Sunday’s Premier League action continues at the King Power Stadium as Leicester City host West Ham United.

Kick-off is at 16:30 GMT.

David Moyes makes two changes from Gameweek 24, with Manuel Lanzini coming in for Said Benrahma and Issa Diop replacing Kurt Zouma, who was initially named in the starting XI but felt unwell during the warm up.

That means Michail Antonio continues up front, with Jarrod Bowen and Pablo Fornals flanking him.

Meanwhile, Brendan Rodgers recalls Youri Tielemans to his starting XI, along with Caglar Soyuncu, Ricardo Pereira and Harvey Barnes.

Luke Thomas, Marc Albrighton and Ademola Lookman, who all featured at Anfield, are substitutes, whilst Boubakary Soumare misses out.

DOUBLE GAMEWEEK 25 LINE-UPS

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Pereira, Amartey, Soyuncu, Justin, Ndidi, Dewsbury-Hall, Tielemans, Maddison, Barnes, Daka

Subs: Vestergaard, Thomas, Perez, Iheanacho, Lookman, Ward, Mendy, Albrighton, Choudhury

West Ham United XI: Fabianski, Coufal, Dawson, Diop, Cresswell, Rice, Soucek, Bowen, Lanzini, Fornals, Antonio

Subs: Vlasic, Areola, Johnson, Noble, Kral, Fredericks, Benrahma, Yarmolenko, Randolph

    I am bench boosting this lot next week. I have 1FT. Was going to replace Foster with Ramsdale as I think ARS have best chance of clean sheets bus some would see that as a wasted transfer.

    Not sold on the Bruno to Son move as I think Spurs have two hard fixtures and Leeds could be another goal fest game.

    Thoughts?

    Was set on CR7 to Kane for GW26 but maybe keep CR7 and do Martinelli to Saka instead ?

    Is 7 DGW 26 players enough?

    (TAA, Salah, Jota, White, Kane, Dennis, Raphina, also playing Bowen, Cancelo, DDG, Foden or Broja)

    Or FH?

    Hi Lads
    I trust you are all well.
    Just looking for a bit of advice
    Current XI
    Pope
    Tierney, TAA, Cancelo, Coady
    Bowen, Son, Salah, Jota, Raphinha
    Dennis
    Bench : DDG, Maupay, Cash, Watkins
    0 ft 0.4 itb

    Am I g2g?
    Play Maupay for someone?

    Currently thinking TC but I'd like an opinion on BB this team with perhaps Weghorst/JayRod in place of watkins (-4)

    Also thinking Broja for Watkins(-4) and play over coady ?

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated

    The amount of luck in this game is ridiculous. In the Leicester v West Ham game, Stockley Park Var re-wrote the handball rules to produce one of the worst decisions I have ever seen. A massive handball if there ever was one !.

    Was the Stockley park Var Ref an owner of Bowen and Dawson in their FPL team ? It bordered on a joke.

      Sean Dyche admits he needs "wait and see" on Wout Weghorst, who was forced off with an injury. "He’s got a knock so we will see how that settles down." Charlie Taylor could return next weekend, but Gudmundsson and Vydra will be late February.

    Worth bringing Son in still? Not FHing in 27 so would be nice to have him in place for then even if his DGW is a bit naff.
    Would need to find 0.2m in change to get both him and Salah in, would downgrade either Antonio (Weghorst if fit?) or Dawson (Wolves def) to fund this.

      Seen this happen more than once. I believe there are points to be added or deducted for the last minutes of the game. Or maybe they go over the numbers after the game. BAPS are never just confirmed and added to the player right after the final whistle

    Before this GW i was doing everything to fit in Son and Salah for GW26.
    Now the only player id like is Salah, which would give me 5 DGWers
