Gameweek 32 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) gets underway this evening as Newcastle United host Wolverhampton Wanderers at St James’ Park.

Kick-off is at 20:00 GMT.

Eddie Howe makes two changes to the side that lost 5-1 at Tottenham Hotspur last time out, with Emil Krafth and Bruno Guimaraes replacing Javier Manquillo and Joe Willock, who has failed to recover from an ongoing knee issue.

Chris Wood leads the line as expected and is flanked by Ryan Fraser and Allan Saint-Maximin in the Magpies’ 4-3-3 formation.

Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson remain on the injury list.

As for the visitors, they also make two changes.

The first arrives in the engine room, with youngster Lee Cundle coming in for Leander Dendoncker (illness), while Hwang Hee-chan slots in further forward in place of Daniel Podence, who misses out with a foot injury.

That means Fabio Silva continues up front, with Raul Jimenez serving the second of a two-match ban.

Ki-Jana Hoever and Ruben Neves remain long-term absentees.


GAMEWEEK 32 LINE-UPS

Newcastle United XI: Dubravka, Krafth, Schar, Burn, Targett, Shelvey, Guimaraes, Joelinton, Fraser, Saint-Maximin, Wood

Subs: Darlow, Dummett, Lascelles, Ritchie, Manquillo, Murphy, Almiron, Gayle, Longstaff

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Sa, Boly, Coady, Kilman, Jonny, Cundle, Moutinho, Marcal, Trincao, Hwang, Silva

    I'm fairly impressed by double Newcastle defense.

    Thoughts on this?

    Robertson, James, Eriksen > Schar, Targett, Fernandes (c) -4?

    I have 2 FTs.

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      wild.

      might work great. but Robbo for me is a season-long hold.
      If Bruno > KDB later on maybe it could work out though.

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        It doesn't matter. I have WC in 34 to fix everything.

        1. RogDog_jimmy
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          oh yeah then have that fun!
          like it.

    2. Sun Jihai

      Sensible enough moves on paper, though Newcastle do play two decent attacking teams. Check out the MUN chances conceded heatmap though for Robbo!

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      It was againat Wolves. I wouldn't be too excited of them after Norwich. Both Lei and CP have better attacks than Wolves.

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        It doesn't matter. I'm WC'ing in 34.

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

          That's a totally different story then 🙂

        2. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Well it does matter. They face those teams in 33

    4. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Im thinking RAN and Foster to Schar and Dubravka, allready own Targett and Bruno.

      1. Hits from the Bong
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Who is your other keeper? Won't Foster and Dubravka be ok to rotate? Nice and cheap

  2. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    So when is the City doubly likely to be announced?

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

      I guess it depends on non PL-related results.

  3. Warby84
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Play;
    A. Odegaard (Sot/Che)
    B. Doherty (BRI)

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Both?

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

      What's your team?

    3. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      A

    4. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      A

  4. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Richarlison>CR7(c), DCL>Greenwood worth a hit?

    1. AutoFill 2021
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      ?!

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      DCL & Richarlison to Ronaldo (c) for a hit.

      Seems like a decent move for me.

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

        I think I do agree.

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

      Difficult to say. Depends on your chip situation and team also. That future double double might be gold.

  5. RogDog_jimmy
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    My single gw players for gw34 are -

    Foster
    TAA
    Robbo
    James
    Salah
    Kulsevski
    Kane

    Seems like getting in a GK for a FT is not a bad idea.
    Otherwise I'm not sure who for a hit is worth replacing any of those singles.

    Got Broja on the bench with two also - over James/Kulu maybe?
    Alonso on the bench could become a doubler too.

    Kinda think I'm ok with Schar, Saka, Martinelli, Sancho as my only doublers - seems weird.

  6. Fintroy
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Got 2 wolves players, -4 for me next week to get rid..... 2 point donkeys at best....

  7. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Thinking of bringing in 3 x DGWers for a -8 and playing BB in 33. Madness?

    Moves would be;

    Foster, Ramsey, Raphinha > Dubravka, Maddison, Fraser

    Yay or nay?

    1. Hits from the Bong
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Foster has double, Fraser went off injured

      1. Hits from the Bong
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Decent fixture and double soon I mean

      2. Danstoke82
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Ahh ok didn’t realise Fraser went off!

        1. Hits from the Bong
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Hamstring I think

    2. fish&chips
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      If your -8 off a GW33 BB, you're probably closer to a 36 or 37 BB aren't you? Might be better just to build towards that instead

  8. Hits from the Bong
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Best move here Tierney to Schar? £0.3m itb

    Foster
    TAA Robertson Doherty
    Salah Son Maddison Saka Martinelli
    Kane Broja

    Sa Mateta Coady Tierney

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Is Tierny injured? Why would you make that move

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Out for season

      2. Hits from the Bong
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Yes he is out for season, Schar has double, looks good, and is on some free kicks

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

          You jave to start him in that case. Who are u going to bench?

          1. Hits from the Bong
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            Broja or Martinelli might look more like missing out by then, Mateta otherwise probably

      3. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Ah was not aware!

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I did Tierney > Schar for this week so I approve of this move.

      1. Hits from the Bong
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Would you move Sa to Dubravka for a hit?

        1. RogDog_jimmy
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Hmmm.
          Not sure I would - but I will likely be moving Sa > someone for the double.
          Or maybe I'll move Foster > Dubravka and keep Sa.

          Haven't looked into it all too much yet.

  9. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Would you BB this?

    Foster (BRE)
    Broja (ars, BUR)
    Weghorst (whu, SOU)
    White (sou, che)

    1. Hits from the Bong
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Won't 36 be better? Give you time to improve on Weghorst. I'm a bit worried about Broja's starts too

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Not a fan of either Weg og Broja tbh. Both are 2 point machines, so you may be right.

        1. Hits from the Bong
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Foster has 2 games in 36 too

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

            Many things (injuries) may happen and being stuck to have BB worthy XV may also cost a lot of points.

    2. fish&chips
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Sure, why not? Should get 14 points minimum and gets it out the way. But I would question whether that is your true bench. Surely some of those should start ahead of a SGWer?

    3. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      If that’s actually who you would bench and your not taking a hit then yes

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

        I agree

  10. fish&chips
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    BB?

    Pope, Doc, alonso, kulu

    Can take a -4 for alonso to someone else if it looks like he won't play

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

      Why not. Schär for example is cheap dgw player.

      1. fish&chips
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Have him in the first team already 🙂 but I've got 1.2m ITB so can bring in anyone up to 7.2m. Maybe VVD. Unfortunately just short of Robbo

  11. Tinslinger
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Bench one:

    Kulu (BHA)
    Laporte (BHA)
    Broja (ARS, bur)

    I’m leaning towards Broja

    1. fish&chips
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Broja is a rotation risk but not being able to play this week may help his cause

  12. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Dubravka or Schmeichel? Schmeichel presumably and hold for the rest of the season? The Dubravka game vs Norwich is tempting though in 33

    1. fish&chips
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Schmeichel is you can afford it

  13. Smokey_Lowkey
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    FH33 draft v1.0:

    Dubravka
    White Cancelo Schar Justin
    Saka Maddison Son Bruno
    Kane Ronaldo

    Foster Broja Livra Brownhill

    0.3 ITB. Any glaring weakness?

  14. Babit1967
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Alright lads, targeting bb in 36 fh 37 and quite happy with the squad but have 2 fts and should start preparing, need to get rid of the wolves players.

    0.6 itb any obvious moves, could downgrade Mahrez to upgrade Hwang or RAN

    De gea
    Doherty Laporte Cancelo Robertson
    Salah Mahrez Kulusevski Martinelli
    Lacazette Kane

    Foster Ramsay Hwang RAN
