Gameweek 15 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) gets underway at 15:00 GMT this afternoon and there’s only one place to start with the team news.

Manchester City v Fulham is the headline act from a Fantasy perspective and there are notable benchings and omissions on both sides at the Etihad.

Erling Haaland is fit enough to return to the hosts’ matchday squad but is only among the substitutes, where he will warm the bench alongside Phil Foden.

The two starting centre-backs in midweek, Ruben Dias and Aymeric Laporte, are also benched.

There are, in fact, eight changes from the team that defeated Sevilla in midweek, with Ilkay Gundogan, Jack Grealish and Julian Alvarez the only ones to keep their places.

Fulham boss Marco Silva has made three alterations, all of them enforced.

Aleksandar Mitrovic is suffering from ankle pain, Bobby Decordova-Reid is suspended and Neeskens Kebano is out for several months after rupturing his Achilles.

Carlos Vinicius, Kenny Tete and Harry Wilson come into the side.

The other matches getting underway at the traditional kick-off time are Leeds United v Bournemouth, Nottingham Forest v Brentford and Wolverhampton Wanderers v Brighton and Hove Albion.

Leeds are unsurprisingly unchanged after their Gameweek 14 heroics at Anfield, while the only tweak for the Cherries sees Ryan Fredericks oust Jordan Zemura.

Brentford’s two changes are enforced, as Keane Lewis-Potter and Mads Roerslev come in for the injured Kristoffer Ajer and the suspended Ivan Toney.

Steve Cooper has responded to Nottingham Forest’s 5-0 defeat to Arsenal by recalling Neco Williams, Brennan Johnson and Emmanuel Dennis.

Jesse Lingard, Renan Lodi and Taiwo Awoniyi all drop to the bench.

At Molineux, visitors Brighton are unchanged from their 4-1 win over Chelsea.

Caretaker Wolves boss Steve Davis makes three changes from last weekend, having his hand forced with two of them.

Hwang Hee-Chan replaces the suspended Diego Costa up top, while Joao Moutinho comes in for the injured Matheus Nunes.

Winger Adama Traore drops to the bench as Goncalo Guedes returns to the starting XI.

      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        It's getting out of hand

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Haaland taking his shirt off was well worth it purely to see some of the childish reactions on here. Hilarious

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        F off, sir.

  23. DandyDon
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Haaland C!
    Still a big drop coming tonight for my team after a hit, Andreas benching and Foden in my team not KDB (or Trossard).

  24. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Haaland why u take ur shirt off? Just so we don't get bps??

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

      KDB got more points for the dive than Haaland got for the pen

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

        Ha what a surprise, I captained Haaland, rivals captained KDB

  25. bombonera
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Referee is in City Fulham game has been a disgrace. Every single call going City's way

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Wasn't that a clear penalty?

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

        Watch it again. Defender pulled out of it and De Bruyne flings himself down

        1. Pariße
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Soft pen but that was a very naive piece of defending. In one of the previous situations you could see how nervous he looked.

    2. BobB
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Like sending off Cancelo and disallowing a hairline Haaland goal?

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

        Cancelo was an obvious one and Haaland was offside so he's offside

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

      yeah that was a really soft pen

    4. Gubby-Allen
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Why were the crowd all signing to him "You're not fit to referee?"

    5. Gubby-Allen
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Referee not everybbig decision right.

      Fulham Penalty
      Man City Red Card
      Man City goal offside
      Man City penalty.

      Even as an Arsenal fan, the desperate for them to drop points, its a blatant penalty, the defender or any Fulham player didn't even eppeal it. Daft tackle.

      1. Gubby-Allen
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Got every decision right

  26. Pariße
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I don’t wanna be mean but that was a very low IQ move by Robinson. It was hard to watch them play this game, should’ve shown more ambition throughout the match.

    1. Gubby-Allen
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      They deserved the loss for slowing the game down, it was there for them to at least get a second

  27. fantasist
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Lingard goal??

  28. Debauchy
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Haaland haul next gw . sellers in a panic

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

    Forest G Lingz?

  30. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago
