Mitrovic and Cairney return for Fulham as Wilson leads Newcastle attack

997 Comments
Share

Scott Parker has recalled Aleksandar Mitrovic (£5.5m) and Tom Cairney (£5.3m) to the Fulham line-up for their Gameweek 14 trip to Newcastle.

The two players have not started a match together since Gameweek 8 although the Cottagers have improved in their absence, picking up a win and two draws since Gameweek 9.

Bobby De Cordova-Reid (£5.3m) and Ruben Loftus-Cheek (£5.9m) are the men to make way as Ivan Cavaleiro (£5.3m) returns to the flanks of attacking midfield.

Accordingly, Mitrović and Cairney have reclaimed their centre-forward and number 10 roles respectively.

The main Fantasy Premier League interest tonight, of course, is in Callum Wilson (£6.6m), currently owned by 17.4% of managers worldwide.

The former Bournemouth man has averaged six points per game since returning from injury, although Fulham’s defence has improved in that time, conceding just three goals against Manchester City and Liverpool combined.

Newcastle United XI: Darlow; Dummett, Clark, Fernández, Yedlin; Ritchie, Shelvey, S Longstaff, Almirón; Joelinton, C Wilson.

Fulham XI: Areola; A Robinson, Andersen, Adarabioyo, Aina; Zambo Anguissa, Lemina; Lookman, Cairney, Cavaleiro; Mitrović.

          Check fan forums. I can't say for sure whether he will definitely be back. Fans felt he needed a rest after poor performances. That could mean just a rest or dropped. I think it is more a rest

      Feel as though the defence needs a real shake up, and where needs to change most. How do the below sound guys?

      James + Grealish >> Robertson + Soucek

      Can then use the remaining 0.6 left over for future amendments?

        Grealish has CP next and Barkley might be back. Selling him now is one of the biggest potential risks that I can imagine.

      Insiders have revealed there is still even a possibility of him (Reece James) facing West Ham and the injury being carefully managed for the time being.

      The reason why this should be considered a cause for concern, however, is that the possibility of needing an operation has been mentioned too. If surgery is required, the 21-year-old will be bound to miss games.
