Spurs are looking to get back on track after losing 2-0 to Manchester United on Wednesday, while the visitors are one of the Premier League’s form sides and arrive in the capital full of confidence.

As for the team news, Antonio Conte makes five changes to his starting XI, with wing-backs Matt Doherty and Ivan Perisic – who went into Gameweek 13 off the back of two successive starts – among those dropping out.

Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski remain sidelined.

For Newcastle, it’s just the one change as Joe Willock replaces Jacob Murphy, who is a substitute.

    Bailey, Almiron, Andreas putting the premium mids to shame this week

  3. Josh.E
    4 years, 18 days ago

    almiron is catching my attention

  4. Digital-Real
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Lovely, this means Perisic back for Bournemouth after the Sess howler

    1. Rainer
      4 years, 18 days ago

      That ain't on Sess, hospital pass.

      1. Digital-Real
        4 years, 18 days ago

        He's having a terrible game. Wouldn't be surprised if Perisic comes on at HT

  5. Feloh

    Conte plays boring football. Was the easiest game of the season for Man United when we played them.

    1. Rainer
      4 years, 18 days ago

      They are rancid!

      Won't take too many bad results for their fans to turn.

      1. Bushwhacker
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Conte usually turns first!

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Last season in the last third they were really good, I'm not sure how they can be so poor in comparison now. They were horrendous against ManUtd. Another few bad results and I wonder if a Conte implosion will be imminent

  6. Nomar
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Salah to Almiron

    1. RICICLE
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Yep

  7. Kaneyonero
    4 years, 18 days ago

    C'mon Almiron grab another

  8. Collie01

    Any other Wilson owners still seeing just 1pt for him currently on the FPL website?

    1. RICICLE
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Patience

    2. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Yes - just the same

  9. Scalper
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Dier on 1 bp!

    1. RICICLE
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Such a flawed bps system as always

  10. adstomko
    4 years, 18 days ago

    We just need Jack Grealish to tell the England dressing room before the first game they've had an amazing season. Then England will win the World Cup

    1. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Via Skype I hope.

  11. Tcheco
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Conte Mourinho, Nuno, Simeone etc are history. Football has moved on.

  12. Pep's Money Laundry
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Time to go 5 in midfield and start Almiron & Pereira every week

  13. JBG
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Howe masterclass so far. He knew Lloris would return to his average self today.

  14. Bartowski
    4 years, 18 days ago

    A couple more transfer windows and Newcastle are going to be serious contenders.

    1. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Its Spurs. They’re miles off City and Arsenal ; the league is poor this year.

      1. Bartowski
        4 years, 18 days ago

        I'm not talking about Spurs and Newcastle drew with City last time they played.

  15. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Newcastle 2 goals from 0.07G what the heck, Spurs xG over 0.7 and nowt.

    Weird week!

    1. JBG
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Look above.

  16. TheBiffas
    4 years, 18 days ago

    37 points on bench, 35 on pitch haha

    1. Josh.E
      4 years, 18 days ago

      am not checking my points this week lol, am planning for GW14 already

  17. FPL Scoop

    4 years, 18 days ago

    Wish I had faith in Newcastle over Spurs! Trippier on my bench, Doherty in my XI… this only ends one way.

    But honestly kudos to Eddie Howe and the job he and Newcastle are doing this season.

    1. Feloh
      4 years, 18 days ago

      What's your current OR. I've moved from 22k to 200k in a space of 3 weeks.

  18. Make United Great Again
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Thank goodness Conte didn’t join United.

    1. JBG
      4 years, 18 days ago

      This. I remember so many MU fans crying over him.

      1. Make United Great Again
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Me too! Couldn’t believe it. Imagine watching this football every week.

        1. JBG
          4 years, 18 days ago

          Would have fallen asleep.

      2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        4 years, 18 days ago

        MU fans crying? I thought they just worshipped women beaters and rapists?

    2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      4 years, 18 days ago

      I bet he feels the same.

  19. DMP
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Mourinho operated some miracles with those United and Spurs teams.

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      4 years, 18 days ago

      And still he's looked down upon in England. Not denying his methods and style are exactly always pleasing, but he got that 2nd place finish with ManUtd is still beyond my comprehension. Also robbed of the League Cup final he got Spurs to too

      1. George Sillett
        4 years, 18 days ago

        "And still he's looked down upon in England"
        Why single out England ? I think you'll find that he's upset people everywhere he's been for balance. FYI I think he is under appreciated by many .

        1. DMP
          4 years, 18 days ago

          He s still loved in Oporto, Milan and Madrid tough ..

          1. George Sillett
            4 years, 18 days ago

            Not by everyone!

        2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
          4 years, 18 days ago

          He's still quite well appreciated in Italy and Madrid for sure

  20. Nomar
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Not sure whose been more disappointing, Salah or Son?

    1. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 18 days ago

      We’ll know when they play.

  21. g40steve
    4 years, 18 days ago

    LOL Miggy has more points than Salah 🙂

    1. TheBiffas
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Over the season?

      1. g40steve
        4 years, 18 days ago

  22. George Sillett
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Although my FPL GW has been terrible the football today has been a very good watch.

      4 years, 18 days ago

      1. TheBiffas
        4 years, 18 days ago

        We said that about forest (I also own and have no intention to sell him)

    2. Make United Great Again
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Never bought him x

    3. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Not before Leeds

    4. Royal5
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Gotta keep vs Leeds

    5. SirWenger
      4 years, 18 days ago

      1. g40steve
        4 years, 18 days ago

        No, Leicester gave up 20 chances today & Haulands setting records

    6. Pep's Money Laundry
      4 years, 18 days ago

      My captain against Leeds

      1. g40steve
        4 years, 18 days ago

        No chance without some key players returning to midfield.

        1. Bushwhacker
          4 years, 18 days ago

          Thiago will be back so will Nunez.

  26. Total Slotball
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Conte football is easy to buy into when you’re going for the Title. This Spurs side, not so much...

    1. TheBiffas
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Highly overrated manager

      1. Total Slotball
        4 years, 18 days ago

        A move back to Juve suits all parties

    2. Qaiss
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Conte can’t build a team. He also hates competition and runs away when he’s not winning.

      1. Total Slotball
        4 years, 18 days ago

        He knows they’ve got zero chance of winning the title over City and Conte only manages teams to win leagues.

        1. Qaiss
          4 years, 18 days ago

          He came to Spurs to win a cup and end their trophy drought, looking like a genius. Which explains only the 18 month contract he had. He’s a very good manager but he’s incapable of actually building a team. His signings this summer, for a CL side, were a bit odd to say the least.

  27. TheBiffas
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Let's go Carlos sainz

    1. Bobby Digital
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Let's goo! My turbo driver...

      1. TheBiffas
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Well played, I've left it on Charles all season

    2. George Sillett
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Bit early for that

      1. TheBiffas
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Pre-emptive celebs

  28. Ingstagram
    4 years, 18 days ago

    I don't get it

    Spurs didn't look like this last season With Conte

    Neither did 2017Chelsea, yh?

    1. ZeBestee
      4 years, 18 days ago

      They dont have a creative midfielder. Not replacing Eriksen is their undoing. With Son and Kane, they could have scored loads with creativity in the middle of the park.

      1. Ingstagram
        4 years, 18 days ago

        And for Chelsea that was??

        Matic??

        Cos I'm not sure I remember Fabregas always getting starts

    2. George Sillett
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Conte has a limited shelf life at every club he manages although the rot doesn't usually set in for another season yet.

  29. ZeBestee
    4 years, 18 days ago

    How did Brentford lose by a huge score margin? Were they bad? Couldn't even score a single goal as well.

    1. Jarnathan
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Villa looked a different side. I think the intensity and desire took Brentford by surprise and they never recovered. Great goals by Villa too

    2. Jarnathan
      4 years, 18 days ago

      I'm hoping that game serves as an advertisement to potential managers who'll see the teams potential

  30. Scots Gooner

    4 years, 18 days ago

    Wait - Tottenham are at home?
