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.

    Coady and Saiss please save my gw

      Jinxed it now.

  2. Tinkermania
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    What's up with Traore? Benched too many times. They look more dangerous when he plays though.

    1. beric
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Supersub

    2. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Tactical. Comes in when everyone is tired

    3. Joey Tribbiani
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Traore is one my favourite players, at times so unstoppable

      1. Tinkermania
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I am sure if the whole squad went on Auction, he would cost the most. Big potential.

    4. Plant Based FPLer
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Nuno Espirto is dispiriting him. He looked demoralised coming on as a sub last match. It's going to be the same today.

      1. Third Eye Vision
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Nuno Dispirito

        1. Plant Based FPLer
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          That's good. I'm using that!

  3. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Marcal comes in for Saiss around 70min then Newcastle scores on the counter

  4. DRIZ ✅
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Wolves are missing Jota

    1. Tinkermania
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Jota was benched a fair few times too.

  5. Kodap
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    That skill by Podence was phenomenal.

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      3 star skill move

  7. Bavarian

    Jim to Ings easy move

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Would love to do this but too many other fires to put out! Strange how poor Jimi has become

      1. Plant Based FPLer
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        He's mainly a good header-er of the ball. Like DCL. They don't care much about improving much else.

  8. Dacra
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Jimi to Podence to max 10.4 mid? I have too much cash itb..

    1. Dacra
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Podence, nothing to do with Jimi, can't type..

    2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      0.1 short of Fernandes.. Ouch
      You have Son already I assume? If not then surely Son

      1. Dacra
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Indeed. And yep.

        1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          You could get Rashford or James but I would really want Bruno..
          Any enabler moves possible? and get Bruno a week or two later maybe

          1. Dacra
            • 11 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah, could easily downgrade a defender, saving might be best, ta.

  9. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Might not be a fun FPL asset to own but this Podence fella is a joy to watch at times

  10. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Don’t forget Palace V wolves next week if you’ve been struggling to get to sleep

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Should be a exciting end to end game, no time for sleep 🙂

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        The way this season is going it will genuinely be 3-3

        1. Hughes Your Daddy
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          😀

  11. Utopsis
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    How does Saiss absolutely dominate the BAPs most weeks? At least Kilman made a last ditch challenge, what exactly has Saiss done of note?

    1. djoker_nole
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      FPL Towers have him

    2. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Newcastle didn't even attack yet all Wolves defenders dominating the BPS table lol.

    3. JJO
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      They just give random baps to defenders,nothing to do with anything on field

      1. Utopsis
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        It's really fascinating

  12. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Podence reminds me of Hazard

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Haha your entertaining us during this snoozefest

    2. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Poor man's Hazard tbf

    3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Lol

    4. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Very lively, ball glued to his feet.

    5. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      the Real Madrid version, yeah.

    6. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      His size?

  13. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Donkey mad

  14. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Just shows how bad this game is if the big highlight being replayed was a skill from podence

  15. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Maybe triple Wolves defence is the way...

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Definitely while I don't own one!

    2. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Kilman + 1 other looking "essential"

    3. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Clean sheet looking good against Palace, not sure on next 4 after that.

  16. Fudgy
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Wolves punishing me as expected

  17. Gobigorgohome
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Saiss and Kilmannn come on..
    save my GW

  18. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Kilman is a bit of a BAP merchant, isn't he?

  19. HollywoodXI
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    I own Jamal Lewis. No need to panic Wolves owners. They will definitely score.

  20. DRIZ ✅
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Would love it if Newcastle score, would love it

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Poor decision not having Wolves defense.

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I can afford one now Kilman is playing

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Ok?

    3. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      -1

    4. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      They won't. Worthless team. A gift for all the wolves defence owners

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        we said that about Fulham and they still scored

      2. Amey
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Need ASM goal 😀
        For NAL ... Ha ha

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Don't hold your breath

          1. Amey
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah ... Agree

    5. Amey
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Amen

    6. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Always chance of a cheeky Wilson penalty

  21. DAZZ
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Sigh. Wolves are destroying me. Their fixtures were so promising

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Their fixtures are changing to sour soon.

      1. Free Hat
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Probably the time they will start scoring again

  22. WVA
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    I don't think I've had a clean sheet this season

    1. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      So you didn’t own TAA against Chelsea?

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Oh yes one 6 pointer!

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Whose fault is that?

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        The defenders?

  23. Catastrophe
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Advice appreciated chaps! 2 FT, 1.8 ITB.

    Martinez
    Saiss, Chilwell, Digne*
    Salah, Son, Fernandes, Barkley, Bissouma
    Kane, DCL

    (Steer, Brewster, Justin, Mitchell)

    A) Digne -> Kilman
    B) Digne -> ?
    C) Digne & Bissouma -> Kilman & Jorginho
    D) Digne & Brewster -> Kilman & Bamford

    C and D leaves enough ITB for Barkley -> Rodriguez after

    Cheers

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      D

  24. Flair
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    You guys realize Wolves are Second Half FC for a reason right?

    1. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      People here don’t. If their cap hasn’t hauled by half time, it’s all doom and gloom.

    2. Plant Based FPLer
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I didn't. Let's see it then. Without Jota, Doherty and Traore in good spirits, where will this 2nd half magic come from? Neto?

  25. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Bamford Maupay or Adams?

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Bamford more attacking team, misses a few but %ages pay off.

    2. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Bamford

    3. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Bamford

  26. People in Preston
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Kinda weird to CAZOO on AVL and EVE shirts. I thought it was a betting company but apparently its used cars.
    Still weird to see one company sponsoring two teams.

    1. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Haven't heard of Fly Emirates? Seen them on many football team shirts

    2. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Arsenal and Chelsea once had O2 at the same time I think

    3. People in Preston
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I stand corrected. I guess I just didn't know who CAZOO were. Living in Germany.

    4. Morph - Unbelievable Geoff
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Carling used to sponser Rangers and Celtic because if they only sponsored one of them, the other half of Glascow wouldn't drink it.

  27. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Pulisic owners. You keeping for another week?

    1. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Why would you sell?. Chelsea fixtures are great. Im looking to bring him i

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Hasn’t looked good.

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Of course.

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Let’s hope he repays us

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

      Ziyech is getting closer, hold for sure.

    4. Amey
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yup

  28. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    The game is worth watching? Jimi and Saiss owner

    1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      No but you will likely get a CS

    2. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Wolves usually plays well in second half. So yeah id tune in

    3. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      CS secured

  29. DRIZ ✅
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Kieran Dyer making it more of a snoozefest

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

      He should start a fight to liven things up.

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      So boring.

  30. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    If i do jiminez to bamford

    I can get kdb for barnes

    Worth it?

    1. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      He's on 99.8, do it before he rises

    2. Plant Based FPLer
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Seems good.

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah good.

    4. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      If he blanks here I’d say so, wolves look like never scoring more than 1 so it’s hardly scary getting rid of him

    5. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      For free yea
