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.

        1. TRIPOS TOPPER
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          weird

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Because Arsenal's goal of the month was a penalty.

            There were no other options to choose from.

            1. have you seen cyan
              • 4 Years

      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Surprisingly only a small red arrow so far, with 3/10 players to go - Podence Martinez Coufal.

      Who’s everyone got left after this game? I’m most fearful of Vardy/Grealish

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Vardy, Grealish, Watkins and Coufal for me.

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

        Vardy and Grealish for me

      3. Huddersfield
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Martinez Grealish Vardy C

    16. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
