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.

    Son can't even put the right studs on let alone get a return.

    Muppet.

    Son = Bambi on Ice

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

      Bambi wasn't this bad.

  3. WVA

    I've cursed Son by bigging him up all week

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

      It's typical of both these teams. So predictably unpredictable.

    2. Wirtzle Gummidge

      Your influence is almost sentient.

  4. Fantasy furball
    • 13 Years

    Son keeps stumbling

  5. JBG

    Son having a real Welbeck ish match tonight.

  6. banskt
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Son needs a new boot sponsor.

    1. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Surely a sending off for Pogba, much more dangerous than some of these high feet challenges that players get sent off for now

  7. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Ronaldo got 67 out of his 117 points in 5 games. He played part in 24 including today.

    1. HashAttack
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      He's got a total of 10 points for the 3 times that I have captained him

    Cristiano Ronaldo has now scored a hat-trick at club level in each of the last 13 calendar years:

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Mind blowing ...

    4. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Loads of hattricks, only his 2nd one at United out 49 of think!

    5. Haalander
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      All about Ronnie that’s all that counts(in his mind at least)

    6. Utopsis
      • 6 Years

      SIUUUUU

    7. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Thanks, we can probably work out what those years are.

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

    Full rest for Emerson ahead of Brighton & West Ham.

    1. TopBinFC
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

  10. PartyTime
    • 4 Years

    No baps for kane?

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

      Certainly doesn’t deserve any

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Great disappointment

    3. JBG
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Maguire getting all the bonus points.

    4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Doesn’t deserve any

    6. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Hahaha… 😆 Bugger off

  11. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    MU is still poor team. Ronaldo is a legend 😉

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Should have gone MCI ... he'll smash all records

  12. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Where did that Bentancur come from? Part of some deal where they add a few crap players?

    1. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Paratici giving Juve cash to buy Vlahovic

  13. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    No bonus for Kane! Love it

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

      It’s ok we’ll take the goal and wait for the Brighton

  14. Fish up a tree
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Spursy we love you!

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

    Doherty was 'marking' Ronaldo for the corner too, yikes!

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

      Should be -2 points 😉

  16. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    The worst thing about FH30 is that I’ll end up with Son GW31

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Son is a great player.

  17. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    3:3 would be perfect for Arsenal. Come on Son!

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

      Think this is fine as well. Can't see United being consistent enough to challenge.

    2. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      No i think it'd win suits them more

      Utd have some tricky games sours have a great run in

  18. Luggy10
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Regullion looks really poor

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

      He’s so weak

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Emerson RWB and Davies LWB next game?

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Yep, I bet Spurs are trying to persuade Madrid to activate his buy-back clause.

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

      Losing all his energy on his hot gf probably:P

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

    Can't see many points for Spurs assets against Brighton. They've set up a beautiful trap v Leeds and Everton. I did Doherty on free, decided not to take a hit for Willock > Kulusevski.

    1. jacob1989
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      they will now beat brighton 0-4, poor bad poor bad...

  20. jacob1989
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    all this result matters is that Arsenal CL spot to lose now.

  21. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Useless Son.

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Just unlucky...

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Very poor

      2. NorCal Villan
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        How was he unlucky? He stunk up the pitch today

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Huge dif for me in my mini leagues, huge fail

    3. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      It's his second blank in 12 gameweeks. Calm down

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Kept slipping.

    4. Zilla
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Abortion supporter?

  22. Bartowski
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Are there any more prospective DGWs?

    1. Bod
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah quite a few games to be scheduled

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Loads more weeks to be dissapointed

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

      31 or 32 for Burnley and Everton, 33, 36 and 37 look like they could be bigger dgws.

  23. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Doherty non existent. Big L

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I brought him in for a hit what did you expect

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        I blame you

        1. WVA
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          He won't play next game either now

      2. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Hahaha

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

      He really missed Jonjoe Kenny & Iwobi!

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        He wasn't good at all in that game.

    3. Bod
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I have him and am perfectly ok with today’s result. Sub-5m defender with another game still to play this week and a game next week

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

    Kulu covers Kane for 6m less.

    1. jacob1989
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      u mean Son for almost 5m less?

  25. Bartowski
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    And the battle for that last Europa League spot swings the mighty Manchester United's way....

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

      The real winners there will be the ones who miss out.

  26. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Got Spurs players for -8

    What the f was I thinking?

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Huh? Kane and Kulu delivered

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Kulu and Doherty

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      For the 2nd game

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      One goal and one assist in this match. I take it.

      1. Bod
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah, about as much as could have been expected really

    4. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Most of the top owners Spurs players still got a return and now have another game to go

    5. sulldaddy
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      You bought em thinkin they get to play Brighton this GW

    6. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Its not this game you really bought them for, Brighton and West ham are both in for the take. Brighton are awful defending atm, West ham also play thursday so a home game is not that bad. Conte wont be happy, but its a whole team kind of loss, i think he still plays the same 11.

  27. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Bizarre game, spurs had most of it but 3 moments of magic from siuuuu, spurs in the mud now

  28. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Fellow Son owners, we have been unlucky twice in row, but he will come good 🙂

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      What a surprise

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

      Yeah, when you own Son, you have to stick through his occasional dry spells. He'll definitely come good.

    3. james 101
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Hope so

      kulu looking good though

    4. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I don't think we were unlucky.One more bad performance.

    5. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Not sure how Son was unlucky today. Wasted his chance and created nothing really.

  29. james 101
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    FH team. (GW30). What needs changing?

    Sa
    Cash Gabriel Cresswell
    Son Kulu Saka Coutinho Maddison
    Kane Lacazette

    (3.9 Toney Coady 3.9)

    Eg
    Maddison or Barnes ?
    More villa / Wham?
    Anyone from Leeds?
    Start Coady / Saiss?

    (I have 2 FHs. Would only be fielding 5) .

    1. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Get Daka? Don't know who out though.

  30. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    What an awful performance from Tottenham.Hojbjerg the only exception.

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Very underated player
