The first of two Premier League matches to be contested this Sunday kicks off at 13:30 BST, with Wolverhampton Wanderers taking on Burnley at Molineux.
Ruben Neves (£5.2m), without an attacking return since Gameweek 1, is by far the most widely owned player on show in the West Midlands this afternoon, sitting in over one in four Fantasy Premier League squads.
Neves has created only one chance from Gameweek 2 onwards, with all eight of his attempts on goal unsurprisingly coming from outside the opposition area.
No Wolves or Burnley player had a higher number of net transfers in than Ryan Bennett (£4.1m) this round, with the budget defender experiencing his first price rise of the season.
All six of Wolves’ backline – goalkeeper Rui Patricio (£4.5m), the three centre-halves and the two wing-backs – are currently available for £4.5m or less and have shown promise in their first four league matches this season: only two clubs have conceded fewer big chances than Nuno Espirito Santo’s side while just three sides have allowed more shots in the box.
Santo has named an unchanged side for the fifth successive league match, with Raul Jimenez (£5.5m) fit to lead the line after slight concerns about a muscle injury picked up over the international break.
Sean Dyche, meanwhile, has made three changes to the Burnley team that was defeated by Manchester United a fortnight ago.
Johann Berg Gudmundsson (£5.9m) returns to the Burnley starting XI – not a single FPL midfielder under the £6.0m mark registered more assists than the Icelandic midfielder in 2017/18.
Sam Vokes (£5.4m) and Ashley Barnes (£5.7m) also come into the side as Dyche fields a 4-4-2 from the start for the first time this season, with Chris Wood (£6.4m), Ashley Westwood and Dwight McNeil (both £4.5m) dropping out.
Not one of the Clarets’ players is owned by more than 10% of FPL bosses, with James Tarkowski (£5.0m) the most widely selected Burnley asset sitting in 9.8% of Fantasy squads.
Faith in the Burnley attack is also thin on the ground: not one of Burnley’s six starting midfielders or forwards is owned by more than 1% of Fantasy managers.
Wolves XI (3-4-3): Patricio; Bennett, Coady, Boly; Jonny, Moutinho, Neves, Doherty; Costa, Jota, Jimenez
Burnley XI (4-4-2): Hart; Bardsley, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor; Lennon, Hendrick, Cork, Gudmundsson; Barnes, Vokes
