Gameweek 31 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues on Sunday with West Ham United v Everton at the London Stadium.

Kick-off is at 14:00 GMT.

David Moyes makes three changes from the 3-1 loss at Tottenham Hotspur in Gameweek 30, with the return of Jarrod Bowen after four games out the headline FPL news.

He replaces Manuel Lanzini, while Ryan Fredericks and Pablo Fornals are also in for Ben Johnson and Arthur Masuaku, as Moyes reverts to a back-four system.

Vladimir Coufal is among the substitues after missing eight matches with a hernia problem.

Frank Lampard, meanwhile, makes five changes from the heavy 4-0 loss at Crystal Palace in the FA Cup.

Vitalii Mykolenko, Donny van de Beek, Alex Iwobi, Demarai Gray and Dominic Calvert-Lewin come in, with Mason Holgate, Seamus Coleman, Andre Gomes, Andros Townsend and Anthony Gordon dropping out.

Allan serves the second game of a three-match ban, Yerry Mina is still unavailable, while Andros Townsend has been ruled out for the rest of the season.

* a late change to Everton’s starting XI – Mason Holgate replaces Donny van de Beek, who picked up an injury in the warm-up.

    Iwobi is so so crap. He literally tackled Doucoure which then immediately leads to the Keane red

    Get Iwobi off the effin pitch

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Lost the ball for Bowen's goal too

      Was just about to post the same. Dude is having a mare

      Was also going to comment. They guy is a total liability. How he gets a start ahead of Gordon is beyond me.

    That phase of play just sums up Everton.

    Iwobi tackles Doucoure, Keane on a yellow flies into Antonio...

    No words!

    Fat Frank destined for a long holiday.

      In the championship

      1. George Sillett
        • 10 Years

        Unemployed.

    Michael Keane is a Lidl Harry Maguire

    1. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Twins

      1. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Harry is immobile but at least once in a while he can barge someone off the ball

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Harsh on Maguire to even compare them.

      That's saying something 😉

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Englands finest.

  5. Firminooooo
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Any chance Saka, Lacazette , Kulusevski or Kane not starting? Bowen first sub.

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No, No, No and No

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No

    3. yousunkmybattleship
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Um no

    4. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Saka is a possibility if he hasn't trained enough after his illness

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        He trained

    5. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      your only hope is Saka, but he has trained so it's very unlikely now

  6. fedolefan
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    The only real shock here is that Cresswell is not on max bonus despite scoring a goal. Only needs him to show up and get 2 bonus usually.

  7. The Reptile
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Got Benrahma instead of Bowen as though he was sill injured...

    1. Thanos

      Same same 🙁

        Emerson expected?

            • 14 Years

            True but thought Conte would move Davis left personally

        Interesting. Looking for a GW33 punt and he might fit the bill.

        1. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years

    Everton fans look distraught.

    1. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years

      Thought I’d turned my camera off.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years

      Think that's just their natural look at this stage.

      Hopefully he comes off early against Lyon too.

      1. Differentiator
        • 10 Years

        ? See Sim Simma's post

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Oh 😆

          Thought you were referring to Bowen getting subbed off.

  14. Differentiator

    Iwobi loses the ball again

  15. George Sillett
    • 10 Years

    Iwobi displaying supreme intelligence.

    Gordon 1pter inbound

  17. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    I swear to god, this has been an absolutely second half disasterclass from Iwobi. Worst I've seen a player perform in recent memory. Every single pass goes astray

      And yet Frank subs off DCL instead.
      Insanity, kamikaze

    Gordon on for his 1 point.

    2FT. 3.2 ITB.

    May ask this a few times this week. Apologies!.

    What move should I do? Genuinely Stumped

    Ramsdale
    Cancelo - T Silva- Taa - white
    Saka-Salah-Kulusevski-Fraser
    Kane

    Doherty- C Adams - Gelhdhart

        5% increase in gameweek points!

  23. fusen
    • 14 Years

    Think of all the dead teams with Bowen in that ruin everyone else's rank in game weeks like this 🙁

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Why is a dead team near you in the rankings?

      Surely they're all at 6m+

  24. nerd_is_the_werd

    Pickford 2 saves away from 2 extra points....

    1. fedolefan
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Come on Pickford. 2 more saves please.

    West Ham playing like England when they take the lead. They slow the play down, just keep the ball, and play simple easy passes. Kills the game. Opponent can't equalise if they don't have the ball.

  27. Rosey Palmer
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    DCL's confidence is shot.

    seriously, how is Holgate on 2 bonus? Not complaining, just wondering

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years

      He scored
