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

    I just noticed that on the points tab of FPL, they no longer show the transfers made / hits for the gw 🙁

    Can still go to Total Transfers and work it out, but then you have to also work out whether the team had 1 or 2 free transfers

    1. banskt
      • 12 Years

      I have the 'Transfers' tab for previous gameweeks.

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

        There's probably other ways, but when having a quick look through my ML rivals, I just want to see their current team, whether they have done any transfers this week and any hit points ... that's what we use to be able to see on the same screen

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      If you go to Gameweek History under a player's team you can see how many transfers they made and the cost (TC) if any. Still a pain though to have to look for it I agree

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

        Thanks ... I reckon they just forgot as opposed to deliberately removed the information from the Points screen

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

          Use livefpl has all the info u need including transfers made

  2. tangtastic

    Spurs seem to be focussing down the left..

  3. Royal5

    Son very poor so far

  4. Custard Gannet
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Please forgive me if I'm being stupid, but where do you see what moves an opponent has made?
    It used to say on the main page how many transfers were made and any point deductions. Cannot seem to find that information anywhere since the look got updated.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      It now doesn't show that on the team page AFAIK. You need to go into click the teams transfer page to show all. Tad annoying.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Just to add, it does say on team page ALL transfers - but not the cumber of transfer for just htis week. Have to go to transfer history for that.

      2. Custard Gannet
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah it's a little annoying having to dig around for the information when it used to be right above the team.
        Thanks for the heads up.

      3. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Last week it showed what transfers people made after the first match I think? If you go on GW2, you can see how many transfers a team made.

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          The count says 'Total transfers'. which was coincidentally the GW2 count since you can't make (countable) transfers ahead of GW1. Presume it just shows totals across season now unless you click into history.

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

            It might also be a glitch in their website, it says "highest points" twice for some reason. Then after the first match will change to "total transfers" like it seemed to last week.

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

        .. and dig around to see if 1 or 2 FT, whether they played WC or FH etc.

    2. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      See my post at the top of this page ... Go to Gameweek History, you see the columns for TM and TC

      I have sent an email to FPL, hopefully it was just a bug that they will fix

  6. Silecro

    Every attack goes through Kulu so far

  7. Rainer

    Spurs goal coming...

  8. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    I went with no Spurs assets on my WC, taking out both Perisic and Son and elected not to get Kulu and I'm worried right now

    1. Royal5

      Assist?

      1. Zenith UK
        • 9 Years

        Not a goal, but negative BAPs

  10. FPL Emu

    Who are these BT commentators? Jenas? They are dreadful!

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

      Bt is always dreadful

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

      They need Peter Drury

    3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      They are all terrible. Mcmanaman, Owen, hoddle, savage

      Jenas is probably the least detestable

      1. FPL Emu
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        This is next level stuff imo. A different tier of bad

    4. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Idk how the main commentator landed that job, very lucky man

    5. Fabreghastly

      Ex Spurs midfielder

    6. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      They have some of the worst of the worst. McManaman, Jenas, "Fletch"

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

      Loved hearing Jenas getting destroyed for the Bentacur comment. You can't call Bentacur classy when Joao Moutinho is on the pitch.

      Like a bit drama and tension between commentators 👿

    8. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I don't think I have ever heard anyone of here ever praise a commentator. Is it because
      a) they're all footballers, so as thick as two short planks
      b) their English is poorly constructed and unintelligible
      c) their football analysis skills are lacking
      d) we all enjoy slagging off commentators
      e) none of the above
      f) all of the above

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Partly c, partly english commentators mostly act as if you are blind by telling you the names of players

  11. balint84
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Kilman is good

  12. Mr Arsenal
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Don’t get me wrong - as an Arsenal fan, I’m enjoying watching Spurs looking so one paced and rubbish.

    As a Kane captained however, this is looking really bad.

    1. Siva Mohan
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      PL first .. FPL later

      enjoy Spuds!

      1. Mr Arsenal
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I captained Kane cos it makes it less painful for me if he scores.

    2. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Worst scenario if spurs score and Kane not involved

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

    Wolves with Jiminez back look a very good top 10 side

    1. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Agree. Just don’t have a finisher here.

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

      So much has changed after his injury

  14. EDUARDO DA SILVA
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Son and Davies with poor football IQ, how can they don’t see perisic runs?

    1. tangtastic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      He's getting into good positions, but his team mates are failing bad at trying to find him

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Is that surprising in the first game they've started together?

    3. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Davies, yes. Son these days looks at how every move/ pass benefits him first. That free kick was a prime example of the same. He has started making a few not so decent calls lately.

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

    Wolves should sign Ronaldo

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

      Rest of the team have to take the pay cut then

    2. Siva Mohan
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      captain and coach

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

      he is large

  16. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Nothing game so far

  17. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Jesus 80% ownership, imagine watching the late kick off not owning!

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I’m fearful for owners when he starts blanking and when arsenal start to turn back to their usual selves

      Which he will and which arsenal will . He’s quite over rated. Even the best players in fpl ever were never this highly owned

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        True, but he looks up for it being 9 for Arsenal

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

          Arsenal will come 2nd to City this season. Bookmark this for end of season banter.

          1. Drexl Spivey
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            Don't think I'll bother, tbh.

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Spurs have been awful

  19. jonny77
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Don't prem squads need to have at least 8 homegrown players? Is it me or do Wolves only have like 2 or 3? Half the team are portuguese

    1. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      The wolves of Lisbon innit

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Read the rule is 17 non-home-grown maximum. However they don't have to declare some under a certain age. So whilst they are 'short' of home-grown, not in offence currently.

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

    Spurs not clicking yet

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      WOL doing well

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

    Davies couldn't find Perisic if he was wearing a high viz jacket with disco lights.

  22. Drexl Spivey
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone else with only three players today?

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      One more than you.. 3x Arsenal + pereira

      1. Drexl Spivey
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Hope Pereira brings you a haul.

        1. FC Hakkebøf
          • 9 Years

          Thank you, very kind of you.

  23. Paqueta Rice

    Please Kane, I don’t think I can handle an early kick off captain fail. Need some luck for a change!

  24. DRIZ ✅

    CR9 at the game

    1. LILIOMFI

    2. The Knights Template

  26. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Wolves 68% possession

  27. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Conte has trained them too hard

  28. Piggs Boson

    You can always mute the game and play the Talksport commentary in the background. https://talksport.com/radioplayer/live/index.html

    Wolves will defo score. They’re looking really pretty good

    1. Josh.E
