Double Gameweek 33, the largest of this Fantasy Premier League (FPL) season, is about to conclude with two matches involving lots of currently popular assets: Bournemouth v Leeds United, and Burnley v Manchester City.

Both kick off at 20:00 BST.

TEAM NEWS

FPL notes: “Amazing” Rayan, £4.2m goalkeeper starts + Summerville scores again

Apart from Burnley’s three adjustments that bring Josh Laurent, Bashir Humphreys and Loum Tchaouna in for Marcus Edwards, Lesley Ugochukwu and Florentino Luis, there are very few changes to the lineups.

In fact, by replacing the slightly injured Rodri with Rayan Ait-Nouri, Man City have seemingly moved Nico O’Reilly into central midfield.

That’s their only change, as Bournemouth’s one alteration brings in David Brooks for Rayan.

Opponents Leeds have the same XI from Saturday’s 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers. Therefore, centre-back Joe Rodon begins on the bench.

Following Chelsea’s shock Tuesday team news, FPL owners should be pleased to see starts for Erling Haaland, Antoine Semenyo, Rayan Cherki, Marcus Tavernier, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, James Justin, Jaka Bijol, Gabriel Gudmundsson, Marcos Senesi and James Hill.


LINE-UPS

Bournemouth XI: Petrovic; Jimenez, Hill, Senesi, Truffert; Scott, Christie; Brooks, Kroupi Jr, Tavernier; Evanilson

Subs: Mandas, Gannon-Doak, Adams, Smith, Diakite, Adli, Toth, Rayan, Unal

Leeds United XI: Darlow; Justin, Bijol, Struijk; Bogle, Ampadu, Tanaka, Gudmundsson; Aaronson, Okafor; Calvert-Lewin

Subs: Perri, Rodon, Bornauw, Longstaff, James, Buonanotte, Gnonto, Piroe, Nmecha 


Burnley XI: Dubravka; Walker, Esteve, Ekdal, Humphreys, Hartman; Anthony, Ward-Prowse, Laurent, Tchaouna; Flemming

Subs: Weiss, Worrall, Ugochukwu, Foster, Edwards, Florentino, Lucas Pires, Broja, Tresor 

Manchester City XI: Donnarumma; Nunes, Khusanov, Guéhi, Ait-Nouri; Bernardo, O’Reilly; Semenyo, Cherki, Doku; Haaland

Subs: Trafford, Reijnders, Stones, Ake, Marmoush, Kovacic, Nico, Savinho, Foden

    Techno Viking needs to go absolutely berserk this evening….

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      1 day, 3 hours ago

      …and much better team sheets today after yesterday’s Chelsea fiasco

      Won’t affect rank that much if he does

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        1 day, 2 hours ago

        Have him captain in H2H vs non-capper and need to make up 16pts

  2. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 day, 3 hours ago

    Word is Rosenior got the boot for screwing over FPL GW33 BBs…

    1. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      1 day, 3 hours ago

      Lol deserved it for solely ruining my gw

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Deserved it for that alone

    3. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      You just don’t mess with FPL mangers. He had to learn the hard way.

  3. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 day, 3 hours ago

    Cricky O’Reilly in midfield is no different from LB, as he’s always in super advanced positions anyway…

  4. Under my Cucurella
    • 10 Years
    1 day, 3 hours ago

    Which option on FH

    A: Cunha Hermansen
    B: Ndiaye Raya

    xxx
    Gab VVD Porro
    Bruno Salah MGW Xavi xxx
    Watkins Bowen

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      1 day, 3 hours ago

      B

  5. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 day, 3 hours ago

    So Man City can go top tonight if win by +2 goals….that Arsenal 9pt lead really has shrunk in the wash

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Shrunk in the wash 😆

      The temperature was too high for them.

        lol

  6. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    No interest in Isak as a differential on a FH.

    1. brianutd-why always we? 20
      • 14 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Correct

      1. NZREDS
        • 12 Years
        1 day, 2 hours ago

        lol, quite simple really!

    2. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Haven’t seen him since he returned from injury. Does his movement look good? Is he getting into good positions? Is he having shots on goal?

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        1 day, 2 hours ago

        None of those

        1. Count of Monte Hristo
          • 12 Years
          1 day, 2 hours ago

          😆

        2. JBG
          • 7 Years
          1 day, 2 hours ago

          Exactly why FHers should go for him, he's due, 2pts.

      2. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 2 hours ago

        No idea. Not seen him either but apart from Bowen I don't see many great options for this week and Watkins isn't exactly killing it this year.

        1. JBG
          • 7 Years
          1 day, 2 hours ago

          Not expecting much from Bowen either tbh.

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Just putting it out there.

      Wasn't much interest in my MGW suggestion.

    4. Haalander
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      He’s not even close to fit

  7. boombaba
    • 13 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Palmer and Kroupi to MGW and Watkins?

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Makes sense

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 day, 2 hours ago

        Fair

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          1 day, 2 hours ago

    Neville City will score a dozen 😮

  18. mixology
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Was Kyle Walker really that bad on his loan stint at AC Milan that Burnley was one of his better options. I understand he’s 35 but still don’t understand that one

    1. NZREDS
      • 12 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Ah think it’s more he was getting on a bit, wasn’t many suitors for him in the league

  19. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Man City currently top of league with more goals scored…nearly Haaland again, yikes

  20. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    That goal and the starting players have taken me from 65 points pre bonus to 86 with Haaland on 33

    Bring this on!!

  21. OverTinker
    • 7 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    24 million for just 3 months of work (or lack of). That's 8 million per month for Rosenior

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Respect the ball

    2. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      The word “gullible” isn’t in the dictionary either

  22. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Turning into a game of headers & volley’s….

  23. DaniCT
    • 12 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Rayan bench 🙁

  24. WVA
    • 9 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Need some serious bench boost points to keep pace with the Haaland triple captainers

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      Those not played have another double?

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        1 day, 1 hour ago

        Yep but he will blank in that one

  25. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Ciiy need to tighten up at the back, third chance given up

  26. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Burnley are going for it.

  27. SM001
    • 10 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Haaland is doing some great defending for Burnley.

  28. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Why did I put on Semenyo(c)

  29. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Kroupi booked, may get hooked early

  30. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 day, 2 hours ago

    Crikey O’Reilly nearly with another headed goal…

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      1 day, 2 hours ago

      …and a SoT
