Gameweek 28 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues on Sunday, with four matches taking place.

Three of those fixtures get underway at 2pm GMT:

TEAM NEWS

Michael Carrick makes just one alteration from the 1-0 win against Everton on Monday.

After scoring three goals off the bench in the last four Gameweeks, Benjamin Sesko is named in the starting XI. Amad Diallo consequently drops out.

There are three changes from Crystal Palace’s last Premier League XI: Maxence Laxcroix, Daichi Kamada and Brennan Johnson in for the benched Chadi Riad, Will Hughes and Yeremy Pino.

At Craven Cottage, Marco Silva makes two changes, with Issa Diop and Oscar Bobb coming in for Joachim Andersen and Kevin.

Andersen misses out due to illness.

As for Tottenham Hotspur, Pedro Porro and Dominic Solanke both start. They replace Djed Spence, who is not in the matchday squad, and Pape Sarr, who is named among the substitutes.

On the south coast, Brighton and Hove Albion are unchanged from their 2-0 win over Brentford last week.

There is just one change for the visitors compared to Gameweek 27.

Matz Sels returns in between the sticks in place of Stefan Ortega.

    Could it BE more perfect. Bruno(c) goal, Cunha assist, Lacroix red 😎

    Bruno misses were with previous delays

    He's practiced it

    Goal

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      He made the keeper wait

      Took control of the time frame

  3. el polako
    • 8 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Best league in the world, with the most inept VAR people.
    Take ages for simple calls.

  4. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    That’s an extremely harsh decision. By letter of the law it’s probably correct but even as a Utd fan, that would be a tough one to swallow

  5. Snoop Udogie Dogg
    • 5 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    who got the red?

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Crocs

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years

    Points for everyone. Get in

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      The only points I ever get

  7. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Cunha diving rat

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      More reason to go down than Gabriel against Spurs.

      1. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        Yes that was lucky

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Ah stop

      1. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        “Yayy Bruno scored from a dirty penalty points for meee wooo”

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          28 days, 11 hours ago

          Just happy as a fan. I don’t have him C so does more damage than good from an fpl pov.

          1. Qaiss
            • 10 Years
            28 days, 11 hours ago

            Ah so you’re biased. I guess if you’d travelled up there like some away fans did and spent well over £100 for a referee to do that, you’d be annoyed too

        2. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          28 days, 11 hours ago

          Very childish comment though

    3. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Clear foul

      1. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        28 days, 10 hours ago

        You watch FPL, not football, lol

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          28 days, 10 hours ago

          There is no question whether there is a foul, the sending off was harsh

  8. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Yes c bruno first time all season!!

  9. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Ref from Manchester giving Manchester Utd pen and our player a red for that. What a surprise.

    1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      corrupt a f. how'd you think Leicester won it?

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        With solid players and a decent manager in a great season for them

        1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
          • 5 Years
          28 days, 11 hours ago

          and pro wrestling for every corner

          1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
            • 5 Years
            28 days, 11 hours ago

            and PDAs

            1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
              • 5 Years
              28 days, 11 hours ago

              PEDs

    2. JohnnyB10
      • 1 Year
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      This

    3. F4L
      • 11 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      wasnt long ago they were reworking the var rulings to give united a free kick against fulham that they should never have got (and subsequently scored from)

      its always one rule for the top 6, another for the rest

      1. Hughes Your Daddy
        • 13 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        Agreed. Like first game of season that Eze pen ruled out for Guéhi being within 1 meter of Chelsea wall. A rule that has not been repeated rest of this season.

        1. Hughes Your Daddy
          • 13 Years
          28 days, 11 hours ago

          #freekick#

        2. F4L
          • 11 Years
          28 days, 11 hours ago

          yup.

          never heard the 5cm grace ruling for offsides again since wirtz's at fulham as well. its so just predictable

  10. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Can’t legitimately celebrate those Bruno points.

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Points for everyone.

      1. jacob1989
        • 4 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        Not everyone c him

        1. el polako
          • 8 Years
          28 days, 11 hours ago

          Yeah he was vice for all Haaland cappers….

      2. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        I feel dirty taking them. That was a dive Raheem Sterling would’ve been proud of.

    2. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Yep, same 🙁

    3. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      I've jumped up around 100k so it's not entirely meaningless

  11. Bigbars
    • 15 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Who thinks the ref is trying to make up for his FA cup error and non-assignment...

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Nobody

  12. g40steve

    Strand off at 58

  13. Babit1967

    Bruno!!!

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years

      Another? Or carrier pigeon?

    2. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Keep up

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years

      Dial up?

  14. Pompel
    • 12 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    BrunoF effective ownership this GW, including vice captainers? Guess over 100 ?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      I think Live FPL is calculating VC and it still helps

      At the margin

      So below 100% EO

      1. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        As mentioned by many - impossible to make up ground currently.

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          28 days, 10 hours ago

          It's completely and tight

          Too many chips

          Non chip week you've got to nail your captain

  15. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Marginal gain as a Bruno non capper

    +0.56 points for rank per 3 points achieved

    The van hecke 1 point is almost worth double that

    EO

  16. F4L

      As he should.

  17. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Crazy there are still active managers who don't own Wilson!

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      I was trying to find the next Wilson. Unfortunately, I didn't. Now can't catch up to people buying the same players as them.

    2. Feanor
      • 16 Years

      I had to keep Rogers like a muppet

  18. nanxun
    • 4 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Both the Robot and Andersen unexpectedly absent this week.

    Fortunately, Timber and Alderete are 1 and 2 on my bench. We'll see how the 6:30 fixture goes.

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Robot and Collins absent here.

      Timber and Le Fee to the rescue as Mukiele is injured. Big hope on Timber

      1. nanxun
        • 4 Years
        28 days, 10 hours ago

        Same re: Timber (obv), but a little nail-biting here as I'm on triple ARS def. :-0

  22. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    Did Cunha > Mbeumo as expected Cunha might be dropped if Sesko started, first transfer I’ve got wrong (so far) since Christmas.

  23. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years
    28 days, 11 hours ago

    With the amount of Fruno (VC) I am not sure if I ahould be happy with that goal as an owner?

    1. z13
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        I think his EO is around 105%

      • AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago
