Following on from Nottingham Forest’s shock win over Liverpool, there are two more Gameweek 13 matches taking place at the traditional kick-off time.

Manchester City take on Brighton and Hove Albion at the Etihad, while Everton face Crystal Palace at Goodison Park.

Benchings, injury-enforced omissions and blanks caused Fantasy Premier League (FPL) disappointment in the lunchtime game and now there’s more misery for some Fantasy bosses, with the most-bought player of Gameweek 13, Phil Foden, benched in the league for the first time this season.

Pep Guardiola has made three changes in total from Sunday’s defeat at Liverpool, with Foden, Ilkay Gundogan and Nathan Ake all dropping to the bench.

Jack Grealish, Riyad Mahrez and Aymeric Laporte replace them in the hosts’ XI.

Visitors Brighton are unchanged from Gameweek 12.

And Everton boss Frank Lampard has also resisted the urge to rotate despite a three-game losing streak, naming the same side that lost to Newcastle.

There are two changes to the Crystal Palace team that beat Wolves 2-0, one of which is enforced.

Jeffrey Schlupp drops to the bench and Cheick Doucoure is banned, so in come Jordan Ayew and skipper Luka Milivojevic.

GAMEWEEK 13 LINE-UPS

Everton XI: Pickford, Tarkowski, Onana, Calvert-Lewin, Gordon, Gray, Iwobi, Mykolenko, Coleman, Gueye, Coady.

  3. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    If I can get out of this game with 1pt from Zaha and Guehi combined, I'll call that a win.

    1. Indpush
      • 8 Years

  4. The Tinkerman

    So Maddison > Trossard > Foden was a disaster, wish I kept the FTs now

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Almost as bad as de Bruyne > Salah at the same time for -4

  5. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    Everton's midfield are so good, Iwobi reborn!

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years

  6. Bounce

      Bowen & Maddi?

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Really don’t like Bowen, got rid actually before this GW for Saka

        Maybe back to Maddison is an idea though

    3. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Almiron/ Bruno G

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years

        Haha cheers. Almiron I’m warming up to

    4. Paqueta Rice

      3 years, 5 months ago

      Antony and Bowen

  8. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I know a disproportionate amount of footballers are religious, and have a right to display their beliefs if they so wish, without overpromoting through religious symbols or preaching to susceptible child audiences, but Foden's monk bowl cut is a step too far for TV broadcast imo

    1. Dannyb
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      It's awful isn't it, surely he can't think it looks decent.

      1. el polako
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        If he wasn't a pro footballer he'd probably be spending his evenings at Asda carpark in an old Vauxhall Corsa with "go faster" stickers all over it.

        Don't expect good taste from the lad.

  9. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    This is FPL all over again, next week CRY (SOU), Zaha Guehi hauls when nobody owns them ...

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years

      Sods law mate

  10. ☈☾
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      PIVAAAAT

  11. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Zaha consolation please? Foden anything please?

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

    So just back Palace at home then

  13. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    So Foden is back to a bit player unlike KDB, fell head first into that one!

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

      It's the first time he's been benched all season

    2. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Even KDB gets rested

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Everyone needs to be rotated now and then. He was one of the first players brought on when they started to struggle & Mahrez looking like poo

    4. Josh.E
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      if you owned a few weeks earlier, you wouldn't say this

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        This. He’s been great

  14. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    HOLD Zaha, Guehi, Foden, Cancelo!!

    1. Totalfootball
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Held.

  15. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Took a hit to get in Foden

    Benched Trossard

  16. Mozumbus
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Hurray Pickford gang!

    1. Santi sensei
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      He was one save away from a save point. And Palace had none on target whole second half!

  17. Santi sensei
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Thanks fek pep. I hope u dont win both PL and CL this season

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Salah scored more then Foden, one positive for cappers

  18. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Zaha has just too much anger in him sometimes. You’ll never see Saka elbowing an opponent because he didn’t win a free kick.

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      He is always a red card waiting to happen and opposition target him because they know he is easy to wind up. Tarkowski done it all game

      1. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I’m sick of him tbh. Disgusted with myself that I transferred Saka out in GW10 for him. Worst transfer I’ll make this season

    2. el polako
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      South London ting.

    3. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years

      You should be a content creator mate

  19. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Early thoughts for one week only? Which scores more:

    A) Ramsdale (NFO) + Zaha (SOU)
    B) Ward (MCI) + Foden (lei)
    C) Ward (MCI) + Saka (NFO)

    ???
    Trent Trippier Cucurella
    KDB ??? Martinelli Odegaard
    Haaland Darwin Mitrovic

    Iversen | Jomez, Andreas, Guehi

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      KDB sees me into the top 2m! WOoo!

  20. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Need a maths degree to work out my points this week

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Yes please i need some amusement

  21. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Gordon finally returns… on my bench, where I’m not getting those points

    One of those weeks!

  22. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Two more GW until the worst World Cup in history

    1. Santi sensei
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Time for a McDonalds

  23. fish&chips
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Paqueta, kane & Doherty-> TAA, martinelli and Jesus (-8) last night instead of kane and paqueta -> Haaland & Andreas (-4) not going well at all

    1. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      No sympathy, why you don't have Haaland is your own fault.

      1. fish&chips
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Guilty as charged. Thought I could bet against the pack by prioritising Liverpool and arsenal against forest but was always a big risk

        1. Zenith UK
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Then you should've had Haaland and Salah. I have both and Kane right now (not that I'm doing well lol)

    2. FPL_trail_runner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      In what world is a -8 a good move

      especially when you dont have Haaland

    3. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Unlucky mate. That’s variance for you. Who knew Haaland might do something

      1. fish&chips
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        😀

  24. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Bernardo Silva for President!

  25. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Solanke, I am one again relying on you for a green arrow 😆

  26. el polako
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Ever Boris is more likely to return than Salah.

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      *Even

    2. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Hahaha

  27. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Ederson gets his assist

    1. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Brazil gonna insanely use their goalies for long balls next month

  28. Mozumbus
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I might keep Salah for one more GW

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      How long you been saying that 13 weeks?

      1. Mozumbus
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yes. Then kept him for the blank.
        Accommodated him in the WC as well.
        Now, with Foden I can't switch to KDB without a hit, since it can backfire.
        So better to roll FT, if no issues elsewhere, and sort in GW15, and then never look back lol.

  29. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    All season I've been anti-Salah, and for whatever reason I decided to get him last week.

    You know all I want for one season of FPL, more than ANYTHING. I just the fixtures to happen when they're supposed to. No BGWs. No DGWs. Just GWs as expected. So frustrating.

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah thats shocking picking Salah after all this time

      1. Zenith UK
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I didn't stay strong 🙁
        Tbf was always a two week gamble. Just infuriating having to lose KDB for him. Oh well

        Salah & Longstaff > Foden & Maddison for free GW14 let's run it

  30. They are eating the dogs
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Something is seriously wrong with FPL or Livescore. Phil Foden in my team already have 1 point and 28min played. But he is still on the bench according to Livescore. WTF?
