Ings the most-owned FPL asset as Southampton take on Watford

The bottom two clubs in the Premier League face one another at St. Mary’s in the evening kick-off, as Southampton entertain Watford.

Kick-off on the south coast is at 17:30 GMT.

Ralph Hasenhuttl makes one enforced change to the Southampton side that drew 2-2 with Arsenal last weekend.

Moussa Djenepo is promoted to the starting XI in place of Stuart Armstrong, who is ruled out with a hamstring problem.

Sofiane Boufal makes the bench, having stubbed his toe in midweek.

Quique Sanchez Flores has made two changes to the Watford team that lost 3-0 at home to Burnley.

Left-back Adam Masina looks like he is filling in at centre-half as he replaces the injured Craig Dawson in defence, while Ismaila Sarr comes in for striker Andre Gray up top.

Roberto Pereyra has overcome a thigh strain but is only among the substitutes, as is Troy Deeney.

Not a single player on show this evening can boast a double-digit ownership.

Danny Ings is the most-owned player involved in tonight’s game, sitting in 6.5% of Fantasy Premier League squads.

Ings has scored five goals in the last seven Gameweeks, picking up nine bonus points along the way.

The Saints haven’t won since September, however.

Watford have kept clean sheets in three of the last six Gameweeks, meanwhile.

Southampton XI: McCarthy, Cedric, Stephens, Bednarek, Bertrand, Djenepo, Ward-Prowse, Hojbjerg, Redmond, Obafemi, Ings.

Watford XI: Foster, Femenia, Mariappa, Masina, Cathcart, Holebas, Doucoure, Capoue, Hughes, Deulofeu, Sarr.

    Need Ings to score the open goal

    Wouldn't bet on Ings starting midweek.

      Did he pull up?

        A couple of minutes off it. Redlining with the effort in the 2nd half.

      Party pooper

    3. JustPark

      Have Lunds/KDB coming in for him. Undecided who to bench still.

        Why won't he? He is their top scorer & they are in a relegation battle

          You don't know Ings well. Overdoing equals injury.

            • 9 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            Over doing? Lol they need to play him while he is inform, Early sub maybe but Southampton are fighting for their lives here and they havnt got any good enough replacements available, will probably play and be hooked off early

            I'm a Doctor and I assure you that overdoing does not always equal injury.

              With Ings it does.

                Damn, they didn't teach us about Ings in med school

      • TheSteel

        Why lol

      • Tcheco

      • Regin
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Southampton are not man city. They are fighting for their pl lives.

    6. Team Cruel

      Ings non owners got off the hook tonight. Deserved more points

    7. FPL Scoop

      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Is Alli overperforming? Or has he looked really good since Mou took over?

      & he's currently at 100.0 on FPLstats - anyone think he can avoid the price rise for one night? WCs in play?

      1. Jebiga
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        He will rise tonight without doubt.

      2. Tcheco
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        He's been a menace.

          • 7 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Yeah? So complete change from the past months under Poch then?

          Just wary of ditching Mount for him

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

            I'd want Pulisic more though

              really? just trading like-for-like with out of form chelsea then. and no spurs

      3. have you seen cyan
        • 5 Years

        under-performing, best player in the world

        If you have the money for Mount to Alli just do it. What's the problem?!?

        1. FPL Scoop
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Relative fixture difficulties this coming week mainly.

          1. WVA
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            Are the fixtures relevant? Mount in poor FPL form and quite likely to be benched

      5. Shineonme
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Rather son than Alli any day of the week.

          4 years, 11 months ago

          Can't afford without downgrading elsewhere. 2.0 ITB. Mane KDB Mount Maddison Dendo midfield, Laca Vardy Jimenez up top and standard defence

          1. JustPark
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            Maddison.

      6. FDMS All Starz
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Playing very advanced, good bet for his price but expect rotation later on

    8. FPL FREAK
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Pope. Button.
      Tomori. Lundstram. Rico. Engels. Lescalles.
      Mane. Sterling. KDB. Maddison. Mount.
      Vardy. Abraham. Conolly.

      2 fts..

      Iam really really confused... Cuz My plan was to get rid of Sterling or KDB to bring in Son and Jimenez.. But now both Sterling and KDB started to deliver.. Now Alli started to fire cylinders..

      Should I get rid of Sterling or KDB...??? I doubt they are back in form...

      I made a plan:

      Maddison + KDB + Mount + Conolly > Son + Alli + Hayden + Ings for -8.

      What do u say....?? Please help me....

      1. Stupendous

        Step away from the computer and go for a jog. Buy some vodka then drink it. Then stay away from the computer.

      Which to ditch first? 1FT...

      1. Martial
      2. Pope
      3. Both (-4)

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 6 Years

        Lol let Martial play.

        1. Coys96
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Yes but 2 tough fixtures, even if he gets a hat trick he's still coming out probs

          1. Tsparkes10
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            Spurs and City ain't exactly defending great rn. I see high scoring games

            1. Coys96
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              Good point. But with all the nice mid-priced midfields atm they're hard to ignore. Maybe I'll keep then. Zaha looks great for next load tho

                I'll probably be keeping if he looks good tomorrow. Excellent fixtures between GW16-22

            There were so many options this week and so many failed

            Kane
            Puli
            Mane
            Salah

            feel like I dodged a bullet with Son and Ings

            Salah+Mcginn to Alli+Son (-4)?

            Ryan
            Robbo Soy Lund
            Alli Son Mane Kdb Mount
            Vardy Jimmy

            Button Connoly Rico Tomori

            Mount > Alli is an extremely obvious move. Whos doing it? I did it 2 hours ago

              Might do Cantwell to Alli.

              Probs gonna wait one more week for Alli. Can see the United game being tight and low scoring.

            When they “check every goal”, in a multi million pound business, to let the Ings goal and the Newcastle goal stand earlier in the season is embarrassing.. they could easily end up staying up by a point or two. That’s some big errors due to incompetence

              One step forward two steps back

              For every correct decision there's a wrong decision

              Useless inconsistent system, it was better the old way!
