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.

    TG for that Son(c) goal.

    Missed the deadline yesterday. Luckily enough had my bus team in place, but missed my transfer. Still have Ant, Dennis & King up top.

    On the bright side, have 2 transfers going into next week (when I had planned to wc). 😉

    1. Pep bites Kun
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Oh what a bad top of page - cheers mods 🙂

    2. Hazz

      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah, haha. Son was actually good today - just not tasked with a lot of the attacking. Last touch as well, though. Got lucky! (Been on the other end of a last touch Son goal before...)

      Kind of expect Weggy to do at least just as well now, but at least the difference won't be as huge as it could have been.

      1. Pep bites Kun
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Weggy was my transfer in. 2 games, could do some damage. Maybe King will reward me with a pen? Now I'm clutching at straws haha .. onwards we go

  2. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Come on Fpl tower, just give Sonny 1 bap please

  3. Feloh
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    That Kane to Son goal ensures the free hitters win over the non-FH teams.

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Regretting not FHing. Would be on about 40 points instead of 7. Lewis Dunk masterclass needed here.

      1. BobbyDoesNotLook
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Same. Now have Son and Livra so far which is great but would have had also Kane and Forster.

        Ronaldo's one last chance to give parting gift after last week missing sitters against this Leeds.

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Saints CS, Kane haul. Not the best start for me.

          Bruno haul and City destroying everton is gonna finish me off.

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

      WCed both Sonny and Kane in. Captained Bruno though...

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

      It's the first game in a DGW...

    4. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Depends on the players non fhers have. Still too early

    5. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Well, if FH does not win over non-FH then it's ashamed 😛 it has to win ...

    6. HashAttack
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Already had Son and Kane - Think the FH success depends on how MCI do

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

        No, not every non FH has Son PLUS Kane. Actually, it will be the minority for sure

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

      Happy FHer here. Kane+Son+Kulu!
      Wegerhost(c)

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

    Kane(C) pays off yet still could have been loads more but won't complain one bit. Having them against Everton next week feels tasty

  5. Sterling Archer
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Pulling the wc trigger to avoid price rises, need to think who's most likely to rise apart from kane?

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

    BAPs final?

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

      As Kane was dispossessed right at the end so expecting a deduction

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

        I think Kane was in the lead and now both on 49, not sure but I think it is.

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

          Thanks, sure it said 48 prior to it so bit weird. Will be happy with 2 bonus anyway!

    2. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Kane (TOT) (3)
      Doherty (TOT) (3)
      Romero (TOT) (1)

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

        Cheers Freshy, final final?

  7. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Imagine Reggie was playing 😥

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

      Raphinha captainer?

  8. HD7
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    I got Sancho because Sterling was riskier to have on FH. Instead of Pepped... Rangnicked

    Oh well... bow I guess its better I hope he doesnt even need to come up. Livra is waiting.

  9. zon
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Lol got Shaw & Sancho on FH. Here's to hoping one of them won't get minutes off the bench, Livra 8 pointer lurking

    1. HD7
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah, I will hope Sancho doesnt need to come up too.

      1. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Me three, Sancho fail with Livra first bench - can't really see a situation where he doesn't come on for Elanga at about 70

        1. HD7
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Maybe If they win 2-0 by then. Mata can have some rare minutes.
          But its just wishful thinking.
          If Sancho gets half an hour we will hope he gets involved in some goals

  10. Jonesfromthere
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Bloody Son captain

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

      Last touch of the game.

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

    Sold Dier for a hit, Leeds hit the woodwork twice and miss an open goal, Spurs keep their first clean sheet in 11 games. lol

  12. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    A Burnley win and Newcastle United draw would make the league table stark for Leeds United.

  13. Demba Demba
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Any place to watch the 3pm kickoffs?

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

      Other countries 😉

  14. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Rovers win and Son scores! Amazing start to the weekend!

    1. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Glad Son got that goal. The Son non owners already wrote pants here before that

  15. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    non-FH teams wish to see ManU big win

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

    Surprised to read that Salah is captained by 0.81% of the top 10K. That suggests that there are as many as 81 dead teams that high up the OR.

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

      Probably doing vice captain wankery

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

        Risky. Your VC might not play.

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

      Friday deadline, so not sure how dead are they, semi dead

    3. OLEgend
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Or they were busy this week

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

      not really. could have missed friday deadine or just trolling and have actual choice on vice captain

    5. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Probably forgot the Friday kick off

    6. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Probably a big chess tournament

    7. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      You would be surprised how many people in the top10k are actually just complete casuals. The endless spoon feeding from content creators has enabled this

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

        Indeed

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

      No, it's just the usual practical jokers...

  17. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Scout picks on fire.

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      And everyone's just copied them as well. Bad week to not free hit.

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Not exactly copied. The FH template was obvious. Many folks did 1 or 2 different usually to free up cash, but it wasn’t rocket science.

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

        Indeed

  18. WVA
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    How is Kane on 3 BAPS when Doherty has a goal, assist and clean sheet lol, when I captain him and he scores he doesn't even get a single BAP

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

      Because Kane should have had 5 assists.

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Don't own him, but he was a class above. Every single pass he made was spot on. Multiple big chances created.

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

      Super Saints, I watched the game. Honestly, no bias, if 3 bonus was ever deserved it was Kane today.
      He was a different level, insane performance

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

        I could have told you that as my rival captained him.
        Playing well doesn't mean 3 BAPS in FPL though, we've seen that many times.

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

          Yeah but seriously he was flawless, must have created 5+ big chances too which earns BPS, plus winning ball back deep etc.

        2. Mr. O'Connell
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          He's also getting a Davies 5 points off the bench for Dalot

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

          My rival this, my rival that, Kane was another level today, deserved 3 BAPS and I'm a non owner.

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

      Watch games. Kane was ridiculously good today. Other players lose BAPs for all the chances he created (which gives him more BAPs).

    5. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Because I have Kane.

  19. Weeb Kakashi
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    So I see Raphinha was good today.

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

      Very! The only issue with Raphinha is the 10 he has to play with.

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

      He's often good. However he always has muppets around him.

      1. Old Wulfrunian
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Klich is such a bad player.

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      He misses Bambam dearly, would've been better

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

      He was OK, wasted a lot of the ball as well, anonymous in the first half and a lot of poor passes

  20. Firmino
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Any United fans here? What are the chances of Maguire, Shaw, Dalot coming on? Dalot probably has the most chance?

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

      Maybe Maguire if they need to tighten up at the end. The rest I Don see it tbh

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

        And btw, you don't need to be an United fan to produce an opinion/hunch on that

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

      "Who's that team we call United?"

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

    How often does Shaw get subbed on?
    Got Livra waiting patiently to come on

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

      He could get Pogba off and play Telles and Shaw on the left side, but I can't see it. There would be more chance for that if Rashord or Sancho play on the left.

    2. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      When Telles gets injured?

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

        Ok thanks both, hopefully good chance he stays on it then

  22. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Sancho train derailed just when it was starting to look good

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah, not happy about this.

  23. BoleynWin
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    A lot riding on the late kick off today, if City run riot against Everton there could be some huge swings in rank.

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

      Sterling hat trick incoming

      1. FPL_ UP_Down
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        KBD 2 assist and a goal ?

      2. RogDog_jimmy
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Pleeeease

      3. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Went Sancho over bruno so I could afford kdb over Sterling. Lol

  24. Paul Psychic Octopus
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    All English Man U players benched by that stooge Rangnick, apart from the donkey that is AWB.

    A far cry from the great Man U side based around their 'kids'.

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

      Ragnick sided with Portugese clique obviously. AWB turncoat.

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

      Still got two academy players in that XI.

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

      Based around kids. I think it was the likes of Schmeichel, Keane and Cantona, among others, that the team was based around that enabled the kids to be integrated.

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

      None starting for Chelsea the other day either. Not good for the England team.

  25. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Son (c) hardly going to save my -12 hit, now hoping for my differentials to save my GW.

    Nonetheless, I salute you, Kane De Bruyne.

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

      What a player, he’s so good he brings tears to my eyes

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        At least you didn't wet your pants

  26. Vlad Tepes
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Saving FH this week looking terrible, gamble to field 10 players but did not go well, Regulion not starting whats up with that? Will probably get more players with no show. Real gameweek killer

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

      Son and Kane was a success, but Sancho fail. Also, many went for Magure, so I think the FH template is a mixed success atm. City game will be the key.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Same here, saving the last FH and playing with 10. Only 2 games in, GW can still be saved. FH gonna be key much, much later

    3. space mercenary
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes, but on the flip I have FH'd Sancho in as well as Son / Kane so always a chance of branchings despite recent performances. City still to come too. Nervously awaiting the team sheet. Jury still out at the mo.

  27. nerd_is_the_werd
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Kind of wish I went with Weghorst (c) instead of Pope (c), but reckon it will be low-scoring and can benefit from the save points.

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

    Come on Bruno!

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

      Come on Zaha and Coutinho!

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

    Regret of not playing my FH, had 2 left aswell but could field 11 with a -4... annoying because one of the 11 is Dalot who's benched, ew.

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

      Still got it for later on, where you could gain even more than this GW if used wisely.

    2. Firminooooo
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Its a close call. Could also get 11 out for -4, but included Foden who could be benched and players with poor fixtures. Played my 1FH and think its a good call.

  30. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    With KWP as my first sub i don't know if i want Foden to start.
