Four more Premier League matches kick off at 3pm BST this afternoon, none of which features a ‘big six’ side.

Popular budget Fantasy Premier League (FPL) players abound in these fixtures instead, with the likes of Danny Ward, Neco Williams, Josh Dasilva, Leon Bailey and Andreas Pereira in action.

Pereira has shaken off a minor injury to feature for Fulham against Brentford, who have Dasilva in their starting XI for the second week running.

The bargain-bin Brentford midfielder was the fourth-most-bought player of Gameweek 3 and was subject to more than 825,000 transfers in.

Bernd Leno and Jay Stansfield replace Marek Rodak and Neeskens Kebano in Marco Silva’s first line-up changes of the season.

Thomas Frank has made only one alteration from last week’s win over Manchester United, with Mads Roerslev dropping to the bench and Yoane Wissa coming back into the side.

Bailey is recalled as Steven Gerrard makes three changes to his Villa side, with Emiliano Buendia and Ezri Konsa also promoted to the starting line-up. Philippe Coutinho and Danny Ings are benched, while Diego Carlos is injured.

Patrick Vieira makes just one change from Monday’s draw with Liverpool, with Odsonne Edouard coming in for Nathaniel Clyne.

Nottingham Forest are unchanged apart from the enforced Steve Cook/Moussa Niakhate swap at the back, so new signings Morgan Gibbs-White, Remo Freuler, Cheikhou Kouyate and Emmanuel Dennis have to make do with substitute duty.

Tom Davies replaces the injured Abdoulaye Doucoure for Everton, as Salomon Rondon comes in at the expense of Dwight McNeil.

Ward is between the posts for Leicester City, who omit Wesley Fofana from their side as a move to Chelsea grows closer. Harvey Barnes and Ayoze Perez replace Fofana and the benched Youri Tielemans.

Joe Aribo, Sekou Mara and Adam Armstrong are in for Jan Bednarek, Stuart Armstrong and Che Adams for the Saints.

      • Adzy

        1. Nomar

      • RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Zaha at 7m looks really good. Gets a lot of bad comments on FPL groups but he looks a different player this season. Do you agree?

        1. Drip Doctor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          No. He was good last season aswell.

        2. Sandy Ravage
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          Rotates well with Trippier too

          1. RAFA THE GAFFA
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 7 months ago

            Not sure I’d rotate a 7m mid who’s in Pens and already scored at Anfield too

        3. thegaffer82
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          After next game week I may have to consider him

      • DRIZ ✅
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Bailey off

      • Hughes Your Daddy
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        McGinn very lucky

      • jam
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        I was expecting a little more than this from Ward tbh...

      • Wolfman180
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Had a really good GW1 and then since then everything's just gone to ****. Wouldn't even say my teams bad, just can't seem to get the points

      • Rainer
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Saucy assist for Adams' goal!

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            3 years, 7 months ago

            Defenders couldn't katchup

        2. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          Just need Everton to score now to wipe off the Neco jammie clean sheets. Although maybe I should want him to keep a cleanie in case the Liverpool game gets called off since he'd come off my bench.

          1. TheBiffas
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 7 months ago

            They're not jammy mate Everton are terrible

            1. Camzy
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 15 Years
              3 years, 7 months ago

              They've looked lively this game and Henderson has had to make a few saves.

        3. fusen
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          I've got Ward as my second keeper but haven't played him so far.

          Are any of the goals actually his fault or are the Leicester defence just not very good? (especially without Fofana)

        4. @persecuted_by_mods
            3 years, 7 months ago

            As an expert I did try to tell everyone that Leicester and Ward are awful and that even 4.0m was too much

            But free thinkers get abused on here usually
