The second of three Premier League matches to take place on Sunday sees Wolverhampton Wanderers entertain Newcastle United.

Kick-off at Molineux is at 16:30 BST.

With the exception of Adama Traore (£6.4m), there is good news all round for owners of Wolves’ most-popular Fantasy Premier League assets.

Max Kilman (£4.1m) is handed his third straight start at centre-back, with Romain Saiss (£5.2m) again deployed at left wing-back.

Kilman was the most-bought FPL defender of Gameweek 6, with almost 340,000 Fantasy managers recruiting the budget asset for this fixture.

Traore’s third benching in a row means that Raul Jimenez (£8.5m) is again joined in attack by Daniel Podence (£5.5m) and Pedro Neto (£5.5m), meanwhile.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s only change to the side that beat Leeds United is a like-for-like one, with Ruben Neves (£5.4m) replacing Joao Moutinho (£5.4m) in central midfield.

The team news for the visitors is a bit more complicated, with Steve Bruce making four alterations from his starting XI in Gameweek 6.

There isn’t a change between the posts, however, with Karl Darlow (£5.0m) passed fit to feature.

Emil Krafth (£4.4m) and Joelinton (£5.8m) are both benched, with Isaac Hayden (£4.9m) also among the substitutes as Steve Bruce opts not to risk his half-fit midfielder.

Jonjo Shelvey (£5.4m), who is set for groin surgery, misses out completely.

Fabian Schar (£4.9m), Ryan Fraser (£5.8m), Jacob Murphy (£4.9m) and Miguel Almiron (£5.8m) come into the Magpies’ rather offensive-looking starting XI.


Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Rui Patricio, Boly, Coady, Kilman, Semedo, Dendoncker, Neves, Saiss, Neto, Jimenez, Podence.

Newcastle United XI: Darlow, Schar, Lascelles, Fernandez, Lewis, Almiron, Hendrick, Fraser, Saint-Maximin, Wilson, Murphy.

    Ffs Semedo. What a shocking week

    1. ivantys
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Luckily he's not on BP, would have been more annoyed

  3. Magic Zico

    Why was Saiss taken off for Marcal? Missed that

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Nuno didn't fancy a CS.

    2. ivantys
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Dropped for being poor

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 21 days ago

        Yet they conceded after he went off?

        1. ivantys
          6 years, 21 days ago

          He wasn't doing anything as LWB but the same could be said of Semedo too, they probably didn't have a replacement for Semedo

    3. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Must be in Nunos fantasy team 🙂

    4. Garlana
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Maybe wanted more pace on the pitch, brought traore on at the same time

    5. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Farewell points then? Want to keep him!

      1. Do I Not Like Orange
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 21 days ago

        Might get his CB place back from Kilman now.

    6. Klaren
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Nuno didn’t want to risk his CS points, only Wolves defender he has in his team.

  9. Camzy

    6 years, 21 days ago

    At least Saiss kept a CS I guess... Bloody hell.

  13. _Ninja_
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Which looks best out of these?

    A. Brewster -> Bamford
    B. Podence -> Zaha

    Martinez Forster
    Robbo Saiss Chilwell Lamptey Mitchell
    Salah Son Rodrigez Grealish Podence
    DCL Jimenez Brewster

    1. g40steve
      6 years, 21 days ago

      I went for Bamford, instead of non playing 4.5 fwd

      1. Bushwhacker
        6 years, 21 days ago

        Who’s the non-playing 4.5?

  14. King Carlos
    6 years, 21 days ago

    That was Patricio's fault. Poorly placed wall... Kilman owner.

    3 - Jiménez (33)
    2 - Murphy (28)
    1 - Saïss (23)

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      I'll take this, ta!

  16. Cok3y5murf
    6 years, 21 days ago

    53 from 9.

    Very bad considering I don't have Kane

    1. Fudgy
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Im on 36 without son or Kane you troll

    2. mgilbert86
      6 years, 21 days ago

      such an annoying brag post

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        6 years, 21 days ago

        Don't rise to it. That's what these people need. They probably don't get enough attention from people IRL

    3. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      6 years, 21 days ago

      I’m on 23 plus Kane, Son and Lamptey.
      That’s a very good score

    4. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      No it's not and you know it.

    5. Garlana
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Great score

      1. Garlana
        6 years, 21 days ago

        -_-

    6. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Obviously if Kane goes mental it’s below average, but unlikely

      1. Lazaretti
        6 years, 21 days ago

        He should score 10 , sorry maybe 9 +bps

    7. Manani
      6 years, 21 days ago

      always see people bragging 'low score' in a low scoring game week

    8. GENERATION X
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Why do people even bothet responding.

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 21 days ago

        Everybody is drunk

    9. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      😆

    10. Dthinger

      6 years, 21 days ago

      Jerk

  17. Kodap
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Roll the FT for another week?

    Martinez (Steer)

    Trent - Saiss - Lamptey (Taylor & Dallas)
    Salah - Son - Zaha - Podence (Burke)
    DCL - Jimmy - Kane

    0.6m itb, 1FT.

  18. AzzaroMax99
    6 years, 21 days ago

    What a day.
    Digne red, DCL 1 pointer.
    And now in a few mins Saiss with bps and Wilson assist.
    This is why this game is so attractive 😀

  19. Eleven Hag
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Which is the better move here to get Kane?

    A) Jimenez + Robbo âž¡ Kane + Cresswell
    B) Jimenez + Ings âž¡ Kane + Antonio
    C) Jimenez + Sterling âž¡ Kane + Rashford/Pulisic

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      I don't think it's worth tearing your team up for Kane at this point. Losing any of those guys you're removing is a mistake imo.

      1. Eleven Hag
        6 years, 21 days ago

        Thnx mate, most would captain him next two GWs and thought it could kill me

    2. Scrumper
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      I'm currently considering A) and C).

      I'll prob go C) but might do Bale instead as temporary spurs attack triple up (never thought I'd utter those words...)

    3. Gentle_Turks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Keep Jimenez for next three.

  20. Over Midwicket
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Just raged transferred Bamford (C) in for a -4 for juicy MNF

    1. FPL_trail_runner
      6 years, 21 days ago

      A sure fire strategy to hate playing the game longterm

      Half the battle in this game is patience and holding your players long enough so they can score points.

  21. WVA
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 21 days ago

    FFS ML rival has Saiss! How do people get so lucky?

    1. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      I have Saiss as well, and after Salah (c) and double Pool defence yesterday I'm not going to feel guilty about it at all.

  22. Manani
    6 years, 21 days ago

    ditched jimenez this week for Kane. oof

    1. Coys96
      6 years, 21 days ago

      So did I but Kane can outscore

  23. JJeyy
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Saiss with a cheeky 7 pointer

  24. ivantys
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Jimmy is such a BP magnet since their games are always low scoring his one goal always meant 2-3 BP

  25. Piggs Boson
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Jimenez and Saiss 😀

  26. Rainer
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Murphy’s Law.

  27. FPL Daniel
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Are Jimmy pts a rank killer?

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Nahhh

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Ownership tells you.

  28. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Brewster to Bamford for free?
    Have 1 FT and 1.3 ITB.
    Other option is to save and build towards getting Bruno in after 2 GWs.

    Have this team:

    Martinez Steere
    TAA James Dallas Lamptey Mitchell
    Salah Sterling Son Foden Podence
    DCL Ings Brewster

  29. afsr
    6 years, 21 days ago

    1) Who to change Digne to? Keane? Chilwell? Someone else under 6.0?
    2) Do i do Jimenez -> Bamford as a paid transfer?

  30. Jack Burton

    Going forward chaps I would like to get some west ham in Antonio first priority but his injuries worry me any other hammers worth a shout Bowen maybe thanks in advance

    1. CaptMidnight

      1. Jack Burton
