Hudson-Odoi benched as injured Wood misses out for Burnley

The 3.5% of Fantasy Premier League managers invested in Callum Hudson-Odoi (£6.0m) were left in the lurch by Frank Lampard’s latest team sheet.

After an assist in each of his last three league outings, the exciting winger has been named on the bench for the first time since Gameweek 7.

Hudson-Odoi has been replaced int he starting line-up by Christian Pulisic (£7.1m) after the American himself displayed strong form of late.

It looks as if Lampard has lined his troops up in a 4-3-3 formation for the trip to Burnley, which might be a little bit discouraging for owners of Mason Mount (£6.9m), although he does start.

It is probable that the budget midfielder will be deployed in the central midfield trio alongside Jorginho (£5.1m) and Mateo Kovačić (£5.3m), having spent much of this season in attacking midfield.

Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) leads the line, of course, flanked by Pulisic and Willian (£7.0m).

Meanwhile, Burnley are missing Chris Wood (£6.2m) to injury, with Jay Rodriguez (£5.7m) coming into the side to replace him alongside Ashley Barnes (£6.4m).

Burnley XI: Pope; Pieters, Mee, Tarkowski, Lowton; McNeil, Westwood, Cork, Hendrick; A Barnes, Rodriguez.

Chelsea XI: Kepa; Alonso, Tomori, Zouma, Azpilicueta; Mount, Jorginho, Kovačić; Willian, Abraham, Pulisic.

      Wilson -> Vardy
      Downgrade Pereira ( or CHO/Mount to a 4.5m)

    2. bialk

      Pereira

      Any cheap attacking defenders or just go with Soy? Maybe Williems

    Pope saving a Tammy shot for Mount to score the rebound, needed!

      1 + 3 + 5 + BAPs 😆

    2. Stoic

      Best of all worlds

  11. Lev Yashin
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    So Mount kicks Hendrick and Hendrick gets a YC.

    OK.

    Mahrez to..
    a.) Maddison
    b.) Martial

  14. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy

    This is set for a goal for Alonso owners to stuff Tomori and a few Azpi/Zouma ones

    1. Nice to Finally Michu

      hes off the pitch

    2. g40steve
      • 6 Years

      What from the bench?

  15. Klein
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Hate when others get rico and lundstram points from bench and when my turn comes its lowton and fredrick no show.

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      You can't pick their teams.

    2. BigBillyBass
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Get a better bench then?

  16. Lev Yashin
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Never a YC.

  17. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Pieters -1

    For the chap asking earlier for his CS & assist...

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      He should be dropped. He's been beaten like the Willian goal multiple times this season. Never gets close enough. Taylor much needed.

  18. The Red Devil

    Tomori or chilwell? Leicester have much better fixtures...

  20. Syd.

    Pulisic is a nice player

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Has pedigree. Thankfully not too nice when on the pitch. Early days.

  21. Champions united

    No vardy
    No willain
    No pulisic

    4 goals says bbc.
    Triple attack says I.
    Fpl says no goals

  23. Lev Yashin
    • 11 Years

    Kova-sheesh.

  24. Champions League Varane

    Not even 70 mins gone yet - cmon Tammy And Mount 1 more return!

  25. Rainer

    Give Chelsea a pen 🙂

    1. Zladan

  26. Hy liverpool

    Tammy off

  27. Chucky

    Pulli off

    1. Chucky
      • 10 Years

      Tammy*

    2. Syd.

      You do do a lot of this

  28. Silecro
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Giroud on ! Pulisic out

  29. KGFC
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    From OR perspective, do Mount and Tammy points matter? Only asking coz I feel like everyone, esp in top 10, has them and that kind of negates it. As an owner of both, I'd be happy if that wasn't the case...

  30. FPL Blow-In

    My mate has owned Pulisic for so long and hasn’t been able to sell over other problems. Benched him for Wijnaldum this week lol
