Vardy and Iheanacho lead Fantasy interest as Leicester host West Brom

Jamie Vardy (£10.1m) and Kelechi Iheanacho (£6.1m) lead the Fantasy Premier League interest as Leicester host West Bromwich Albion in Double Gameweek 32.

The former comes into Thursday’s match owned by 19.9% of managers although he shares the spotlight with his strike partner these days.

Vardyy has just four assists and no goals in his last seven Premier League matches, combining those for a total of 28 points, 4.0 per game.

By comparison, Iheanacho has seven goals and 54 points during his last seven outings, 7.7 per game.

Consequently, the Nigerian international has amassed 17.7% worldwide backing and is even featured in the Blank Gameweek 33 captaincy debate. His performance tonight could play a big part in how many trust Iheanacho with the armband against Crystal Palace on Monday.

Double Gameweek 32’s final match is not without its benchings, Ricardo Pereira (£5.9m) among the substitutes after a reported niggle coming into the match.

Timothy Castagne (£5.7m) and Luke Thomas (£4.1m) are the wing-backs tonight while James Maddison (£7.2m) looks set for a more advanced central midfield role in front of Ayoze Pérez (£6.0m) and Wilfred Ndidi (£4.8m).

West Bromwich Albion are unchanged from the side that beat Southampton in Gameweek 31.

Callum Robinson (£5.2m) and Mbaye Diagne (£6.0m) lead the line with Matheus Pereira (£5.4m), Ainsley Maitland-Niles (£4.6m) and Matt Phillips (£5.1m) in support.

Double Gameweek 32 Line-ups

Leicester City XI (3-4-1-2): Schmeichel; Fofana, Evans, Söyüncü; Thomas, Tielemans, Ndidi, Castagne; Maddison; Iheanacho, Vardy.

West Bromwich Albion XI (4-1-3-2): Johnstone; C Townsend, O’Shea, Bartley, Furlong; Yokuslu; M Pereira, Maitland-Niles, M Phillips; C Robinson, Diagne.

    What's the template move for people that did the template WC31?

    Mendy-Forster
    TAA-Shaw-Rudiger-Holding-Dias
    Salah-Bruno-Son-Lingard-Jota
    Kane-Iheanacho-Davis

    Was planning on using my transfers at this point to get rid of Son and maybe upgrade elsewhere, but the whole Chelsea keeper thing has thrown a wrench in those plans.

    What are others doing?

            But Nacho has blossomed into an incredible player over the last 6 gameweeks... Don't think you'll find many folks arguing against that tbf

            Although "whichever way you slice it" is almost as embarrassing as "I wouldn't sign Vardy for 6.0" right before he notches 5 returns in 4 games...

            You could slice it over a season and say 26 returns to 9 for example?

            That's a fair old spanking alright 😆

    FH hit in GW 35 or 36? That could be a final stage where you can earn solid points on anyone. Have you considering FHing in 35 and building your team more balanced thanks to that?

    Let's consider that Crellins predictions are 100% accurate, would you maximise your points more than people who are building their teams for GW35 and then FHing in GW 36? How popular is thought about FH in GW35 anyway?

        West Ham fans seem to think that Antonio is out for a bit longer.
        I already got in Bowen for Gundogan for GW32, anything against CHE is a bonus, the fixtures afterwards are quite good.

        Bowen not only is OOP atm, but when you watch a compilation of his first 50 goals for Hull you see that he can score poacher goals and is not scared of being in the midst of the action!
