Arsenal entertain Brighton and Hove Albion at the Emirates Stadium in the final Premier League match of the day.

Kick-off is at 16:30 BST.

Mikel Arteta is forced to make one change from Gameweek 35, as Kieran Tierney replaces the injured Oleksandr Zinchenko.

That means Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus continue up front, with Leandro Trossard named among the substitutes again.

As for Brighton, Roberto De Zerbi makes four alterations in response to the 5-1 loss against Everton.

Levi Colwill, Billy Gilmour, Julio Enciso and Evan Ferguson come in for Adam Webster, Facundo Buonanotte, Deniz Undav and Danny Welbeck.

The line-up suggests Enciso will start on the right in place of Solly March, with Alexis Mac Allister in a more advanced role in behind Ferguson.

GAMEWEEK 36 LINE-UPS

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale, White, Kiwior, Gabriel, Tierney, Jorginho, Odegaard, Xhaka, Saka, Martinelli, Jesus

Subs: Turner, Holding, Walters, Vieira, Smith Rowe, Partey, Nketiah, Trossard, Nelson

    The real question is ... anybody benching Estupinan out there?

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      My main ML rival. Which, I suppose, makes us even - she'd also benched Alvarez when he hauled three weeks back and I've benched Ode with double-digit hauls twice running.

    2. fusen
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Loads of people

    3. Jack Burton
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Yep me having a cracking season so can't complain to much. But can't lie this hurts ha ha

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

      Yep. I did for Shaw and it seemed like a somewhat sensible move at the time. Punished in such a ridiculously harsh and unexpected way (at least Shaw got a CS and bonus)

    5. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I did but thankfully my ML rival doesn’t even have him - couldn’t decide between him, Trippier, Shaw and Trent.

    6. Scalper
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I did. But got extremely lucky as I played Dalot ahead of him and fortunately he didn’t come off the bench.

    7. gart888
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I was thinking of it before the Rashford injury news.

    8. LE CHARO
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I did... but he'll sub on for Rashford.

    9. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Yes, but he is first on my bench and will sub on for Rash. Was kicking myself yesterday for putting him first o nay bench over Shaw

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

      13% of his owners benched him
      Ends up as 6% with autosubs though

    11. Ser Davos
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I did

      For Rashford. First bit of BW of the season

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

      Rival getting Estup and Shaw off the bench for Rash and KDB. >:(

    13. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      as well as Gundogan?

      Wish I had then & Eze this week

  2. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Barely chucked Estu over the 3 BAPs threshold. Only 9 BAPs for the goal?

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I think that's right it favours miss and then forwards even more, the 6 points is more than enough.

    2. gart888
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Estu gets a goal and an assist and the game thinks he played as well as Shaw when he gets no attacking returns.

  3. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Estupinian saving my horrible GW. C trippier, dalot benched, grealish 1 point. Martinelli and alvarez blanks

  4. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Spursy from arsenal

  5. fusen
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    The amount of luck involved in this game makes it such a silly game to get too upset about

    1. alsybach
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Crap week was it? I’m in the top 900 don’t you worry about that!!

      1. fusen
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        I got a decent amount of luck until this game.

        Then marti went off, saka blanked and my bench player Estu hauled.

        So the good luck and bad luck all played its own part.

        That's why it's such a silly game to get too overworked about. You throw a dice and hope the results go your way.

  6. TanN
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Should've captained Estu!

    I went Isak...

    1. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      You would have never captained him in a million game weeks, lol.

  7. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Arsenal won't be joining the 90pts per season club

  8. Total Slotball
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Estupinan putting in the best Left back performance in Europe this season. Good timing

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Some motor on that guy. Up and down all game, even in the end there.

  9. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    80 pts with 8 to go including Wilson cap, been a pretty sh**ty season but been rocketing up the last couple of gws....

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      brilliant - hope you get over the 150

  10. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Estupinan...what a guy!

  11. Free Hat
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Expected a lot of things of this game,
    But so many estu points after that 1half is a miracle

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

    Own up who benched Pervis, as the advice was to bench him on here earlier this week?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I benched him, but I played Rashford.

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

        Sweet

        1. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Got a deep bench. Got VVD coming on for Stones 😛

    2. Heiro
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Benched him for Jota. Absolutely livid

    3. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      But played Botman and benched Shaw so still sweet and sour

    4. Sif
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Benched until the Rashford news.
      Expected anything from -2 to 4

  13. The Final Boss
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    If there was no Rash injury ,these estu points would have even more sweeter, now everybody will get these jam points..

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Nothing jammy about a strong bench.

      1. The Final Boss
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Majority of those who has rash estu taa would have benched estu.. So it's still jammy mate..

  14. Tomerick
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Estupinan doing his best to console me over the Eze benching

  15. Dat Guy Welbz
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    🙂

  16. FPL Pillars
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Estu, what a guy!!!

  17. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Well, that’s officially ended my season.

    Anyone else? 🙂

    1. Hooky
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Arsenal

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Hahaha!

    2. PompeyUpNorth!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Nope. It’s reignited mine. 67 with 10 to play.. well happy with that..

  18. Heiro
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Glad I went with gut and benched him thinking he's gonna concede in both games. Incredible

    1. fusen
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      It was the most likely scenario.

      This haul is a complete fluke

  19. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Great points haul so far, Estu and Eze the standouts for sure.

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      congrats

  20. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    If you used FT to get Mac instead of Wilson even that Estu haul ain’t making me happy:D

  21. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    On 68 with 8 to play...wasn't expecting that earlier today.

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      67 with 7 left.

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      35. 4 left. I should be on less than 30 too. Those Ederson points shouldn't count.

      Having a gameweek this bad at this stage of the season is such a kick in the nuts.

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

      Sweet

    4. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      omg

      massive congrats & hope your dwg score

  22. BeaversWithAttitude
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Hope the Seagulls muscle their way into the top five. Sorry, Liverpool!

    14 points down on passing this up

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

      The Iceman did say!

      1. DannyDrinkVodka
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        He sure did, I should have just ignored the 30 pages of comments that recommended benching Estu

  24. Ser Davos
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    So March to Mac / Eze

    Rashford to Gundo

    2 FTs - any alternatives/ideas?

    1. Scoop77
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Is buying Gundo and Eze chasing points which have already been earned? If you think they’ll maintain form?

  25. Dat Guy Welbz
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    What a day. Only things that could make my day better would be a madri and a shaag.

  26. Crouching Tiger
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Wilson(c) saved my gameweek, not having Estupinan is painful at the moment. Especially with Mitoma and Mac Allister blanking.

    1. Crouching Tiger
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Sitting on 59, very average, that is. Green arrow by 2 points.

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

    I wonder if Salah or Trent fancy a rest next match 🙁

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Nope

    2. JOELIO8701
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I think trent scores a brace and an assist tomorrow based on his underlying numbers but I’m not sure about the clean sheet

  28. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Holding on to Saka and Marti for so long was such a big mistake...

  29. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Highest rank of the season (still just outside 400K after subs, but close) with Salah and six doublers (including Wil(s)on) still to go. Just shows either how strong this game has become or how picking an early template with surgical differentials is crucial. This will be my first ever season with at least four and possibly as many as six 100-point weeks and one of my lowest-ever ORs.

    1. Crouching Tiger
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Word. It is difficult these days, I still had over a million rank come GW22, but I've finally climbed to around 100-150k rank.

  30. MIGHTY JOE

    Estu. Wow. All with it now!!
