The third and final Premier League match of the day is a big one from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) point of view, with interest spiking in Tottenham Hotspur players in the run-up to Gameweek 29.

Spurs are one of just two sides who ‘double’ in the current Gameweek and then have a top-flight fixture going ahead in Blank Gameweek 30, so there was no surprise that four of the most-bought FPL assets of Gameweek 29 are on the Lilywhites’ books.

PlayerTeamTransfers In (GW29)
SakaArsenal844,593
KulusevskiSpurs764,031
DohertySpurs587,595
KaneSpurs560,579
SonSpurs325,512

All the key Spurs targets start this evening as Antonio Conte makes just one change to the side that hammered Everton on Monday.

It’s an enforced one, too, as Sergio Reguilon comes in for the injured Ryan Sessegnon at left wing-back.

There is a bit more explaining to do with the Manchester United teamsheet, which shows five changes from last weekend’s derby.

Bruno Fernandes misses out with illness but goalkeeper David de Gea starts, despite some Covid-related drama earlier in the day.

“Bruno is ill, unfortunately. He couldn’t train yesterday and is therefore not available for the game. Hopefully, he will be back for Tuesday but, today, he is out.

“David had, to start with, a positive Covid test but, in the end, it turned out to be a false test. We did another test after that and it was negative so that is why he can play.” – Ralf Rangnick

Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo are back in the United side after missing the 4-1 defeat to Manchester City.

GAMEWEEK 29 LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Maguire, Pogba, Ronaldo, Rashford, Fred, Varane, Dalot, Sancho, Telles, Matic.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Doherty, Reguilon, Romero, Hojbjerg, Son, Kane, Dier, Kulusevski, Bentancur, Davies.

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

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

  18. Baps Hunter

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

  22. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Left him 2nd on my bench in my draft team.

    Never knew Tom Brady was a Man Utd fan.

  23. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Son keeps sliding about.

  24. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Son has been appalling

  25. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Son new boots needed

  26. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Taxi for Son

    1. One More Hit
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Having doubts about bringing him in on FH. Least we’ve another game to assess

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

        Can bail out of FH? If not I would target differentials.

  29. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Man Utd play well when only one of Fernandes or Ronaldo plays. Does the manager have the balls to do it though?

  30. Neevesy
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Think we can put to bed the the BS 'United are poor cus of Ronaldo' now.
