The Sunday 4.30pm GMT kick-off sees Tottenham Hotspur host champions Manchester City in north London.

The big Fantasy Premier League (FPL) news is that Kevin De Bruyne starts on the bench again for tactical reasons, having also missed the reverse fixture at the Etihad in Double Gameweek 20.

Aymeric Laporte and Ilkay Gundogan are substitutes, while John Stones is absent from the matchday squad through injury. City are also without Phil Foden again.

“He was there at the hotel. He felt unwell all night – really, really bad.” – Pep Guardiola on Phil Foden

Kyle Walker, Nathan Ake, Bernardo Silva and Julian Alvarez all come into the starting XI.

Spurs, meanwhile, are unchanged from Gameweek 21, with new signing Pedro Porro on the bench.

GAMEWEEK 22 LINE-UPS

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Royal, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Perisic, Kulusevski, Son, Kane

Subs: Porro, Skipp, Sanchez, Richarlison, Danjuma, Sessegnon, Forster, Lenglet, Bissouma

Manchester City XI: Ederson, Walker, Akanji, Ake, Lewis, Rodri, Mahrez, Bernardo, Alvarez, Grealish, Haaland

Subs: Perrone, Dias, Phillips, Gundogan, Laporte, De Bruyne, Ortega, Gomez, Palmer

Akanji is my worst signing of the season and it's not even close.

Abysmal

Anyone put off using TC on Haaland next GW?
Might be a blessing in disguise he didn’t score fired up for next…

  It's arguably ideal for TC as he tends to haul after disappointing performances e.g. 13 points in GW17 and 17 in GW21. Can see them demolishing Villa!

    I'd agree with this. They've also probably got to go at Arsenal, a draw doesn't help them, so I will be captaining him and would TC if I had it

  Leicester scored four against Villa. Played TC Rashford full well knowing Haaland might score three against Villa, and then get nothing at Arsenal.

      Yeah you missed Haaland's 2pts and got Toney's 1pt instead. Still that was fun.

  Not sure Bruno is worth holding past Leicester. Yet I think there is much better things you can do with him than KDB

  City aren't solid enough at the back for me. A possibly a not bad move but wouldn't do it as part of B. C is tempting if you fancy the risk

Think I’m going Saka captain, just broke into 500 k with 81 points, it’s make or break.

Im looking forward to Liverpool being given 2 Premier League titles for the 13/14 and 18/19 seasons when they came 2nd to City during the period when City breached financial rules! Lol

reckon KDB will get more DGW than Mahrez in light of yesterday's game?
