Leicester unchanged as Everton switch to three at the back

The final two matches of Gameweek 14 take place simultaneously this afternoon, with kick-off at 16:30 GMT.

Manchester United host Aston Villa at Old Trafford, while third-placed Leicester City take on Everton at the King Power Stadium.

The Foxes can move back to within eight points of league leaders Liverpool with a victory over the Toffees this afternoon.

With his side on a five-match winning run, Brendan Rodgers has unsurprisingly named an unchanged team for the sixth game in a row.

Jamie Vardy (£9.8m), the most-captained player overall and in the top 10k in Gameweek 14, keeps up his ever-present record under his manager.

The Leicester striker hasn’t blanked since Gameweek 8 and averages 8.67 points per match in home games this season.

The Foxes come into this game having not conceded a league goal since Gameweek 9.

Marco Silva makes three changes to the side that was beaten by Norwich City last weekend.

Michael Keane (£5.4m) joins Yerry Mina (£5.3m) and Mason Holgate (£4.4m) in a back three, while Alex Iwobi (£5.7m) replaces the injured Theo Walcott (£6.2m) further forward.

The other change sees Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.8m) oust Cenk Tosun (£5.7m) up front.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer makes one change from Gameweek 13, with Juan Mata (£6.2m) replacing Phil Jones (£4.8m).

That alteration would seem to indicate that Solskjaer has moved back to a 4-2-3-1, with Mata joining Daniel James (£6.2m) and Marcus Rashford (£8.7m) in the attacking trident behind Anthony Martial (£7.8m).

Budget FPL defender Brandon Williams (£4.1m) is again preferred at left-back, with positional rivals Ashley Young and Luke Shaw (both £5.4m) on the bench.

Dean Smith names the same Aston Villa side that beat Newcastle on Monday, so there is no place for Marvelous Nakamba (£4.4m) in midfield.


Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Pereira, Evans, Söyüncü, Chilwell, Ndidi, Ayoze Pérez, Tielemans, Maddison, Barnes, Vardy.

Everton XI: Pickford, Digne, Holgate, Keane, Mina, Sidibe, Davies, Sigurdsson, Iwobi, Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin.

Manchester United XI: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelöf, Maguire, Williams, Andreas Pereira, Fred, James, Mata, Rashford, Martial.

Aston Villa XI: Heaton, Guilbert, Konsa, Mings, Targett, McGinn, Luiz, Hourihane, El Ghazi, Wesley, Grealish.

    Who do you prefer from gw17-20

        Thinking same. Jomenez has played a lot without rest and fatigue may kick in.

        Plus united and rashford have better fixtures

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years

  9. g40steve

    1. Fred54

  16. Yank Revolution
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Ok, owning Vardy (C), Soy, Maddison and Martial, this is just about the worst first halves I could have had. Here's to high scoring second halves!

    Sorry to all Vardy owners, brought him in this week and (C) him... it's all my fault 🙁

    1. Pass
      • 10 Years

      Lol. Same here

  22. SHOOTER MCGINN
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Ah, another epic gameweek of excellent fixtures coupled with a terrible FPL score.

  23. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Martial needs to go even if he scores a second half hat trick.

    Either Perez or Pulisic for me

    1. Podge
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Alli

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Might double Spurs mids. Altough want to have something itb when Ings gets injures

    2. Fudgy
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      He will bag Vs spurs

    3. Maddi Son
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I went Zaha which gives me exact funds for Maddison > Alli next GW.

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        You are selling Maddison? Think again and look at those fixtures

    4. F4L
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      not if McTominay is back

  24. Lukakuna
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Likely to stand as an own goal?

    1. F4L
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      yes final decision

    2. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      100%

    3. Gobigorgohome
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      100% bcoz it is

    4. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

    5. TheBrazilianRonaldo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Assisted by Rash

  25. F4L
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    not the best first half as a Chilwell owner, Vardy captainer and Grealish bencher 😆

    1. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Ouch.

      1. F4L
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        can only get better 😀

    2. TheBrazilianRonaldo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Never bench Grealish!

      1. 7shadesofsmoke
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        why are you named after a footballer's pubes?

        1. TheBrazilianRonaldo
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Great question. Ever since Ronaldo had his pubes shaped to look like the real Ronaldo. Some say Nike were behind it

          1. 7shadesofsmoke
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

    1. TheBrazilianRonaldo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      At least you’re slim these days

    2. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Same but it looked solid at deadline. Not sure what went wrong. 🙁

  29. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Someone will tell the ref he missed a penalty hattrick for Vardy and the ref will subsequently award the three penalties in the second half.

    47', 79' and 90'+2

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Gotta go for the match ball

      6 unawarded pens and he just might get the ball in his face

  30. Sim Simma

    Heaton to save a 2nd half pen to save my GW

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years

      Rashford to score a peno in the second half to save my GW
