Another Saturday, another later-than-late kick-off as Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers gets underway at 20:00 BST.

TEAM NEWS

It’s easier to compare the Spurs team to last weekend’s XI rather than the much-changed side that Thomas Frank sent out in midweek.

There are two alterations from the Gameweek 5 line-up, both of them notable from a Fantasy perspective.

Pedro Porro drops to the bench, so in comes Djed Spence at right-back.

Further forward, Xavi Simons reclaims his place as Wilson Odobert makes way.

Vitor Pereira, by contrast, has had his head turned by the midweek EFL Cup win over Everton.

There’s only one change from Tuesday’s XI, as Jean-Ricner Bellegarde is replaced by Joao Gomes.

LINE-UPS

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Vicario; Spence, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Bergvall, Palhinha; Simons, Kudus, Richarlison.

Subs: Kinsky, Danso, Tel, Gray, Johnson, Porro, Odobert, Sarr, Scarlett.

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Johnstone; Doherty, H Bueno, Krejci, S Bueno; Munetsi, Andre, J Gomes; Arias, Strand Larsen, Hwang.

Subs: Sa, Moller Wolfe, Agbadou, Arokodare, R Gomes, Toti, Bellegarde, Lopez, Tchatchoua.

      Short summary of this GW so far.

      ManU and Spurs back to old normal.

      Bruno, Mbommo, Kudus, Richarlison, but also Foden, Isak, DCL, and Ciao Pedro are still traps.

      Who didn't captain Haaland, good night.

      1. Magic Zico

        Salah?

          Salah is done.

    • chocolove
      • 15 Years

      Kudus all fart no poo

      1. tutankamun

        A bit unlucky imo

        1. tutankamun
          • 16 Years

          But yeah. Poodus

      2. jacob1989

        What about Richarlison? Not even a silent fart leave alone poo

    • aleksios
      • 10 Years

      Dorgu+Palmer to Guehi+Caicedo for a hit?

      1. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 9 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Hell no.

        1. aleksios
          • 10 Years
          3 months, 1 day ago

          Need to get rid of Palmer and Dorgu is a waste.
          What would you do?

          1. Sgt Frank Drebin
            • 9 Years
            3 months, 1 day ago

            Palmer to Saka if he Saka's fit?

      2. jacob1989
        • 3 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        Why caicedo?

      3. Pariße
        • 10 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        In any other season that’d be madness.

    • Qaiss
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Spurs and Liverpool have been riding their luck for weeks, both have been crap. 4th place looks open this season

    • IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      When I checked earlier today it looked like Gyökeres would rise in price. Looks different now?

    • Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      VVD hit DC threshold after an update

      1. Qaiss
        • 9 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        Went from 8 to 11. Amazing. Maybe it’ll be back down to 5 by tomorrow and then up to 10 on Monday night

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 7 Years
          3 months, 1 day ago

          Oh look, here he goes with the defcon rant again. Do you have a defcon keyword alert setup?

          1. Qaiss
            • 9 Years
            3 months, 1 day ago

            Just think it’s an awful addition to the game, as do most people who play it for fun rather than anything else. Cheap defenders have made a lot of players non-options this season

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      3. lilmessipran
        • 13 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        Is there a chance Bruno does too? That -1 just looks awful next to my mids who are all somehow on 1...idgits.

      4. Salarrivederci

        Lovely. Obviously 8 were a mistake! Andersen to join Senesi, Lacroix and Virgil in the DEFCON-Club tomorrow

            You do hope for your chosen XI to bag points trying to win this fantasy game too right? 🙂

              All points to be equal for all. In fact, no points for no one.

        Great news!

        1. Sgt Frank Drebin

          Need to find one for Bruno now.

    • Khalico

      Would you look to move Kudus to Enzo?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Still good!

        Up to 20k

        1. JT11fc

      Both Sarr's return after all. Spurs Sarr only on for 12 minutes but that was enough.

      Thoughts on this potential GW move using FT's: Salah, Elliott & Mateta to Saka, Sarr & Gyokeres

    • pundit of punts
      • 12 Years
      3 months, 1 day ago

      Spurs and United players blank

      Stuff of dreams

      Now Gyokeres, Raya, Cash and KDH to do the heavy lifting

    • Ajax Hamsterdam

        Unpopular answer ... none atm, or at least can't be excited by either for different reason

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          3 months, 1 day ago

          so little alternatives though...maybe eze instead of saka?

    • Magic Zico

      A. Pedro > Gyokeres
      B. Richarlison > Gyokeres
      C. Keep both, leave Gyokeres out for now

      Bizarre to see Frank put Kudus on the left wing in the second half

      He was so threatening in the first half on the right

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        Wolves made subs at half time to counter Kudus

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        Trial and error, my impression was

    • have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      3 months, 1 day ago

      One of my mates who has been playing FPL for over ten years, accidentally played FH instead of WC and took a -40 hit, lol.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        Played benchboost, god, I'm as bad as him xD

      2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 9 Years

        Can't take hits on FH

      3. Nightcrawler
        • 6 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        that makes no sense

      vvd gains 2 def cons

      rodon loses 2

        DC or VAR is worse? 😛

        1. Nightcrawler
          • 6 Years
          3 months, 1 day ago

          i like def cons. it adds another dimension for the defenders, especially in cleansheets where they have to work very hard, it increases the ceiling

          .obviously the counting can fluctuate a bit with the nature of scoring

      2. JT11fc
        • 7 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        Games rigged, last I checked he was on 7..... thought I got away with benching him

        1. Nightcrawler
          • 6 Years
          3 months, 1 day ago

          u still have. he's only 2 points

      Early thoughts for game week 7.

      A) Bruno > Ismaila Sarr
      B) Keep Bruno for another week and do Porro > Livramento
      C) Keep Bruno for another week and do Porro > Anderson
      D) Keep both and roll.

    • Tomerick

      On wildcard:

      A) Raya and Burn
      B) Pope and Calafiori

      2. Qaiss
        • 9 Years
        3 months, 1 day ago

        The first one is much safer. You don’t know if Pope and Calafiori will start the whole season. Calafiori certainly won’t
