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.

    • 7 Years

    Itchy doing Haaland > Sesko until WC32, just the rotation is a bit concerning. Do it?

    1. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      Prefer Ekitike.

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        28 days, 12 hours ago

    1. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

    • 11 Years
    28 days, 12 hours ago

    1. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      That goal for Tottenham might make all the difference when it comes down to goal difference at the business end of the season

  8. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    28 days, 12 hours ago

    Best midfielder up to 8.3 except Semenyo/Dango/Cunha?

          1. Old Wulfrunian
            • 9 Years
            28 days, 11 hours ago

            You mean to sell Mbeumo?Too expensive for what he is returning and i think that Newcastle will win.

  9. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    28 days, 12 hours ago

    Everyone who had Bruno vice should get 0 points

    1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years

        • 11 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        Make a good captaincy decision and get punished by 50% of the game getting ridiculous bench jam

    4. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      He would’ve got 2 points if the referee wasn’t a cheat

    5. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      Anyone who owns Wilson for his jammy returns every week should have their team deleted.

  10. Mom, Butters just gave me a…

    28 days, 12 hours ago

    I was first a bit annoyed with my Ekitike vice captain decision...

    But going for Bruno captain worked out quite nicely in the end as well.

    The Haaland blank tastes even more delicious now.

    1. Mom, Butters just gave me a…

  11. F4L
    • 11 Years
    28 days, 12 hours ago

  12. Vazza
    • 5 Years
    28 days, 12 hours ago

    Did Maguire go off injured?

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

  13. JohnnyB10
    • 1 Year
    28 days, 12 hours ago

    Bruno captain next week again vs leaky Newcastle

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

    2. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      Probably wont have a ref from Manchester next game mind

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

      not sure he's got enough goal threat at the minute, although united's other attackers seem in good nick so i guess the assists wont slow down

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

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Roefs

        Wait for news on Wilson

    • Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      When you’re disappointed you haven’t been rewarded for selecting the captain, only to notice ML rival sold that asset!

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        28 days, 12 hours ago

        *selecting right captain

    • Vazza
      • 5 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      Hi guys. Did Maguire go off injured?

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        No, looked fine

        1. Biggsy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          28 days, 11 hours ago

          Went straight down the tunnel didn't he? That's not usually "looking fine"

      2. #1 Salah Hater
        • 1 Year
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        He was chatting with Carrick for a bit after he went off. Could've been nothing but didn't like that

      3. Hairy Potter
        • 10 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        BBC said he went down the tunnel after talking to physios. It wasn't clear on Sky as him and Carrick said a few words to each other when he came off, but the commentators didn't say anything.

    • Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      Wilson, Bruno C and Palmer making it a very sweet Sunday indeed!

    • Traction Engine Foot
      • 8 Years
      28 days, 12 hours ago

      Ugh, Richards lost his defcon points

    • BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      Could have taken Richards one more DC. Coming in for Andersen with a lovely 1 pointer.

      1. #1 Salah Hater
        • 1 Year
        28 days, 11 hours ago

        Be grateful he played at all. Man was bandaged up like he'd just came back from 2 tours in Afghanistan

        1. BobbyDoesNotLook
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          28 days, 11 hours ago

          Okay I am grateful for Andersen being ill and getting 1p from the bench while last week having Richards' 6p locked on the bench 😀

    • Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      28 days, 11 hours ago

      No point rage transferring Wilson in for Rogers just yet if there’s injury news then I guess?

      1. Sgt. Schultz
        • 9 Years
        28 days, 11 hours ago
