Antonio starts for West Ham as Reguilón returns to Spurs line-up

Michail Antonio (£6.6m) returns to the West Ham line-up as they host Spurs in Double Gameweek 25.

The forward missed the most recent Premier League outing, a 3-0 win over Sheffield United, with fatigue but is looks to be back to full fitness.

Antonio leads the line in today’s London derby with Jesse Lingard (£5.9m), Pablo Fornals (£5.9m) and Jarrod Bowen (£6.0m) in attacking midfield.

With Tomas Soucek (£5.3m) and Declan Rice (£4.7m) in defensive midfield, the only other notable piece of team news is a second successive start at centre-back for Issa Diop (£4.3m).

He continues to fill in with Angelo Ogbonna (£4.9m) recently sustaining an ankle injury.

There will be plenty of attention on the Spurs team today too.

Harry Kane (£11.1m) and Son Heung-min (£9.5m) will both be under the Fantasy microscope for those considering how to set their teams up for Double Gameweek 26.

Spurs face Burnley (home) and Fulham (away) in the next round, offering one of the kindest Double Gameweek schedules.

Elsewhere, Japhet Tanganga (£4.9m) retains his right-back berth and there is a surprise return at left-back for Sergio Reguilón (£5.5m).

Double Gameweek 25 Line-ups

West Ham United XI: Fabianski; Cresswell, Diop, Dawson, Coufal; Rice, Soucek; Lingard, Fornals, Bowen; Antonio.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris; Reguilon, Dier, Sanchez, Tanganga; Højbjerg, Ndombele; Son, Lamela, Moura; Kane.

    Keeping Son as a differential in my ML has killed me where others have had Maddison/Grealish and spread funds. Can’t wait to ship him until Mourinho is gone.

      Contemplating Kane over Son now if I have either

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)

      Yeah been absent today.

    Nothing for Kane but glad to have him, he finds the corner twice on another day with his chances

    1. JBG
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Spurs best player imo. Not his fault the defence is all over the place and his supporting attacking players are playing like blind mice (bar Bale).

    For GW26 consideration only:

    A) Barnes + DCL
    B) Son + Bam

    1. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Sid1891

  4. JBG

    Son has been bad.. Alli useless as some people have written here.

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Alli is on the bench for a reason.

  5. jonnybhoy

    Antonio and Pope on my bench with more points than my whole team. Fantastic.

    1. Kellz86
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Sold Antonio for Ings this week was my move

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Same here but for -4 🙁

  6. Kellz86
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    So is Lingard actually an option?

  7. Ozzy smith
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    7 played 7 blanks lovely stuff.

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years

      Ouch...

    2. Nomar

      This season of FPL summed up in one sentence.

  8. Gizzachance
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Have gundo, Sterling, cancelo
    Don’t have high hopes of them starting!
    Gundo a doubt, others played both dgw games thoughts?

    1. Kellz86
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling I think plays, fingers crossed at least

      1. Gizzachance
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yep, fingers crossed

    2. Tambling5
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      If Stones Cancelo or Sterling don't play then I get Digne's points, so I'm quite relaxed about Pep today!

  9. Bounce
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Another spineless performance from The Boring One.

  10. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Everyone still going balls deep into Kane for DGW26 then?

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah I'm getting him for -4 and putting TC on him.

  11. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Smash and grab from West Ham

  12. Saka_me_sideways
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    GW rank of 3.8mil and I still have a green arrow 😆 says a lot about the gw.

  13. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Benched Kane today. AMA.

  14. Arteta
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Piss off Antonio.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      ???

      1. Arteta
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Useless for 3 out of 4 games, now he goes and does this. Moyes and his comments didn't help with my decision making as well.

    2. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Need 9 points from Ings on Tuesday to break even.

    3. Tambling5
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Poor chap!

    4. Tinkermania
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I know right. He should have thought about your fAnTaSy team

  15. Von Lipwig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Whoops, forgot to include the hit...
    For GW26 consideration only:

    A) Barnes + DCL -4
    B) Son + Bam

  16. Pukki Blinders
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Lingard the man with 1 shot all game and 0 chances created... truly inspirational for a number 10 right?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      In the end it was still the match winner.

    2. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Didn’t do anything except 1 goal which was luckily created

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Was the same with his brace last time, 2 lucky goals and he’s singing from the rooftops

    3. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Clinical!

    4. Tinkermania
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I didn't watch the game but his is the 'kind' that receives unwarranted hate.

    5. FourLokoLeipzig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He was good today. One of those times the stats don’t tell the story

  17. seewhyaxe
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I have 0 returns so far from my players whom played.

    1. A. PRISE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Same here. Nine players!!

  18. @persecuted_by_mods
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Kane owners that was insanely unlucky, Son owners like myself deserve nothing but the blank, he was awful coufal locked him off

      1. dshv
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I am on son too.. now that feeling

    • Liberate HK - antichinazi
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

    • Custard Gannet
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      7 played and still no score higher than 2.
      What is this GW??

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Pope with 8 looking like a haul atm.

        1. Custard Gannet
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Laughing at me from the bench...

    • bros
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      WC &'TC still in tact.
      Would you WC this team?

      Ederson
      Mee Stones Digne
      Fernandes Gundogan Son Salah
      DCL Bamford Ings

      McCarthy Raphina Tarkoski Alioski
      Or, Was thinking if not wild carding bring in Kane for Ings and 4.1 in for Tarkoski

    • JBG
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      My attacking players have returned as much as Areola and Lowton. Great GW this. Bruno left.

    • HonestBlatter
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Who are you bringing in from Spurs DGW? Son or Kane (C)?

      1. DycheDycheBaby
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I think Kane may be enough

      2. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Kane triple captain

      3. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Neither. Spurs are rubbish and don’t deserve the armband

      4. @persecuted_by_mods
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Harry 'ya just got kaned' Kane

        • Maeki2
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          none tbh overvalued

      5. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Anyone looking to bench grealish for dgw26 in order to keep for bgw29?

        Athletic say its shin splints and not as bad as rumoured.

        I can play raphinha who has a single match v villa in 26

        Cant afford son and can't immediately see a grealish replacement who plays in 29 too who I'd want to bring in for a hit.. thanks

      6. SADIO SANÉ

        Raphinha's 4 points almost looking like a haul right now

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years

          Indeed, and not put me off Kane and Son for two easier games if I transfer them in.
