There’s one more Gameweek 26 match to go and it’s a pretty big one for Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers.

Brentford v Fulham is the fixture in question, with kick-off set for 20:00 GMT.

Four Brentford assets boast ample ownership in the top 10k (see below) – Ivan Toney, David Raya, Ben Mee and Rico Henry – and all of them are part of Thomas Frank’s starting XI tonight.

The only change from the side that started in Gameweek 24 sees Mikkel Damsgaard come in for Josh Dasilva, who drops to the bench.

He sits alongside Pontus Jansson and Frank Onyeka, who return as substitutes after recovering from respective hamstring injuries. 

As for Fulham, they make three alterations from the 1-1 draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Sasa Lukic comes in for the suspended Joao Palhinha, while Manor Solomon and Aleksandar Mitrovic replace Bobby De Cordova-Reid and Carlos Vinicius in attack.

GAMEWEEK 26 LINE-UPS

Brentford XI: Raya, Hickey, Pinnock, Mee, Henry, Norgaard, Damsgaard, Jensen, Mbeumo, Wissa, Toney

Subs: Cox, Schade, Dasilva, Onyeka, Jansson, Ajer, Baptiste, Janelt, Roerslev

    Not too much to ask.

      I’ll second that wish list dude!! After a momentous fpl day yesterday I’m waiting for the downfall tonight!

        • 11 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Non GW26 wildcarders unite !!!!

          • 4 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          I’m anxiously waiting the outcome of tonight before I celebrate. I normally don’t get a 50% increase in rank so something has to knock the stuffing out of me tonight! I live in hope tho!

          1. Patio Kev
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Absolutely - tonight is about damage limitation for me. I’d even take a 0-0 I think right now.

    2. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Have to disagree, sorry. Toney the Tiger brace and Rico Henry assy and cleanie. Taken off to a raperous applause on the 85th minute (not injury-related) and cleanie banked before Mee concedes moments later... 😀

      1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Oh big Andy is speaking my language!

      2. Patio Kev
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Booooooooooooooooooo

        I do fear tonight is the revenge day for GW26 Wildcarders.

    3. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Soooo much this!

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Prayer mat is out, lads! 😆

        1. Haalander
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Lol big time!

    4. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Get out of here

    5. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Brentford wins 4 - 0, Toney hattie, Mee assisting and scoring one and Raya saving pen + making 6 save sounds better 🙂

      1. TheBiffas
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Ugh you gave me flashbacks to the week I sold Toney right before his hat-trick

  2. The Knights Template
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    I’ve always loved Brentford ever since I almost went and watched them play in 2016.

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Atmosphere in it looks good. I'd be sorely tempted to go for a game at some stage.

  3. g40steve
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    50% Toney ownership wonder how many Capped?

    Decent 17 from Toney needed.

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Big time. I'm getting chinned in H2H league by a team who hasn't been improved on all season. Marco Alonso, Coutinho, Mason Mount all on there. Bobby Firmino (c). Incredible.

      1. g40steve
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Those that don’t change team sometimes really nail the numbers, dead teams eh

        1. Big_Andy_GAWA
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Yeah. This one is unbelievable. I wildcard and he's beating me by 15 points!! So I need Toney and Rico Henry returns this evening when I thought it was a banker three points for me. Lol.

      2. Scalper
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Marco alonso?

        1. g40steve
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          🙂

          Must be deep on the bench by now with autosubs

        2. Big_Andy_GAWA
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Yup.

          1. Big_Andy_GAWA
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Lloris and Ederson GK's and DCL on there, too.

  4. Viper
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    For those of you that wildcarded in Sanchez & Kepa, what are you thinking now? Sanchez -> Raya or just play Kepa &. Save FT?..

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Holding Sanchez already have Raya

  5. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Stupid Leno not getting a tummy ache and missing the game.

  6. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Anyone else looking at Brennan Johnson as an option? Absolute peach of a double in 29.

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      He has been rollin

      1. Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        If Toney craps out

    2. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I will likely get him in for DGW29.

      1. g40steve

  7. GE
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Have WC, FH and BB

    1) Mahrez -> Mitoma (Bench Ødegaard)
    2) Wildcard

    Current team:
    (1FT, 1.7 itb)

    Kepa
    Trippier/Shaw/Mings (Tark, Mings)
    Rashford/Saka/Martinelli/Ødegaard (Mahrez)
    Haaland/Kane/Toney

  8. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Just need 26 points from Mee, Raya and Toney for a green arrow

  9. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Please... Which FH has the bigger upside?

    27 or 29?

    I think 29, but with 27 you don't have as many selection headaches!

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

        1. FPLtfs
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

    5. A. PRISE
      • 5 Years

    6. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I suddenly thought that Pinnock may be rotated with the fit again fella and read some comments Frank praising Henry on the wing lol and ofc made the change

    7. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

  22. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    **Checks Brentford defender in team** nope, still not Pinnock because I had extra money in the bank.

  23. Patio Kev
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Goal currently given to Pinnock but am sure that will change.

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Why? Doubt it

      1. Patio Kev
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Don’t think his shot was going in without the deflection.

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

        yeah

        Opta have Pinnock down

        It looked on target to me

    2. Game...Blouses
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Isn't the goal awarded if the origional shot was on target? Looked like the shot was heading inside the right post.

      1. Patio Kev
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Yep absolutely- if it was on target then it’s Pinnocks regardless of who touches it last but I’m not sure it was.

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      You wish

  24. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    99% of my wc drafts had Pinnock. I’m edging done 😆

  25. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Fulham drunk?

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Hickey!

  26. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Of course I have Pinnock on my bench.

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

      before or after Mitoma?

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Next to Mac Allister actually. Played March.

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

          sorry!

  27. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Any chance of a Raya penalty save to match ward on my bench?

  28. GC123
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Evening guys. Looking for some advice after another horrendous game week. Is Mitoma essential this week? Can get him in on a FT by selling Andreas but it would mean benching one of Odegaard, Martinelli, Rash or Bruno. Alternatively I can save my FT wchich would allow me to field 11 in GW28

    1. A. PRISE
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Everyone that I have transferred out is essential. So darwin, salah, odegaard

  29. Patio Kev
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Right come on then Fulham 1-1 would be nice but not Mitrovic, definitely not Mitrovic.
