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.

    Burnley vs Everton up next.

    What a game that's going to be. Absolute bail biter for those two sets of fans, I do not envy you at all!

    After that Evertons fixtures are horrific.

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Nail biter 😆

    2. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      1-0

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah probably.

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

      I fancy Burnley to win it 2-0.

    Apart from being crap, anyone know whats up with Reguilon?

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Injured in training

        Thanks

      "Football.London have reported that Tottenham Hotspur left-back Sergio Reguilon suffered an injury in training ahead of the Premier League match against Newcastle United.

      Reguilon, who has been playing as a left wing-back under Tottenham head coach Antonio Conte, reportedly pulled up in training on Thursday with a problem."

      Made of weetabix that lad

  3. Stranger Mings
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Looking at Jimi to ASM or wood GW32 depending on how play today

  4. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Went Havertz over Bowen because of the uncertainty of start. Can't complain though. Going Bowen when on 50% would've been bold to say the least.

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Unfortunate. At least it wasn't a 50/50 decision where you were punished by everyone going the other way.

    2. seewhyaxe
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      it's the right decision, don't beat yourself over it

  5. Fish up a tree
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Newcastle fans why does Bruno not start every week as he’s quality!

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Was playing for Brazil during break so would imagine that's why he benched today

    2. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      He's new to the league and has just been on international duty. We have little to play for so better to protect him from a potentially lesser performance.

  6. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Oh Keane, you sad sad player.. who i own…

  7. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Sorry not watching the game
    Planning to FH GW33, so if I don't use FT GW32 & have 2 FT GW33 do I lose 1 FT in GW34?
    So am i better using FT this week?
    Thinking Salah to KBD

    Ramsey (Foster)
    Robbo/rudi/Cancelo/Dohrty/coady
    Salah/Saka/raph/cout/kulu
    Kane/weghorst/cucho

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    2. One More Hit
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      You'll lose the transfer. Got the same mid 5, ditch Coutinho for... instead?

  8. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed

    Is it possible to fh33 wc34 then bb36?

    read something about not being able to play chips back to back. I should know these things smh

    1. Pinturicchio10
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Impossible

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Wrong

          1. Pinturicchio10
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Good job Sherlock

        2. moment
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          I believe you simply can't play 2 FHs back to back

        3. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          It’s the FH you can’t play back to back, the above works I believe

        4. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Yes you can FH and then WC

        4 years, 1 month ago

        Which Leicester defender is the safest bet to start both in DGW33?

        1. Fish up a tree
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Castagne or Fofana

        2. Kun Tozser
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          A Newcastle one probably

      • Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Can’t believe I thought I was going to get away with keeping Reguilon. Absolutely ruins me every week

        1. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Just the most feeble little dweeb

      • Kaneyonero
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Kane hattrick with Kulu hattrick of assists please thank you

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          It’s going to be messy!!

      • Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Gordon equaliser too much to ask?

      • The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Antonio gets motm because Sky think he scored 🙄

      • Zimo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Oh damn just looked at Evertons fixtures after Burnley. Good chance they get relegated instead of Burnley.

        1. TheTinman
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Yep. If they don't take 3pts at Turf Moor they're in huge trouble.

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

            I don’t think they will take three points. Best is maybe a point. Dyche will have them set up for a clean sheet

        2. yousunkmybattleship
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Fixtures + being terrible = in trouble

        3. Pinturicchio10
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Hopefully

        4. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Wtf Cresswell

          1. Hazz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Red surely.

        5. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Still on 15 points

          Need triple spurs and ironically triple arsenal to go massive

        6. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          FT?

          1. TheTinman
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Yup

          2. Rainer
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Just as Gordon was about to score too...

            1. Scapegoat Salah
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              I hope you’re joking

        7. Differentiator
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Son hattrick incoming, Zero Kulu assists

          1. Hazz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Kulu brace however

          2. @persecuted_by_mods
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Kulu lays on sitter for son, only for son to trip over his own feet and drag it wide

          3. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Cresswell throwing the BAPS away right at the end

            1. @persecuted_by_mods
                4 years, 1 month ago

                Should have got a red

            2. Differentiator
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              How has Cresswell avoided a red there?

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

                Probably the over reaction by Richarlison.

            3. JONALDINHO
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Just own Son and Doherty. Prepared for a Kane brace with 2 Kulu assists

              1. diesel001
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 1 month ago

                Nah. It's your day today. Kane blank incoming....

            4. FPL_ UP_Down
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Kane Kulu Doherty let’s go!

            5. Zimo
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Let's go Son, Kane, Doherty!

            6. Pukki Party
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              If you play Everton players in the right gameweeks you can get an average of 4 points

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

                Playing Rugby. Maybe.

            7. Piggs Boson
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Looked like Moyes is trying to recruit Pickford. Makes sense, West Ham need a new keeper, and if Everton go down he'd be gettable.

              1. The Bandit
                • 15 Years
                4 years, 1 month ago

                Not sure he’s any better than Flappy tbf.

                1. Royal5
                  • 14 Years
                  4 years, 1 month ago

                  This.

                2. Piggs Boson
                  • 14 Years
                  4 years, 1 month ago

                  I like him. I think Pickford is a good player in a bad team.

                  Phenomenal for England. He's made zero errors leading to goals...

            8. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Do we think Spurs will concede?

              1. Rainer
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 1 month ago

                Hard for a bit of Spursy not to kick in over 90 minutes, they'll find a way!

            9. diesel001
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Burnley vs Everton the big game this GW. Imagine Burnley win. Everton will be sweating big time.

                • 16 Years
                4 years, 1 month ago

                Both teams look as inept as each other, though.

            10. Brehmeren
              • 15 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago
