With no lunchtime kick-off, Gameweek 33 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) gets underway with four matches at 3pm BST.

Manchester City begin their Double Gameweek 33 with a trip to unchanged Everton.

Pep Guardiola makes four alterations, one of which is enforced as the injured Ederson makes way for Stefan Ortega.

Matheus Nunes, Bernardo Silva and Savinho also get recalls, with Rico Lewis, James McAtee and Mateo Kovacic dropping out.

Phil Foden and Manuel Akanji are both on the bench after recovering from injury.

Crystal Palace, another side who ‘double’ in Gameweek 33, have largely named the same team that started the 5-0 defeat at Newcastle United on Wednesday.

Adam Wharton for Jefferson Lerma is the only alteration.

Bournemouth’s Andoni Iraola welcomes back Justin Kluivert from injury and recalls Illia Zabarnyi, with Marcos Senesi and Lewis Cook the men replaced.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka is absent from the West Ham United squad today, while Oliver Scarles and Konstantinos Mavropanos drop to the bench.

Niclas Fullkrug, Vladimir Coufal and Emerson Palmieri all start for the Hammers.

Flynn Downes for Cameron Archer is Southampton’s only alteration.

Finally, at Brentford, Michael Kayode gets his full Premier League debut at Kristoffer Ajer‘s expense.

Kaoru Mitoma is only fit enough for substitute duty for Brighton and Hove Albion, who recall Jan Paul van Hecke and Mats Wieffer for Simon Adingra and Yasin Ayari.

  11. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years

    Mbuemo again

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      12 months, 4 hours ago

      18 goals this season

      Deflection?

      Him and Wissa apparently are the only 2 to get more than 15 goals for 1 team so far this season

  15. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    Rank killer

  16. djman102
    • 16 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    Bowen on FH! One of my few good decisions this season

  17. Ninja Škrtel
    • 12 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    MBUEMOOOOOO GET INNNNN

  18. No Luck
    • 14 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

      12 months, 4 hours ago

      Immediately gets a YC

  19. JBG
    • 7 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    I don't think I've ever gotten anything positive from owning Mateta.

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      12 months, 4 hours ago

      Also Wissa who I took out last GW, is outscoring Mateta, despite Mateta having 4 fixtures in 2 GWs. Hakuna Mafrauda.

  20. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    Mbeumo and Bowen are season saviours!

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      12 months, 4 hours ago

      Saviour that

  21. DeSelby
    • 3 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    This ref at Selhurst Park should be employed in a different profession.
    He's so bad now he's calling fouls on players who are getting fouled and giving fouls to players who are committing the fouls.
    Come on.

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      12 months, 4 hours ago

      Yep, he has totally lost control of this game. One of the worst ref performances ever.

  22. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    Really glad I used fh this week.

  23. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    DGWs are always over hyped

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      12 months, 4 hours ago

      That's what I was banking on last week, but Newcastle had other ideas.

      1. JBG
        • 7 Years
        12 months, 4 hours ago

        Murphy*

  24. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    I guess FH33 is no where near Mbeumo

  25. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    Damn Mbeumo

  26. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    C'mon Josko get a goal

  27. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    Just stop it Mbuemo

  28. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    12 months, 4 hours ago

    Early thoughts on Newcastle treble for fh34. Treble attack or 2 attack and one defence ?

    I am thinking isak Murphy and Barnes. Cheers
