Gameweek 30 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues on Sunday with Leicester City v Brentford at the King Power Stadium.

Kick-off is at 14:00 GMT.

Brendan Rodgers makes four changes from the team that started at Rennes in the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday.

Caglar Soyuncu, Timothy Castagne, Nampalys Mendy and James Maddison all come into the starting XI, with Wesley Fofana, Luke Thomas, Wilfred Ndidi (knee) and Marc Albrighton (groin) dropping out.

Popular Fantasy picks James Maddison and Harvey Barnes support Kelechi Iheanacho up front, while Ricardo Pereira and Patson Daka are named as substitutes.

As for Brentford, Christian Eriksen misses out having tested positive for Covid-19, with Mathias Jensen replacing him in the Bees engine room.

That’s one of Thomas Frank’s two changes, with Yoane Wissa also coming in for Sergi Canos, who drops to the bench.

Ivan Toney – who has seven goals in his last five Premier League outings – leads the line as expected.


GAMEWEEK 30 LINE-UPS

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Justin, Amartey, Soyuncu, Castagne, Mendy, Tielemans, Dewsbury-Hall, Maddison, Barnes, Iheanacho

Subs: Jakupovic, Evans, Perez, Choudhury, Pereira, Vestergaard, Daka, Thomas, Soumare

Brentford XI: Raya, Ajer, Jansson, Pinnock, Henry, Norgaard, Janelt, Jensen, Mbeumo, Wissa, Toney

Subs: Fernandez, Canos, Onyeka, Jorgensen, Baptiste, Fosu-Henry, Sorensen, Roerslev, Young-Coombes

    Pereira was the darling on here wasn’t he.
    Oh well, my own fault for picking him, hopefully worst case a one pointer, or two points for Cash taking his place

      Gabriel 8 puts on bench, hope Perreira stays off! 🙂

    Ajax match delayed
    Feyenoord fans have lit a fire behind the goals
    Mental
    Think due to a flare
    Utter madness

      Makes it interesting if someone ties himself to the goalpost

      First match I ever went to at Newcastle, someone threw a petrol bomb at the West Ham fans in the away end. That was 40 years ago!

    Some idiot on here was saying he met Ivan Toney at Cheltenham earlier this week. This guy was told that Toney was carrying a knee injury and wouldn't be playing vs Leicester.

    Doesn't affect me as I never had any intention to bring in Toney, but shows how this 'information flow' stuff can be manipulated.

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

      I’m pretty sure that was just a joke lol

      I saw Ivan Toney at a grocery store in Brentford yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

      He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

      I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

      The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

      When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

        And still he neglected to give you a full update on the injury/covid situation at Brentford? How f&%#ing rude!

      2. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Why wouldn’t he just buy a multipack. Flashy git. Milky Ways are not as good as they used to be. A top player would have bought finger of fudge instead.

        Am I just out of the loop and missing the joke reference here? This actually happened?

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

          It's a copypasta, people use it a lot with pretty much anyone famous as a joke

          1. @persecuted_by_mods
            4 years, 3 months ago

            To be fair, you have to have a high iq to understand it

            1. Debauchy
              • 13 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              Yayy I got it

    3. tokara
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Hindsight speaking this guy had saved many from getting Toney

  5. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Ramsdale, Kilman, Raphina and now Thomas had 11 starters apparently going into this gw

  6. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Let’s go Amartey!

  7. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    What's the covid situation in the UK?
    Loads of players testing positive recently.

    Plus news channels reporting close to 100k cases daily. Is it true?

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Cases rising but everyone has forgotten it’s a killer.

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Let's hope its still a mild variant.

  8. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Prediction for Pool vs Forest tonight?

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Any result and i would be happy, forest fans are amazing and respectful if they win it won't be that bad.

  9. Optimus.
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    If it's any consolation for new owners of Eriksen, Martinelli etc it's that hits only cost -2 this gw 😉

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

      😆

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

      Or in Jimenez’s case, -6 😀

  10. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Raphinha > Eriksen at the last min.

    I got nowhere to hide. Just gotta laugh it off. Enjoy it haters 😉

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Yes haters gonna hate and all that mate.. Keep going.
      Oh wait, who tf are you?

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      That’s just bad luck

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        You could also say getting rid of Raphinha was good luck too. There was nothing confirmed about him being out. Just read the rumors and made a choice.

  11. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    I'm just glad I saved FT. What a painful GW

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

      If Kane/Son blank could be the lowest scoring ever? Wonder what the record is

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Many still on - scores & Salah is most capped in the game still!

  12. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Have Leicester still got 4 extra games to schedule?

    Schmeichel, Maddy & Barnes seem nailed & possibly Justin & Castagne once fully upto speed….

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

      NOR and CHE are the two unscheduled fixtures they need to catch-up on
      Europa a bit unhelpful in terms of minutes/rotation

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers

  13. JAYPEE
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Brought in Fofana for a -4 how good!

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Will be good sooooon

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

        Where is he now though? He started and scored in Europa

        1. g40steve
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Coming back from long term injury same as Justin, Pereira & Castagne

  14. Trippier Hazard
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Chances of Jimenez red card being appealed by Wolves, and opinion on whether the match bans are reduced as a result, if so?

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      It can't be appealed, it was a second yellow.

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

      Can’t be appealed as a second YC iirc
      Still such a stupid call

    3. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Nah

    4. Trippier Hazard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Silly me. Although I'd question the wisdom of being able to appeal straight red vs not for 2nd yellow, as both result in sending off?

      1. MrZ
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Straight red : 3 match ban
        2nd yellow : 1 match ban

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

        Just a blanket rule of not being able to appeal YCs as the system would become too bureaucratic with a lot of decisions happening off-field after the event
        Do think they could maybe have an exception to the rule for reds that are 2nd yellows though
        Still it’s crazy that Jim got send off for that while Sanchez didn’t even get a card for the Luis Diaz challenge the previous week!

    Barnes and Toney hatrick

    1. Hazz

    Man City team vs. Soton for FA Cup:

    XI | Steffen, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Cancelo, Rodrigo, De Bruyne, Gundogan (C), Jesus, Sterling, Grealish
    SUBS | Carson, Ake, Zinchenko, Bernardo, Fernandinho, Mahrez, Foden

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years

      We are going to destroy them!

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      That's the way to win it.

      It's weird when Premier League teams play weakened teams when there's a competition to win.

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

        Its not really that weakened though, no kids just some first teamers who need a game

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

      Southampton
      Forster; KWP, Stephens, Salisu, Livramento; S. Armstrong, Ward-Prowse, Romeu, Elyounoussi; Long, A. Armstrong.
      (Caballero, Adams, Redmond, Perraud, Broja, Djenepo, Smallbone, Diallo, Valery)

    Please pereira don’t get minutes..

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

      You deserve a 1 pointer for having him

    2. A. PRISE
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Unlucky mate. Brenda is an ahole so he will probably sub him in at the later stages

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

      Good chance I’d imagine with most Leicester defenders having just come back from injury

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

    Cmon Ivan!

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

      He won't score while I own him

  20. A. PRISE
    • 5 Years

    What a boring game

  21. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    4th for Palace.

    Avoid Everton?

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

      They are just focusing on the league 😉

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Goes without saying I think

  22. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Brentford showing some signs of attacking intent.

  23. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years

    Everton going down would be nothing short of beautiful, fingers crossed!

    In need of a bit of a goal fest here in order to give my free hit any credibility.

      Yeah, but I'm gonna pretend it's Maddison as I'm clearing getting no points this week so it looks like I'm gonna have to make them up.
