Brewster benched again as West Brom host Sheff Utd in Gameweek 10

Fantasy Premier League managers could be forgiven for turning a blind eye to the final match of Gameweek 10’s Saturday schedule.

It pits the division’s bottom two sides together at the Hawthorns in an encounter that carries very little Fantasy relevance.

The fact that the most popular asset from either West Bromwich Albion or Sheffield United is non-playing goalkeeper David Button (£4.0m) speaks volumes.

It is Rhian Brewster (£4.5m) who sits second in that race, his 6.2% ownership roughly 14 percentage points behind Button’s and he does not make a start tonight either.

For the second match in a row, the former Liverpool striker is chosen on Chris Wilder’s bench, the Sheffield United boss preferring Oli McBurnie (£5.7m) and Oliver Burke (£4.4m) up-front.

That means the most fashionable starter at the Hawthorns is John Egan (£4.8m), chosen only by 2.9% of Fantasy managers, just ahead of Aaron Ramsdale (£4.8m) on 2.8%.

With the Blades facing Leicester and Southampton in Gameweeks 11 and 12 and Slave Bilic’s Baggies preparing to face Callum Wilson‘s (£6.5m) Newcastle and Manchester City between now and Gameweek 13, Fantasy managers are more likely to be watching how poor the respective defences are tonight rather than looking for specific assets to scout.

West Bromwich Albion XI (5-3-2): Johnstone; Townsend, Bartley, Ivanovic, Ajayi, Furlong; Gallagher, Sawyers, M Pereira; C Robinson, Grant.

Sheffield United XI (3-5-2): Ramsdale; K Bryan, Egan, Basham; Lowe, Fleck, Norwood, Berge, Baldock; McBurnie, Burke.

    Hey guys. Was overwhelmed by the amount of support last week for the first FPL Live! on Friday. Thank you so much. The second stream for Gameweek 10 is starting right now, feel free to drop by and see if it’s your cup of tea. Those that did had a right laugh and we ended up going for 7 hours last time round (will only be an hour or two this time!):

    We got to 50 viewers at one point last week and I’m humbled. Thanks again and maybe see a few of you in today’s stream. I also want to say thank you to my friend Yung who posted without me knowing about the stream.

    Those of you that are sceptical I am happy to give you a little background on myself and FPL: Top finishes – 18th FPL, 25th Sky, 2nd Mirror, 71st Daily Mail and 1st UFPL Monthly (for proof go check out the media section on my Twitter https://twitter.com/SpearmintSpaff).

    We also predicted both DCL and Bruno captaincy top picks last stream!

    TL:DR – I play too much FPL, come check me out on Twitch as we react to GWK 10 live.
