The final two fixtures of Gameweek 14 take place this evening – Tottenham Hotspur v Brentford at 19.30 GMT, followed by Manchester United v Arsenal 45 minutes later.

Antonio Conte make two changes from the 2-1 win over Leeds United in Gameweek 12, with Davinson Sanchez (£4.5m) and Oliver Skipp (£4.5m) coming in for Japhet Tanganga (£4.3m) and Harry Winks (£4.4m), both of whom drop to the bench.

That means Harry Kane (£12.3m) – who has scored just one goal in 11 league appearances this season – leads the line, with Son Heung-min (£10.4m) and Lucas Moura (£6.4m) flanking him either side.

As for Brentford, they are unchanged from their 1-0 win over Everton on Sunday, with Sergi Canos (£5.5m), Christian Norgaard (£5.0m) and Rico Henry (£4.5m) all recovering from knocks to keep their place in the starting XI.

Thomas Frank’s side have lost just one of their six away matches this season, and will move into the top half of the table with a win tonight.

Elsewhere, Man Utd make three changes from their Gameweek 13 draw at Stamford Bridge, with Harry Maguire (£5.4m), Diogo Dalot (£4.4m) and Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.3m) replacing Eric Bailly (£4.9m), Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£5.2m) and Nemanja Matic (£4.5m).

At Arsenal, Gabriel Martinelli (£5.2m) starts in place of Bukayo Saka (£6.3m), who is a substitute, while Mohamed Elneny (£4.4m) comes in for Albert Sambi Lokonga (£4.8m).

    Kane cappers unite!

    1. Ibralicious
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Brave

      1. tbos83
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        And probably stupid. I've slid 300k in the last 24hrs because of it...

        1. Ibralicious
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 13 days ago

          And you can slide 300k in the other direction in the next 2

    2. Dammit_182
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Good Luck to you all. I went TAA and lost 300K too. Most people have 2+ players tonight and auto subs to come too. Was the wrong week to not back salah (and I knew it the moment the deadline went).

  3. Ibralicious
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Lads, can I get some quick thoughts on the best move here?

    Sanchez
    TAA - Cancelo - Rüdiger - Reguilón
    Salah - Raphinha - ESR - Gallagher
    Ronaldo - Vardy

    (Steele - Livramento - McArthur* - Scarlett*) - 2 FT - 0.6 ITB

    A) Raphinha + Rüdiger -> B. Silva + Alonso
    B) Raphinha + Scarlett -> 4.4 + Dennis (allowing me to do Livramento -> R. James next week)

    Cheers!

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      B

    2. yeahbuddy
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Can you do just Raphina to B.Silva?
      Otherwise B, as long as you're happy to be locked into 4-3-3

      1. Ibralicious
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Nope, need the 0.1 from Alonso :/

      2. Ibralicious
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Also, the back 5 of TAA - Cancelo - James - Rüdiger - Reguilón would mean 5-2-3 or 5-3-2 w/ Dennis rotating most weeks

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      There isn't that much between James and Alonso, so A is better. Plans have huge injury and illness risks these days.

  4. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Who you reckon wins the battle tonight?

    A) Me- Kane Mbuemo

    B,) Rival- Toney Son

    1. Ibralicious
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      A for me but stranger things have happened

      1. HurriKane
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Lets see. Im not so confident tbh

    2. Cheeky Onion
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Personally, I'm really pulling for your rival

      1. HurriKane
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Boo hoo. Hate you

    3. ZimZalabim
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      absolute coin toss

    4. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      B, I hope. And sorry, nothing against you but I also have B.

      1. HurriKane
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Dont be bias mate 😉

    5. Bennyboy1907

      49% A
      51% B

    c) son+vardy -> jota/bernardo+kane

  6. Lucky Z
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Can you guess whose description on FPL it is?

    Left the club by mutual consent - Unknown return date

    Odd statement why there should be a return date for someone who LEFT the club?

    1. Ibralicious
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Siggurdson?

      1. Lucky Z
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        No

    2. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Sigurdsson / Mendy?

      1. Lucky Z
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Neither. Difficult one to guess frankly

      2. Lucky Z
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        I think both were susoended by club

    3. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Winston Reid

      1. Lucky Z
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Bingo!

      2. JONALDINHO
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        What a guess…

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 13 days ago

          I wish...

          Just fast fingers 🙂

      3. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Man City's Mendy: suspended by club

        Leicester's Mendy and Everton's Sigurdsson: not included in 25-man squad for the season

        West Ham's Reid: left by mutual consent

    4. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Certain Spanish player who has been sky blue

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Has something similar to what is written when match is over

      2. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Nope, I was wrong 🙁

  7. Babit1967
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Cmon Kane, Moura and Toney, please score lots of goals

  8. Cheeky Onion
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Who scores most today: Kane, Son or Reguilon. Hoping for Son but fear it might be Reguilon

    1. pauloc677
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Brentford will win 1-0

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        I wish!

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Hoping for Kane, fearing Son

  9. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Which option to improve my bench?

    A) Sissoko to Bilva
    B) Broja to Watkins

  10. Hazardous1983
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Start dennis smith rowe or livramento

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Smith Rowe

    1. brianutd-why always we? 20
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      No Saka

    2. dark91
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      VdB back to the bench!!!
      This guy must leave

      1. brianutd-why always we? 20
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Greenwood must be gutted too

        1. dark91
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 13 days ago

          At least Greenwood got more than enough minutes this season so far until he started playing a bit too selfish. Unlike Van de Beek

    3. cruzex
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      No bissaka?

    4. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Night has just peaked for CR7 owners

    5. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Sim Simma gone missing

  14. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Son and Toney goals. Arsenal clean sheet. Kane blank. I’m not asking for much FPL gods

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      I want everyone to blank if possible

      1. Zalk
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        1-1 in both games, 4 own goals. Lets make it happen

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 13 days ago

          Please

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Kane hattie, son blank and red, Arsenal concede, Ronaldo blank please!

    3. BeWater
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      I need all of these myself 🙂

    4. brianutd-why always we? 20
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Kane double, Arsenal clean sheet will be fine

    5. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Wanting:
      Toney goal
      Ronaldo goal
      Reguilon CS
      Ramsdale CS
      ESR goal

      Bit of conflict there!

  15. BeWater
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Ben White attacking return would be most welcome tonight.

  16. MikeS
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Tonight will be the night son and kane explode, mark this comment!

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      They really won’t

      1. MikeS
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Watch and see!

    2. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      I'll pray for their souls

  17. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Italic is a great bench cover...

    1. james 101
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Tarpaulin works too

      Or you could just stain it with ronseal or something

  18. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    I heard Conte say Poocee in his pre match interview 😆

  19. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Ronaldo is going to score a brace. I knew it was early to sel to Lukaku and did it anyway. Waiting for punishment now…

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Game has 0-0 written all over it

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        I think not

    2. MikeS
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      I can definitely see Ronaldo scoring

    3. Ibralicious
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Seeing your username, you should be ashamed of that transfer

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        12.4m rotation risk. It was a rush of blood to the head and made in anger. I’m ashamed…

    4. WVA
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Hattrick

  20. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Results tonight: Holjberg goal Spurs win 1-0 no assist.
    1-1 Mata and Ordegard goals

  21. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Kane Esr and Toney. Do me proud.

  22. Ginkapo FPL
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Who played CM for Spurs last season? It was better than this

  23. BeWater
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Kane and Son had 65 attacking returns between them last season. They are on 8 so far this season. They've got some catching up to do.

  24. Randaxus
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    They are really putting on a show being the game at Tottenham.

    1. Randaxus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      before the game*

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Liked that view from above

  25. Drexl Spivey
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Arsenal's bench looks tip-top.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      A very expensive bench too 😆

      1. MikeS
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Not as expensive as the crap on and off manures bench

    2. Randaxus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      United are desperate for a win, imagine if they lose like 4-0 haha

  26. Pringle
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    Why do so many want to take Raphina out now before a great fixture?

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Because the fixtures after are poo and people want to catch price rises.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Because he'd be going next GW anyway and they want to get ahead on their new buy?

      Raphinha was very lucky to get points on Tuesday, he's missing Bamford badly!

    3. Randaxus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Also he was super lucky as the 3rd penalty taker.

    4. Threat Level Midnight
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Because they are clueless. Clearly.

    5. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Good question. Capable if scoring in 'tricky fixtures' too. Pool and Chelsea 3/6 CS, City 2/6.

    6. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Because they actually saw the match

    7. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Might as well hold him for now

  27. Tommo1212

    https://twitter.com/utdreport/status/1466488501659213826?s=20

    Injury or just an excuse for purely awful form ?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      See when Ralf 'officially' picks his teams, AWB will not be his type of player.

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        Well that will be good for them for a start.

    2. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 13 days ago

      Has to be some sort of elaborate joke. You can't miss a game because someone stood on your hand.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 13 days ago

        People missed games for less

  28. Threat Level Midnight
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 13 days ago

    AZ hops on here and gives s**t advice. "I would definitely put Gilmour ahead of Dennis on my bench"

    1. Randaxus

      He also didn't get Jota because he is "not explosive" and they with his tail between his legs he got him after he scores a brace.

      You can't make your own decisions?

        Where did I say I didn't make the decision? Reading is optional, and I guess it is hard too for you?

        Simply stating someone who is held in such high regard gave very poor insight. My decision was already made, TBF

      Gilmour lol, no way he said that. Do people even remotely follow football in this place, see how Watford played recently they were always gonna take the game to Chelsea. Expecting them to score vs city as well

          Don’t get ur knickers in a twist, it’s not our fault you made a terrible decision. You should watch some football, might learn a bit 🙂

      Most of the pundits don't give good original advice. If they were giving good advice every week people would just check the articles and there'd be very little article posting traffic to be snared by betting clickbait. Doesn't mean they don't know their stuff.
