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

    Glad I didnt listen to some content creators saying Pinnock was cheaper and had the better stats than Mee!

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

      Content creators were the ones promoting the WC. That went well

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

        it does also require content consumers to have any traction!

    Nice pick, Pinnock owners. I am going to pretend I didn't just read Henry should be in the points too!

  3. Clintymints

    Had Pinnock in my team for a day until a change to Henry at the last minute

    #rage

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Same!

  4. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Changed Pinnock to Henry last minute 😆

    What a game!

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

      Henry should have had an assist, Buemo missed a sitter

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        But he didn’t and will blank

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

      It makes you wonder. If you left Pinnock, would he score?

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        No chance!!

  5. AC/DC AFC

    Toney swinging out at Diop

  6. Zalk
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Haha, the way Brentfords coach look when he chews his gum. It's like they picked him straight out of The Deliverance cast.

  7. Eleven Hag
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Toney bet on Diop getting booked.

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

      He will...

  8. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Anyone but Pinnock!!

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Humongous 0.7% ownership!

      1. MIGHTY JOE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Rival owns him obviously 🙂

  9. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Absolute stroke of luck there in my team, went Pinnock over Mee

  10. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Pinnock, what a legend!

    1. Utopsis
      • 5 Years

      Pinnock saving my WC decision

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Likewise! If Brentford keep a CS, I should hit 60 points 🙂

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Oh well....

    Mbeumo post close Leno routed

  12. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    I love how the two least owned defenders notched those points 😆

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

      I see you changed your avatar. was it because of yesterday's score?

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Nah, changed it a week or so ago. Reecey Boi wasn't even in the squad!

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

          It's a shame that his many injuries hinder his potential

          1. Hazz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Indeed, hope he can sort it out.

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

    Calling it now. No Brentford CS and Toney Blank.

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

      Get out of here with this blasphemy

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

        I have Henry and Toney so it's inevitable. My apologies

    2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Pinnock brace in that case

    3. Shultan
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Trying the jinx 😉

    4. Granville

      Fullham look very capable of scoring a goal. The better side.

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

        no shots to Brentford's 5 so far

  14. Clueless_91

    Any suggestions what to do with this? Have only 1 free trf, but happy to take a -4

    Pinnock my man! Late to the party that does not exist. After having Sanchez in my wc team, transferring Darwin, Salah, White and Walker out as one week losses I think this jam is deserved

    Willian 3/10 YC diving

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

      Toney was so happy

  17. BECKS TO THE FUTURE

    Early days but how’s Mbeumo looking? Thinking of getting him over Toney this week.

    1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Forgot to add: thanks in advance!

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

      He looks dangerous to be honest

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

      Took the paint off the post earlier

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

        How many times did he do that last season?

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

      Very wasteful

      1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Darwin wasteful or not-his-night wasteful?

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

      I think it’s Toney or nobody to be honest assuming Toney is available especially as he is on Pens.

      1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        I know, I know - I just can see him getting a yellow and a blank in the Everton match if I bring him in haha.

  18. Red Star Toro
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    The panic when I thought it was a YC for Toney

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

      Ha Ha - even the commentators were fooled by Willian’s dive.

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

        Not here 😉

    2. JELLYFISH
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Don’t worry. It will come

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      don't worry his only on 8 still needs to get 2 more to totally muck Wild card teams for GW27/GW29 still could get sent off or bang in a hattrick as Greavies used to say its a funny old game

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

    Cheeky Toney 🙂

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      ASSist nearly

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

        True

  20. Eleven Hag
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    So what do we think of this Fulham defense without Palhinha? Can we go with Martinelli over a Brighton midfielder next week?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Would take a Brighton midfielder with 2 games any day. Martinelli will also get an extended run-out on Thursday before the GW, and potentially the Thursday after (Europa League, no other real strikers with Nketiah/Trossard/Jesus injury)

      1. Old Bull
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Jesus back in training

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          There taking it slow with him. I don't really expect Jesus to play in the next fixture or two.

      2. Eleven Hag
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        If I transfer in a Bri mid, I will have one less player in gw28 so it will effectively be two games overall anyway. Would u still do it?

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

      Doubt it

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Brighton over Arsenal as DGW

  21. The Senate
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Any chance of Toney returns?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Just been confirmed by independent adjudicator that it is impossible.

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      50/50 might not score but already a chance of an assist

  22. Sandy Ravage
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Pick one:
    A - Odegaard (ful)
    B - Mbuemo (eve, sou)

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      B

  23. Lord of Ings
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Didn’t see the goal yet, but any chances of it being an OG? Heard it came off ream or something

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Think it will stick. Haven't seen full angle but it's a shot at goal, it just takes a big deflection and blindsides Leno the other side of him

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

        I believe it was going wide, but probably impossible to be absolutely certain about it, so G imo.

  24. Patio Kev
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Brentford FK in dangerous position

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

    Toney standing next to the ref every time he hands out a yellow must have people on edge

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

    Toney clips woodwork

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

    Toney post - that’s a let off

  28. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Toney hits the bar.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      🙁

  29. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    At least it's looking like an easy CS for Brentford so far, zero Fulham shots - one victory for WCers at last!

  30. A. PRISE
    • 5 Years

    Can we EVER get a break?
