Many Fantasy Premier League managers are relying on Chelsea assets to bail them out after a disappointing start to Gameweek 23.

With Manchester City largely frustrated by Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon, there is increased pressure on the final three fixtures of the weekend.

As expected Tammy Abraham (£7.9m) starts up-front and is flanked by Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.3m) and Willian (£7.2m).

There is also a third consecutive start at right-back for Reece James (£5.0m), while Andreas Christensen (£4.9m) and Antonio Rüdiger (£6.0m) are chosen at centre-back.

Newcastle are boosted by a return to fitness for winger Allan Saint-Maximin (£5.4m) who starts in a four-man midfield on the opposite flank to Miguel Almirón (£5.8m).

Newcastle United XI: Dúbravka; Willems, Fernández, Lascelles, Clark, Krafth; Almirón, Shelvey, Hayden, Saint-Maximin; Joelinton.

Chelsea XI: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Christensen, Rüdiger, R James; Mount, Jorginho, Kanté; Hudson-Odoi, Abraham, Willian.

    Deeney, who I transferred in last GW, missing a penalty saved by Gazzaniga, the goalkeeper who I just transferred out for McCarthy (1 pointer). You couldn't write it.

        Did soften my wounds a bit, thanks. At least it happened in a generally bad GW for most people.

          Yup. Just got to think that the the players bought couldt still be the better pick in the coming weeks.

      Unlucky lads. Both sets of transfers sound okay on paper, especially the Deeney and McCarthy in. With good fixtures this should come good.
