A west London derby gets Double Gameweek 33 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) underway.

Kick-off at the Gtech Community Stadium is at 12.30pm BST.

A win for Brentford lifts them, even if temporarily, into sixth place, while Fulham will move level on points with the Bees if they emerge victorious today.

Igor Thiago will draw level on Premier League goals with Erling Haaland if he finds the back of the net this afternoon. Two or more goals would give him an outright lead in the Golden Boot race.

TEAM NEWS

The hosts’ team news is nice and simple, as head coach Keith Andrews has named an unchanged line-up.

Aaron Hickey is back in the matchday squad after a two-month absence, although only as a substitute.

Marco Silva, meanwhile, has made four changes to the Cottagers’ starting XI from the 2-0 defeat to Liverpool.

Antonee Robinson, Josh King, Oscar Bobb and Sander Berge all drop to the bench.

Ryan Sessegnon, Emile Smith Rowe, Sasa Lukic and Tom Cairney take their places.

Raul Jimenez has to make do with substitute duty again, with Rodrigo Muniz keeping his place up top.

LINE-UPS

Brentford XI: Kelleher, Kayode, van den Berg, Collins, Lewis-Potter, Yarmoliuk, Jensen, Ouattara, Damsgaard, Schade, Thiago.

    Man Thiago could have had 2 at least only for Leno

      Don't think he had a SOT

        He did first half. The guy on the radio said that save at the end was from Thiago but it was in fact Outarra

        1. Sun God Nika

          He definitely did not have a shot on target

        2. Utopsis

          Ah OK, missed the 1st half one

      2. Raoul Nogues

          He needs someone else to shoot to be able to "deflect on goal "

        Thiago deflection again, in the other direction this time

        I just can’t catch a break, ML leader WC to max DGW players and still has FH next week so I’m reliant on Haaland TC being the greatest FPL haul of all time this week.

        It’s not even about the overall at this stage as that ship has sailed, but be nice to win a monthly prize for once 🙁

          Won't they still survive if Brom get less than 5 in the last 4 and Leicester win the remaining 3 games?

            Darlow probably won’t be able to match him over the double now, that is the way 😆
