Perez, Bernardo and Deulofeu among the benched FPL assets in Gameweek 4

Six Premier League matches kick off at 15:00 BST today, with Manchester City v Brighton and Hove Albion among the games taking place this afternoon.

A number of key Fantasy Premier League assets have dropped to the bench, one of whom is Bernardo Silva: the Portugal international is replaced on the right flank by Riyad Mahrez for the second time this season.

Rodri ousts Ilkay Gundogan from central midfield in Pep Guardiola’s only other change.

Raheem Sterling, Sergio Aguero, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Kevin De Bruyne all start.

Graham Potter has had a bit of a reshuffle, with Solly March joining the front three and Bernardo coming in at left wing-back.

Adam Webster replaces Shane Duffy at centre-half, while there is another start for Leandro Trossard.

Fikayo Tomori makes his first start for Chelsea in place of Andreas Christensen, who drops to the bench.

That is Frank Lampard’s only change, with opposite number Chris Wilder also making only one alteration: Oli McBurnie in for David McGoldrick.

Ayoze Perez has paid the price for a sluggish start to the season as he drops to the bench for Leicester’s match with Bournemouth.

Ben Chilwell, Wilfred Ndidi, Harvey Barnes and Marc Albrighton are recalled as Christian Fuchs, Hamza Choudhury and Dennis Praet also make way.

Harry Wilson in for Charlie Daniels is Eddie Howe’s only change.

Javi Gracia has made three changes from the West Ham defeat and appears to be going with a wing-back system: Jose Holebas, the injured Etienne Capoue and Gerard Deulofeu make way, with Christian Kabasele, Daryl Janmaat and Roberto Pereyra taking their places.

Amid all the injury talk at Newcastle, there are only two changes: Christian Atsu and Jetro Willems in for the sidelined Allan Saint-Maximin and Matt Ritchie.

West Ham have named an unchanged side from their win against Watford, while Daniel Farke has made just one alteration from Gameweek 3: Christoph Zimmermann replacing the injured Grant Hanley at centre-back.

Dean Smith and Roy Hodgson have named unchanged teams from Gameweek 3 as Crystal Palace take on Aston Villa at Selhurst Park.

      Do you actually enjoy this game? Honestly all you do is whinge when your players don’t score points.

        Hahahahah

        And?

    Barnes and James - OR - Abraham and McGinn

    James looks quite dangerous but gives the ball away a lot and gets no bonus in a team somewhat struggling for goals. Barnes seems consistent but how long can he keep it up?
    Abraham could be explosive and should be presented with plenty of chances but needs to prove consistency. McGinn is a good option but never expecting too much from him.

    1. The Big Fella

      I have him and want to bring in KDB and the only way I can do it is by selling him or Sterling

    Can someone inform Sterling that I captained him?

    1. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years

      He knows. That's why he is not scoring.

    Norwich may score goals, but they still look like a relegation team.

    how Tielemans doesnt get a red card for that is a pthetic joke, ankle breaker that was

  30. GAMBIT

    Cannot believe we all slept on Aguero. He consistently proves to be the most dangerous player in this game
