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.

    Triple Man City on FH is sad. Cant score against Everton, my god.

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 4 hours ago

      To be fair away at Goodison is not easy

  5. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 4 hours ago

    De Brine not on it at all

  6. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 4 hours ago

    Bowen no-show. Trashford on the bench. The BB keeps on giving.

    Nice one JP see ya

    1. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 4 hours ago

      How could you possibly still have him?

      1. brianutd-why always we? 20
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 4 hours ago

        Don’t have him I’m glad he’s got minus points

    2. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 4 hours ago

      Could very well end 5-1

  9. Pep's Money Laundry
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 4 hours ago

    Owned Mbeumo and Wissa majority of season, my gut told wildcarding them out in gw31 would backfire. And it has

    1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 4 hours ago

      Same here. Chips are traps. I have to consider a more balanced WC strategy next season with 50-50 DGWers and form players/season keepers.

  10. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 4 hours ago

    Problem with Mbeumo is he hauls when everyone has him!

  11. BIGREDDOG
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 4 hours ago

    LOL What did JP do? Sometimes you have to just laugh

    1. brianutd-why always we? 20
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 4 hours ago

      The usual swipe

    2. DeSelby
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 4 hours ago

      JP lashed out at Collins.
      Of course Collins was persistently fouling JP and would not let go of him but I guess that's okay to do.

      1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
        • 16 Years
        1 year, 4 hours ago

        It's for the ref to deal with that.

      1. TheBiffas
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 3 hours ago

        That inevitable 90 +4 bust is going to hurt

  30. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 4 hours ago

    Palmer probably finally does something now

    1. Bleh
