Another Saturday, another later-than-late kick-off as Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers gets underway at 20:00 BST.

TEAM NEWS

It’s easier to compare the Spurs team to last weekend’s XI rather than the much-changed side that Thomas Frank sent out in midweek.

There are two alterations from the Gameweek 5 line-up, both of them notable from a Fantasy perspective.

Pedro Porro drops to the bench, so in comes Djed Spence at right-back.

Further forward, Xavi Simons reclaims his place as Wilson Odobert makes way.

Vitor Pereira, by contrast, has had his head turned by the midweek EFL Cup win over Everton.

There’s only one change from Tuesday’s XI, as Jean-Ricner Bellegarde is replaced by Joao Gomes.

LINE-UPS

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Vicario; Spence, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Bergvall, Palhinha; Simons, Kudus, Richarlison.

Subs: Kinsky, Danso, Tel, Gray, Johnson, Porro, Odobert, Sarr, Scarlett.

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Johnstone; Doherty, H Bueno, Krejci, S Bueno; Munetsi, Andre, J Gomes; Arias, Strand Larsen, Hwang.

Subs: Sa, Moller Wolfe, Agbadou, Arokodare, R Gomes, Toti, Bellegarde, Lopez, Tchatchoua.

    Just in from attending my team's FA Cup 3rd qualifying round fixture having ignored FPL all afternoon until full-time. Delighted to find the Haaland(tc) came off late doors! We won 4-2 and Hampshire stayed up. Good day!

    1. GreennRed

      Congratulations Shirtless.

      Nothing can replicate euphoria of your TC scores twice in last 5 minutes. Sorry you missed it. It was great.

        • 14 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Yeah was caught up in the live game I heard someone say City were 1-1 so all I really knew was Haaland was likely getting the full 90. Amazed to see both strikes were so late! Our main man hit a hatty now on 10 for the season.

  2. Bobby Digital

    Bought both Xavi and Mbeumo on my WC5. Massive failure

    1. Blueface
      • 3 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      I bought in Chalobah and Foden. -2 points total.

      I also bought in Roefs, Senesi and Guehl, but benched them for the 2 above and Petrovic - 21 points wasted

      1. Blueface
        • 3 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        On the upside though, kudos to your username. Razor sharp...those that know, know!

  3. dshv
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    1. Reijenders/Enzo to Saka
    2. Cucurella to Gabriel ?

    (Have calafiori and Gyokeres)

  4. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    VDV keeping a cleanie after selling him would just be prime fpl

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Who did you sell him for?

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Sold VDV and Gundmundsson to Alderete & Senesi

    2. #1 Salah Hater
      • 1 Year
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Considering he's playing the worst team in the league at home it's not exactly an earth shattering turn of events mate.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        No but Esteve scoring 2 own goals for me was!

      2. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Nevermind it’s all cool lol

  5. Blueface
    • 3 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    What's everyone's worst score for points left on the bench? I have 28 this week - my entire first team has 34 (2 players yet to play, 3 Spurs ongoing). FMFPL!

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Not sure, but if it makes you feel any better, my worst bench scores this season is the week I’ve boosted (this week :lol:)

    2. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      This week one got a Rodon cleanie and De Cuyper goal sat there for 14. Bench Boosted 10 points back in GW1!

    3. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      27. GW3 WC. I got 51 points. It feels bad but at least you've decent players you might start next GW. Even if you get tempted to kneeler. Lesson I learned: Josh King, bench him until he gets attacking returns. He's an enabler and 4.5m for a reason.

  6. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    A) Pedro -> Gyökeres
    B) Richarlison, Porro -> Gyökeres, Richards -4
    C) Hold

    Have to do A or B tonight to not get priced out

    Petrovic
    Porro Muñoz Senesi
    Salah Semenyo Enzo Reijnders
    Haaland Pedro Richarlison

    Dubravka KDH Alderete Gudmundsson
    1FT 1.4M

    Pull the trigger? (After tonights games are done)

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      I would not get rid of pedro. B for me

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Cheers. Think Chelsea has been disappointing lately though, and one attacker is enough?

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Not ideal making early moves this GW with midweek European fixtures for the players you're considering

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        And a game tomorrow for Arsenal

      2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        I know, but which one would you prefer, A or B

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          C.

        2. Tonyawesome69
          • 7 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Probably hold

    3. Pornchef
      • 2 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      A

  7. Sun God Nika
    • 5 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    Please score spurs and leave porro on bench

  8. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    My 1 week punt on Richarlison is backfiring atm

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      He's looked ok, might get a goal

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Been close a couple of times

  9. FPL Sanky
    • 2 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    Have exact money to do Van de Ven to Gabriel. Should I do it now before Gabriel price rise?

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Wouldn't sell Van de Ven. Other sell options?

      1. FPL Sanky
        • 2 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        My other defenders are Richards, Anderson, Virgil and Senesi....to afford Gabriel, I can only sell VdV as I have gained some value on him

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          I'd sell

          1. FPL Sanky
            • 2 Years
            6 months, 18 days ago

            Cheers

          2. GreennRed
            • 14 Years
            6 months, 18 days ago

            Sorry wrong text! You can sell any of them. Pool not keeping many CS but your backs are really good as they are. I have VdV, Senesi, Andersen, Guehi. Can see your point there now, Spurs might't keep their CS threat .

  10. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    Doing Cucurella ➡ Gabriel giving me -

    Raya
    Gabriel - Cash - Dorgu
    Salah - Semenyo - Reijnders - KDH
    Haaland - Gyokeres - Pedro

    Dubravka - King - Gudmundsson - Reinildo

    Thoughts? 🙂

    1. Salalalalah
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Defense is a mess, probably because of Salah. Already have 1 arsenal in back, maybe upgrade Cash or Dorgu

  11. Stranger Mings
    • 5 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

      1. The Reptile

        Sels dropping tonight though

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          WYou've other players

          1. GreennRed
            • 14 Years
            6 months, 18 days ago

            Would the price change later in week mean you have to make two transfers? Will be more European games than two weeks ago so if another of your players gets injured midweek they might be a priority.

    2. Khalico

      Tough one. If I’m getting Gyokeres in for Wood I’d want to go tonight before Gyokeres goes up

    Porro on the bench pain eased. 😉

    1. Sun God Nika
      • 5 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Means he’ll come on though 🙁

      1. Mom, Butters just gave me a…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years

  25. RICICLE

  26. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

  27. el polako
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    Started Romero, benched Alderete.
    Right decision, freaking unlucky.
    FPL…

  28. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    Thomas Frank looking like a Spurs manager today

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      You can take Ange out of Spurs but you can’t take Spursy out of Spurs.

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Took only the first quarter for him to fully acclimatize to Spurs' atmosphere

  29. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    6 months, 18 days ago

    How reasonable or not is to stick with this one more week just doing Sanchez to Raya? Then WC over IB.

    (Raya)
    Porro/Munoz/Dorgu
    Bruno/Foden/Semenyo/Kudus/Reijnders
    Haaland/Pedro

    Dubravka/Gudmundsson/Kroupi/Neco

  30. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Same, especially after selling him for a hit this week

    2. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      VdV being one of the main threats to my OR

    3. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Need a VDV goal to save the point, Kudus assist hopefully.

    4. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Wouldn't get carried away with EO in week 6. Give it another 20 weeks at least.
