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.

    2. ChickenTikkaMoSalah

      1. C_G
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

  9. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Looked bad on Zaha, from Cash.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Never nice to see that between two England teammates.

      1. MrZ
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        You mean former England teammates

    2. Sad Pablo Arsecobar

  10. SamH123

    1. Sad Pablo Arsecobar
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Top top. Make sure you bench the players who get the least points.

  11. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    No Dasilva goal yet?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

  12. nerd_is_the_werd
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Benched Andreas, GW can't get any worse here...

    1. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      All we need is a Castagne OG, and a Toney missed penalty.

    2. bso
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      It can...have Andreas and Bailey on the bench. Hopefully my starters come thru.

  13. Ninja Škrtel
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Returns from Bailey and Andreas. Beautiful!

  14. DRIZ ✅

    SOU offside goal

  18. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Perisic
    anyone else kept perisic in bench w/ his 9bpts?
    Pity, did anyone see him starting...lineup previews showed him benched.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      12 points.

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      He was supposed to start.

    3. F_Ivanovic
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      uhm, if you used twitter you'd know he was a high likelyhood to start. Not sure why you listened to the lineup preview on here which was I assume done earlier

    4. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      If you have Perisic you have to start him, otherwise why have a 5.4M defender? Plenty of line ups showed him starting from my POV

    5. Total Foot 5
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Pity, whats most reliable lineup preview goin forward? The two i used obviously not reliabke

  19. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years

  24. 1justlookin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Good start for Bailey and Pereira, still got wuite high ownership.
    Wonder how many teams are starting them though

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      I started Andreas and his EO% is around 5%

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        So huge differential

        1. Sad Pablo Arsecobar
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          An assist isn't a huge differential TBH

      2. dansmusen
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Most in my ML have him first on bench

  25. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Palace goal disallowed

  26. DRIZ ✅
    • 14 Years

    No goal CP

  27. AC/DC AFC

    Goal wiped at Palace

  28. tiger

    Schlupp G scuppered

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  29. Fer Fuch's Ake
    • 12 Years

    Shame on me for sticking with Digne, another -1 incoming

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

    How bad were United to concede 4 and not score any against Brentford? Should have triple captained Salah
