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.

    Oh well, it was worth a shot caotaining Thiago over Bruno, but ultimately tve wrong decision.

      3 months, 12 days ago

      I started Dalot and Rogers over KDH and Palmer…

      Can’t get them all right

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        3 months, 12 days ago

        Palmer on your bench??

        1. Feanor
          • 16 Years
          3 months, 12 days ago

          Yeah

          yeah

    3. Tic Tacs
      • 6 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      I did the same, can’t be different in FPL it never pays off

    4. JohnnyB10
      • 1 Year
      3 months, 12 days ago

      It was a good punt though

    Haaland (c) Bruno (vc)

    I love jam 😀

    1. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      first sub?

    2. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Same, plus Wilson off the bench 😆

      1. Feanor
        • 16 Years
        3 months, 12 days ago

        Wow, hard to bench Wilson this week

        1. Slartibartfast
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 months, 12 days ago

          Yes, probably a bad move. It was between Ol' Reliable (Anderson) and Wilson.

    3. JohnnyB10
      • 1 Year
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Nice!

    4. NABIL - FPL otai

        Winner

  6. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Every time there’s a chance to capitalise on backing against a Haaland captaincy, it fails.

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Even when Haaland doesn’t play!

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 months, 12 days ago

        Especially that

        With the VCs

  7. JohnnyB10
    • 1 Year
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Captained Bruno, brought VVD, Dango and Wilson ( 3 FT) for Clyne, Wirtz and Rice, got 7p from Bowen, not bad!

  8. gibson1314
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Anyone else gonna end up with 10 players this game week? Now got 5 players flagged and no wildcard left.

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Which means I will probably beat you then 😆

    2. gibson1314
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Tbf I'm on 66 pts with 3 Arsenal to go.

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 months, 12 days ago

        You're probably beating them tbf

  9. Tic Tacs
    • 6 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Captaincy on Bruno all week then overthought it as always, just need to do the obvious in FPL

    1. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      don't leave us hanging! Eki Cap?

      1. Tic Tacs
        • 6 Years
        3 months, 12 days ago

        Haaland and Thiago as vc

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

  10. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Cunha golazo needed!

  11. FOREST FOREVER 2
    • 1 Year
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Come onForest. Even a point can be precious.

    1. GREEN JUMPERS
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Come On You Reds!

  12. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years

    Side note: need Windies to bowl like never before now...

  13. Tic Tacs
    • 6 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Another big red arrow, give up

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      It's hard

      They've loaded too many chips into the game

      If you are not using one it's tricky

      There's a whole load of teams just playing weekly games with chips too for cash prizes

  14. F4L
    • 11 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    wilson getting subbed off with a muscle injury looking issue 😐 maybe just precaution

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      More uncertainty for mid week

  15. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Now I understand why people chose Wilson over Dango. He gets more points and don't like big chances. More points is better than more big chances.

    1. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Less work and more money is better than more work and less money.

      1. BobbyDoesNotLook
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 months, 12 days ago

        Yep I need to learn that off-FPL as well.

  16. faux_C
    • 13 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Is Anderson injured? Massive jam for me - getting KDH off the bench.

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      just illness

    2. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Would've call it massive

  17. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Mbuemo wants points

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Normally gets them tbf

  18. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Bruno on 13 points

    Net gain + 2.42

    Non captain

    1. faux_C
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      VC jam for me. I'm having a full jam week.

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

  20. nanxun
    • 4 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    this time of the grueling season, strong bench is key

    first gw that I'll have 0 pts on my bench

    1. nanxun
      • 4 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      GW1-28, total of 215 pts on my bench = 7.7 per week 🙁

  21. g40steve

    Sesko off

    1. Jet5605
      • 11 Years

      Lovely for Cunha

  22. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Did something happen to Wilson? Was planning to get him this week

    1. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Lost at sea

    2. Ignasi M
      • 8 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

  23. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Switched VC from Bruno to Thiago on deadline day. Season over.

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Thiagos form was woeful

      1. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        3 months, 12 days ago

        Had a better fixture, but didn't honestly think we'd be needing the VC due to no Haaland news whatsoever. Oh well.

    2. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

  24. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Won't be surprised if Wilson gets a goal while sitting on the bench ...his owners deserve some luck.

  25. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

  27. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    How has Anderson been? More shots, playing higher or the usual position?

  28. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    3 months, 12 days ago

    Did enzo to rayan
    Out of him Wilson ,dango ,who have all returned! My bad

    Just save?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      Rayan was involved and had late chances but the team were lagging

      I might have to hold Rogers and sacrifice Rice

      Wilson went off with an injury tho.

    2. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 months, 12 days ago

      People here mention that Wilson might have gotten an injury.

  29. nanxun

    2-1 across the board for all 3 pm fixtures today.
