Gameweek 8 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) concludes this afternoon, with Everton v West Ham United getting underway at 14:15 BST.

Frank Lampard makes two changes to the side that drew 0-0 with Liverpool in Gameweek 6.

Asmir Begovic comes in for the injured Jordan Pickford, while new signing Idrissa Gana Gueye replaces Tom Davies in midfield.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin, however, fails to make the matchday squad.

As for the visitors, David Moyes makes one change, which sees Aaron Cresswell start at left-back.

That means £4.0m defender Emerson Palmieri drops to the bench.

GAMEWEEK 8 LINE-UPS

Everton XI: Begovic, Patterson, Coady, Tarkowski, Mykolenko, Onana, Gueye, Iwobi, Gray, Gordon, Maupay

Subs: Jakupovic, Keane, McNeil, Doucoure, Coleman, Davies, Vinagre, Rondon, Garner

West Ham United XI: Fabianski, Coufal, Kehrer, Zouma, Cresswell, Soucek, Rice, Bowen, Paqueta, Fornals, Antonio

Subs: Areola, Scamacca, Lanzini, Downes, Cornet, Dawson, Ogbonna, Benrahma, Emerson

    Would you roll the below? 1.1 ITB or perhaps Gordon out or Foden > Diaz?

    Pope

    Cancelo / Trippier / Perisic / James

    Foden / Maddison / Martinelli

    Kane / Haaland / Mitro

    Iversen | Gordon | Patterson | Andreas

    Thanks

      WC would allow me to change GK, would get James, Zaha, Maddison, possibly would mean getting rid of Jesus as well

              Yeah… I had a decision to make because I had Sessegnon who wasn’t in his predicted lineup too & was dead sure he would start. Didn’t want to risk Son & Sessegnon just incase… so kept Sess & binned Son.

              If only he predicted Sess to start, wouldn’t have sold Son 😆

    With James & Guehi sitting fixtureless on my bench, I’m probably one of the only people who is thankful for the 1pt from Emerson in the end.
    Now he can get lost and be perma-third on the bench until we see he’s a starter

      I’m still backing him. The best FPL points are always when you get in a player *before* he goes on a spree.
      Sometimes it doesn’t work out of course. But Bowen certainly isn’t suddenly rubbish, nor are West Ham.
      Go with your gut I’d say

        I think it's more rewarding when stats and/or eye test suggest it's about to happen and you get in ahead of the curve. Otherwise you are just lucky, and there's less enjoyment in that.

      Form then fixtures, also depends which team the players are from & if they are defenders or attackers

      For me City, Spurs, Arsenal & Liverpool attacking wise are probably fixture proof

    Would you WC this lot?

    Pope (Ward)
    Cancelo, Perisic, Trippier (Saliba, Neco)
    KDB, Zaha, Martinelli, Groß (Andreas)
    Haaland, Jesus, Mitrovic

    I was set on activating it, but there aren't that many changes I'd like to do anyway. I want Salah, but could just bring him in for KDB. I'd want Maddison, I'd want James, that would require WCing — is it worth though? And if not, is it worth even holding onto it?

          2nd move has much bigger upside & I think KDB outscores Salah over the next 3. But if you disagree with the last part & are capping Salah next week then that's probably a reasonable hit to take
