Ivan Perisic will finally get his full Tottenham Hotspur competitive debut this afternoon as the Lilywhites prepare to face Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Kick-off in north London is at 12:30 BST.

Perisic in for the benched Ryan Sessegnon is one of two changes that Antonio Conte has made, the other being the enforced swap from Cristian Romero to Davinson Sanchez.

There are summer signings also making their first starts for the visitors, too, as Goncalo Guedes and record signing Matheus Nunes get the nod.

Joao Moutinho is also back from injury to feature.

Hwang Hee-chan and Leander Dendoncker both drop to the bench, while Morgan Gibbs-White has departed for Nottingham Forest.

Perisic was one of the most-sold defenders of Gameweek 3, with just under 300,000 managers transferring him out, although still sits in a healthy 16.6% of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) squads.

Pedro Neto and Son Heung-min, both starters this lunchtime, were jettisoned by a similar number.

Dejan Kulusevski, by contrast, was snapped by just short of half a million FPL managers, resulting in a second price rise of 2022/23.

GAMEWEEK 3 LINE-UPS

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Sanchez, Dier, Davies, Emerson, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Perisic, Kulusevski, Son, Kane.

Subs: Forster, Doherty, Richarlison, Gil, Sessegnon, Tanganga, Moura, Lenglet, Bissouma

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Sa, Jonny, Collins, Kilman, Ait Nouri, Nunes, Neves, Moutinho Podence, Guedes, Neto.

Subs: Sarkic, Jimenez, Hwang, Boly, Semedo, Toti, Dendoncker, Traore, Cundle

      Watch Cucurella and decide whether B or D

    2. F_Ivanovic

      None of this makes sense...why get rid of Trippier now especialyl for a hit? He has one more difficult game and a good run of fixtures and has looked good so far.

      1. One for All
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I'm guessing b or d it is then. Was wondering if James is worth the -4

      2. One for All
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I'll transfer Dier>>Cucurella and get rid of Son if he blanks again.

    3. Sad Pablo Arsecobar

      You have held trippier for the city game so no point selling now

      I'd keep trip and after watching todays game I'd look at ways of moving on Son.

        Cool good advice guys, thanks.

      Why are A and C for hits when you've stated 2FT ?

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Why is C

        1. One for All
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          C I forgot to add Son>Kdb.
          A is 3 transfers

    Barring any massive injuries over the weekend now-

    Trippier + Bailey -> Perisic + Reed the only way to go here for a -4 with exact cash??

    Ramsdale.
    TAA, Cancelo, Cuca, James, Trippier.
    Salah, Diaz, Martinelli.
    Jesus, Haaland.
    Ward, Andreas, Bailey, Archer.
    1ft, 0.0m ITB.

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

      see above... bailey is starting now. might still be a good hold. Perisic way too risky to bring in now - i'd wait closer to deadline for news on if he's likely to start. And trippier is a decent player to have IMO. Good fixtures aside from the Liverpool game.

    2. MrZ
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Rams to Raya/Sanchez

  3. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Let’s say all are fit and nailed, would you have Cucu, Perisic, Henry or maybe one of the Brighton defs?

    1. Berkshire Hafaway-Line
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Perisic easy....if only he was nailed

    2. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Perisic even though not nailed can always come on for 20-30 minutes and be a good source of points

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

    Perisic at 33, nursing a knock and the fact Conte has plenty of cover, will mean he’s not without risk.

    Good luck

    1. Berkshire Hafaway-Line
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah, but fair play to his owners for their risk being rewarded

  5. Stranger Mings

    After selling Bailey thinking May put £5 on him to score !!

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

      Just get him back for next week's blank

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

        An assist- of course !!!

  6. fantasyfog
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    So I can do Zinchenko and Baily - Perisic and up to 6 mil mid (Lingaard etc)

    Would be a -4 though

    If Zinchenko or baily bag though I'm reluctant... thoughts?

  7. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years

    Annoyed at Kulu blank, 2 potential assists hitting woodwork. Good second half and 85 mins so I guess a hold for now

    1. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Easy hold. Was the best player on the pitch

    Watching the West London derby. My Dad always loved Brentford but we're in 3rd division...Great to see Fulham and Brentford playing again in the top flight.
    Fulham got the lead which is great for Toney and Da Silva owners as they have to go for it...

    1. masewindu
      • 10 Years

      Andrea's has been sharp. Looks a different player at home.

      Flicked over to see Everton turning the screw against Forest. Gordon with some shot.

  9. Ruud van Basten
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I need a new GK, Mendy or Ramsdale? My current GK are both Leicester.

  10. AC/DC AFC

    They love a tackle at Ellend Road as much as a pass.

    The atmosphere in this one was always going to give it an edge.

    Chelsea can still win but it's no walk in the park.
