Gameweek 2 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) gets underway at Villa Park, where Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard square off for the first time as managers.

Kick-off between Aston Villa and Everton is at 12:30 BST.

One of the most-selected players in this fixture, the 17%-owned Leon Bailey, drops to the bench this lunchtime as Gerrard recalls Ollie Watkins to play in a front two with Danny Ings.

“Ollie Watkins is ready, he has had his strongest week since we have been back. Last week we were a bit toothless, so going two up there I am hoping we get more success.” – Steven Gerrard

The Villa manager’s other change comes at centre-half as deposed captain Tyrone Mings returns to the starting XI at the expense of Ezri Konsa.

There are also two alterations made by Lampard, both of which are enforced due to serious injuries sustained by Yerry Mina and Ben Godfrey last week.

New signing Conor Coady and Mason Holgate come in at centre-half as the Everton boss persists with the striker-less set-up of Gameweek 1 despite Salomon Rondon‘s availability.


GAMEWEEK 2 LINE-UPS

Aston Villa XI: Martinez, Cash, Diego Carlos, Mings, Digne, Ramsey, Kamara, McGinn, Watkins, Ings, Coutinho.

Subs: Konsa, Douglas Luiz, Buendia, Chambers, Augustinsson, Young, Olsen, Bailey, Archer.

Everton XI: Pickford, Patterson, Holgate, Coady, Tarkowski, Mykolenko, McNeil, Doucoure, Iwobi, Gray, Gordon.

Subs: Keane, Onana, Begovic, Alli, Coleman, Davies, Ruben Vinagre, Rondon, Mills.

    Picking Bailey is going to be like trying to figure out if Mahrez starts?

    1. Tomerick
      • 11 Years

      Except it matters much less because he’s 5m

  12. Sun Jihai

    Think Mahrez is gonna haul big time today

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Took the RW spot people thought Foden would start on

      Yeah, those who stuck with him might be smiling until GW3.

    That Mahrez Haaland Foden front 3 should be standard. Dont know why Pep bothers with Grealish. He's crap. Offers nothing.

    a lot of the players in this game are championship level, Everton might get relegated.

    3. Ser Davos
      • 10 Years

      Anyone considering the value of Kieffer Moore 5.5?

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Not today!

        • 4 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        About the actual player, I always thought he should have played in the Premier League, it always seem to me like he was too good to be playing in the Championship.

      3. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
