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.

As for the all-important team news, Spurs are unchanged from Gameweek 24. That means Ivan Perisic and Son Heung-min both start on the bench again.

As for Chelsea, Graham Potter makes six changes to his first XI. In come Thiago Silva, Reece James, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Hakim Ziyech, Raheem Sterling and Kai Havertz.

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

GAMEWEEK 25 LINE-UPS

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Forster, Romero, Dier, Lenglet, Royal, Skipp, Hojbjerg, Davies, Kulusevski, Richarlison, Kane

    T Silva out probably means him to Estupinian (-4)

      At least I certainly won't be losing top 10k because of this injury 😉

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Wow nice going especially at this stage!

  2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    So close

  3. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Has to be a corner, you can’t just play on then bring it back

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      You can, for a few seconds..that's how advantage works

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Exactly but he wanted to bring it back for the original foul despite playing the advantage out to its conclusion

  4. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Where Kepa save points? Where Kane goal?

    1. Scalper
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      All going to Ben Davies

      1. lilmessipran
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Haha

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        3 years, 4 months ago

        Here’s hoping

  5. Over Midwicket
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    How is that not a Richardson YC?? So weird

  6. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    How come that wasn't yellow for Richa?!? I would have given it.

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      English refs

    2. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Derby game, letting a few go generally speaking

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Shouldn't really matter, not like it's for an accumulation of fouls or anything. It's a professional / tactical foul which is supposed to be a booking

        1. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Agreed, should of been a booking

  7. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Kane playing so deep, could maby assist the assister

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      more like Asssist the assist the assister

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Steady on

  8. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Oh dear Fofana down

  9. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Kane lucky to escape a YC

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Crooked refereeing:(

  10. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Both my boys fighting for no reason whatsoever, one of them gets booked soon

  11. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I think Spurs are owed a few yellow cards today...

  12. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Kepa chalking up the completed passes...

  13. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Kepa getting a YC later in the game to finish with 1 point. Just play the game and stop the clown act.

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah this is definitely happening

  14. Eze Really?
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What an awful game of football.
    The referees are partly to blame with allowing play acting and cynical fouls to be missed.

  15. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Havertz knocked Romero down. If we are not going to see cards, we shall see more injuries.

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      It was a coming together and im a spurs fan

  16. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Badiashile didn't even come on for T.Silva, do I get rid of ASAP?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I would, there are dgw players to get, I am planning T Silva to Estupinian.

  17. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Get Son on, the Father is not the same without his Son!

    1. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      And take who off?

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Rich

    2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Come to think of it, I actually have no idea Richarlison was preferred to him this game!

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Because he's a shytehouse?

        1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Got Hojbjerg for that

      2. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        You didn't notice last starting XI?!?

        1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Yes and I also noticed Son came on and bossed it

  18. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Richarlison is a load of rubbish

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Son loves playing Chelsea too! Conte lost it!

  19. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is it me or has the quality of attacks for teams in the premier league got significantly worse?

    Can’t remember a time where so many teams are lacking quality up front

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      The end of the traditional striker may have something to do with this. More teams trying to implement wingers but typically these don’t fit or are rubbish

    2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      The issue is, they’re all paid so much they don’t care

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Too much I should say

    3. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Maybe, teams are very well organised defensively as well

    4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Plus the wingers are asked to do more defensive work. Even the forwards are now tracking back.

      Used to have put and out strikers like Defoe, fowler, shearer, aguero, Cole, van nistelrooy

  20. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    For it to be called the best league in the world, the refereeing level should at least be higher than the Somalian league!

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Defending with fists allowed next

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        He just did. Extremely poor.

    2. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Do they have pirates as refs?

      1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        VARgh

      2. Goro Majima
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        The man in Blackbeard

      3. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Maybe, but I am sure they do a better job than what these jokers do.

        1. Goro Majima
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          They have to - if they're poor they get hooked at half time.

  21. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Mahrez, Nkietah, Badiashile, only Toney from Brentford, no Brighton… Forcing me to reconsider WC27, FH 28, BB 29 or WC 26, BB 27, FH 28

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Think I may use my WC FH and BB soonish as well

  22. JBG
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    The quality of football this weekend hasn't been good tbh... even City was kinda meh. Didn't watch West Ham v Forest.

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      England v wales was also one of the worst games of rugby I’ve ever watched

      1. Sandy Ravage
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        France v Scotland and Newcastle v Man U today should be more entertaining

      2. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        NZ putting up a good fight against England in the second test though

        1. Sandy Ravage
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          about time too

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I actually fell asleep during the Liverpool game despite having 3 players involved

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        That game was rubbish as well

    3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Unpopular opinion but city are boring to watch

      1. JBG
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I agree.. most matches they play are boring. Unless they have to chase a score or are a goal down

  23. RUUD!

  25. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    How only 3 mins of extra time? So many stoppages

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Would you rather have Spurs on about 4 YCs?

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        No I’d sooner have the appropriate stoppage time added

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I don't want to watch anymore of this than I have to tbh

  26. Atimis

    Have WC, FH and BB. When would you WC?

  27. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Ziyech idiot

  28. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Why would Ziyech do that right in front of the referee

  29. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Another bore fest of a match on sky.
