Sigurdsson’s benching among the headline Gameweek 20 team news

Gameweek 20 kicks off at 15:00 GMT today as five Premier League matches take place, including Spurs v Wolves and Brighton v Everton.

Christian Eriksen, Son Heung-min and Harry Kane are joined by Dele Alli in the Spurs attack, while Kieran Trippier, Ben Davies and Davinson Sanchez return to the home defence.

Wolves meanwhile have made three changes in the midfield/forward positions, with Ruben Neves and Ivan Cavaleiro recalled and Leander Dendoncker making his first Premier League start.

Gylfi Sigurdsson and Dominic Calvert-Lewin drop to the bench for Everton’s trip to Brighton, as Richarlison is recalled up front.

Marco Silva is once again deploying a wing-back system after their 5-1 success at Turf Moor on Boxing Day.

Brighton recall Florin Andone in attack at the expense of Glenn Murray, while David Button is the £4.0m-rated goalkeeper given the nod to deputise for Mathew Ryan.

Jose Holebas, Abdoulaye Doucoure and Troy Deeney are among the substitutes as Javi Gracia makes six changes for the visit of Newcastle, who recall Christian Atsu, Ayoze Perez and Salomon Rondon.

Tom Cairney and Luciano Vietto replace Aboubakar Kamara and Andre Schurrle as Claudio Ranieri again rolls out a 3-4-3. Chris Lowe returns for Huddersfield, meanwhile.

Jamie Vardy and James Maddison both start for Leicester this afternoon, with the Foxes entertaining a Cardiff side who welcome back Callum Paterson from injury up front.

    6. Thick Of It

      1. Numb
        • 9 Years

        Yes

      2. Numb
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

    7. Lionel Ronaldo
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      And if he scores a brace after your comment, will we hear from you?

    8. JamieC180
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Why's that? Not watching the game - presumably you're joking, as a 35 minute blank is hardly the end of the world

    9. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 8 Years

      OMG Jafooli

  7. SAUCY SALAH
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Bonus 3 for that Kane strike alone, incredible with his weaker foot

  8. The Big Fella
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

  11. MGD

    1. Ravager
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I had him for the last 3 I think. Surprisingly, only one fit him in this week and capped

      1. MGD
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Had him for 4 but last 2 he delivered 🙂

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

  12. SirStevieG

    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Help. Just bought Fifa for the first time in like 8 years!

    Where do I start? What are the different game modes?

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      YouTube videos can help.

    2. BigBillyBass
      • 6 Years

      Wrong forum

    3. Ode
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

  16. The Big Fella
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    How is Fulham - Huddersfield looking?

  17. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Digne not scored yet?

  18. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Spurs don't get a lot of penalties do they?

  19. Lionel Ronaldo
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    WTF is with Watford's formation? 4-2-2-2 or something ?

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Usually is.

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yes, Garcia's innovation.

  20. Monkey Hanger
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Rondon disallowed.

    1. Thick Of It
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Do disallowed goals have any impact on baps?

      1. SAUCY SALAH
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yes SOT

        1. Rostah
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          How can you have a SOT if you were offside and the shot couldn’t result in a goal? Depends on why the goal was disallowed, but offside doesn’t add SOT stats

          1. SAUCY SALAH
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Sorry didn't read properly, I'll assume - BPS for the reason it's disallowed

      2. Zladan
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        If they’re offside yes.

  21. The Train Driver
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Kane has some kind of dementia where he all of the sudden forgets he's a forward?

    1. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Silly comment on several levels.

  22. BigBillyBass
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Rondon essential

  23. slasken
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Holebas rested or anything else?

  24. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Rondon on a hat-trick of disallowed goals

  25. Chucky
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Richo gone off??

    1. Collie01

    I did my first last minute change. Lesson is, don't do them, your unrushed judgment is better. Second lesson is don't believe the ffs team news especially at this time of the year. Too embarrassed to say what it is but it won't go wrong until tomorrow.

      Do tell

  29. SirStevieG
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Maybe I should have played Dunk over Doherty. The latter has barely touched it.
