The final action of Gameweek 35 ends at City Ground, where Nottingham Forest host Southampton at 20:00 BST.

It’s a huge game between the bottom two sides, with time running out for both thanks to Everton’s shock 5-1 win at Brighton and Hove Albion. Defeat here would virtually relegate the Saints, so it’ll be a fascinating but nervy battle.

They’ve made three changes from the side which went a goal up at Newcastle United but ultimately lost. Che Adams (£6.0m), Theo Walcott (£4.8m) and Ainsley Maitland-Niles (£4.8m) are in for Moussa Djenepo (£5.0m), Kamaldeen Sulemana (£4.9m) and Lyanco (£4.4m).

Nottingham Forest were also victims of a lead being overturned and there’s a sole alteration to their Brentford line-up, with Ryan Yates (£5.0m) replacing Joe Worrall (£4.2m) to hint at a return to the back-four system.

Brennan Johnson (£5.5m) is deemed fit enough to start.

GAMEWEEK 35 LINE-UPS

Nottingham Forest XI: Navas; Aurier, Felipe, Niakhate, Lodi; Danilo, Mangala, Yates; Gibbs-White; Johnson, Awoniyi

Subs: Hennessey, Worrall, Boly, Toffolo, Kouyate, Freuler, Lingard, Ayew, Surridge

Southampton XI: McCarthy; Maitland-Niles, Bella-Kotchap, Bednarek, Walker-Peters; S Armstrong, Ward-Prowse, Lavia, Alcaraz; Walcott, Adams

Subs: Bazunu, Lyanco, Caleta-Car, Edozie, Sulemana, Elyounoussi, Mara, A Armstrong, Onuachu

        Not sure yet. But I'm happy to have the benching problem. Just feel I need Mitoma now March is injured and wanted Isak/Wilson anyway.

  8. Bubz
    • 12 Years

    Was thinking about who to replace March witj but just playing Trent away to Leicester instead could end up a blessing in disguise tbh

    Wow, why couldnt we get such games yesterday and on Saturday? I only own Mitoma from todays games, and hes on my bench lol. 37 points, another fantastic GW.

    1. Steve Stiffler
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      39 here, glad i never took a -4.

      What a terrible week yeah, may have to punt on some players that are fighting for places in the league

    2. Sun Jihai

      Man Utd were appalling

  23. fantasist

    21 goals today from 3 games. Great entertainment!

    1. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Think there was an entire ACON tournament once with fewer goals than these games today.

  24. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    It's baffling that Arsenal dropped 4 points versus Southampton this season, which is the second most after City. Unbelievable.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      At least they didn't do the double over your club 🙁

  25. Hazz

    One of my mates is a Palace supporter, but also has a huge affinity for a Forest as he studied up in Nottingham and went to many games.

    GW38: CRY vs. NFO

    Might have to watch his one relegate the other!

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      At least Forest can then play his eight favourite teams in the Championship.

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        lol

    2. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Why would he support Palace who is on beach in that game?

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        We're not on the beach

        My cousin went to trent poly in the 90's and i always came up to Nottingham from Sussex Uni to meet her.

        She has no such affinity for Forest.

        Even Mark Sutherns will remember this

        Went to the classic 1991 fa cup game replay but alas lost the 2nd replay. Salako 120th min goal from 45 yards

      2. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Anyway why wouldn't he support his own team. You clearly don't understand. FPL comes a severe 2nd to your own team.

        Forest like Bournemouth at the weekend after survival (if they survive) will lose the game

  26. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Forest win

  27. Gazzpfc
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    3 crazy games today

    5-3
    1-5
    4-3

    1. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Not many FPL returns but still very entertaining and exciting to watch.

    2. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Like three slightly incomplete sets of tennis

  28. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Forest had 4 shots on target today. 4 goals!

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Beaten by Everton who had 5 shots on target 5 goals.

  29. Steve Stiffler
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Would it be alright to just bench March this week as my bench is fairly OK, and just do Jota to Isak? Thanks

    Team would be:

    DDG
    TAA Lindelof Botman Stones
    Mitoma KDB Rashford Salah
    Isak(C) Haaland
    Subs: Iversen Estup March Greenwood

    1. FantasyFootballMad
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Possibly play estup over stones this week for the double

      1. Steve Stiffler
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        You think Brighton keep Newcastle and Arsenal completely quiet this weekend? I see a 4 points total over two games

    2. dansully3
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Considering he's a write off yes I would imagine!

  30. nanxun
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Three games today; 21 goals in total. Avg. of 7 goals per game. Crazy.
