Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea is our next Premier League match of the day, a fixture that the Blues tend to perform well in.

In fact, penalty shootouts aside, Chelsea have avoided defeat in 16 of their last 17 meetings with the Lilywhites.

Kick-off in this latest contest is at 17:30 BST.

Compared to last weekend’s 3-0 win over Everton, Thomas Frank has made two changes to his starting XI.

    thats a red every day of the week

  3. FantasyTony

    7 months, 1 day ago

    looks a red to me

    1. tutankamun
      • 16 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      No chance

  4. Pornchef

    How did Sarr look today

    Have two arsenal defencders

    Weighing up 3 or rejinders to...

    A. Rice
    B. Sarr
    C. 6.8m someone else?

    D. Go triple arsenal defence using two transfers downgrading rejinders and removing Sensei for Timber

    1. Ignasi M
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Poor. Not involved that much. Think he was tired from the game mid week.

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Good god what is it with people on here and Sarr, he’s shocking

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        But but xGI

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      A

    4. Ignasi M
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Yeah, I'm thinking Rice v Saka....Rice looks to be the better pick, especially on form. Saka just not as effective in the league. Much better in the Champs league .

    5. Ignasi M
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      or...go triple Arsenal defence. Tough. Calafiori is always an injury/load risk hence why he always subbed off.

  5. Mom, Butters just gave me a…

    Might be an early bonfire night at Anfield tonight.

    Either lots of goals or Slot could be fired.

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Doubt he’ll be fired regardless

    2. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      He is not getting fired complete over reaction. He knows what he is doing the team out today is the best he can put out right now.

  6. WVA
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    FFS, week from hell, all attackers blanking and started Enzo over Chalobah

    1. Pornchef
      • 2 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Enzo might score

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        No he won’t and just got booked

  7. Nightcrawler
    • 7 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    red cards must be turned off for this match

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      thats was considerably worse than bentancur imo, nearly caught him flush on the knee, that ruins careers. dogshite tackle, enzo knew what he was doing

  8. Punned It
    • 1 Year
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Please calm down, Chelsea! Got Chalobah on 7 points, don't need someone to get a RC and ruin everything.

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Why would you start him away at Spurs who have only failed to score once and that was a miracle

      1. Punned It
        • 1 Year
        7 months, 1 day ago

        Cause he has potential for DC and goals. And he seems to be doing quite alright, don't you know.

        1. WVA
          • 9 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          Hasnt had either for over a month, I started Gab Tim Guehi over him

          1. Punned It
            • 1 Year
            7 months, 1 day ago

            There you go, played him, Gab, Lacroix. No second Arsenal def.

  9. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    So excited to sell Kudus

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Who you aiming for as replacement?

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        Probably someone else who doesn't score points.

      2. tutankamun
        • 16 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        Rice?

    2. JBG
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      I was going to sell him... but sold Reindeers instead, was busy with something else while doing transfers, so didn't notice which player I took out.

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

    Porro 2 points save

  11. EWH2020
    • 12 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Is Gusto nailed?

  12. EWH2020
    • 12 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Bruno and Mbuemo essential against this spurs team

  13. JBG
    • 8 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Hahah YC now, such a fraud

  14. tutankamun
    • 16 Years

    Kudus TC

    1. tutankamun
      • 16 Years

      *Yc

  15. Nightcrawler
    • 7 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    what an absolute shocker of a GW despite only 2 blanks

    38 with vvd, foden, haaland, semenyo to go huge red on the way

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      32 here, all attackers blanking again so far,

  16. FantasyClub
    • 5 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Chalobah on my bench man SMH
    Would really like Slurs to score now

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Same

  17. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Vicario should be on 7 saves not 6

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      There we go 😎

  18. Old Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    If this match stays the same it will be a real hammer blow for those who don't have those best owned Chelsea players. Come on Bentacur, time for a brace.

    1. Nightcrawler
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      hardly a hammer blow when nobody has double digit scores

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      He’s been subbed

  19. Mom, Butters just gave me a…

    Snoop Spence

  20. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    VdV has had a stinker

  21. WVA
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    I own two Chelsea players, only those two have been booked, coincidence or just bad luck again?

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Well one of those players is a huge knt, I'll let you figure out who I'm thinkikg about.

  22. The Reptile
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    I don't get how Spurs always lose the Chelsea ‐ that's all I've seen for decades

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Not only are they losing today, have they even tested the backline and goalie at all?

      1. The Reptile
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        I know ‐ I don't really care as I'm a Gooner but was hoping for a parting gift from Kudus - I also stupidly sold R James to get funds ready for Booomo transfer next week (arghhh)

    2. Nightcrawler
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      i remember tottenham thrashing chelsea the season they won the league under mourinho again. people benching kane for his haul just cuz he was cheap ws funny

  23. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Neto is a worm

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

      A bit harsh

  24. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    A) Timber -> Gabriel 1FT
    B) Other defender + midfielder -> Gabriel + XXX -4?

    Petrovic Dubravka
    Timber Muñoz Senesi Richards Alderete
    Saka Bruno Mbeumo Semenyo Enzo
    Haaland Mateta Obi

    0.8 1FT

  25. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Kudus’ corners have been gash

  26. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Will be selling Kudus so expect a brace against United next time out.

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Will be on my bench, will probably haul yeah.

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Don’t think Kudus has ever scored a brace in his life

  27. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Worst week of the season so far for me

    Sold Gyokeres and Reijnders for Thiago and Mbeumo who both blanked

    Benched Pedro and started Porto and Kudus

    1. Feanor
      • 16 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      But on the bright side I have a spare Arsenal spot so now I can keep Pedro and sell Kudus for Rice.

    2. keefy59
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      You've got a good overall rank & past season history
      But why did you sell Gyokeres ahead of Burnley away

      1. Feanor
        • 16 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        Wanted Mbeumo in for Reijnders and think there are better 3rd Arsenal players

  28. WVA
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Sarr is getting benched next week and sold in 12.

    Pope
    Gab Tim Chal Guehi
    Saka Sem Enzo
    Haaland Wolt Bowen
    Dub Sarr Sen King

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      I wouldn’t bench Sarr next week

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        I 100% would, benched him last week and should have benched this week for Chalobah (first on my bench) he’s genuinely an awful FPL asset

  29. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 13 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    The no Caicedo only Enzo club must be realising the error of their ways now.

    1. Punned It
      • 1 Year
      7 months, 1 day ago

      🙁 Thought he wouldn't keep it up.

  30. JBG
    • 8 Years
    7 months, 1 day ago

    Hahahah Gittens

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 1 day ago

      Would've been Peder assist
