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.

    Signs of Marcal starting next week.

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Saiss was crap tbf

  2. Zilla
    6 years, 21 days ago

    nice cs finally

  3. Flair

    This surely nails Kilman's spot. If Nuno trusted Saiss more, he would have moved him to LCB.

    1. Utopsis
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Not necessarily - Kilman has trained in that position all week and is playing well enough, Saiss hasn't. Saiss has been pretty consistent at LCB for Wolves previously so every chance he can retain his spot.

      Either way, Kilman and Swiss owners should pay particular attention to their 1st sub next week

    Score now Newcastle!!

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Hot topic needed for Saiss replacements with him now being finished at Wolves.

    1. g40steve
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Reguilon for me

  7. Over Midwicket
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Saiss needs to go. Especially if Kilman is doing the same for 1mil less

    1. George Agdgdgwngo
      6 years, 21 days ago

      This

  8. Totalfootball
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Time to cheer for goals for Toon and Jimmy.

    1. TomSaints
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Please no haha

    2. Reggie Nainggolan
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Nah still got Kilman

  10. _Ninja_
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Podence and Saiss just doubled my score lol.

  11. Brosstan
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Come on wipe that CS my Newcastle bois!

  12. Michelle Davin
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Podence looked lethal.wtf nuno

    1. g40steve
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Same as last week Neto was rubbish but stayed on?

    2. Ninjaa
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Yeah agreed looked like the only one that was going to create something

  13. Begbie.
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Not sure if that's good or bad for Saiss owners. He could've put him back at CB and took Kilman off. Looks like Kilman might be first choice at CB for the time being.

    1. Begbie.
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Good that it's CS points obviously, but long term**

    2. Dickie1898
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Hmm, Kilman comfortable during the game in that position. Might not have wanted to disrupt the back 3 with 20 mins to go. But yeah, certainly a worry now.

  14. TheSteel
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Podence a frustrating own. Think i gotta ship him

    1. Digital-Real
      6 years, 21 days ago

    2. have you seen cyan
      6 years, 21 days ago

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

      How did you come to that conclusion?

    4. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Get kilman and then it’s either or!

  16. Shark Team

  17. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

    1. Salah’s Sonnet

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

    COME ON YOU TOOOOOOOOON

  19. Kodap
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Who do i need to look at changing first?

    Martinez (Steer)

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

    0.6m itb, 1FT.

    1. Over Midwicket
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Romain Saïss.

  20. TomSaints
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Jammy Saiss and Podence owners.

    Clean sheet banked

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

    NEW goal to give Saiss baps!

    1. Over Midwicket
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Newcastle defenders would get baps..

  22. ivantys
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Saiss no longer nailed. Unlucky owners

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

      He was never nailed.

  23. FPL Daniel
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Looks like Kilman is nailed

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      6 years, 21 days ago

      How? How does it?

  24. Brosstan
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Saiss rested for next week. Kilman getting dropped

    1. FPL Daniel
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Hell no

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        6 years, 21 days ago

        Why not?

  25. ace3.1415
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Why sub off podence?

  26. Salah’s Sonnet
    6 years, 21 days ago

    What’s all thisabout Saiss now being done etc?

    News to me?

  27. Salan
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Saiss 6 points nailed. Great.

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

    Podence their best player. Strange to take him off

    1. g40steve
      6 years, 21 days ago

      This

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

    Podence so frustrating to own. Looks threatening, barely returns

  30. That Was Easy!
    6 years, 21 days ago

    Any thoughts on this dumpster fire? Having an utterly disastrous start here.

    Ryan
    TAA Robbo Saiss Konsa
    Salah Son Bruno Podence
    Maupay Kane

    Steer; Alzate, Mitchell, Davis...1.9itb, 1FT

    1) Davis > Bamford
    2) Hold FT, bring in Antonio GW8
    3) Hold FT, ship out TAA and upgrade elsewhere (Davis > DCL, Podence > Grealish, etc)?

    1. That Was Easy!
      6 years, 21 days ago

      Kane is not Kane, he is Jimmy 🙂 whoops.
