Gameweek 12 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) reaches its conclusion tonight, with Fulham v Aston Villa getting us underway at 19:30 BST. Leicester City v Leeds United follows at 20:15 BST.

During the second half of the match at the King Power Stadium, Andy and Mark will be live over on our YouTube channel for their weekly Members’ video – and you can watch it via the embedded video below:

As for the team news, Fulham boss Marco Silva makes just one change from the side that drew 2-2 with Bournemouth in Gameweek 11, as Willian replaces Daniel James.

That means Andreas Pereira and Aleksandar Mitrovic start, with their FPL ownerships sitting at 25.2% and 24.8% respectively.

Steven Gerrard also makes one alteration for the visitors, with Jan Bednarek handed a full debut. Matty Cash is the player who drops to the bench, with Ezri Konsa potentially filling the vacated right-back role.

Philippe Coutinho and Emiliano Buendia are substitutes for the second week in a row.

In the later kick-off, Brendan Rodgers makes two changes to the side that drew 0-0 with Crystal Palace in Gameweek 11.

Dennis Praet comes in for the suspended James Maddison, while Jamie Vardy is preferred to Patson Daka.

As for Leeds, Patrick Bamford starts after coming off the bench at half-time against Arsenal. Diego Llorente, Junior Firpo and Crysencio Summerville also make the XI, with Jack Harrison and Rodrigo among those who drop to the bench.

Pascal Struijk was carrying a knock and misses out.

      The defence has been OK tonight, but Leeds have been awful on the ball. Was similar against Palace but I wouldn't even say Leicester had much defending to do in that game, Palace were so blunt

    Salah Zaha Martinelli Perreira (Reed)
    Haaland Kane Mitro

    1 FT 0.3m

    I'd like Saka, Foden and an upgrade in defence and GK, but the gains feel marginal and I'd almost certainly ship Salah which feels wrong before palyibg Forest.

    Worth it or hang on a few more weeks?

      You haven’t got a few more weeks. 4 then it’s gone. Triple City and probably Arsenal a must for 13-16. Then we all get a chance to regroup. Mine is live and I feel much better having gotten rid of the likes of Zaha and other trolls and bolstered with the likes of Saka, Foden and Nunez.

        Fair. But it can almost be used as a FH later on.

        No interest in Darwin, so it's basically getting used for Foden and Saka plus small upgrades in defence. But I'd be losing Salah Vs Forest. Still tempted to wait a week at a least.

    If Leicester can hold on to the CS (no idea how Ward is on for a BAP with one save and Barnes hasn't even had a sniff, but whatever), this will end up a fairly decent week for me - notwithstanding Bowen's PK miss, having benched Kepa and captained Tross the Troll.
