Gameweek 27 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues with Leeds United v Tottenham Hotspur, which gets underway at Elland Road at 12:30 GMT.

Looking at ownership figures among the top 10,000 FPL managers, the second and third-most-popular captaincy options of the Gameweek are involved in this fixture.

Son Heung-min and Harry Kane are backed with the armband by just over 10% and 5% of these Fantasy managers respectively, a long way short of the number that captained Wout Weghorst.

Both Son and Kane unsurprisingly start this afternoon and are part of a Spurs side showing two changes from the midweek defeat at Burnley.

Harry Winks replaces the injured Rodrigo Bentancur in midfield, while Matt Doherty comes in for Emerson Royal at right wing-back.

Sergio Reguilon has to again be content with a place on the bench, while Lucas Moura misses out altogether with a reported injury.

Leeds also make two changes from the side that got thrashed by Liverpool on Wednesday, with Robin Koch and Diego Llorente brought into the side after injury.

Mateusz Klich and Rodrigo are benched as a consequence, with Stuart Dallas taking up a more advanced role in midfield.

GAMEWEEK 27 LINE-UPS

Leeds United XI: Meslier, Ayling, Llorente, Struijk, Firpo, Koch, Raphinha, Dallas, Forshaw, Harrison, James.

Subs: Roberts, Klaesson, Rodrigo, Gelhardt, Cresswell, Summerville, Klich, Shackleton, Kenneh.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Doherty, Winks, Hojbjerg, Sessegnon, Kulusevski, Son, Kane.

Subs: Reguilon, Sanchez, Emerson, Rodon, Bergwijn, Austin, White, Scarlett, Devine.

    How the f was that not a penalty?

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Hand was by his side, where do you want him to put it

      1. Kodap
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Bollocks

        1. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          It’s a natural position for most blokes I suppose

    2. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      The rules

      1. Kodap
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Surely an unnatural position no?

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Deflected off his thigh

    3. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Ball to hand after it came up off his thigh rather than hand to ball I'd guess

  4. SINGH
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Son not doing anything. He is finished as a footballer now and should only be a sub going forward. No threat.

    1. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Nobody bite.

    2. STONEROSES
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Are you 3 years old?

    3. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Should retire imo

  5. threeputt
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    what would have happened had Leeds scored before Var decides a penalty ? Advantage ?

  6. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Two FPL enigmas come up against eachother next GW...

    Leeds' inability to defend anything or anyone vs Digne's inability to get points vs anyone!

    The moveable object vs the resistable force, who wins out?

    1. Nanoelektronicar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Digne 2 assist but concedes 3 goals. Is that a win?

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        OG to cancel out an assist, plus a YC!

    2. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Leeds, Villa will in 5-1 and digne will get booked

      1 pointer

      1. Nanoelektronicar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Lucas binary code Digne

    3. Hairy Potter
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      If Digne is on free kicks or corners, I'd fancy him to get an assist with how poor Leeds look defending set pieces at the minute.

  7. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    No Son points at all please.

    1. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Behave

    2. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      With you on that David

  8. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Let's go Son! Do something!

  9. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Raphinha looking like Raphinha again.

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes, should have kept on FH.

  10. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Son basically being used as a decoy to bring ayling out of the defence

    1. Rosey Palmer
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Brilliant off the ball running by Son, dragged the defenders away for two of the goals. Most people won't see it when looking for FPL points.

  11. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    If it was Mourinho or Nuno this was going to be 3-3

  12. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    LiveFPL not updating for anyone else?

    1. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Nope, just came on to ask same

    2. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Leagues is

    3. Josh.E
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      same here, desperate to see my rank after that kane beauty

  13. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    @OptaJoe - Leeds are only the second side in Premier League history to concede 3+ goals in five consecutive matches in the competition, after Sunderland in November 2005.

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      What a team that was !!!

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Anthony Le Tallec

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I miss Mick McCarthy.

    It’s like the BT commentators have never watched Leeds before

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      (Twice in 2 minutes)

      "I actually think Spurs having to play counter attacking suits them"

  15. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    BT Sport commentator:
    "Half time. Leeds 3, Tottenham nill."

    1. Nanoelektronicar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      He knows that it's always about how many Leeds concedes.

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      My team link was wrong. Kane might have broken my Christmas curse now !

  16. el polako
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    C'mon Kane(c) grab another one my son in case Bratwurst goes mental.

    1. Eze Really?
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Boerewors?

  17. EL tridente
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Come on Raph get a goal or assist

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Be lucky if he just gets a cross to a teammate the way he's passing

  18. The Reptile
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Was looking at Kulu all week then bottled it and got in Son with multiple hits..

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Was looking at him too and for some reason decided Pogba was a better punt.

      I dunno either 😆

  19. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    LEE is such a shambles right now... I think Bielsa has lost it

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      He needs better players

      1. El Presidente
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        True, but needs to defender better with the ones he has as well. It's not out of the realm of reality to do it. But for that to happen he needs to change the way thay play and that's where I think he's missing the big picture. And he's going to get sacked because of that.

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Agree. Not looking good atm

  20. Shultan
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    So how many goals are Leeds going to concede in 2nd half?
    My guess another 2

    1. Nanoelektronicar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      That's floor, ceiling is 4.

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      If I’m completely honest, minimum another 3 - I’ve never been quite seen anything like it

  21. The Final Boss
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    If we know moura was out, would we go for kulu instead of a Utd mid in fh? Still no right ?

    1. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Hindsight (C)

  22. Cruyff's Eleven
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Coutinho (C) next week...

    Laughing 😎

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Torn between him and Saiss

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Ramsey (C) I’m thinking!

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Probably this. Cout too slow.

        1. Cruyff's Eleven
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          He's playing Leeds...

          Too slow 🙂

  23. threeputt
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    I'll try again now we've got a break as I'm interested:

    what would happen if say Leeds scored before Var decides a penalty for a handball 2 mins before the goal ? Advantage ?

    1. Tanaka'd
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes, goal stands

      1. threeputt
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        thanks, I googled it and I think the following applies:

        "If the goal was scored by the team who should be awarded a penalty, the goal should be awarded. This is standard officiating practice in the case of an advantage to the attacking team"

  24. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Wow this could end up being any score line! Excited Kane Kapper!

  25. Wirtzel Gummidge
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Back down to Earth today ,
    Last week 84 from one player,

    This week already 3-0;Spurs and no Son involvement.

  26. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Worth -4 to play Cout (SOU, lee) over Cancelo (MUN), Livra (avl, NEW) or Dennis (ARS, wol)?

    1. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Dennis (C) in GW 29!

  27. Malcolm Tucker for England …
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    time to give Son and Kane a rest, Conte

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Non owner spotted!

      1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        very much so!

  28. Follyfarmer
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Doherty essential.

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      My condolences

    2. threeputt
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      certainly more essential than Reguilon

    3. L'Aeroplanino
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      18/19?

  29. Will Kane
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Leeds may as well sack Bielsa now and give someone 12 games to at least try and save the season. 100% down if he stays and doubt he'll stay for another season in the Championship anyway

  30. Nanoelektronicar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Leeds victims of their own punching above their weight last season. Add Bamford and Phillips on top of it, Raphinha doing what is doing, this side is relegation material.

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I think it’s more opponents have adapted and know what to expect now
