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

    How had Kulu looked?

    1. F_Ivanovic
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Pretty good.

    2. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Decent should've had an assist or two, just unlucky.

      Spurs not great overall tbh. Looking a bit better now.

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Spurs have been very good in the second half

      2. The Sociologist
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Hopefully it’s a lively one vs Forest next week

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

      Best of the front 3.

      1. The Sociologist
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Encouraging, thanks. Next run of 3x games look great, will see how he does.

    4. schlupptheweek
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Better than Son who's end product seems to have disappeared.

    5. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years

      best Spursv player today

      1. Royal5

    6. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Looks pretty good
      More assist threat than goal

      1. The Sociologist
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Fair enough, thanks for that!

    7. @persecuted_by_mods
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Better than woeful Son, not better than Kane, not better than Perisic

        1. The Sociologist
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Have exact money for Neco Williams > Perisic this week. It’s tempting!

      • AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Strong second half, Royal getting in the way with some triangle passing not coming off.

        They were good together in gw1 tho.

        1. The Sociologist
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Interesting… wonder if Doherty will be more of an asset for Kulu once fit

    8. OptimusBlack
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Great from Jiménez

    9. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Come on Wolves, you can score now!

    10. OptimusBlack
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Perišić is my new player for GW 4

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Don't tell Foo Fighter, he'll spend all week preaching his new advice

      2. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Even with not knowing if he starts and this possible hamstring injury?

        1. OptimusBlack
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          🙁

    11. @persecuted_by_mods
        3 years, 8 months ago

        If I know anything about hamstrings it's that you carry on running, complete 2 passes and then get subbed off and point at your foot

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

        Perisic will be flagged?

        1. Clintymints
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Possible, buys some more time if so, but all speculation atm

      • Hotdogs for Tea
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Think it's time to go 5 at the back with Perišić looking useful
        Ederson
        TAA James Zinchenko Perišić Cancelo

        1. Deulofail
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Hope there's some 1-pointers in there from Peri and Zinc

      • Bishopool
        • 14 Years

        So now Cash has to do better that Perisic for me

      • DMP
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Glad i sold Robbo and kept Perisic.

        1. RICICLE
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Why wouldn’t you be glad?

        2. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          "Glad i sold Robbo"

          Oh you won't be. You won't be.

          Yes please 😆

      • thegaffer82
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I know Perisic looked very good today. But, I’m still not 100% sold on him (even as an owner). Mainly because of fitness, rotation & Champs League starting soon.
        I’ll take those points today though!

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

          Agree.

        2. F_Ivanovic
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Same. I brought him in as a punt with 2 FT's knowing he would start. But I'm not sure how long I'll keep him for.

      • Randaxus
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Abandon all Tottenham players the other top teams have better players.

        1. thegaffer82
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Kulu could well end up being the best 8mil MFer & Perisic is a bargain once he’s fully up to speed.

            I still have reservations about getting Perisic because of his possible limited game time. Is that stoopid?

              I’m selling him personally.
              Happy with the points last 2 weeks. But I don’t think he’s 100% fit & Champions League is coming.
              He’s one for our wildcards in the coming weeks

              Perisic gone from 29 to 33bps and he's not even on the pitch. Genius

                This is the way.

                By far the best player on the pitch. Suprised its not more

                  Apparently the best player off the pitch as well.

              Davinson Sanchez is underrated imo

                Agree, he is solid in back 5
