Three Premier League matches take place today, all of which kick off at 15:00 BST.

Bournemouth entertain Burnley, Crystal Palace head north to face Newcastle United and Leicester City make the trip to relegated Huddersfield Town.

Jamie Vardy starts for the Foxes, following concern about his absence from training ground photos on Thursday.

Harvey Barnes, James Maddison, Youri Tielemans, Ben Chilwell and Ricardo Pereira all start but there is no place for Harry Maguire, who was available after suspension but who fails to make the match-day squad – the Leicester Mercury claim that Maguire has had a “disrupted week” after the birth of his first child.

Brendan Rodgers’ only change sees Caglar Soyuncu replace the injured Jonny Evans at centre-half. Evans reportedly has an issue with his hip.

Huddersfield Town have only made one change, with Jon Gorenc Stankovic coming into the starting XI at the expense of Juninho Bacuna.

Isaac Mbenza returns after a lengthy lay-off and is among the substitutes.

DeAndre Yedlin and Isaac Hayden have recovered from minor injuries to start for Newcastle but Mohamed Diame misses out, so Ki Sung-yueng takes the place of the Senegalese midfielder.

Fabian Schar is back after a two-game ban and replaces Paul Dummett at centre-half.

Salomon Rondon, Ayoze Perez and Miguel Almiron again form the Magpies’ three-man attack.

Andros Townsend is back in the Crystal Palace team after dropping to the bench in midweek, meanwhile, so Cheikhou Kouyate makes way.

Wilfried Zaha, Michy Batshuayi, Jeffrey Schlupp and Aaron Wan-Bissaka all start.

Adam Smith is fit to return for Bournemouth and replaces the injured Charlie Daniels at left-back but the Cherries are otherwise unchanged.

Asmir Begovic lines up in goal again ahead of Artur Boruc, while David Brooks, Ryan Fraser, Josh King and Callum Wilson are all in Eddie Howe’s starting XI as expected.

Sean Dyche has only made one alteration to his team, with Matthew Lowton replacing the injured Phil Bardsley at right-back.

Bournemouth XI: Begovic, Clyne, Mepham, Ake, Smith, Brooks, Gosling, Lerma, Fraser, King, Wilson.

Burnley XI: Heaton, Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor, Cork, Westwood, Hendrick, McNeil, Wood, Barnes.

Huddersfield Town XI: Hamer, Smith, Schindler, Kongolo, Durm, Hogg, Stankovic, Pritchard, Mooy, Löwe, Grant.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Ricardo Pereira, Morgan, Söyüncü, Chilwell, Ndidi, Gray, Tielemans, Maddison, Barnes, Vardy.

Newcastle United XI: Dubravka, Schar, Lascelles, Lejeune, Yedlin, Hayden, Ki, Ritchie, Perez, Almiron, Rondon.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Wan-Bissaka, Kelly, Tomkins, van Aanholt, McArthur, Milivojević, Schlupp, Townsend, Batshuayi, Zaha.

    Meh 38 with hazard (c), Alonso and Fabianski to play.

    Annoyed I talked myself out of (c) Vardy as he was away from home.

  2. Bouncebackability
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    That Cardiff Brighton game is huge.

  3. Feloh

  4. Planet Head
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  5. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    If BAPS hold out, 62 with Hazard, Higuain and Fabianski to play.
    Get in!!!

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      So just hazard to play then

    4. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      Great score. I'm looking around the same maybe 66 i think, with Fabianski and (hopefully) Higuain to go... squeaky bum time w/o hazard

      1. Differential C (Mark)
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 27 days ago

        That Vardy haul MIGHT just ensure a Haz blank.
        The law of equilibrium.

    5. Krafty Werks
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      Well played, similar here as a Vardy capper, 60 with Hazard, Azpi and Flappy to go.

  6. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

      1. Niho992
        • 7 Years

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 27 days ago

    2. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      would actually be pretty perfect that. even better if 1-0 chelsea with a higuain goal but fabianski saving a pen from Hazard 😉

  9. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    Non-Hazard owners that only have Higuain... gonna be a nervy Monday night for us now still.

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      I said I wasn't afraid at all as a non-Hazard owner before the deadline. Could've got him but I got Mane instead. I lied. I'm afraid.

      1. FPL Scoop
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 27 days ago

        Oh aye haha. In good position here off of Vardy(c), but still very nervy. C'mon WHAM!

  10. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    1. tafrère

      1. tafrère
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 27 days ago

        Good score, a Chelsea clean sheet and it'll be a success.

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 27 days ago

  19. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

  20. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    Any chance that Luiz or Haz will be rested? I have Westwood as 1st sub :((((

    1. tafrère
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      Luiz could be rested, it's very possible.

  21. Richd
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    Just walked past some guy at a bus stop crying with no trousers on.

    We stopped and asked if he was ok and he just said “Jamie Vardy saved me mate”

    1. grooveymatt65
      • 12 Years

      1. JIMMY TUGGINS
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 27 days ago

  22. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

      1. tafrère
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 27 days ago

        David did.

      2. ppv
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 27 days ago

        Obvious captain choice

    3. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

  23. Ange Ball
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    Looking at all these scores looks like red arrow. 35pts -4 Hazard (c) Willian Luiz Fabs to play 🙁

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      could be fine tbh

    2. tafrère
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      If Hazard scores you're fine.

  24. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    59, Luiz, Leno & Rice to play 🙂

    1. Richd
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      59 all out then mate 😉

      Messing. That’s an awful score. Big green for you

      36 with Haz(c) and Kepa to go

      1. Richd
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 27 days ago

        I genuinely wrote awesome not awful haha

    • 8 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    33 with Hazard (c), Richarlison, Luiz and Fab to go - I’m going to get a red aren’t I despite all the planning 🙁

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years

      1. TheDragon
        • 8 Years

  28. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    55 (-4) with Hazard to go is pretty solid i think right ?

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 27 days ago

      Depends how the remaining games go but yes great score for now!

      1. Niho992

  30. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 27 days ago

    Livefpl shows 60p. Quite amazing. Schmeichel did not bring the cs and Anderson was not sold for Tielemans but that would have been too much. Digne a goal and cs tomorrow?
