Fulham v Leeds United has the tough act of following on from last night’s six-goal thriller at the Emirates.

Kick-off at Craven Cottage is at 12:30 BST.

There’d ordinarily not be a great deal of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) interest in this match, and in truth, there may be less riding on it than any of the other seven Blank Gameweek 32 fixtures.

Still, budget buy Andreas Pereira was transferred in by almost 200,000 FPL managers ahead of Friday’s deadline, in time for a meeting with the division’s leakiest defence.

Bernd Leno also gained around 100,000 new owners, with Fulham assets in the ‘sensible differential’ envelope after Leeds experienced back-to-back heavy defeats.

As for the team news, Marco Silva makes one enforced change: Bobby DeCordova-Reid is in for the ineligible Daniel James up top.

Javi Gracia responds to Leeds’ 6-1 thumping by Liverpool by making three alterations.

Junior Firpo, Pascal Struijk and Luis Sinisterra drop to the bench, with Liam Cooper, Max Wober and Crysencio Summerville taking their places.

Patrick Bamford returns from injury as a substitute.

GAMEWEEK 32 LINE-UPS

Fulham XI: Leno, Tete, Adarabioyo, Ream, Robinson, Reed, Palhinha, Wilson, Pereira, Willian, De Cordova-Reid.

Subs: Rodak, Duffy, Kebano, Cairney, Solomon, Soares, Lukic, Vinicius, Diop.

Leeds United XI: Meslier, Kristensen, Koch, Cooper, Wober, McKennie, Roca, Harrison, Aaronson, Summerville, Rodrigo.

Subs: Robles, Ayling, Firpo, Forshaw, Bamford, Struijk, Sinisterra, Rutter, Gnonto

    Which Brighton to target got Estu & Mitoma?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Well March or Mac obviously

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

      Solly :mrgreen:

    3. Sandy Ravage
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Steele frees up MID spot

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

        This is a super good point because 2x BRI mids is a benching nightmare.

        But Steele needs to not lose the spot...

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

          If you had 2, which games would you consider benching either for? If they continue their form, wouldn't you play them both every game?

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

            Of course, that's the thing with other good players available too!

    4. I Member
      • 10 Years

      March

    5. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Cheers

    6. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      The Ides of…

    7. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Have March Estu and getting Mitoma

  2. Utopsis
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    This game is severely lacking in quality

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Andreas getting into positions but shots have been poor

      1. Utopsis
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        The decision making and execution is just so poor throughout

  3. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Leno was probably an underrated option on FH tbh, considering how popular Johnstone was.

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

      On my bench. Guaita miraculous recovery? 😮

    2. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      On my bench as well

    3. Kane and Ablett
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      In my wc draft from last night because of his save points to target the dgw but all depends on what happens with Steele.

  4. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Wilson ruins Andreas goal

  5. I Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Arrizabalaga
    Trippier, Schar, Estupinan
    Fernandes, Saka, Grealish, Mitoma
    Haaland, Kane, Watkins

    Raya; Mac Allister, Shaw, Zinchenko.

    1 FT 0.1 ITB

    Thinking save and go into DGW34 with two free transfers. Anything else?

    1. BERGKOP
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Wise. Would hold.

  6. Vasshin
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Planning to wc and bb in 34

    Steele blank
    TAA Shaw Estu blank blank
    Rash Salah Mitoma Bowen Blank
    Haaland Blank Blank

    Please suggest on the blank players

    Thanks

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Cannot do both

      1. FPL Brains
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        What he said

      2. I Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        He probably means WC in 33 no?

  7. Gazzpfc
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Who else apart from City Utd and Brighton will double in 37

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Chelski

    2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Chelsea

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

      Chelsea (horrible fixtures) & Man United (still not amazing, but better for attackers)

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

        Just realised both games are in Manchester. Wonder if we stay up there the whole week rather than travel back-and-forth.

  8. Utopsis
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Jesus with 1.36xG yesterday

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      It seems to come as a surprise to people that he's a poor finisher...

      1. Utopsis
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Picked the right GW though didn't he? Exceeded his xG over the last 3

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      He does this a lot

  9. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Save ft here? 1 ft, 2.1m itb,

    Can do Bruno saka Mee > Salah rashford estu for a hit next gw.

    Kepa
    Shaw trippier chilwell
    Bruno saka Grealish march mitoma
    Haaland Watkins

    Raya Toney Mee zinchenko

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Yep save.

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Maybe put through the Salah & Rashford moves in 33 then Estupinan next week? Assuming Rashford is fit to play, they probably outscore Bruno & Saka in 33

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Funds issue bro, need to downgrade Mee to afford those moves

        1. The Mentaculus
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          Ah ok, didn't realise Mee was more than Estupinan. Your plan sounds good then

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 12 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            Yeah, 0.2m short. Cheers

  10. TheBiffas

    Get Gnonto on at HT

    1. FourLokoLeipzig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      This. Played him ahead of Henry as thought he would start

  11. dansmith1985
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    I’ve played my WC to set up for BB in 34,how does it look?

    Ederson
    Trippier VVD Shaw
    Grealish Rashford Salah Mitoma
    Haaland Isak Solanke

    Raya Estupinan MacAlister Botman

    1. Kane and Ablett
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Looks good but I don’t like VVD, I prefer Stones or finding a way to Trent.

      Or go cheaper defender and consider Martial for his double

  12. Gazzpfc
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Benching

    1 DDS
    2 Raya

    And bench 1

      1. Zenith UK
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

  14. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years

    Anyone know how you can watch Championship 1500 KOs?

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Intertubes, search for "watch soccer .... online" and one particular river site should show up that has all the matches.

      1. Zenith UK
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        I was going to use iFollow but turns out that's audio only...

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        You've been unlucky with Willian so far, probably been the best player on the pitch so far

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

    Goal for Camzy! Good idea, unlucky with non-outcome.

    1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Poor management not to back your instinct and be lead by others

      1. FPL Brains
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        One of the many coulda, woulda, shouldas this gameweek no doubt.

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

      Just saw it now. Oh well. That spot could have been a lot of people. You win some you lose some.

      Maddison, Bowen, Eze, Benrahma, Ramsey etc.

  20. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Cue Camzy in 10, 9, 8 ...

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

      Can't claim kudos if you didn't go there 😛

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 16 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        That's it bro

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      He has him? Fair play

  22. Sandy Ravage
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Meslier A

  23. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Well taken goal

  24. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone have Harry?

  25. Pat Bonner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Any chance of a willian assist there? Wilson intended target

    1. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Came off the keeled so unlikely.

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        *keeper

      2. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Does look a dodgy one but rules are around intended target for crosses so I might get lucky

        1. Amartey Partey
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          Nice one. I still don’t understand how Ederson didn’t get an assist then.

          1. Pat Bonner
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 8 months ago

            That was a shocker, 100% should’ve been an assist

    2. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Willian A showing

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Brilliant!

    3. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Wow had both on my shortlist but went with Eze, Pool and Arsenal guys

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

      Seems to have been given although as Meslier punched ball out not sure why

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Intended target for the cross is usually what they look at

      2. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Given, but keeper punched it to Wilson

  26. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Those with Kepa and Raya, who are you playing next week?

    Or hit for Ederson for the run in?

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Kepa as Chelsea is not shooting anyway so less points for Raya?

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

      Feck knows. No to Ederson. 2 point merchant.

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Maybe true, just two DGWs tempting

    3. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Kepa I think

  27. Hooky

    Gnonto on shortly hopefully

  28. g40steve

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years

        • 8 Years

        Good luck Jota punters. Kinda wanted to go there myself by Mr. over 1 xGabby Jesus was scary 😀

      3. GENERATION X
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Seemed counter productive to change it so not a surprise for me

  29. George Sillett
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Leeds in big trouble. Have to score a minimum of 2 goals to win most games

  30. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Leeds are tripe.
    Deserve to go down.
