Gameweek 13 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) concludes on Monday, with West Ham United v Bournemouth getting underway at 20:00 BST.

The Hammers were beaten by Liverpool last time out but have won two league matches in a row at home, while the visitors’ unbeaten run under Gary O’Neil came to an end against Southampton in Gameweek 12.

David Moyes makes just one change for West Ham, as Said Benrahma comes in for Pablo Fornals, who drops to the bench.

That means Gianluca Scamacca starts his fifth consecutive league match, with Michail Antonio potentially held back for Europa Conference League duty on Thursday.

However, Craig Dawson and Maxwel Cornet both miss out, while the game also comes too soon for Lucas Paqueta.

As for Bournemouth, they have no fresh injury concerns and are unchanged from the side that were beaten 1-0 by Southampton.

Dominic Solanke, owned by 3.6% of managers, leads the line hoping to add to his tally of six attacking returns (two goals, four assists).

GAMEWEEK 13 LINE-UPS

West Ham United XI: Fabianski, Johnson, Zouma, Kehrer, Cresswell, Soucek, Rice, Bowen, Downes, Benrahma, Scamacca

Subs: Areola, Randolph, Coufal, Ogbonna, Emerson, Lanzini, Coventry, Antonio, Fornals

Bournemouth XI: Neto, Fredericks, Mepham, Senesi, Smith, Lerma, Cook, Christie, Billing, Tavernier, Solanke

Subs: Travers, Stacey, Zemura, Stephens, Rothwell, Stanislas, Pearson, Moore, Anthony

        Oh Solanke wasn’t it, if it’s any consolation he’d have got a second half hat trick had he stayed on

        1. Hazz

    How on earth is that given it hit his hand

      • 8 Years

      The rules are difficult to understand. If its the goal scorer its disallowed, but when it is incident before a goal is scored its not.
      For me thats a handball because its intent. Looks like Kehrer used to play volleyball in his youth, because thats a lovely play up ball.
      Refs are vad and rules are allowing handballs in a game called football.

    2. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Unintentional, unintended

  8. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS

    Benched Dier and Trippier

    Played Zouma.

    Can die happy now

      Great shout - brave but if it stays possible 12points plus

    2. Brimble82
      • 7 Years

      Unlike Zouma’s cat.

    3. El Presidente

      Pro player

  9. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    What are the rules and where is the consistency?

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Apparently, these days, it's not handball if you use both your arms.

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        The goal doesn’t effect my fpl team and I’m not bothered about either team playing but the inconsistency is infuriating!

  10. King Carlos
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Oh look. It's the cat abuser piece of #$%^...

    1. The Abyss
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Horrible excuse for a human.

      1. George Sillett
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        There are many footballers who would qualify for that accolade

  11. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Going Walker instead of Zouma on a WC still hurts :I

  12. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    More nonsence but we cant be surprised anymore. The most obvious hand ball you will ever see. The West Ham player playing volleyball.

  13. DycheDycheBaby
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If Kehrer gets a clean sheet, that's 30 points on my bench. Can anyone beat that? 😀

  14. The Abyss
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Thought if it hit a hand as part of the build up to a goal, it’s disallowed, regardless of whether it was intentional or not?

    1. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Looked a handball to me, but apparently hit his chest? And yes, intentional or not, a handball disallows a goal.

    2. Hits from the Bong
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      That's only if it's the goalscorer

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Correct

        If an attacking player’s accidental handball immediately precedes another player scoring, the goal will now be awarded, when last season it was likely to have been ruled out.

        However, a player will still be penalised if he commits an accidental handball immediately before scoring himself.

        The frustration is the application of the rule from the officials

        1. Hits from the Bong
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          The problem is it didn't look accidental and they benefitted massively from it. I'm a West Ham fan and I don't think it should have stood

          1. BUZZBOMB ♡
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Why do you think it didnt look accidental out of interest? He could and should have scored himself and it would take top skills to have jumped way out of time, shrunk his shoulders with his eyes closed and still put it where he wanted it with his hands that were crossed at his abdomen?

            1. Hits from the Bong
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              One angle looked like he flicked it up like a volleyball set. It wasn’t an impossible to avoid ball to hand, and I think if you can’t avoid punching the ball like that to create a goal, then the goal should be disallowed whether accidental or not

  15. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Why do we actually have VAR? It's bloody useless and inconsistent! 🙁

    1. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      VAR isn't useless if it's administered correctly.

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Whatever mate, we can't make it work then technology becomes useless

    What a fekking week...now Solanke off injured.

    1. g40steve

      WC13?

      1. bso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        No, regular week.

  17. FPL Emu
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    One of the most surprising VAR decisions I have seen. Someone with Zouma no doubt

  18. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Is there an assist for that goal?

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Soucek I thought

      1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yup

    2. BC1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Soucek

    3. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 8 Years

      Cheers!

    Each game has a different set of rules these days.

  20. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    How safe is Johnson in that West Ham defense?

    1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      About as safe as Marsch is …

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Wait until game finished

      Johnson has played last two games - 90 mins & at the moment first 45 mins so on current form
      looks promising

  21. Firminooooo
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Solanke and Bowen. Will probably end up with a bigger red arrow after this game. Gameweek from hell.

    1. bso
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      In the same boat.

  22. bryant
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    downes robbed of an assist lol

    1. bryant
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      or a goal

  23. Supersonic_
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Need Bowen to do something this half, horrendous watch though

    1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Should open up more second half, I'd bet on it.

    2. Firminooooo
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      100% blank. I just hope he dont miss a penalty. 3 points would be a haul.

  24. BUZZBOMB ♡

    Thats the bottom line. Thats the rule. Interpreted spot on.

    And he couldnt have put his hands anywhere else to make it any less of an accident.

    My bench is Zouma, Andreas, Neco and Ward.

    .....

    1. valurth
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Zouma, Almiron, N. Williams. Playing Solanke, Trippier, Gomez

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      You put them on the bench for a reason .

    3. PogChamp
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      That's just cruel. Don't think I've had 3 subs all with returns.

  26. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    On the plus side, I bought in Zouma for Emerson on Friday and started him this week.

    1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Congrats you dirty cat abuser apologist! 😆

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I genuinely forgot all about that.

        I shall transfer him out in disgust this week.

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

    Harsh on Bournemouth defence owners

  28. The Knights Template
    • 12 Years

    I saw Michael Fabricant today for the first time ever. Boy I laughed. Laughed and laughed.

  29. The Senate
    • 7 Years

    Wait - what’s the handball rules these days?

  30. valurth
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Zouma, Almiron, N. Williams on bench
    🙁
    Had Solanke playing. Just watched Solanke go out injured and one minute later Zouma score.
    This is what I call enjoying monday night Football.

    1. Supersonic_
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      That's rather unfortunate
