Burnley v Southampton kicks off at 19:45 BST this evening and brings Double Gameweek 33 to a close.

It’ll be a strange evening for fans of the Clarets as this will be the first home match without Sean Dyche at the helm for the best part of 10 years.

With no permanent replacement yet appointed, caretaker boss Mike Jackson takes charge of the hosts for the second time.

He’s made two changes to the side that drew 1-1 with West Ham on Sunday, with the hokey-cokey continuing at right-back as Connor Roberts comes in for the benched Matthew Lowton.

Jackson’s other alteration is enforced as Josh Brownhill is recalled to replace the injured Ashley Westwood.

Ralph Hasenhuttl sticks with the same side that beat Arsenal on Saturday, so that means another benching for Tino Livramento and Che Adams.

Fantasy interest, at least in the top 10k, centres around the two sides’ forward lines, with Armando Broja and Wout Weghorst sitting in 63% and 45% of the leading FPL squads respectively.

GAMEWEEK 33 LINE-UPS

Burnley XI: Pope, Roberts, Collins, Tarkowski, Taylor, Cork, Brownhill, McNeil, Cornet, Weghorst, Rodriguez.

Subs: Stephens, Lowton, Lennon, Hennessey, Long, Costelloe, Barnes, Vydra, Bardsley.

Southampton XI: Forster, Walker-Peters, Lyanco, Bednarek, Valery, Perraud, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, S Armstrong, Elyounoussi, Broja.

Subs: Caballero, Salisu, Redmond, A Armstrong, Long, Tella, Livramento, Adams, Diallo.

    Dubravka
    TAA Rudiger Schar
    Salah Son Saka Barnes
    Kane Weghorst Broja

    Ramsdale KDH Kilman Doherty

    1FT, 0.1itb

    Rudiger Barnes Weghorst >> James Mount Gelhardt (-8) ??

    Don’t like the (-8) but feel like I need to make the moves…

    Thoughts appreciated.

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years

      No

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

        What then sir?

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

          Doherty to Alonso? Isn't Doherty out for the season?

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

            And Broja out...

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

            Don’t have the funds, would need to enable somewhere

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

              Broja to 4.5 and you have the money

        2. Paqueta Rice
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Depends on how long Rudiger is out for. If it is long term then maybe. Barnes still has 2 doubles. Can you do Doherty, Weg and Broja to Def, Werner and Mateta?

          1. how now brown cow
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Well, leicester have 2 doubles. Not sure any individual player will.

            1. Paqueta Rice
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              They don’t have to play the full 90 of both. 120+ is still decent in each gameweek

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

            I think I’d prefer Maddison for the DGWs and still have FH to bring him in for that

            Doh Weg Bro is still a -8

            1. Paqueta Rice
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              I wasn’t sure what chips you had left. Yeah, -8 is not ideal. Go with your gut.

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Sounds almost as bad as my plan to sell Broja and White for Alonso and fodder for -8.

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

        Well I always needed to take -4 to get Mount in, and the Rudiger injury has made things worse!!

        What are all your moves for the -8 ?

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

          Bruno to Salah 🙁 is the third. I transferred Bruno in for Everton, certainly wouldn't have done it later. I am even considering using my last FH now.

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

            Look I’m not one for hits but sometimes they’re necessary, and when it’s for someone long term or a DGWer that ‘May’ haul its somewhat justified

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

              Had I kept Salah, I think I would have been able to play it safer. I was at top 17k, but now around top 30k after this disaster. Alonso at least is capable to haul. -8 is too much, but at least he is capable to haul unlike White.

            2. Baps Hunter
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Unless we even "give luck a chance", there is zero chance.

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

                Totally, if there’s ever a time to attack it’s now.

                I’ve just broken back into the top 10k and need to do what it takes to keep climbing

                Just need to work out what the ‘what it takes’ is haha

  2. sentz05
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bring in
    A James
    B Havertz
    C James and Havertz -4

    1. Gunneryank
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Strongly considering C

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

      With absolutely no more info, C.

    3. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      C

    4. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      After the arsenal debacle, is it worth it?

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

      C

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

    Livramento on!

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

    Which option is worth -4?

    A) Mount for Barnes

    B) Werner for Laca

    1. Original Sin
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      B

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

    Broja please get out of my team

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

      He got a 2 point haul though.

      But yeah, as an owner, selling him is my priority number uno

  6. HippY
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Really can't decide if this is genius or insane....

    Saka, Kulusevski, Lacazette to Mount, Havertz, Mateta....for a -8

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

      Go for it if you feel like the hits can be recovered

      There's a fine like between genius and insane anyways 😉

  7. sentz05
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Is getting in James over Alonso worth the extra cash?

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

      Not if both continue in their recent roles.

  8. Ask Yourself
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Tbf I was pretty encouraged by that weggy performance think he’s as good as any other striker option right now and has something to play for

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

      I was encouraged as a non-owner too.

    2. Snake Juice
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      It's either I upgrade to Werner which leaves me with nothing in the bank; or downgrade to Pukki or Mateta.

      I don't like either scenario.

      1. NorCal Villan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Right now I’d much rather have Pukki than Weghorst- has form, has good DGW in 36, & fixtures from now until end are not that rough

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

    That gets given at 0-0.

  10. Tower Bridge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Good evening all.
    With Rudiger likely to be out for at least one game I’ve been trying to find a solution.
    What do people think of:
    Rudiger to Laporte
    Kulu to Mount
    I have exact money now and would cost a -4.

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

      Seem good moves and good longer term too

    2. BeWater
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I probably would.

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      both good players in

  11. BeWater
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Would you go triple Chelsea attack if on FH?

    Werner, Havertz and Mount.

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

      Absolutely!

      Triple attack is brave...

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

        No Rudiger helps the case too.

        1. BeWater
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Might be more fun so think I'm going to to for it.

    2. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      yup

    3. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I am

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

    Broja probably blanking here.

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

      Time for a YC in frustration still

    2. BeWater
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Can't wait to WC and get two garden gnomes in for Broja and Weghorst.

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

    Oh Livramento on .... 1 more point for my failed BB

  14. GoonerBru
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Hey all, so on WC, BB in 36… thoughts?

    Ederson (Foster)
    TAA, James, Cancelo (Davies, Anderson)
    Salah, KDB, Saka, Mount (Gordon)
    Werner, Pukki, Nketiah

    1. BeWater
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Nketiah could be worth a gamble. Can't be worse than the usual suspects.

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

    Burnley still with only 46% possession

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

    Pope haul

  17. Bobadoba
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Why is Mount so far ahead of Werner in captain poll?

    1. antis0cial
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure, I think Werner is good option for cpt this week

      1. Bobadoba
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I think Werner captain could be good too.

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

      Not quite sure on the Mount love, 4x the transfers in of Havertz so far

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

    Surely no-one travelled from Southampton to Burnley for that, 9+ hour round trip!

  19. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Pope's cleanie! Thx sire 😀

  20. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Southampton are such a strange team.

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

      Knowing them they will end up beating Liverpool in GW37

      1. Danstoke82
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        No chance and I’m a saints fan, that’s going to be a mauling.

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

    When's the last time Pope got 3 saves, a CS & no BAPs?

    Total football at Burnley!

  22. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    1 FT and 0.5 ITB. Still have BB and FH left

    A - Maddison & Martinelli > Mount & Gordon for -4
    B - Schar & Maddison > Ben Johnson & Mount for -4
    C - Cucho > Nketiah
    D - Other suggestion?

    Schmeichel
    Cancelo - James - TAA - Schar
    KDB - Son - Maddison - Martinelli
    Kane - Mateta

    Foster - Mitchell - Ramsey - Cucho

    1. antis0cial
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Kane to Werner, martinelli to mount/havertz?

  23. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    That late Everton goal looking vital right now.

  24. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Sell Kane or Son for funds?

    Sa
    James TAA KWP
    Salah Son Saka Martinelli Raph
    Kane Mateta

    Dubravka Hwang Doherty Tierney

    1. antis0cial
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Kane

    2. BeWater
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Who would you get in for either of them and what would you do with the funds?

      1. _Ninja_
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Not really sure... maybe..

        Son/Tierney to Mount/Cancelo -4

        Kane/Martinelli/Tierney to Werner/Mount/Laporte -8

  25. NJ MetroStars
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    what are all the rudiger owners doing this week?!?!?!?!?!!!!

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

      On a WC might just keep as I’ve got bench cover

  26. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Which att to get for 3rd spot up to 6 mil (have Kane and Toney)?

    a) Pukki
    b) Mateta
    c) ?

    1. BeWater
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Pukki

    2. antis0cial
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Pukki or punt on Nketiah

  27. Christina.
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    109(-4) on BB

    OR 117k->67k OR

    First time below 100k this season

    Pity Wegdonkey missed open goal

    We move

    1. BeWater
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Great score. I got 71 on BB and a 0.5% green arrow. 138k.

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

      15 point BB here
      Pretty bad but that chip is so hard to get right, should really consider the GW1 BB strategy next season and then early WC

  28. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Fraser and Rudiger to Mount and Veltman for a hit?

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah looks decent.

  29. Capocannonieri
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Broja, Weg, and Lukaku are finalists for the most useless forwards of the season.

    No matter the fixture, no matter the formation, no matter if DGW - their form stays the same. They blank.

    The award name is "the Tammy"

    1. Fintroy
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      In fairness weg-donkey managed 10 points this GW - it takes broja 5 weeks to do that!
