Tuesday’s FPL team news: Edouard in for Benteke as Rashica and Cantwell miss out

A full midweek schedule of Premier League matches kicks off tonight, with Newcastle United v Norwich City and Leeds United v Crystal Palace getting Gameweek 14 underway.

The games begin at 19:30 and 20:15 BST respectively.

Newcastle, who remain the only Premier League team without a win, make three changes from their Gameweek 13 loss at Arsenal, with Ciaran Clark (£4.4m) and Jamal Lewis (£4.2m) replacing the suspended Jamaal Lascelles (£4.4m) and Matt Ritchie (£4.9m), with Javier Manquillo (£4.0m) also getting the nod ahead of Emil Krafth (£4.3m).

Elsewhere, Dwight Gayle (£5.3m) features as a substitute having recovered from a hamstring injury.

As for Norwich, Dean Smith makes two changes, as Lukas Rupp (£4.4m) comes in for Mathias Normann (£4.5m), who is set to see a specialist due to a recurring pelvic issue, while Christos Tzolis (£4.8m) replaces the injured Milot Rashica (£5.2m), who is out with a groin problem.

Todd Cantwell (£5.3m), meanwhile, is also absent with a Covid-related issue.

The Canaries have taken seven points from their last three games, with Fantasy interest mostly centred around Teemu Pukki (£5.8m), who has scored two goals during that time.

Marcelo Bielsa makes three changes from the XI that drew 0-0 at Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday, with Pascal Struijk (£4.4m), Mateusz Klich (£5.4m) and Tyler Roberts (£4.8m) coming in for Junior Firpo (£4.7m), Rodrigo (£6.3m) and Jack Harrison (£5.6m), all of whom are substitutes.

Patrick Vieira also makes three switches, with Luka Milivojevic (£5.4m), Michael Olise (£5.4m) and Christian Benteke (£6.4m) dropping out for Jeffrey Schlupp (£5.4m), Odsonne Edouard (£6.5m) and Jordan Ayew (£5.8m).

Influential defender Joachim Andersen (£4.5m) misses out again with a hamstring injury.

  21. Paqueta Rice

    2 years, 4 months ago

    Thank you Raphina !!! Terrible penalty but thank you so much

    1. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      That is a super pen, he makes Guaita make the first move so then he just need to put it out of his reach as Guaita then is on the wrong foot and then you as a goalie lose a lot of the power to throw yourself in the other direction. Body language.

  22. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Palace are awful

  23. Firmino
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    What are these baps??

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah a joke. Raph the most creative player on the pitch and scored. Somehow Meslier is up there for making 1 save LOL

      1. jason_ni
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Mccoists motm as well lol

  24. HonestBlatter
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Raph and Pukki I'll take this

  25. Shultan
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Raph & guita owner
    With my recent luck, was expecting Raph to shoot wide!

  26. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Yes! Raphinha and Pukki tonight!!

  27. The Suspended One
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Guaita owners in the mud

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Own Guaita and raphinha so softens the blow

      1. Vlad Tepes
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Same but would rather see him save it so I can catch rival

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Rival has neither but save might’ve got us more points

  28. Pat Bonner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    No bonus for raphinha in a 1-0 game with barely a shot on goal?

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I don't know how or why but he always manages to avoid bonus. Think it's the amount of risky passes and runs he makes that aren't successful. If it's not that then it's him taking his shirt off

  29. JBG
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Finally something from Raphinha!

  30. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    With Brentford next its time to get Raph in if you ahvent already. I and others have a view that Raph is essentially a season keeper. If we didnt have that thought, we wouldnt have all these points
    tbh Brentford will be easy for Leeds anyway, probably 5-0

    1. HonestBlatter
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      True. Keeping him since now also on pens

    2. Podge
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Relax

      I'm getting rid after the BRE game. Very tricky fixtures.
