Two more Double Gameweek 29 matches take place this evening and there is plenty of interest in both of them from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) perspective.

Brighton and Hove Albion v Tottenham Hotspur gets underway at 19:30 GMT, with Arsenal v Liverpool kicking off 45 minutes later.

The headline team news comes from the Emirates, where Mohamed Salah is only among the substitutes after his injury scare at the weekend.

Diogo Jota takes the Egyptian’s place in the front three.

Jurgen Klopp’s only other alteration from the win over Brighton sees Naby Keita drop out and Thiago Alcantara come in.

Mikel Arteta keeps faith with the same 11 players that saw off Leicester City on Sunday.

As for the match on the south coast, there are no real shocks on either teamsheet.

Spurs are unchanged from their 3-2 loss at Manchester United, which means starts for well-owned assets like Son Heung-min, Harry Kane, Dejan Kulusevski and Matt Doherty.

There are two alterations to the Brighton starting XI, meanwhile, one of which sees Tariq Lamptey drop to the bench – a now-common occurrence when the Seagulls play twice within the space a few days, such is Albion’s management of his minutes.

Shane Duffy and Pascal Gross both start as Steven Alzate also makes way.

Above: FPL assets sorted by ‘effective ownership’ in the top 10k. All bar Martin Dubravka of the players in green above are in action this evening.

      You can’t raise a Kane back up when he’s in defeat

  2. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years

    The Kulu assist will come. I guess the guy in charge of pressing the button has put the Liverpool game on

    1. Zladan
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Apparently it’s added on the app.

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        1. Zladan
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Well I don’t have the app, because it’s usually the slow and glitchy one (and a bad interface compared to webpage)…

          But plenty of screenshots on Twitter of app showing assist.

  6. Londongeezaa

        • 7 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Nobody tweets, they just make a TikTok video of them dancing asking for Kulu’s points

  11. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    They'll probably give Ramsdale a save for that Thiago header.

  12. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Martinelli on fire

    1. BeWater

  17. Drop Dead Tsimikas

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

  18. Patio Kev
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    So predictions for time Salah comes on ?

    I’m going for 59th minutes for Jota and move Mane central.

  19. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Whose getting the third spurs goal?

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Son would make sense. Usually pops up with one.

  20. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years

    Omg Dunk

  21. Utopsis

    1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      You think of swapping London sides now there’s no more Chelski

      1. Utopsis
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        🙁

    2. Patio Kev
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I’ve got TAA, White and Ramsdale so would love a 0-0

      1. Utopsis
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Ramsdale and Cedric (I know) here!

  22. balint84
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Fh changes.
    Kulu over Son
    Reguilon over Doherty

    Right?

  23. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Reguilon wastes Kane assist

  24. HonestBlatter
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Kulu assist questions are consuming more energy than Bitcoin mining at the moment so Mark just add it NOW

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      After mining almost 6 BTC, I can say that is not true lol.

      1. Utopsis
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Dang

  25. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Come on Kane. We deserve that brave

  26. Differentiator
    • 10 Years

    Anyone have any Tamagotchi tips to share?

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Set it free

    2. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Don’t put it in your back door

      1. Deulofail
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Unless it's a bottom-feeder

        1. g40steve
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          🙂

    Why has Kane performed so badly on BPS these last two games? Normally, when he scores, he gets three BPS. He’s heading for no BPS over two games despite scoring in both.

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Wasted some chances

    2. TomSaints
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      He really should have got 1-2 more returns, can’t complain too much but it could have been so much better

    3. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Missed essentially an open goal, hit a free kick over the bar, etc. Defenders keeping CS as well as an attacking return will push him out

    4. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Lots of lost possession in first game and missed big chance in this one (not been watching)

  28. FPL Emu
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Benching Ben White hasn't turned out too great for me

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Liv will score

  29. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    There is no tweet about what they are wondering about that assist...

    1. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Strange

    2. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      There's no tweet about why Dier has no goal either

      1. Sterling Archer
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Yes but they tweeted out saying it was an assist then took it off, usually comes with a second tweet explaining

  30. jam

    Both FH chips left & BB but no WC. Have 7 players for week 30, was happy with 1FT to give me 8 - any need to use one of my FH chips? I guess my three chip weeks will be between 33/36/37 and 38
