Sergio Aguero (£11.4m) was named in the Manchester City starting line-up ahead of a 3 pm kick-off against Brighton and Hove Albion.

The Argentinian striker is by far the most popular captain choice for Gameweek 7 so it will be a relief for his 52.8% ownership to see him on the team sheet.

How many minutes he will manage to rack up may depend on how the match is going, considering that Pep Guardiola has hooked him off around the hour-mark twice recently.

Meanwhile, both David Silva (£8.6m) and Bernardo Silva (£7.6m) have been named in the line-up too while Aymeric Laporte (£5.6m) makes his seventh successive league start of the campaign.

Jurgen Locadia (£5.4m) leads the Brighton line with Glenn Murray (£6.5m) on the bench.

Alexandre Lacazette (£9.5m) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.8m) start up front together for Arsenal while Sokratis Papastathopoulous (5.3m) not fit enough for a place on the bench. Rob Holding (£4.4m) comes in for him, while Henrikh Mkhitaryan (£7.0m) is among the substitutes again.

Just one change for Watford as Marc Navarro (£4.3m) comes in for the injured Daryl Janmaat (£5.0m).

There will plenty of interest in happenings at Goodison Park this afternoon as both Richarlison (£6.7m) and Aleksandar Mitrovic (£7.0m) go head-to-head for Everton and Fulham.

Spurs have switched to a back-three for their trip to Huddersfield with Kieran Trippier (£6.1m) and Harry Kane (£12.4m) hoping to benefit from the system change.

It looks like Kenedy (£4.9m) could be playing at left-back for Newcastle today although we will see once the match has kicked off. DeAndre Yedlin (£4.5m) has overcome doubts over his fitness to start the match at right-back.

Ricardo Pereira (£5.1m) returns to the Leicester side, but in a more advanced position than his previous berth of right-back. He has been deployed in attacking midfield.

      7 years, 2 months ago

      Well done!
      I have the same three this week! Needed a 4.4 def to get Richarlison (-4) and not much appeal to me so I went Jonny. Richarlison blanked but it's Jonny who rewarded me today.

      That Doherty assist + Jonny goal. Wow. I was screaming like crazy at home.

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 10 Years

    Off now to put a fiver on.

    Chelsea v Liverpool. Overs. No goals for Salah, Robertson, Hazard, or Alonso.

  7. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Should've done Mendy to Doherty..

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I should have done Auba to Kane,Rich to Maddi and VVD to Trippier

    2. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Me too, did Trippier instead

    3. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I did this. But unfortunately left me with change to bring in Richarlison for a hit. Need to know when to stop.

    4. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Or tripp.

    5. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

    6. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Should’ve done Auba>Kane! Would have left me stick with three mid wastes of space though!

  8. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Tripp and Dohert pulling their weight at least... Dilva and Kun underwhelming.

    And sorry for bringing Mitrostink in lads...

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      8 from Kun ks decent

      1. Jules Rimet
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        agree

  9. MidTableFantasy
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Moves I was planning on regardless of today's points. Would you:

    A) David Silva > Yarmolenko
    or
    B) Mitro > Arnie

  10. Zebrahimović
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

  13. trikster102
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Looks like my goalkeeper curse continues. After finally getting my first clean sheet last week from one of my GP's and check my team wondering why on Earth Cech isn't on 6 points or more, I discover he came off after 45 minutes 🙁

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Thats how VVD owners felt last week

  16. Nice to Finally Michu
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    1. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah, everyone captained Aguero

      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

    5. TorresMagic™

    8. ClassiX
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Your link says 45...

  18. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

  19. Paul
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I know Johnny Doherty.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Magic 😀

    3. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Wow. Nicely done.

  20. The real slim shady
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone watched Everton game, how did Richa look?

  21. Simon Says...
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Jumped and did the -8 to get Kane - sold Wilson, and he could still haul, but Harry's done his bit. Bennett coming in to help the deal is a lovely bonus. Triple Wolves defence FTW

    1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      What were the total transfers though because you must have sold somebody else pricey to get the cash to enable Wilson to Kane?

      1. Simon Says...
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Mendy and Moura out too. Had a strong front 8 so had to get a Bench midfielder in a way. Holbjerg came in.

        1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Vindication for not holding Mendy then really... I’ve said before the cash from these premiums is useful elsewhere.

  22. Desperately Seeking Dusan
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    I will hold my hands up and admit that I did not expect Richi to blank against both Arsenal and Fulham.

  23. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Aguero may get 2 bonus after all.

  24. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    So glad I didn't do the Theo to Rich switch! Walcott's giving decent returns at Everton!

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I have rich

      I fancy the Brazilian boy long term. The lad is a talent

      Hopefully back in his normal role next week

    2. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Walcott won't match Richarlison returns.

    3. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah but GB, what about those weeks Walcott has done nothing when everybody jumped on him? I don’t think you can ever look at one week in isolation unless it’s truly a one week punt.

  25. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Sterling - 3
    Kun - 2
    Walker - 1

    1. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      none for laporte 🙁

    2. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Sterling you little beauty.

  26. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    41 post BP according to Fix, with Salah, Hazard, Alonso and Hennessey to go.
    60 still on my sights!

  27. balint84
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Who would you sacrifice for Kane?

    A) Hazard
    B) Kun
    C) Salah

    1. FantaCity
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Salah if you have mane

      1. balint84
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        When will be the first price dropping&rise? Kane price rise expected when?

  28. FantaCity
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Auba has to leave ...
    A) Downshift to Arnie
    B) Upgrade to Kane

  29. drughi
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Doherty, Trippier and kane in on wildcard 🙂 but also Richarlison and mitrovic 🙁

  30. Fortune
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    what a roller coaster...

    i had kun (c) and siggy.
    that early 50 mins got me hopeless...
