Kane and Son start as Llorente returns for Leeds

Two Premier League matches kick off at 2pm BST today – Burnley v Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspur v Watford.

At Burnley, Sean Dyche makes just one change as Ashley Westwood (£5.4m) recovers from a toe injury to replace Jack Cork (£4.5m) in the Clarets engine room, while Ashley Barnes (£5.5m) partners Chris Wood (£6.9m) up front.

For Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United, Diego Llorente (£4.5m) returns at centre-half with Junior Firpo (£4.9m) and Mateusz Klich (£5.5m) missing from the matchday squad.

As expected, Patrick Bamford (£7.9m) leads the line, with Raphinha (£6.5m), Rodrigo (£6.4m) and Jack Harrison (£5.9m) supporting him.

Meanwhile, Harry Kane (£12.3m) starts his first Premier League match of the season for Tottenham Hotspur following his mid-week European brace, with Lucas Moura (£6.5m) dropping out of the starting XI.

Moussa Sissoko (£4.5m) is straight into the Watford side to face his former club following his move from Spurs last week, along with Joshua King (£5.5m), Francisco Sierralta (£4.4m) and Juraj Kucka (£5.5m).

    What a rubbish second half.

    Sarr has looked good though

      How has Sissoko looked?

    Just logged in to Sky Fantasy. What is the OVERHAUL DEADLINE its shouting at me about? I last played about seven years ago.

      It's a forced WC for everyone

        Thanks. Doesn't really help me though, my team is doing well.

          Yeah its annoying, it benifits those who picked poorly though

      It's the same as a wildcard unlimited transfers until the next gameweek
      Good luck !

    Skipp is so so good

    Masochist here with Kane (c), he'll definitely be one of my pall bearers so he can let me down one final time!

    1. SEXY SON
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      I knew he would blank, just one of those weeks - possibly my worst ever

  5. SEXY SON

    Desperately need a quickfire brace from Kane

      Oh no it just gets worse 🙁

  7. Licky

    Leeds??

  8. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …

    Bamford goal

  9. Bobby Digital

    Bumford

    Raphinha, where are your goals? Your goals are late.

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      He is so good it hurts

      Will smash many, many times this season

  11. BenDavies
    • 11 Years

    shackleton assist

  12. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Bam bam G

    Raphinha made it but doesn’t get the A 🙁

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      SHOCK

  13. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Raphinha must be one of the most frustrating players in the game. Gets loads of chances but still somehow manages to blank.

    1. FantasyTony
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      He reminds me a lot of Nani actually. Pure class when on but a bit frustrating when off.

    2. Duke Silver ☑
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Lacks composure. Very frustrating player with his obvious ability/potential.

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Just have to have patience with him

      It’s so obvious the returns are there, he’s just too good

  14. Grounderz
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Who assisted Bamford?

    1. ClassiX
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Possibly Shackleton, but deflected off a Burnley leg first, so may not be given.

  15. Duke Silver ☑
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Shackleton assist if anyone gets it.

  16. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Son of a pitch

  17. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Son subbed, wipe out that CS Watford!

  18. Thanos
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Son off

    Ffs Nuno :angry:

  19. dark91
    • 8 Years

    Looks like it is Jammy goals day. Your turn Bruno

  20. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Son off, 10-11 points which I’m happy with but a whole second half to get more and it’s been rubbish.

  21. Licky
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Go on Leeds, steal it!

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Woohoo

  22. Hairy Potter
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    No clean sheet for Burnley. Taylor might be tempting on a WC if he drops in price.

  23. The Knights Template
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Patiently waiting for two more Bamford goals.

  24. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    I know it's Pep, but is Laporte a serious option?

    At 5.5 he's really tempting.

    1. ClassiX
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Stones?

      1. Scots Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Played zero mins so far

    2. OverTinker

      could be stoned anytime

  25. have you seen cyan

  26. g40steve

    Bamford nice differential 🙂

    Where’s the Knight

    1. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Spurs are poor on the eye, can’t see them scoring half as many goals this season but plenty of CS.

      Won’t be owning Kane or Son fir this reason. Nuno is the new George Graham!

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Waiting for two more goals, Sir GSteve40, patiently!

    1. SEXY SON
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      The Southampton game last season voided that theory

      1. Optimus.
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah but that was a leap year 😉
