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

    1. masewindu
      • 10 Years

  12. JBG
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Oh pi** off! Knew I should have taken that hit to take out Robbo to Perisic. But the uncertainty of him starting scared me off.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Should have captained him too!

      1. JBG
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Yes exactly! (I know you're being sarcastic)

  13. Rainer
    • 9 Years

  14. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    1. Blue Moon Rising
      • 14 Years

      3 years, 8 months ago

      When spurs start using Perisic properly ooft he is going to beast

    • Feloh
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Pissed off not owning Perisic.

    • thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Oh gosh. Selling Perisic is going to be tough. But gotta be done!

      It’s either 4.8df + Perisic or Cucarella + Walker

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I wouldn’t be surprised Walker to get benched, they bought a new full back

        1. G-Whizz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          He won't oust Walker immediately...

      2. BeWater
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Doherty and Perisic?

    • Londongeezaa
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      5.4m Perisic bandwagon incoming

      He’s been great.

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Plan was to bring him in this week for trippier, but wanted rid of rash an Bailey, fair play to those who kept patience from gw1

    • Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

    • DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

    • DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Perisic at 5.4 a steal!

    • Jock Grealish
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

    • EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Perisic angering Conte. Might never play again 🙂

    • Bishopool
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Can it be that official report/decision differs from FPL report? Like “ball hit woodwork” and “it was a save”. Or must it be always 1:1?

    • TomSaints
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      How are spurs winning this?!

      1. G-Whizz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
