Another start for Diangana as Stanislas ruled out with injury

Grady Diangana (£4.5m) is set for his third consecutive start for West Ham as they travel to Huddersfield Town today.

He registered an assist in his last outing to put himself on the Fantasy Premier League radar and could be on the hunt for more returns at the John Smith’s Stadium.

The youngster is once again used in wide midfield with Felipe Anderson (£6.9m) on the other flank.

Meanwhile, Huddersfield have lined-up with a 3-5-1-1 formation for another crucial home match.

Leicester City are indeed without James Maddison (£7.0m) and Harry Maguire (£5.5m) for the visit of Burnley.

Jonny Evans (£4.8m) and Rachid Ghezzal (£5.2m) come in for the absent pair.

Burnley’s ongoing roundabout of forwards continues into yet another week as Chris Wood (£6.2m) is paired with Sam Vokes (£5.3m) up front for the Clarets.

Ayoze Pérez (£6.1m) and Salomon Rondon (£5.7m) lead Newcastle’s line with Fabian Schär (£4.6m) making his first start since Gameweek 3 to replace the injured Jamaal Lascelles (£4.8m).

Bournemouth are without Josh King (£6.3m) once again which allows David Brooks (£5.1m) to play in an advanced position for the second week in a row.

Junior Stanislas (£6.0m) was ruled out between the week’s press conference and the release of the team sheet meaning Jordon Ibe (£5.1m) starts on the right flank. BBC Solent Sport are reporting a groin injury for Stanislas.

Isaac Success (£4.6m) makes his third start in a row for Watford at Southampton with Troy Deeney (£5.9m) fit enough only for the bench.

Huddersfield Town XI (3-5-1-1): Lössl; Zanka, Schindler, Kongolo; Hadergjonaj, Mooy, Hogg, Billing, Löwe; Pritchard; Mounie.

    Lowe stretchered off. Sad sight. Shoulder gone

    1. Bouncebackability

      Was genuinely going to go for him in a few weeks.

  2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

    I'l go out on a limb & predict that Wilson > Rondon will be a popular transfer this week. Possibly along with Fraser > Kennedy.

      Don’t you just know it. You wonder what the thought process is sometimes... “who got the most points this week?”

  3. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔

    Ings off for Austin
    Hughes off for Deeney

    1. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Any idea why the Ings swap?

    2. tm245
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Both before halftime? Odd.

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      What happened to Ings??

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

        No idea whatsoever

    4. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Both in my team. Good thing I've got 2 FTs saved.

    5. Taking one for the team
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      That’s annoying with Ings, what happened?

  4. tafrère
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    So basically almost all the players I thought I could bring this Gameweek are delivering (Kenedy, Paterson, Dunk, March).

  5. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Lowe down and out

  6. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 8 Years

    What a week to bring Wilson in 😀

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years

      Same 😀

    2. Chenku╰☆╮
      • 9 Years

      You guys wrecked him..selling him now

  7. Eddie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Why did Ings come off?

  8. EmreCan Hustle
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    What happened to Ings?

  9. BenDavies
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Can anyone please explain why Ings was taken off? So strange and commentators saying nothing about it.

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Looks like hammy

  10. Mysterion
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Newcastle playing well or are Bournemouth being their usual Jekyll & Hyde selves like back in GW 6?

    1. TheTinman
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Newcastle are actually on fire. Full of running

      1. Mysterion
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Nice, and without Shelvey too... happy for Rafa

        1. *sigh*
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Makes a big difference having a centre forward who can score.

          1. Mysterion
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Hopefully Joselu never starts again 😆

  11. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…

    rondon might not be that awful a pick tbh.Has burnley and west ham in the next 2

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah.

      Next time he'll score will be in March 2019.

  12. Do I Not Like Orange
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Time to bail on Bournemouth? If they're getting comfortably beaten by Newcastle it doesn't bode well against Arsenal, Pool and City.

    1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      i was dumping fraser anyway next week .This makes it easier to dumppp

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Newcastle are not that bad. Back to back clean sheets I think? Early season they had very tough games.

    3. Balotellitubbies
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      They got battered by burnley too. Wouldnt put too much weight on this game

    2. Mo Mané Mo Problems
