Gameweek 13 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues on Sunday with four 2pm BST matches.

The headline team news comes from St Mary’s, where Bukayo Saka is fit to start for Arsenal despite picking up a knock against PSV on Thursday. Oleksandr Zinchenko remains sidelined with a calf injury, so Takehiro Tomiyasu deputises again, having got the nod in the last two league matches.

Southampton make three changes, with Lyanco, Ibrahima Diallo and Stuart Armstrong coming in for Kyle Walker-Peters, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Che Adams.

Aston Villa are under caretaker management after Steven Gerrard’s sacking, with Aaron Danks making three alterations. Matty Cash, Leander Dendoncker and Emiliano Buendia are all handed starts, as Jan Bednarek, Jacob Ramsey and captain John McGinn drop out. Douglas Luiz is available after his red card against Fulham in midweek was overturned on appeal.

Brentford make just the one change, as Kristoffer Ajer comes in for Ben Mee.

At Elland Road, Jesse Marsch makes wholesale changes, bringing in Luke Ayling, Liam Cooper, Pascal Struijk, Sam Greenwood and Rodrigo. Tyler Adams (muscle injury) is among those who drop out along with Patrick Bamford. The latter’s fitness is still being managed, with Marsch perhaps not wanting to push him to the limit.

Opposite number Marco Silva recalls Tosin Adarabioyo at the expense of Issa Diop, while Harry Wilson replaces Neeskens Kebano. Daniel James, meanwhile, is ineligible to face his parent club.

Wolves have no new injury concerns but interim boss Steve Davis makes two changes to the starting XI that lost to Crystal Palace, as Jonny and Joao Moutinho are preferred to Nelson Semedo and Boubacar Traore, both of whom are substitutes. Rayan Ait-Nouri is free from illness but is also benched, with Hugo Bueno preferred at left-back having impressed on his full debut at Selhurst Park.

James Maddison returns from a one-match ban for Leicester City, while Patson Daka is brought back into the side up top at Molineux.

    So I'm tired of Mitro scoring so I'll buy him

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

      It's time to sell after Everton!

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I sold him when he was "injured"... Need Toney to match him or Toney can go.

  2. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Are you kidding me. Andreas misses alone with the keeper.

  3. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    Andreas needs to relax...

  4. Scapegoat Salah

      1. Scapegoat Salah

    8. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    9. Babit1967
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Benched along with Castagne who will likely get a cs

    10. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years

      Benched trossard and neco points instead

    11. Old Man

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

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

        Middle East maybe

    2. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      MLS or China?

      1. Bartowski
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Middle East I reckon.

    3. The Knights Template

      1. Bartowski

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

    Need a Toney goal or two.

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

    Shouldn't it be a RC for punching Jesus in the back?

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

      They didn’t even look at it

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

        I don't get it. Commentators didn't seem bothered either. Can't lash out at people like that

    2. Konstaapeli
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      This ref prefers to give yc to the victims

    3. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Should have punched him in the face

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

        Why?

        1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Why not?

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

            Voilence is rude

            1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              Only if it’s not on Arsenal players

            2. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              Rude is a strange word to associate with violence btw

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

                Thanks for the lesson old school

                1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
                  • 14 Years
                  3 years, 5 months ago

                  Anytime

  10. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Thank you to the juhuuu guy for convincing me to start Andreas over Dalot

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Daniel I think his name is

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

    Sold Sterling (3) and Trossard (7) to Foden (1) and Saka (currently 0) for a -4. Andreas and Williams benched. Guehi and co in my team. 2,0,0,1,1,1,26,1

  12. mad_beer ✅
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I'm so good, I transferred out KDB and Bailey this week. At least I got Foden and Martinelli. 😐

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      that’s FPL in a nutshell

  13. FCHaalandaise
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Sold KDB for Salah two weeks ago
    Got Foden back in this week no KDB
    Benched Andreas last 3 out of 4 but played his blank last midweek.
    Sold Xhaka ages ago
    Pulled out on Guehi to White last minute
    No Mitro all season.

    Should I go on?

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

      Oh and Trossard to Foden was the move

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        In fairness, over time that move should more than pay off.

        Unfortunately, the short term view is looking at this week only and seeing Trossard outscore Foden.

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

      I'm at 500k mate, constant bad decisions
      Had mitro GW8, 9, 10 for 1,2,0 then sold & he's scored 3 in a row

    3. tokara
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      It is always about the next gw

      Not last

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

        I think maybe I quit for next week haha

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

    This ref in the Arsenal game is very antagonistic

  15. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Bailey and Neco rooted to my bench 😀

    Love to see them pushing for starts in my squad.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years

      Ditto

  16. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Dial up but Pereira completely not clinical. Got 50 meters of time to consider and decided to show where is going to shoot for 5 seconds... 😀

  17. JBG
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

  18. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Hopefully give the Saints a penalty soon

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

      The way Arsenal have been getting decisions this season? No chance!

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

        Yawn

      2. JBG

  19. FPL Emu
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    In a week where all the pressure was on getting Foden or Saka, I went with the very boring Pope to Ramsdale. Reeeeally need to get rewarded for that one now

    1. popey

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Nose run?

  26. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Martinelli is such a tease!

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years

      Nose tease?

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 5 Years

        You been on the nose bag?

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

    Is White nailed also when everyone is fit?

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

      Yes

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      For the next 3 at least.

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

      Nope, but I think most would say yes

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

        I know technically the answer is no, but Arteta isn't one to change up a winning team when White has been performing so well.

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

          If Tomi plays well in a winning EL game or two, he could easily get into a PL lineup or two imo. Technically, Arteta would be changing a winning team by bringing White back into the PL lineup after rotating Tomi into RB position in EL. Could mean Tomi starts over White in GW 15 and/or 16, though I would still predict White at this point/

      2. thericeking
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Really. No nose for white

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

      Great success. If Mitro is not injured then White is probably my next move but need to still think about if I want to save that 0.5-0.7 or go Gabriel/Saliba.

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

        I'd prefer White to Saliba

    It just wouldn't be acceptable in any other line of work

      It’s not always a case of downing tools, being unhappy and unmotivated will cause a loss of form.
