The last Premier League fixture before the October international break takes place at St. James’ Park, as Newcastle United host Manchester United.

Kick-off on Tyneside is at 16:30 BST.

As anticipated, the Red Devils are without Paul Pogba (£8.4m), Anthony Martial (£7.5m), Luke Shaw, Jesse Lingard (£6.4m) and Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£5.5m) for this encounter.

Lingard, Pogba and Victor Lindelof (£5.4m) – who has picked up a back injury – make way from the team that drew 1-1 at Old Trafford, with Juan Mata (£6.3m), Fred (£5.3m) and Diogo Dalot (£4.9m) replacing them.

Ashley Young switches over to left-back to accommodate Dalot, with Axel Tuanzebe (£4.4m) partnering Harry Maguire (£5.5m) at centre-half.

There is still no league start for Mason Greenwood (£4.4m), who is only among the substitutes.

Marcus Rashford (£8.4m) again leads the line for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side.

Steve Bruce has rung the changes after the Magpies’ 5-0 thrashing at Leicester last Sunday.

Emil Krafth (£4.5m), Paul Dummett (£4.5m), the suspended Isaac Hayden (£4.5m), Yoshinori Muto (£5.3m) and Christian Atsu (£5.4m) all drop out, with Ciaran Clark (£4.4m), DeAndre Yedlin (£4.4m), Jetro Willems (£4.5m), Matthew Longstaff (£4.5m) and Allan Saint-Maximin (£5.4m) coming into the starting XI.

Not a single Newcastle player on show is owned by more than 5% of FPL bosses.

Rashford, Maguire, Daniel James (£6.2m) and David de Gea (£5.6m) all have double-digit ownerships, along with Greenwood.

Just over 100,000 FPL managers have captained Rashford for this fixture.

Newcastle United XI: Dubravka, Yedlin, Schar, Lascelles, Clark, Willems, M. Longstaff, S. Longstaff, Saint-Maximin, Joelinton, Almiron.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Dalot, Tuanzebe, Maguire, Young, Fred, McTominay, Andreas, Mata, James, Rashford.

    Reckon City will be better defensively when KDB returns?

    1. beric
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Better all over

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Attack is the best defence.

    3. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      No

    4. Alexis Nonsense
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      I reckon they'll be better offensively...

    5. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      If he replaces Otamendi.

    6. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Nope

    7. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      City are not going to like when teams counter attack. Ota and Fern are slow.

      Opposition teams are taking note.

    8. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Can he stay fit though.

    LMS safety score currently 28.

    1 game + autosubs to go.

      What's the overall average for the gameweek?

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        33, top10k is 36. But there will be loads of Man U players left, if Man U concede and low scoring game then over-all will move to like 37 probably.

        1. MarvelouSuccess
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          I'm on 56 after BPS. I'm 668k.

          1. JIMMY TUGGINS
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 9 months ago

            Ok.

    2. Jolly Good
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      At 32, not sure I’ll survive this week

  5. jia you
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Triple MUN to save my GW!

    1. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      More chance of seeing pigs fly

    2. Maddocio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Your linked team suggests not

  6. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Who wouldve thought after first 9 gws the top 7 defenders would be

    Pereira
    TAA
    PVA
    Lundstram
    Pieters
    Dunk

    In fact take the top 19 defenders and remove liv defs. Guess what only Pereira is above 6m. Next most expensive is PVA at 5.6

    1. beric
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      First half of every season sees the premium defenders fail to live up to their price tags. Always start cheap and change after xmas

    2. jia you
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      without PVA I'd be all out on 26 points this GW!

  7. Go-on-son
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    The wheels are comin off lads. Help me please. Who would be your top picks for a wildcard team?

    For me I'm looking at mane, kdb, Tammy and yarm.

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Leicester

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      That’s a good base.

    3. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      TAA Auba Tammy Mount and KDB. Rest is up to debate

    4. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Chelsea and Leicester with TAA and Mane and KDB and Lundstram. Job done

    5. beric
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Kun, sterling, kdb

      1. Go-on-son
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        City seem to be trolling me at the mo. Got otamendgi, sterlo and Aguerro but damn it's killing me

    6. AndyCook
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Yarmolenko would not be an essential for me

  8. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Since no one got my quiz on the last page I'll give you the answer. The three players yet to blank this season are Targett, CHO and Martial

  9. Super Nashwan
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    I want vardy who do I get rid of, Haller or pukki?

    1. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Pukki

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Pukki

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Both. Pukki first.

  10. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Who are the top 5 players to own then for the coming weeks? Regardless of price

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Aguero, Auba, Kane, Wilson & Tammy.

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Who do you think they are?

      1. FDMS All Starz
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Stay away from pool because of their fixtures could go either way so I’d say Auba/Vardy/Kdb/Tammy/(Sterling/Kun)

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 17 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Looks about right.

        2. Pacer.
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Honestly, you'd think Liverpool were playing Barcelona circa 5-10 years ago

          Liverpool are fixture proof

    3. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Auba KDB Tammy TAA Pereira

    4. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Mane, Jimenez, Abraham, Mount, Wesley

      1. FDMS All Starz
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Looks like players that did well this GW

        1. Brosstan
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Ok. Salah, Sterling, Aguero, Auba, Kane then.

    5. DVassell
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      KDB, Tammy, Mount, Vardy, Aguero

    6. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Auba, Tammy, Cilson, Mount and CHO/TAA,

  11. PogChamp
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Yikes! What better than a tragic GW than to have 9 away players in the next one.

  12. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    someone tell me Rico is a stupid captain choice next gw, I wasnt really paying attention to him today, was he garbage or good?

    1. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      I'd captain Abraham

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        I dont have abraham, I have Mount. Its between Mount, Kane and Rico. Am seriously considering Rico

      * failed response to Go-On-Son!

  14. Zladan
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Mount likely to get bonus points once adjusted?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Earlier games BPS look final.

      1. Zladan
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Including winning goal baps?

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Earlier games BPS look final.

          1. Zladan
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 9 months ago

            Oh it’s like that huh

            1. Rainer
              • 9 Years
              6 years, 9 months ago

              😆

              Mount did nout bar the goal, missed a big chance and that hurt his BAPs potential.

              1. Zladan
                • 8 Years
                6 years, 9 months ago

                Shame. Saw that sitter too. Take what I can get this game week though!

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

  15. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Pukki and Son to Vardy and Maddison?

  16. Ode
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Adama Traore bandwagon?

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Won't play City every week

    2. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Scored after a year. Big anomally

    3. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      First 2 Prem goals he's ever scored

      1. Bob B
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        False, he scored against West Ham last season

        1. Yank Revolution
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Ahh the announcers were wrong then.

    4. Bob B
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      He'll mainly be playing RWB this season and will be in & out of the team

  17. Bob B
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Team:
    VVD Robertson Otamendi Tomori
    Salah Sterling KDB Mount
    Pukki Abraham

    A. Salah + Pukki > Mane + Vardy
    (442 with Robertson + VVD)

    B. VVD + Dendoncker + Pukki > Reid + Wilson + Maddison (-4)
    (keep Salah & move to 352)

    C. VVD + Greenwood > Rico/Kelly > Wilson

    I've got 7.9 to get rid of ceballos. Turns out he is more of a donkey than a horse! Who to put in?

    1. andres
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      CHO or Maddison

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Maddison will be popular.

      Mount if you don’t have, a CHO punt...

    3. Sad Pablo Arsecobar
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Already have mount in that price range

    TAA Soy Lund
    Salah Sterling Mount Cantwell

    Ceballos!, Kelly, Pieters, 1FT, 0.1M

    I think I am doing at least -8 pon this team... Vardy, Wilson, CHO probably incoming

    1. MTPockets
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Mine's similar and at least one hit is likely

      1. andres
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        who are you getting?

        1. MTPockets
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Depends on KDB news but focus is KDB, Wilson, Mount/Maddison (Salah, Pukki, Cantwell)

  23. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Is Vardy Maddison Pereira too much Leicester? If so which one should I leave out?

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Don't think so if you trust them that much. No better time to stock upthen rn with their fixtures

  24. Thomas Magnum
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    1. Party time

    Have had Pukki for 4 weeks.
    Got him in for 6.9
    If he drops to 7.1, will I lose value?

    1. Slitherene
      • 8 Years

    2. Zimo

      1. Zimo

    If you owned PVA would you hold him through his tough upcoming fixtures?

    1. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      If you could upgrade to pereira could be a winner

      1. jia you
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        he's def one I have my eye on as have no LEI atm

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Nobody really jumps out to take him put for. Can score against anyone and when clean sheets are at a premium he might be worth holding on to.

      1. jia you
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        that's my feeling also mate, leaning towards holding him

  30. Cojones of Destiny
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    lads pls
    a. Jiménez
    b. Wilson

    1. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Jimmy is due a good run and has fixtures. Wolves seem to have turned it around, good time to get him ahead of the curve

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        i think Jimi could be a smart move also. Cant look at him currently myself, but trying to decide between Boly and Doherty, Dohertys minutes are annoying, was hoping they would get knocked out of europa league
