Double Gameweek 19 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) finally reaches its conclusion tonight, with Fulham v Chelsea getting underway at 20:00 GMT.

The hosts have won all four of their matches since the World Cup, while Graham Potter’s side currently sit 10th in the table, after a run of just one win in eight Premier League games.

As for the all-important team news, Chelsea hand a debut to new signing Joao Felix after he joined on loan from Atletico Madrid. The Portuguese, priced up as a £7.5m forward by FPL towers, lines up alongside Mason Mount and Kai Havertz in attack.

“It’s a combination of a lot of things: his training, the quality he has and the team needs a little bit of lift in terms of the ability he has. He’s a confident boy and he just wants to play. He’s just got to be himself. He hasn’t had that much time with the players, just about expressing himself.” – Graham Potter on why Joao Felix is starting

Elsewhere, Lewis Hall starts in place of Marc Cucurella, who drops to the bench, having struggled against Man City last time out.

Marco Silva, meanwhile, makes just one change from the 1-0 win at Leicester, as Carlos Vinicius starts up front in place of the suspended Aleksandar Mitrovic.

“He [Mitrovic] will get some rest, but [Carlos] Vinicius will get as many moments as we can get him because he is one of our main options to start as a striker. It is a great chance for him but to also give Mitrovic a bit of a break. But he is still training well and these things are good signs for us. Hopefully he will be back playing his best for us in the next few games, but for now the main solution is Vinicius.” – Marco Silva

    Evening all, feels a bit of a mess with the Darwin news and Trossard being an awful pick post WC, what to do with 2FT and 1.1m itb

    Ederson

    Tripper / Botman / Digne (wtf was I thinking)

    Martinelli / Almiron / KdB / Andreas

    Darwin* / Kane / Haaland

    Ward / Bueno / White / Trossard*

    Thinking Trossard, Darwin, Digne > Mitoma, Nketiah, Doherty leaving plenty in the bank? Could also be Ferguson/Odegaard?

    Also not allowed Man Utd players hence no Rashford/Shaw etc which is hurting atm

      Can you smell that?

      Smell it?

      Smells like a wildcard.

      2 FT. Dump darwin and digne and trossard

      WHY NO man U players?

  8. FCSB
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 days ago

    Is Cancelo >> Stones worth (-4) as a long term move?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 days ago

      Stones "isn't fully fit"

      1. FCSB
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 days ago

      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 days ago

      Brainless high tackle with studs showing on a player's leg

      No injury, but clearly reckless

      1. ZeBestee

    Kepa/Ward
    Cancelo White Trippier Shaw Bueno

    Mitrovic Haaland Darwin

    Cancelo to Botman/Stones
    Foden to KDB
    Nunez to Kane

    -8 seem good here? Cancelo to Stones/Botman, Foden to KDB, Darwin to Kane. If not any suggestions? Never been so lost in a gw

  23. Sun Jihai

    • 14 Years
