Fulham v Leeds United has the tough act of following on from last night’s six-goal thriller at the Emirates.

Kick-off at Craven Cottage is at 12:30 BST.

There’d ordinarily not be a great deal of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) interest in this match, and in truth, there may be less riding on it than any of the other seven Blank Gameweek 32 fixtures.

Still, budget buy Andreas Pereira was transferred in by almost 200,000 FPL managers ahead of Friday’s deadline, in time for a meeting with the division’s leakiest defence.

Bernd Leno also gained around 100,000 new owners, with Fulham assets in the ‘sensible differential’ envelope after Leeds experienced back-to-back heavy defeats.

As for the team news, Marco Silva makes one enforced change: Bobby DeCordova-Reid is in for the ineligible Daniel James up top.

Javi Gracia responds to Leeds’ 6-1 thumping by Liverpool by making three alterations.

Junior Firpo, Pascal Struijk and Luis Sinisterra drop to the bench, with Liam Cooper, Max Wober and Crysencio Summerville taking their places.

Patrick Bamford returns from injury as a substitute.

GAMEWEEK 32 LINE-UPS

Fulham XI: Leno, Tete, Adarabioyo, Ream, Robinson, Reed, Palhinha, Wilson, Pereira, Willian, De Cordova-Reid.

Subs: Rodak, Duffy, Kebano, Cairney, Solomon, Soares, Lukic, Vinicius, Diop.

Leeds United XI: Meslier, Kristensen, Koch, Cooper, Wober, McKennie, Roca, Harrison, Aaronson, Summerville, Rodrigo.

Subs: Robles, Ayling, Firpo, Forshaw, Bamford, Struijk, Sinisterra, Rutter, Gnonto

              You’d think Forest would catch on, but no!

              Anything less than 5 is a huge letdown

          • 9 Years

          Did Maddison+Rashford to Salah+Andreas (-4) last week. It’s paid off brilliantly so far!

        4. GENERATION X
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          Well done if you got him on FH or a transfer otherwise was an obvious starter

          1. Edalock
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Most underrated Andreas as a FH pick due to price

      • GENERATION X

        Gakpo v Jota owner catfight coming soon

        1. I Member
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          Switched from Jota to Gakpo just before the deadline. Fearing the worse.

          1. fish&chips
            • 15 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            At least you didn't leave him on the bench like me...

          2. JELLYFISH
            • 13 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Same

        2. Edalock
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          VVD owner here

        3. Ruinenlust
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          Jota will outscore Gakpoo for sure

        4. Mirror Man
            2 years, 8 months ago

            People argue over the silliest things eh

          • fish&chips
            • 15 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Vs Isak for those of us who stupidly decided to switch Jota to Gakpo 1 minute before the deadline and didn't have time to pull him off the bench. Oh that was just me then

          • Nate(U)dog(ie)
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Can I join? I moved Jota out for VVD so I could play Solanke

          • Camzy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            It's overwhelmingly in favor of Gakpo among content creators and engaged managers I've found.

            Jota is a big differential.

          • GENERATION X
            • 12 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Jota clawed Gaks eyes out

        5. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          Tarkowski goal too much to ask?

            • 3 Years

            I reckon he’ll nab one

          1. Ruinenlust
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Martinelli

          2. Amartey Partey
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            I’m currently benching March.

          There are a lot of bald people in the crowd.

          1. Mirror Man
              2 years, 8 months ago

              Maddison owners imo

              1. The Knights Template
                • 12 Years
                2 years, 8 months ago

                Agree, they’re slapping their bonces like bongo drums.

            • Fitzy.
              • 14 Years
              2 years, 8 months ago

              Pretty brave from a bloke who hides his melon under a helmet

              1. The Knights Template
                • 12 Years
                2 years, 8 months ago

                In Australia we call bald people ‘Mobys’.

              No, Olise off bench, that's fine.

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member

              Correct.
              Got Solanke on bench and couldn’t make decision. I’m glad they did it for me.

            3. Bobby Digital

            • 8 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Andreas v Leeds was such an obvious pick. I guess everyone was fooled by the price tag. Not me though.

            1. fish&chips
              • 15 Years
              2 years, 8 months ago

              Me neither. Congratulations brother

            2. Edalock
              • 8 Years
              2 years, 8 months ago

              Massively overlooked, so happy I went with my guts on FH.

              Could have had 2 today as well. Beautiful differential

            3. Ligdon
              • 10 Years

              • 12 Years

              If only you would link your team so I could learn from you

            5. Superflymonk
              • 11 Years
              2 years, 8 months ago

              There were goals in this game, I had foreseen, who would score and assist them was an entirely different matter, had Andreas v Everton last week as I predicted Fulham to win strongly and they did, but 3 goals, no Perreira involvement, thought I'd pick someone more exciting and I could cheer for.

            6. djman102
              • 16 Years
              2 years, 8 months ago

              Chose him for FH and played over Eze; looking good so far.

              Leno over Johnstone not looking as good though.

          4. Bishopool
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Andreas 3 bonus hopefully?

            Now Kane goals and Mings CS would be nice differential point for us no-FH guys!

          5. Superflymonk
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Just out of curiosity, why did some people think Jota would be benched for this gw?

            1. GENERATION X
              • 12 Years
              2 years, 8 months ago

              Coming back from long layoff and game midweek

            2. Mirror Man
                2 years, 8 months ago

                90% of FPL managers are afraid of everything.

                  • 12 Years
                  2 years, 8 months ago

                  I captained him, because I am brave. And hairsuite!

                  1. Mirror Man
                      2 years, 8 months ago

                      Have you ever farted in your helm and put it back on really quickly for a laugh?

                        2 years, 8 months ago

                        Mine great helm has many holed vents around the nasal area to avert this very thing! Hijinks and farts always end in tears.

                  • 15 Years
                  2 years, 8 months ago

                  Just rotational reasons, as he's not always a starter

                  1. Ruinenlust
                    • 8 Years
                    2 years, 8 months ago

                    He’s been a nailed starter since he came bck from injury

                    1. Superflymonk
                      • 11 Years
                      2 years, 8 months ago

                      That's what I thought, he started even when Salah was benched

                3. Ruinenlust
                  • 8 Years
                  2 years, 8 months ago

                  They’re scared of not owning him so they tried to convince themselves that he wouldn’t start

                4. ZeBestee
                  • 11 Years
                  2 years, 8 months ago

                  Jota was superb in the previous game, anyone who thought he will.be benched without any valid reason doesn't know ball.

                      So close

                    Brentford v Villa 0-0? No chance.

                    Villa have scored in every game under Emery.

                3. Prinzhorn
                  • 4 Years

                  I’ll await the Pool game but heavily considering Kane+Saka to Watkins+Salah for a hit. Makes sense no?

                    I even meant Salah and Jota

                      Just a 1 and a 0 stuck together innit. Not that mental.

                      Can’t say that people weren’t recommending him (and Wilson /Willian). Still brave pick given other options

                      Didn't Klopp mention something about him not being ready for a start yet?

                        Yeah he's a potential for the future player

                      Was always a risk after Liverpool ticking last match

                      2 years, 8 months ago

                      Still good chance he scores off the bench

                      2 years, 8 months ago

                      Same, but was always a possibility, hooing for decent 20+ sub mins later or a no show

                        Cheers fellas, that’s cheered me up. Hoping he gets 30 and a goal like last time out. Have a great weekend…

                    Wow, Andreas in for Madisson on FH, so flukey!

                    I dont even remember picking him TBH.

                  6. Scapegoat Salah
                    • 9 Years

                    Andreas The Angel winning goal BPS 😎

                    2 years, 8 months ago

                    Andreas first on my bench, main rival just flying this year, can’t seem to catch him no matter what I do.

                    Andreas in his starting 11, mart captain, Saka & white so far, need a big showing from Salah!

                  8. ZeBestee
                    • 11 Years
                    2 years, 8 months ago

                    So everyone captained Salah. It means there is no difference whether owning and captaining.

                    Only positive thing is I have Pool assets going forward as I don't FH.

                      2 years, 8 months ago

                      Salah (C) points will gain you more rank than just owning Saka/Martinelli - who everyone else also had.

                      So you want Salah to do as well as he can.

                        Think Wilson nicks it

                      People really thought Jota would be benched after scoring 2 goals and an assist in the last game LOL

                      Brennan Johnson being dropped seems an odd choice.

                        Delighted Maddison is out. Ruined my team for weeks until finally getting rid, was surprised to see so many advocating him on a free hit.

                        That said, I'm sure Vardy scores against Wolves to ruin my weekend.

                          He's on my FH team, on the bench anyway, and probably won't need to come in.

                          I get the pleasure of him leaving my team after this FH this final one time :mrgreen:

                          Nothing wrong with him as an option, form is temporary he is too good a player to keep blanking.

                              Tbf 10 is a "haul"
                              9 is a "return"

                        How essential do people think TAA is for double 34?

                        My plan was Kane + Saka + Chilwell ----------------> Isak + Salah + TAA (-4) but I have been priced out by recent changes (0.1m) so would have to be a -8. Not sure its worth it at that point.

                          2 years, 8 months ago

                          He'll be a relative differential imo - unless you're on wildcard now, everyone will be scrambling to get Salah and Rashford back
