Kane aiming to extend eight-game run without a blank as Rodon starts in defence

Perhaps the most eagerly anticipated fixture of the weekend sees Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur clash at Stamford Bridge.

Kick-off in west London is at 16:30 GMT.

There are no real surprises in terms of team news, with both managers making just one change apiece from the sides they sent out in Gameweek 9.

Frank Lampard’s sole alteration was widely anticipated, with Thiago Silva (£5.5m) replacing Antonio Rudiger (£4.5m) at the heart of the Blues’ defence.

The fit-again Christian Pulisic (£8.2m) is back among the substitutes, alongside Kai Havertz (£8.3m).

Jose Mourinho’s only tweak to his line-up was an enforced one and also comes at centre-half, with Toby Alderweireld (£5.4m) ruled out with a groin problem.

Premier League rookie Joe Rodon (£5.0m) gets the nod over Davinson Sanchez (£5.3m) to partner Eric Dier (£4.9m).

There is plenty of interest in this one from a Fantasy Premier League perspective, with Harry Kane (£10.9m) and Son Heung-min (£9.5m) the second and third most-owned players in the game.

Five of Chelsea’s starting XI, including three of their back four, also boast double-digit ownerships, with Ben Chilwell (£6.1m) the most popular option among that quintet.

Kane was, in fact, the most-sold forward of Gameweek 10, with just over 200,000 Fantasy managers offloading the England international despite his impressive run of form: not since the opening weekend has the Spurs striker blanked.

Chelsea XI: Mendy, James, Zouma, Thiago Silva, Chilwell, Kante, Kovacic, Mount, Ziyech, Abraham, Werner.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Aurier, Rodon, Dier, Reguilon, Hojbjerg, Sissoko, Ndombele, Bergwijn, Son, Kane.

    Dammit Ziyech.

    Though that said, that would’ve hurt having brought in Cancelo rather than Chilwell

  8. Flair
    • 3 Years

    One 90 minute Spurs counter is all it takes.

    Commentator keeps comparing Ziyech to Mahrez because they're both from North African countries 😆

    1. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Ziyech far from convincing today

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

        Still had more opportunities than Kane and Son combined

  15. Peter Ouch
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years

  16. Flair
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

          • 5 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          They will score but not as the other heavy hitters.
          Spurs are drying up of ideas

  19. g40steve

  21. FER FUSCH AKE
    • 7 Years

    Chillwell on top mounting the baps

  22. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Pulisic coming on and I get the hint it’s for Ziyech

  23. Londongeezaa
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    On a scale of 1-10 how boring is this game?

    1. JBG
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      100 and I'm not even watching any more.

    2. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Either 11 or -3 depending on which is worse on your scale

    Dear Mr Mourinho

    As an owner of Kane and Son’s services, I should be grateful if you would now instruct your team to score some goals.

    If you have any queries, please let me know.

    Kind regards

  26. Flair
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Chilwell on 3BPS, James on 1.

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

      Please stay this way

    2. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
      • 7 Years

  27. EmreCan Hustle
    • 11 Years

  28. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    well whats clear is Chelsea and Spurs are happy to take draws against any top rivals, both scared to concede

    1. Chenku╰☆╮
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      This is good for man city.

  29. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    James doing well in BPS despite YC

  30. Chenku╰☆╮
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I can't believe chilwell is bossing baps when James delivers so many quality crosses

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      YC is the clue.

      1. Chenku╰☆╮
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        That's -3 or something?

      2. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Not even a YC as well, but unfortunate

        1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          *bit

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      James has a yellow, speaks volumes for his skills that he is still in the baps. He is better then Chilwell, hence why I have both as I coudlnt decide between them
