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.

    1) Would you give Mbeumo and Toney last chance vs Newcastle?

    2) Would you keep Havertz against Lei or just get rid?

    1. FantasyClub
      • 3 Years

      I’ve got both Mbeumo and Toney, and I’m looking at getting rid of at least one, most likely Mbeumo

      1. Atimis
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Mbeumo is better one tbh

        1. FantasyClub
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          More options in midfield though. I don’t want to have a non playing striker

          1. Atimis
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            There is no logic in it

            1. FantasyClub
              • 3 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              I’d much rather have Gallagher for one example over him

    2. DARE TO BISCAN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      If all 3 were starters, I'd swap Mbuemo to a better mid. Toney reprieve for Newcastle, then see.

    Owning Saka has been so frustrating. Feels like he's been close to returns often, just know when I sell he'll haul

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years

      I’m getting rid, been telling myself the same thing for past three weeks ESR killing me

    Very bold Arsenal!

    1. Duke Silver ☑

      Same old Arsenal... 😆

  4. Cok3y5murf

    2 years, 5 months ago

    The only Spurs asset that looked worth considering is Reguilon. Enjoy the international break.

  5. jackruet

    Son can wait. Welcome to my team again jota. This time Don't miss the open net

      Irrelevant points.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Not at all! Plenty in my league took captain punts elsewhere

        1. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          2 in my league (c) Aubameyang

          1. Salah’s Sonnet
            • 12 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Lmao the pain!

      2. DARE TO BISCAN
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Not at all. Plenty whining about Auba(c). Every village has one.

  7. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Auba, Saka, Teirney > Antonio, ESR, Trent -8

    Need to clear the trash

    1. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Thinking similar, but with Vardy Sarr Saka > Wilson Son ESR

  8. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who is the best striker sub 6.5m?

    Best to just get broja and use as a sub..?

    Slim pickings.....Armstrong? Thanks

    1. DARE TO BISCAN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Probably Broja as 2nd sub.

    Penalty saves amazing when you have then
    5 points and seems to guarantee 2 or 3 bonus
    Can't remember the last I had one in my starting team though!

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Had 2 penalty saves on my benchboost last year!

    2. 2999 - Lady of Legend
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Too much reward for a penalty save! Fabianski got one with max bonus, for basically fielding a back pass, the pen was that poor!

  10. Grounderz

    2 years, 5 months ago

    Conte barely had a week of full training with the team. I'd say not too bad for Spurs' last two games, including against Vitesse. Let's wait for the IB to be over and then re-assess Spurs assets.

    1. JONALDINHO
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      2 weeks training over IB. Expect them to come out better against Leeds

  11. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Damn it Aubameyang

    The ultimate troll. Misses a penalty when captained the other week over Salah to block a double digit haul.

    Then misses today too =[

    He’s being added to the never again list.

  12. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Any chance of a Salah 2 pointer??

    1. dshv
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      2 goals ..

    2. DARE TO BISCAN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Anything is possible

  13. TheTinman
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Emerson Royal is worse than Walker, Trippier, Aurier, Doherty and Tanganga

    What a waste of money!

    1. Berkshire Hafaway-Line
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      ...cool name though

  14. Gandalf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Makes it easier to keep Ronaldo away to Watford seeing Kane/Son today

  15. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Moyes never got a proper chance with United when you compare it to the amount of time Ole has been given.

    1. jackruet
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Moyes knew only one thing. Cross to fellaini

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        😆

      2. DARE TO BISCAN
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Imagine if Fellaini was Ronaldo though. That'd work.

  16. Random Name
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Arsenal 3 points ahead of title challengers man utd

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      😆 they will finish the season much further ahead than that.

    2. DARE TO BISCAN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Are you that guy that said Arsenal would be ahead of LFC, because they finished 8th last season? I think you are, I remember the sunnies

  17. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    If Reguillon had scored that chance. Oh what could have been.

  18. 2999 - Lady of Legend
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    White bonus 🙂 could have given him a sneaky assist too

  19. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Match winner in the Arsenal game gets no bonus, nonsense system

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Absolute joke

  20. sunzip14
    • 7 Years

    Sell first:

    A) Auba,
    B) Vardy

  21. dshv
    • 6 Years

  22. Ci Siamo
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who is most likely to be nailed for Spurs with less threat of losing place?

    a) Reguillon

    b) Emerson Royale

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      A

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Reg.

      Doherty a bigger threat that Bavies being moved to LWB.

    WC rough with the smooth so far… mixed bag
    Sold Sanchez for Ramsdale, but also got Foster… on bench
    Raph to ESR… not much in it
    Went Chilwell over James…

    My gameweek is relying on a huge week from Antonio, everyone has Trent & Salah (c) so makes little to no difference

    Over to you, Salah(c) Trent Jota. Please don’t fail Jota, or the WC has been more bad than good
