Aurier starts again as Leicester and Spurs name unchanged teams

Leicester City continue their push for a UEFA Champions League qualification place this afternoon.

The Foxes head south face to Spurs in their latest pursuit of three points, with kick-off at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at 16:00 BST.

The team news is very straightforward as both managers have named unchanged starting XIs following wins in Gameweek 36+.

That means another start for Serge Aurier (£5.1m), who has travelled back from France after spending time with his family in the wake of his brother’s death.

It also means a second successive run-out for Luke Thomas (£4.0m) for the visitors, with the budget Fantasy Premier League defender again featuring at left wing-back.

Brendan Rodgers’ side are without Ricardo Pereira (£6.2m), James Maddison (£7.3m), Ben Chilwell (£5.5m), Christian Fuchs (£4.2m) and Marc Albrighton (£5.1m) through injury, with Caglar Soyuncu (£4.9m) suspended.

Dele Alli (£8.3m) is still unavailable for Spurs but Juan Foyth (£4.8m) returns from a lengthy lay-off and is among the substitutes.

Only one Leicester player has an effective ownership of more than 1% in the top 10k: that, unsurprisingly, is Jamie Vardy (£9.7m), who sits in just over one in five of these squads.

Aurier has been benched by more than half of his owners within the top 10k, meanwhile.

Mourinho’s starting XI may have been unchanged in the last three games but the formation continues to evolve, with Son Heung-min (£9.7m) here playing out wide on the left of a 4-2-3-1 rather than up top alongside Harry Kane (£10.9m).


Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris; Aurier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Davies; Sissoko, Winks; Lo Celso, Lucas, Son; Kane.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel; Bennett, Morgan, Evans; Justin, Ndidi, Tielemans, Thomas; Perez, Vardy, Barnes.

    Looks like Kane got a touch on that. It should be his second goal of the evening

    I wonder how much Soy missing is contributing to this. Imagine one stupid kickout potentially costing your team champs league spot.

    Kane or Auba in for Vardy next week (-4)?

    Tough decision

    Imagine bringing in wood when you could have brought in Kane

    1. diesel001
      • 8 Years

      Bit of a price difference......

    2. Fred54
      • 9 Years

      I was thinking about it, in the end brought in Salah and Pieters.

    3. Duffy Dunk

      Couldn't predict LEI being thaaat weak, neither TOT that clinical.

  13. Sun Jihai

    Kane essential for next GW I guess

  14. Camzy

    This ain't good. Kane will now be 11.0m next season easily. Before this game he was probably at 10.0m or 10.5m...

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      So many big hitters in this game now. Going to be tough to decide next season.

      Salah and KDB the best 2 imo.

    If Villa dont win Man.Utd can go for high GD vs already safe West Ham

    What's happening here?? Turning back is it?

    1. Is the old Arsenal back?

    2. Is the old Kane back?

    3. Is the old Mou back?

    I'm sure we'll scratch all of those as soon as the new season starts 😛

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Won’t face a hurrikane every week

    2. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Can't believe people were thinking of going without Bruno or Martial...

    How can anyone predict these results. Fecking hell. I think I'm taking a break next season.

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      But that's part of the game. Same with peps roulette etc.

  23. Threat Level Midnight

    Wow Harry. United fans are grateful

  24. Saïss Doesn't Mat…
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    That's what happens when you deny him his assist!!
    Should have triple capped him

  25. Isco Disco
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Martial (TC) locked in

  26. Monkey Hanger
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Harry only needs another seven for the golden boot.

    1. TheDragon
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      He’ll have that sorted second half

  27. El Presidente
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Rodgers should be fired on the spot at HT!!!

  28. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Lei and Utd same goal difference now

  29. Revival

    Kane always delivers in GW37

    This crazy season of extreme variance is going to end in a perfect way next week where there are c15 great attacking options and we can only pick 7.

    There are going to be some huge huge points swings in mini leagues

    1. Duffy Dunk
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      What a crazy season indeed. As much as it may give us something fun to pass time during these weird times, it's been way too hard to predict & logic played a small part in what has happened.

      1. TheDragon
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        100% agree this season

        Ridiculously random
