There are five more Premier League matches taking place this afternoon, following on from the draw between West Ham United and Chelsea.

There’ll be plenty of attention from Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers on events at the Emirates, where Arsenal’s Double Gameweek begins with a clash against Brentford.

The Gunners are unchanged from their defeat at Everton, so there are starts for Gabriel Martinelli and Ben White after much discussion this week about their game-time.

Opponents Brentford make three changes from last weekend’s win over Southampton as part of their switch to a 3-5-2.

The defensive-minded alterations see Mads Roerslev, Kristoffer Ajer and Vitaly Janelt replace Aaron Hickey, Josh Dasilva and Yoane Wissa.

Above: Ownership and effective ownership stats in the top 10k, via LiveFPL. Five different Arsenal players are owned by more than 40% of these managers.

Arsenal’s north London rivals are also in action, away at Leicester.

Tottenham Hotspur make three changes to their side, two of which are enforced: Fraser Forster comes in for the injured Hugo Lloris, while Japhet Tanganga replaces the suspended Cristian Romero.

New signing Pedro Porro is also promoted to the line-up for his debut, with Emerson Royal benched.

Nampalys Mendy in for the injured Youri Tielemans is Leicester’s only change.

There are five alterations across the two teams in the M23 derby.

James Tomkins and Jean-Philippe Mateta replace Chris Richards and Odsonne Edouard for Palace, while the Seagulls recall Alexis MacAllister, Moises Caicedo and Adam Webster at the expense of Tariq Lamptey, Billy Gilmour and Danny Welbeck.

Evan Ferguson is fit again but only among the substitutes.

At Craven Cottage, Fulham are unchanged for the visit of Nottingham Forest.

Steve Cooper’s two alterations see Serge Aurier and Gustavo Scarpa come in for Neco Williams and Danilo.

Paul Onuachu and Kamaldeen Sulemana make their full Southampton debuts as Nathan Jones makes four changes, with Carlos Alcaraz and Ainsley Maitland-Niles also starting.

Che Adams, Samuel Edozie, Ibrahima Diallo and Mohamed Elyounoussi make way.

Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui makes only one change and it’s an enforced one at that: Hwang Hee-chan is injured, so is replaced by Joao Moutinho.

    Only defensive player I’ve got playing is Leno and it’s the only CS left in the 3pms.

  8. Pariße
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    They were looking at the wrong offside. Can’t believe this.

  9. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Bednarek has double figures in own goals now?

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

    Should be 3 bonus for Toney also, excellent!

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Good differential

  11. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

  13. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Instant sackable offence to lose to this shocking wolves side while 1-0 up and versus 10 men =[

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Should never have got rid of hassenhuttl imo

      1. TomSaints
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Nah we needed to change but just a poor selection.

        1. TheBiffas
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah this guy's way out of his depth

  14. DaniCT
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

  15. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Toney > Nketiah was always the right move this outcome is just classic FPL unlucky. Toney blanking against easy teams and scoring against Arsenal. Nketiah with the way higher xG but noooooo...of course things cant go that well cant they

  16. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    What the F is Ramsdale all about? Charging and flapping about instead of reading the situation properly and commanding his area. Gimp.

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Calm down mate have a beer

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I am calm. He is still a gimp though.

  17. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Toney to Nketiah not going as planned, yet at least.

  18. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Also how is Toney still playing?!? One of the biggest betting cheats in League history and he’s still out there…

    1. Scalper
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Not on your team I assume

      1. TomSaints
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Sold him when the betting scandal came to light and a 12m + ban was expected any day.

        Months later still nothing

        1. Old Bull
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Sorry but that’s poor research. Innocent until proven guilty and the word was that there would be no action until late February at the earliest.

      2. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        😆

    2. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It’s a league that allows Man City to operate so don’t be shocked

  19. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Martinelli to Ø fails!

  20. Hairy Potter
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Good job these last few performances for Arsenal have been meaningless given they've already won the league.

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

      Sewn up

  21. didas
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Ha ha Bednarek. That was awful.

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

    At least I have Toney

  23. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    And the benching nightmare continues:
    21: Rashford(ars) - 7pts
    22: Kane(MCI) - 8pts
    23: Toney(ars)- 9pts

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      In future just make a decision then do the opposite

  24. WVA
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Kepa blank, White blank, Martinelli blank, Odegaard blank, Kane blank

  25. FPL Brains
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    10 points from 5 players. What a rubbish start to the GW.

    1. Shultan
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Same

  26. Vlad Tepes
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Should have been offside on toney goal

    1. Feanor
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Not sure why they didn’t look at the last pass before the goal

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

      Have a word with yourself.

  27. Firmino
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    That last replay looked like offside. I want my White 9 points!

  28. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    5 players & no returns!

  29. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    DGW fail

  30. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Norgarrd looked offside
