Gameweek 25 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues at the slightly earlier time of 13:30 GMT on Sunday, as Tottenham Hotspur welcome Chelsea to north London.

The Lilywhites ran out 2-0 winners over West Ham United last time out, while Chelsea’s poor form carried on in a 1-0 home defeat to Southampton.

This is the only Premier League match of the day, with Newcastle United and Manchester United doing battle in the EFL Cup final later.

Benoit Badiashile, Cesar Azpilicueta, Mateo Kovacic, Mason Mount, Noni Madueke and David Datro Fofana are the ones who drop out.

      Plays really well in that DM role.

    Conte out!
    Son in!!!

  3. Nate(U)dog(ie)

    Kepa clean sheet and Kane return, not too much to ask for

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Naa. Highly probable in fact.

    2. Scalper
      • 9 Years

      Kepa 60 min sub cs banked

    Come on SA!

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      That was an important wicket. Healy is a big game player. Always does well in the finals.

      1. Sandy Ravage
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Getting Healy's wicket early should help keep the potential total down. Wouldn't want to be chasing 160+ against the Aussies

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Yes. Considering it's a final. That added pressure makes you feel you are chasing 20 more.

          1. Sandy Ravage
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Too good. Life would be amazing as an Australian sports fan.

    Obviously what will happen will happen but as an owner of both Kepa and Kane Im a bit torn on what Im wishing for. Kepa is more of a differential than Kane so a Kepa clean sheet will be better for my rank but I really want Kane to punish the sellers who have made poor judgements

  6. Scapegoat Salah

    HERE WE GO!

  7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    That’s a pen

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Err no

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Very honest of you

      2. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Closer to yc imo

    2. Patio Kev
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      That was terrible dive from Sterling, never got touched, she have got booked.

  8. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Sterling attempts a dive to win a pen

    Nothing given

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He dropped out of the Neymar School of Diving, could have done better.

  9. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Need Felix brace and CS for Kepa and T Silva 😉 Chance probably just above zero, but neither will happen.

  10. Red Star Toro
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Kane pen missed, Kepa save too much to ask?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not at all, but not hoping for Kane pen 😉

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Be more careful what you wish for,

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Don't want to see Kane getting pen.

  11. Patio Kev
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    So Badiashile has helped keep 3 clean sheets in the 5 PL games he has started and can’t play in the CL but is dropped. Seems mad to me.

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      embarrassment of riches

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Owner spotted

    3. CABAYE4
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Worth recognising that he’s not in the CL squad because he wasn’t considered critical.

      1. MrZ
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Correction: his position wasn't considered critical

  12. The Final Boss
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Kepa 15 pointer and Kane -2 too much to ask??

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A little bit but I think Kepa 9 and Kane 2 is likely today.

  13. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    VAR gone From giving everything to nothing

  14. Biggsy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Hat-trick for each of Kane and Kepa, but Kepa still keeps a clean sheet and makes 12 saves too much to ask?

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’ve seen more unlikely things happen tbf

  15. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Long time I’ve seen sterling actually taking on players

    Good to see

  16. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Kane too dangerous

  17. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Silva down please god no

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Thought it was just a clash of knees but doesn't look great

    2. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Is that from an fpl perspective or chelsea fan perspective? Does it make their defence bad going forward?

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Silva is our best defender

        1. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Well shite Kepa gonna be a worse pick now

      2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Silva is one of the best CBs in the game even at his age

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Very worrying, limping now or trying to run it off.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        (I have to admit that I am worried from fpl point of view as T Silva and Kepa owner)

  18. Scalper
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Still awake

  19. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Silva lands a Muay Thai elbow on romero’s chin

    Nothing given

  20. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    RC ro Kane. Dangerous play.

  21. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    No Silva = Kane fun

    1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Kane unlikely to score from halfway line

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        17 prem goals from there so far this season 😉

  22. Scalper
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Rest up Thiago, Badiashile is here to help

  23. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Silva off

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

    why isn't badiashile replacing Silva?

    1. Scalper
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not on potters fpl team

      1. Bluetiger1
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        That is why Potter needs to go unfortunately as Badiashile has been Chelsea best defender this season bring on a player who has not featured much in a massive london derby

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Doesn't he normally play LCB?

  25. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Fofana coming on. Sorry Badiashile owners.

    1. Scalper
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      🙁

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Probably as Badiashile is more of a LCB, which is where KK is right now. Fofana RCB so makes sense.

  26. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Kome on Kane

  27. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Potter has Reece James (C)

  28. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Kepa 11 pointer banked then

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      With their best defender off?

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

        He was always getting 10. Should get some extra saves now.

  29. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    How on earth enzo 120m is beyond me

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

      Monopoly money. Skipp just as good and was free.

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Rice Caicedo McAlister all better than him

    2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Do you always judge quality of a player based on his FPL points?

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        No just real football

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      New owners conned - come in for a transfer & automatic another 20 million put on top. For Chelsea I would presume a ten year investment as a player that only cost 10 Million going for 120 Million total madness

  30. The Mighty Hippo
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What would happen in FPL if a goalkeeper went off injured and one of the outfield players had to take his place...then saved a pen. Would he get the save points?

    1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      The outfield player would get the points
