

  20. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    It’s Utd. They always find a way to concede

  21. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Fred gonna overtake Kane for baps here 🙁

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Even after Kane’s winner?

      1. GoonerSteve
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Lol great minds

    2. GoonerSteve
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Kane to score the winner.

  22. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Dalot getting sent off here?

    Who's been a surprise success for you this season? Barring last week's benching disaster (and I can't exactly blame him for that), Toney has been a hero for me: 60 points in nine games.

    1. Esalman
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Ramsdale+White!

      1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        White - nice one!

    2. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      On the flip side, Traoré was a terrible pick that I stuck with for way too long haha.

      1. Esalman
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        That's Bernardo for me lol.

  24. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    I know people will laugh because it's Maguire. But Romero in that obvious offside position surely influenced him to dive in there.

    Shouldn't be ruled offside, but I do feel for him a bit there.

    1. Haalander
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      I don’t

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        You do you Paul

      2. FantasyTony
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Thought the same to be honest.

    2. JBG
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      I don't... I find odd that he's MU captain and that he's supposed to be some kind of leader in the dressing room and on the pitch. He's not a MU level CB and he's certainly not a leader or an inspirational player for the others on the pitch.

      I don't know what I would have done if he tried to talk to me as a MU captain and I was a MU player. Would probably flip out and curse him out.

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Quite the contrary, he is a MU level CB ;).... mid table

        But yeah, Ronaldo or DDG should be captain.

  25. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Maguire. Captain, leader, legend.

  26. Salan
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Maguire never upset us.

  27. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    I wouldn't mind if there was one point for AA instead of that 1 CS point for mids.

  28. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Did anyone see Ronaldos Reaction to Maguire OG?

  29. Dannyb
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    If only that was last chance saloon for that useless fat headed twerp. But it won't be.

  30. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    As a Son and Doherty owner with no Kane, Kulu, Reggy this is pure pain
