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.

    was looking like a disastrous week but i would have captained Cancelo if the game was working before deadline! Would still be nice if Haland or Foden came on like.

    Absolutely loving the fact that many changed their captain from Erling to Cancelo on the basis of rumoured early team news giving them an “edge”.

  15. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

  22. RamaJama

  23. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Glad I bench boosted now anyway to try and offset this s**t awful luck already this GW, and the same as every GW

  24. threeputt
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    On the one hand I'm laughing cos I swapped out Cancelo to Akanji on my WC and I know every man and his dog has Cancelo, then I realise Andreas is sat 3rd on my bench

  25. The Mandalorian
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Pep will have to play Foden and Haaland now to keep the team fresh.

    Both perfect counter attack players.

  26. Taff
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    The crowning turd will be for Haaland and Foden to come on now and keep Perreira on my bench!! What a week!

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Almost guaranteed

  27. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Surely Andreas is fairly low owned this week. No big deal.

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      https://www.livefpl.net/autosubs
      4.4% old EO
      25.5% new EO (but depends if Haaland/Foden stay off)

    2. Mike2795647
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Probably was but with Mitrovic, Haaland and Foden benched there will be quite a few hoping for no shows to get the points.

    3. Taff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      But doubly annoying when he’s sat as my first sub!

  28. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Anyone going back to TAA for GW16?

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No thanks

    2. Pino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Have Salah and Robertson. Cancelo to Trent vs Southampton is my move.

  29. banskt
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Haaland(c). Alvarez(vc). KDB. Mitrovic.

    Pereira first on bench.
