Iheanacho and Tierney benched as Son and Kane start for Conte in 3-4-3 formation

There are three Premier League matches kicking off at 14:00 BST today – Arsenal v Watford, Everton v Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds United v Leicester City.

Mikel Arteta makes one change from Gameweek 10, as Ainsley Maitland-Niles (£5.3m) comes in for Thomas Partey (£5.0m), who is out with a tight groin.

That means Nuno Taveres (£4.3m) keep his place at left-back, with Kieran Tierney (£4.8m) on the bench, while Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.1m) leads the line alongside Alexandre Lacazette (£8.3m), having scored six goals in five Premier League appearances against Watford.

Claudio Ranieri makes five changes, with Kiko Femenia (£4.4m), Danny Rose (£4.2m), Nicolas Nkoulou (£4.5m), Ozan Tufan (£5.0m) and Emmanuel Dennis (£5.2m) all amongst the starting XI.

At Goodison Park, Antonio Conte takes charge of his first Premier League game as Tottenham Hotspur Head Coach, and sticks with the same XI that beat Vitesse on Thursday.

Rafael Benitez, meanwhile, makes three changes from Gameweek 10, with Lucas Digne (£5.2m), Fabian Delph (£4.4m) and Anthony Gordon (£4.5m) replacing Mason Holgate (£4.2m), Jean-Philippe Gbamin (£4.5m) and Alex Iwobi (£5.8m).

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£8.0m) and midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.4m) remain on the sidelines. 

Elsewhere, Leeds United make just one change, with Adam Forshaw (£4.5m) coming in for Jamie Shackleton (£4.5m), while Brendan Rodgers has benched Kelechi Iheanacho (£7.0m) and James Maddison (£6.7m), with Ademola Lookman (£6.0m) and Harvey Barnes (£6.5m) flanking Jamie Vardy (£10.8m) up front.

  6. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Vardy not scoring here today, is he?

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Absolutely not

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Don't think he'll score again until he's sold by the masses.

    3. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      He hasn’t scored for weeks, why did we get him

    4. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

  8. FCSB
    • 8 Years

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Maybe. Could just bench vs. Chelsea.

      I kinda wanna play 5 defenders, but I also have double Brentford attack which worries me too 😀

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'm selling for Jesus, yes

    3. AIRMILES
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yep. Need the funds for Son.

    4. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years

      See you next gameweek.

  11. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Bench boost would have been useful this week

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      33 Or last week 31

    2. FourLokoLeipzig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yep, I’m on 27 and counting

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      It kind of looked that way on Friday tbf with people's benching decisions.

      1. tiger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I know...I did think about it, but didn't do it

  12. mojoindojo
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Quite frustrating as a Saka and Auba owner...

  13. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    FYI
    Foster ownership: 63.36%
    Foster EO: 1.81%
    97% benched him (rightfully but keeper hauls can be very random)

    1. mojoindojo
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      1 playing keeper is the way.

  14. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Kucka close

  15. Differentiator
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Demarai Gray still a livewire. Not worth selling

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      To be fair, Spurs defence is currently making every decent player look good

  16. Thanos
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Just one of those weeks that happens every week.

    Bought Sanchez + Auba for -8 🙁

    1. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ooh! Rough so far. Sold Raya for Sanchez?

      1. Thanos
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Pickford

        1. Pep bites Kun
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Gotcha! Who's your backup gk?

        2. Pep bites Kun
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          *Decent move. You just hit some bad luck. Take a hit for a nice shiny new gk if you don't have a good backup. Bol!

  17. Salah’s Sonnet
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Foster saved a pen, the GW that keeps on giving lol

  18. Ze_Austin
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Liverpool might skin Arsenal

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      How they've let Watford into this game is crazy, they were terrible before it

  19. OPTA FPL
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Would be ridiculous if Raph scores again and take off shirt then sent off

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'd take it tbf

    2. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I didn't see the message the first time, so I'd like another look 😉

  20. AIRMILES
    • 12 Years

    7. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      103.3

  21. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Aubamayang has been atrocious. Should have had a brace by now.

    Fuming

    1. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      He's a pain in the arse

  22. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Danny Rose still not booked 😆

    1. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Amazing

  23. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    People who have both, playing Ramsdale or Foster next GW? LIV (A) vs. MUN (H)

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

      Foster. Ramsdale definitely conceding more than 2

    2. sandman58
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Both will concede
      Just pick who you reckon will make most saves.... I'd say Ramsdale

    3. Forgetmeknot
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      In circumstances like this you always have to pick the better player/team.

      I should have listened to that advice last week with these two.

  24. 420king

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

  30. Bury94
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Foster, Dias and Livramento on my bench. Looking forward to Antonio's haul to complete the clean sweep of bench points
