The Weekend Team News

Vincent Kompany faces a late fitness test ahead of City’s trip to Chelsea, though Gael Clichy remains unavailable. Wayne Rooney is available for United after a recent bout of tonsillitis. Nani’s twanged hamstring keeps him on the sidelines, while Sir Alex Ferguson is still uncertain as to whether Jonny Evans will be ready for the visit of QPR.

Villa welcome back Darren Bent and Eric Lichaj ahead of Arsenal’s visit tomorrow evening, while Swansea look to have hopeful Ki Sung-Yeung back in their squad, which could see Michu move up front again. Danny Graham and Luke Moore are struck by illness but Ben Davies has reportedly recovered and is available.

As the injuries rack up for Newcastle, Alan Pardew is optimistic that Papiss Cisse has a “good chance” of recovering from the thigh problem that forced him off in last night’s Europa League match with Maritimo, though Shola Ameobi is a real doubt with a groin injury. James Perch and Jonas Gutierrez have trained ahead of Sunday’s clash.

We’ve collected all this and squeezed it into our team news section and added our current predicted lineups for the weekend ahead. You can keep in touch with the very latest via our twitter feed as always.

    When we ask questions here, we don't actually want advice, we just want people to confirm that which we are going to do anyway.

    Discuss.

      Nope. I have no opinions and my entire squad of XV was based entirely on suggestions from members on this site. I have no imagination, no ideas and no intelligence.

    Would anyone take a 4 point hit on Wilkinson when you only have Reading coverage as backup.

    Thinking about it. Have 1 million in the bank.

    The trouble with having Ba (for me), there are cheaper options capable of similar or more returns, or superstars for slightly more...

    Although he's been averaging 5pts(ish) for the last several GWs, for me he's just that wee bit pricey for what's on offer...
