The weekend’s Premier League action continues on Sunday when West Ham United host league-leaders Arsenal in a London derby.

Kick-off is at 14:00 BST.

David Moyes makes three changes from last weekend’s 1-0 win over Fulham, as Thilo Kehrer, Lucas Paqueta and Said Benrahma replace Angelo Ogbonna, Pablo Fornals and Danny Ings.

The only survivors from Thursday night in Genk are Vladimir Coufal, Declan Rice and Jarrod Bowen.

As for Arsenal, they make just the one alteration and it’s enforced, as Kieran Tierney comes in for the injured Oleksandr Zinchenko. The 14.1% owned defender misses out as a precaution due to a tight groin.

Elsewhere, Eddie Nketiah is among the substitutes having missed the past month with an ankle problem.

GAMEWEEK 31 LINE-UPS

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

Subs: Areola, Anang, Johnson, Emerson, Downes, Fornals, Lanzini, Cornet, Ings

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale, White, Holding, Gabriel, Tierney, Partey, Odegaard, Xhaka, Saka, Martinelli, Jesus

Subs: Turner, Kiwior, Walters, Smith Rowe, Jorginho, Vieira, Nelson, Trossard, Nketiah

      Miss an open goal from open play = 0 points and -3bps
      Miss a penalty = -2 points and -6bps

      I think it could make sense to have a smaller bonus impact from penalties. If you miss one you get the bonus impact equivalent to missing two big chances. If Haaland/Kane have a poor game but score a penalty they get 24bps and usually get bonus therefore.

      I'd kind of prefer it if:
      1) Same points for scoring a penalty regardless of position
      2) Smaller/no bonus impact for scoring and missing
      3) A small point for winning a penalty e.g. 1 to 2?

      At the moment they are big swing factors in FPL recently and yet only about 75% of penalties are scored from memory.

          Oh yeah - keepers get more bps for saving a penalty than keeping a CS which feels crazy too - would love to have my keepers face a penalty every GW!

    Had the choice of getting rid of either Saka or Odegaard a couple of GWs ago, I knew that keeping Saka instead of Odegaard would mean a -4 to get Haaland back, still I decided to keep Saka and get the -4 as I was certain he would certainly get 4 more points than Odegaard in the following weeks.

    That cost me around 20 points and I was struggling to get to 10K. Still, I think it was the right choice with Odegaard playing deeper after Jesus returned. Would probably have kept Saka even if that choice was between Saka and Martinelli.

    Those who did the opposite are just lucky. And that's FPL 😉
