We’ve got a bonus Premier League match this evening in the super-late 8pm BST slot.

Brentford v Chelsea rounds off the day’s action.

TEAM NEWS

The Bees have made two changes for this evening’s game, one enforced as Mikkel Damsgaard misses out due to illness.

Dango Ouattara drops to the bench, too, as Keith Andrews channels the spirit of his predecessor by moving to – we think – a 5-3-2 against a big-six club.

Ethan Pinnock and Mathias Jensen come in.

As for Chelsea, Enzo Maresca has made four alterations.

Wesley Fofana and Jorrel Hato are surprise starters at the back, with Malo Gusto and Marc Cucurella dropping to the bench.

Jamie Gittens comes in for the absent Estevao out wide, meanwhile.

And with Cole Palmer only deemed fit enough for the bench, Facundo Buonanotte is given the nod to replace the injured Liam Delap.

Alejandro Garnacho is among the substitutes.

LINE-UPS

Brentford XI: Kelleher, Kayode, Collins, Pinnock, van den Berg, Yarmoliuk, Henderson, Jensen, Lewis-Potter, Schade, Thiago

Subs: Valdimarsson, Hickey, Henry, Ajer, Janelt, Onyeka, Carvalho, Outtara, Nelson.

Chelsea XI: Sanchez, Chalobah, Adarabioyo, Fofana, Hato, Caicedo, Fernandez, Neto, Buonanotte, Gittens, Joao Pedro

Subs: Jorgensen, James, Gusto, Cucurella, Acheampong, Santos, George, Palmer, Garnacho.

      His price was meant to drop on friday massively but somehow still did not drop. That was the only reason I took him out. Annoyed.

    Sold Palmer this week ofc. I needed to sell him to afford Semenyo so don't really regret it but that's a bit painful

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 months, 16 days ago

      I need to find an alternative way to Semenyo now

    Really feel like I need to get Semenyo in, especially since my main rival has him. I still have my wildcard but don't want to use it yet so could always get him in then, but how much is he likely to continue to rise.

    To get him in, I could do either:

    A) Munoz>Guehi, Sarr>Semenyo (-4)
    B) KDH>King, Diouf>Alderete, Sarr>Semenyo (-8)
    C) Hold off a few weeks and bring in on wildcard.

    Let me know thoughts ASAP please as have the exact funds for A and B so would have to do tonight before the rise. Thanks!

      Damn I’d have highest score of the week so far had I gone for VDV over Diouf

    Selling Palmer for a -4 not my brightest move!
