Budget FPL defender Kilman returns as Podence and Neto lead the line for Wolves

The penultimate match of Gameweek 14 sees Burnley play host to Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Kick-off at Turf Moor is at 17:30 GMT.

The headline team news is the recall of Max Kilman (£4.2m) to the Wolves starting XI after a four-game absence.

Kilman is in for Willy Boly (£5.5m), who was an injury doubt prior to the game and who is only among the substitutes this evening.

Another ‘flagged’ Wolves player, Leander Dendoncker (£4.8m), misses out altogether.

Marcal (£4.8m) and Fabio Silva (£5.2m) are both benched as teenage midfielder Owen Otasowie (£4.5m), Joao Moutinho (£5.2m) and Rayan Aït-Nouri (£5.0m) are also promoted to the starting XI.

The omission of Silva from the line-up will presumably mean that Daniel Podence (£5.5m) and Pedro Neto (£5.9m) will play as a two-pronged strike force tonight.

Not one for making wholesale changes, Sean Dyche has made only one alteration from the side that drew 0-0 with Aston Villa last time out.

Ashley Barnes (£6.0m) is in for Jay Rodriguez (£5.8m) up top.

Neto is the most-owned player on show tonight, closely followed by Kilman.

Not one of the Clarets’ squad has a double-digit ownership, although the in-form Nick Pope (£5.4m) sits in just under 10% of teams.

Pope has a better points-per-match average this season than any other goalkeeper who has made more than one start.

Neto, meanwhile, is the highest-points scorer among sub-£6.0m midfielders.


Burnley XI: Pope, Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor, Brady, Westwood, Brownhill, McNeil, Wood, Barnes.

Wolves XI: Patricio, Semedo, Saiss, Coady, Kilman, Ait-Nouri, Otasowie, Moutinho, Neves, Podence, Neto.

    Burnley so comfortable here, Wolves playing right into their hands. Just call it now at 2-0, not a hope of a Wolves goal.

    Question 1

    Does anyone else feel that the endless focus on chopping and changing for GW 18 and 19 is a distraction from focussing on building a team that will do you right over many weeks?

    I understand their are big points up for grabs but I have seen many people talking about, for example, taking Salah out for KDB, then the converse transfer again for the double GW and other tranfers of a similar ilk.

    If you have value in a player and you want to keep him for the future I don’t see the worth of taking him out for a single game week to then bring him back again a week later.

    Question 2

    Does anyone else feel it is short sighted to be thinking of WC and FH when we face a chance of a Covid distrupted season? Newcastle the only team to be affected so far (and their postponed opponents) but to me it feels plausible we will see more of this as the season goes on. Having the FH and WC may come in handy if this happens...

      I agree with you!!

      If I had a free hit, I might consider it, I don't! By chopping and changing, I would lose out on the £5M made from good transfers, there is no way I will do that to have 2 good weeks and sacrifice losing the 15 players I have!!

      MCcarthy, Mendy

      Robertson, Chilwell, Zouma, Stones, KWP

      Salah, Fernandes, Son, Grealish, Romeu

      Wilson, DCL, Bamford

      1. Not really. I'll FH gw18, the core of my team will be unchanged in gw19 i.e. Salad, Bruno, one of kdb/son, Chilwell and McCarthy. I'll in fact improve my forwards moving on.

      2. I'll still have WC/TC available. Hard to imagine there's going be another 15-game week.

      Fror question 2, you can only prepare for what you know. There's no point saving FH for a possible blank because of COVID later on. The way BGW18 and DGW19 are lined up (Teams which play in the blank don't have a DGW), makes it incredibly difficult for not using the FH in one of the weeks, if you want to maximise the points in both weeks. Of course, using both FH and WC up is too risky with FA Cup blanks coming up in GW29 and forward. You do need to save one imo.

    @BenDinnery
    Barkley will be back in GW15. "We didn't want to take a risk in the colder weather tonight [vs WBA]. It's one of those injuries. He'll be fit for Palace." Ezri Konsa (illness) "should be fine" after missing the last two.
