Two more Premier League matches follow on from Arsenal’s defeat to Bournemouth, both kicking off at 3pm BST.

Two of the Gameweek 33 doublers, Burnley and Brighton and Hove Albion, meet at Turf Moor.

Simultaneously, in west London, Brentford host Everton.

TEAM NEWS

Starting with the team news from in-demand Brighton, Fabian Hurzeler has made two changes from the Seagulls’ last outing in Gameweek 31.

Both are enforced as Lewis Dunk is suspended and James Milner has picked up an injury.

Olivier Boscagli and Yasin Ayari come into the side.

Diego Gomez and Yankuba Minteh keep their places on the flanks, which means more bench duty for Kaoru Mitoma.

Danny Welbeck leads the line again.

As for Burnley, Scott Parker responds to the defeat to Fulham by making four changes. He’s had his hand forced with two of them, as Hannibal Mejbri and Josh Laurent are absent through injury and suspension.

Lesley Ugochukwu, Marcus Edwards, Hjalmar Ekdal and Florentino Luis all start, while Kyle Walker and Lyle Foster are benched.

There are two alterations for Brentford for the visit of Everton.

Two players affected by injury in Gameweek 31, Dango Ouattara and Mikkel Damsgaard, are back in the side.

Ethan Pinnock moves down to substitute duty, while Jordan Henderson misses out entirely.

David Moyes has made only one change from Everton’s 3-0 win over Chelsea.

It comes at the back as Jarrad Branthwaite gets the nod over Michael Keane, who drops to the bench.

    Do one Kelleher 😡

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      8 days, 7 hours ago

      Annoying. Raya wasn't any better though.

  2. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    8 days, 7 hours ago

    KDH is too good

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      Wasted a season at Chelsea unfortunately due to them transferring in and out players to circumvent PSR rules

  3. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 13 Years
    8 days, 7 hours ago

    Played Raya. Benched Dub.

    Not feeling good

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 12 Years
      8 days, 7 hours ago

      Bur will concede

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        Hope so. Dub last haul on the bench was so painful

  4. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    8 days, 7 hours ago

    Beto was actually the auto pick forward when on WC 😮

  5. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    8 days, 7 hours ago

    NDiaye 5 defcons already. An inspired transfer in.

  6. GREEN IS GOOD
    • 9 Years
    8 days, 6 hours ago

    Are there any more dgw or blanks after GW34?

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      36 probably

    2. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      Should be a DGW for Man City & Palace in GW36. That’s it though

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      Just one more double as City and Palace still have to play each other, will most likely be refixed in GW36

  7. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 13 Years
    8 days, 6 hours ago

    Would you BB this?

    Dub*, Thiago Anderson, Andersen

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      It’s not terrible. Might be worth looking at all the remaining GW’s we have left and seeing if any look better in relation to your team and what it’s likely to be going forward

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        Cheers.

        Got SGWers Gabriel and Bruno starting, so that BB lineup is kinda damage limitation against all the FH33, BB33 and WC teams.

        Will check the upcoming fixtures, but you think I should keep the BB for say DGW36 instead? Getting the likes of Henderson or Richards later could pay off

  8. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    8 days, 6 hours ago

    Thiago so close

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      Looks in the mood, think he fancies another hat trick vs Everton!

  9. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    8 days, 6 hours ago

    Burnley looking good for a goal here!

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years

      Welbz wtf

    5. JBG
      • 7 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      That assist is pretty Gross to non owners

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        I have Verbruggen, Van Hecke and Welbeck. Hopefully a clean sheet is on the cards and Welbeck can grab a goal in the 2nd half.

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 13 Years
          8 days, 6 hours ago

          Unfortunately that's not how FPL works 😉

    6. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      Gross was always the best pick boys :))

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        Gross was always the play 😉

    7. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      Need that Brighton cs gone. 🙂

    8. Firminooooo
      • 10 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      Please get Mitoma on. Need some points.

    9. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      As if Groß gets an assist the week he is a model pick by content creators and alike, after weeks of doing nothing.

      Sure it’s all fixed lmao

    10. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      That Brighton clean sheet will hurt my rank like crazy especially when you have double Ars defence.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        Same here. Counting on Flemming

      2. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        They are guaranteed to score after I tripled up on Brighton defense

    11. JBG
      • 7 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      Is Gross 1st on pens BTW?

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        Not when Welbz on the pitch

      2. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        5 years ago yes

        1. JBG
          • 7 Years
          8 days, 6 hours ago

          Yeah that's why I asked haha, but guess not anymore.

    12. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 days, 6 hours ago

      That Brighton clean sheet looks locked, Burnley are just shite

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        Nice way to jinx it 😉

      2. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        8 days, 6 hours ago

        Now you’ve said they won’t!
