The final day of Gameweek 35 begins at Craven Cottage, where Fulham host Leicester City at 15:00 BST.

Narrow losses to Manchester City and Liverpool haven’t changed the safe tenth-placed position of Marco Silva’s side, who makes two changes from the Anfield defeat.

Kenny Tete (£4.4m) and Harrison Reed (£4.3m) come in for Cedric Soares (£4.2m) and Sasa Lukic (£4.5m), as both Andreas Pereira (£4.4m) and Aleksandar Mitrovic (£6.6m) remain absent due to injury and suspension.

Dean Smith also makes two changes for the Foxes, currently 16th but only out of the relegation zone on goal difference.

Dennis Praet (£4.8m) and Victor Kristiansen (£4.5m) replace Wilfred Ndidi (£4.8m) and Luke Thomas (£3.9m), meaning it’s another start for Jamie Vardy (£9.1m). He’s looking to score for the third successive match, while we still don’t know if James Maddison (£7.9m) remains on penalty duties after last week’s miss.

Injured Kelechi Iheanacho (£5.8m) does not make the Leicester squad but the recovered Ricardo Pereira (£4.2m) is named on the bench.

GAMEWEEK 35 LINE-UPS

Fulham XI: Leno; Tete, Adarabioyo, Diop, Robinson; Palhinha, Reed; Wilson, Cairney, Willian; Vinicius

Subs: Rodak, Duffy, Cedric, Lukic, Dibley-Dias, Harris, Kebano, Solomon, De Cordova-Reid

Leicester City XI: Iversen; Castagne, Faes, Soyuncu, Kristiansen; Tielemans, Soumare, Praet; Maddison, Vardy, Barnes

Subs: Ward, Ricardo, Evans, Souttar, Mendy, Ndidi, Dewsbury-Hall, Tete, Daka

    One more maddy you owe me

    This is why you want to go light in defence and invest upfront at the end of the season - goalfests!

  3. Admiral Benson
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    My move this week of Odegaard to March not looking too hot with benefit of hindsight

  4. Philosopher's Stones
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Vinicius, Leno, Willian, Maddison and Barnes for a -12 was the obvious play this GW.

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Barnes always has a haul like this in him every season (surrounded by 1 pointers of course)

  5. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Just got in, seen line ups, March benched! Just dunk an mitoma
    Not great v ml rivals who have Mac

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Dunk will get negative points today as well

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Probably ! Most have estu, Steele or dunk with their 2 mids

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Estu and Steele will both haul, though

          1. Gizzachance
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Ha, they can all share the cs together !

    2. Planet Head
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      March was meant to be my minileague differential ffs. He can stay on the bench now

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Same mate

  6. Steve McCroskey
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone got the golden midfielder combo of Maddison, Barnes, Willian, Cairney?

  7. Free Hat
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Whats strange about March benching is that Buena notte wasnt even good last game

  8. Nazz
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Are people doing Watkins to isak/Wilson

    I also have Alvarez but I don't see my self playing Watkins from now .. bad weeks ahead and then face Liverpool with no double

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Yep that's my move

  9. Planet Head
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    March can stay on the bench, got Toti first sub 😆

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years

      Schar here

      1. Planet Head
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        ouch

  10. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Harvey Barnes hasn't had a single bonus point all season. 2 goals today and still wont be getting any! Incredible

    1. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Combination of failed dribbles and off target shots. As good a player and a threat as he is, his style of play isn't good for bps.

    Solly March unlucky to be dropped. Random from Di Zerbi.

      De Zerbi asked about Gross injury, says he’s fine and goes on to say…

      “Solly March is not in his best moment”

      Thanks De Zerbi what does this mean

      1. Robe Wan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        He missed a massive penalty and is struggling with his confidence most likely

      2. St Pauli Walnuts
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Doesn't make much sense, he's played well in limited time he has had since then.

  12. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Did maddison to rashford:(

    1. Planet Head
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      That was both mad and rash

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        🙂

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

      Me too. Got nothing to play for so did three crazy moves, none of which worked. Nothing ventured…

  13. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2 years, 7 months ago

    Playoffs:
    Luton v Sunderland
    Middlesbrough v Coventry

    Millwall scoreline is quite something 😀

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Justice

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Gutted as a Rovers fan. But would much rather be us than Millwall rn. At least we finished strong!

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Bad Luck. Nice win today. Probably best you are not there at the moment

    3. threeputt
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      as a Wycombe fan I've seen first hand the unbelievable Sunderland support. If they get to Wembley they'll fill it and suck the ball in. I think I'm actually rooting for them now !

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        When i have been to Sunderland it was half empty but the last time was 2005 i think lol.

        Nice to see what i think is the fiercest rivalry in football. Newcastle and Sunderland

    4. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      It seems Luton will get promoted. I was expecting Middlesbrough back in the PL

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Things can get spicy in the playoffs, pretty common the 3rd team actually doesn't win
        Sunderland would be interesting, feel like their fans have had a tough time recently being down in league 1 while their bitter rivals become the richest team in the world

        1. PartyTime
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Luton deserve it based on points but you are right. Sunderland would be an interesting one too. Think the playoffs would be exciting tbh

          1. Sun Jihai
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Yeah - love the playoffs (the Notts County game yday was bonkers) apart from when it's your own team involved!

    1. Rojo's Modern Life
      • 15 Years

      What?

    2. JOELIO8701
