Popular captain Jimenez starts in strong Wolves side

One of Double Gameweek 35’s captain favourites Raúl Jiménez (£6.9m) starts for Wolves in the Saturday afternoon matches.

Thankfully for those backing him, Nuno Espirito Santo has named a very strong starting XI to support him.

First-choice full-backs Jonny (£4.3m) and Matt Doherty (£5.3m) both keep their places in the side, as does Jiménez’s strike partner Diogo Jota (£6.2m).

Opponents Brighton have gone with the same centre-back pairing of Shane Duffy (£4.8m) and Lewis Dunk (£4.4m), while Mat Ryan (£4.4m) is still in goal.

Despite those three players being involved in a disastrous Double Gameweek last time out, some managers will have left them in their squads and may be keeping an eye on them this afternoon.

There has been plenty of attention on Watford’s attack this week, and after days of speculation, we now know which two players will play up front for them against Huddersfield.

With Troy Deeney (£5.9m) suspended, and Isaac Success (£4.5m) still playing catch-up in the pecking order, it is Andre Gray (£5.9m) and Gerard Deulofeu (£5.6m) who lead the Hornets’ line.

Mainstay Abdoulaye Doucouré (£6.0m) keeps his place in central midfield as expected, while Craig Cathcart (£4.5m) and Ben Foster (£4.6m) start in defence.

With Jose Holebas (£4.8m) out, Adam Masina (£4.3m) starts at left-back while Adrian Mariappa (£4.2m) comes in for Christian Kabasele (£4.4m) at centre-back.

Bournemouth are unchanged for their home match against Fulham, which could reward those who looked at single Gameweek options.

So too could Jamie Vardy (£9.0m) and his Leicester colleagues, as they have Marc Albrighton (£5.1m) back in the starting line-up for the first time since Gameweek 24 at West Ham.

Bournemouth XI: Boruc; Aké, S Cook, Mepham, A Smith; Fraser, Gosling, Lerma, Brooks; King, Wilson.

Fulham XI: Rico; Bryan, Le Marchand, Ream, Odoi; Seri, Anguissa, Chambers; Sessegnon, Mitrovic, Babel.

Huddersfield XI: Lössl; Smith, Schindler, Kongolo, Durm; Hogg, Bacuna, Mooy; Kachunga, Mounie, Mbenza.

Watford XI: Foster; Kiko Femenía, Mariappa, Cathcart, Masina; Doucouré, Capoue; Hughes, Sema; Deulofeu, Gray.

West Ham XI: Fabianski; Zabaleta, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Masuaku; Rice; Antonio, Noble, Snodgrass, Felipe Anderson; Arnautovic.

Leicester XI: Schmeichel; Ricardo Pereira, Evans, Maguire, Chilwell; Ndidi; Gray, Tielemans, Maddison, Albrighton; Vardy.

Wolves XI: Rui Patrício; Bennett, Coady, Boly; Doherty, Gibbs-White, Rúben Neves, João Moutinho, Jonny; Jiménez, Diogo Jota.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Bruno, Duffy, Dunk, Bong; Groß, Stephens, Pröpper; March, Murray, Izquierdo.

          No confidence that OR #1 went for Laca (c)

    Just had a nice shower and shave and put on some aftershave. I always like to look pretty when I hand over my hard earned cash to the person in the bookies.

    1. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      It's good to make an effort.

  4. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years

    Anyone esle worried about those news that Ole is ready to sell Kaku and his game time? Of that's true maybe Martial or Rash could be great end of the season differentials

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      stop gossiping

    2. Emiliano Sala
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Ready to sell kaku's gametime?

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        It's not my gossip. I read the news. Anyone itk to shred some lights on it?

        1. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Yea my mate is the coffee lady' son. She's still on terms with sir Alex a few times a month and he said Ole is selling Kaku if he doesn't shed a stone in the summer.

    3. Sif
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Wont be a huge differential, many will be eyeing up Rashford for those last two fixtures regardless.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah I am considering Kun to Rash and Salah for Erriksen

      Shop window

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Well he won't give game time to him if he is not happy with him right?

    5. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I'm worried that we won't sell him.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        You could think that way too

  5. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    How long til Bournemouth score then??

  6. John Colby (Capt)
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    City looked tired today and now no KDB. Is the title edging ‘pool’s way??

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Utd probably the only ones who can stop them now.

      1. Licky
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Brighton maybe, if they're desperate.

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

    3. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      hopefully. city even a tad lucky today to get all 3pts, spurs had many chances just were a bit wasteful/ederson and laporte put in shifts

    4. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Brendan Rodgers to steal a point to hand Liverpool the title in GW37 then Rafa to steal a point and hand it back to city !

  7. DAZZ
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Got Deulofeu, Wilson to score first, and Rondon to score a header 300/1, come on Callum.

    1. JohnnyMagrinho
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Crazy. How much you put on?

        1. DAZZ

        What happened mate

      4. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        This will be my last season til next year

      5. Lionel Ronaldo
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        I've had a shitty DGW32 score.
        I've had a shitty WC34 score.
        My BB35 will me no less shitty.

        To catch my ML opponent, I try to go for differentials (Salah, KDB, Deeney, double Brighton DEF) while they go the popular/safe route (Mane, Sterling, City DEF, Deulofeu). Mane in blazing form, KDB injured, -4 for Deeney out, Deulofeu overcomes a yellow flag and scores

        Never has luck favoured me once this season.
