Following on from Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Chelsea, there are three more Gameweek 15 matches taking place at 14:00 GMT.

Unai Emery makes two changes for Aston Villa in his first game in charge, with Lucas Digne and Jacob Ramsey coming in for Ashley Young and Danny Ings. That means Emiliano Martinez recovers, despite coming off with a head injury in Gameweek 14.

Erik ten Hag, meanwhile, makes just one alteration from midweek, with Marcus Rashford in for the suspended Bruno Fernandes.

At St Mary’s, Ralph Hasenhuttl makes four changes from last weekend’s defeat at Crystal Palace. Armel Bella-Kotchap and Juan Larios are recalled, while Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Theo Walcott also start.

As for the visitors, Callum Wilson leads the line, with Eddie Howe’s only change arriving on the wing, as Jacob Murphy comes in for the suspended Joelinton.

In east London, West Ham change their entire starting XI from their midweek Europa Conference League win. The most significant switch arrives in the number 10 position, with Lucas Paqueta replacing Flynn Downes. Gianluca Scamacca, meanwhile, is preferred up front to Michail Antonio.

At Crystal Palace, Patrick Vieira makes three alterations, with Nathaniel Clyne, Cheick Doucoure and Jordan Ayew coming in for Joel Ward, Luka Milivojevic and the injured Odsonne Edouard.

      Only just seen that. Pathetic.

      I've seen him play twice in the flesh across this last month, as well as on TV.

      He's been absolute rubbish. Team hasn't helped, but he's been weak on/off the ball, very poor tackling and just.. I don't know.

      I know he had some illness recently but he's got to pull it together because he's been incredibly disappointing.

      Can't even bench him with the injuries/fixtures we have.

    6 points lost in last few mins of those games (Pope and Eze). 200 quid first prize for top at Xmas in biggest M.L. all but gone after leading for ages...

    Zaha you legend!

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      This is why you keep Zaha, despite the days he trolls you.

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        There's a lot of players like that in the same price range. Score well over the season, but hard to predict.

      dude sersiouly. I was so ready to transfer him outfor rashford until the foden news. so glad I went foden to rashford instead. ZAHA LEGEND!

    If Pep Coached Newcastle....

    (1) Almiron to the bench for a month, immediately
    (2) Bruno G to deep, deep Mid and forbidden from shooting
    (3) Tripp, he would only be used in Carabao

    1. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      If that would help Newcastle win the Premier League, then why not?

      1. Capocannonieri
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I think there should be a Pop Up reminder before entering this site. This is not a Fan Club site for particular teams. I could not care less about MCIs fortunes, just my FPL fortunes.

        1. banskt
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          I thought we were talking about Newcastle winning the Premier League, not MCI. And, yes I wish to see Newcastle winning the Premier League.

          It is difficult to draw a boundary between FPL manager and club fans. Your comment was about Pep managing Newcastle; and not related to FPL. Apologies if I got it wrong.

    Mount + Chilwell > Trossard + TAA 2 FT?

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Looks good, yeah.

  7. dansmusen
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    From 300k to 1.4m in three GW really is something. Benched 60 points during that time and top of the iceberg selling Zaha and putting C on Cancelo.

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Captained him too. Was at just over 4K a few weeks ago and have now thrown away top at Xmas 200 quid in my biggest money league.

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      From inside 1 million to over 3 million OR in same time, C Cancelo also.

  8. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I did Zaha > Eze to fund KDB. Eze was matching Zaha until that winner. I was about to be so smug as well

  9. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I fkin hate Howe for already two times ruining Pope cs by getting a clown for Trippier in already won game for one minute just to lose the cs.

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Yep.

  10. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Sold Zaha LOL
    Newcastle score 4. No Wilson involvement LOL

    1. Not again Shirley
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Surely one of the Newcastle defenders was trippier though.

  11. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Foden to Zaha next week?

  12. Podge
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Could do with a show from Salad here

  13. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    If not for WC break, I would just stop playing - played Mitro and Foden, sold Zaha, got Wilson, Neco first on the bench in front of White and Andreas…

  14. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Would u do it ?
    Saka & Solanke >

    1. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

    2. Podge

    4. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      23% EO, lower than Dalot and Wilson!

  17. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Getting ready to watch the match.

    Points prediction for

    Mo and Firmino?

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      2 and 2

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        So times bot by 10 🙂

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          *both

      2. Capocannonieri
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Firmino gave me 2

  18. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    My double transfer cost me -19 this week, benched Zaha and Castagne to get DCL and Wilson.

    FPL Towers smashed up their own servers so I mangled my own team in solidarity.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Haha same. Wished they'd crashed a little harder to save myself from a painful transfer. Managed to make a change at 13:26, wish it had stopped me lol.

  19. alsybach
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Zahaaaaa you beauty!!!!

  20. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    How can Conte make english sound that italian

  21. tim
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    70p w Salah to play, so 72p in total.

    1. TanN
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      That is hilarious. More like 68, he may get sent off

  22. TanN
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    48 points, 5 bonus on the way = 53 (-4) = 49 points this game week.

    Everyone played from my team, so need the Liverpool Tottenham game to be a boring 1-1 with own goals.

  23. banskt
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Saka to Almiron for next week?

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Why are quite a few on here asking about selling Saka before Wolves?

      1. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Away game. Nobody else to make way for Almiron.

      2. Capocannonieri
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Arsenal away is not that good, but Wolves are rubbish

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I get wanting Almiron but if you don't have him yet you'll just have to go without until world cup. Most of us have stacked midfields and his next game is CHE.

      1. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I guess so. Newcastle is a better team than Chelsea though.

      2. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Hold no fear about Chelsea at all, Newcastle should batter them

  24. Ahmed Adam
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    So far what are your points in this game week

    1. Not again Shirley
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      47 with Salah captain and Firm to play. Not great but guess above average score.

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      38, Zaha owner with (C)ancelo. Darwin and VvD to go.

    3. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      70 all out
      Hooding for a very boring Spurs Pool match

  25. Mainoo Magic
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    40 with kane and salah to play

  26. Old Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Has in it been confirmed that the prices will be frozen over the World Cup? If so, will it be at the end of the last match in GW16?

    Thanks!

    1. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      No it hasn't (but it will be).
      At a guess, at GW 16 deadline, I would not be surprised to see infinite transfers enabled or possibly all teams locked out from transfers until further notice.

  27. Under my Cucurella
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Server crash cost me 15 points in total with the changes I would have made.

    Haaland > Trippier (C)
    Foden > Rashford

    What's the damage for others?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      -14 because despite the crash, I managed to submit changes at 13:26 🙂

      1. Under my Cucurella
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Nice of you to do yourself out of 14 points in solidarity with those of us shafted by the servers

  28. Art Vandelay
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I think Foden to Almiron GW12 may be my best ever transfer. I really lucked out with all those Foden benchings.

    1. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      40 points for Almiron and 4 for Foden in those gameweeks. Wow.

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Congrats!

    3. Capocannonieri
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I have held Foden through the benchings, never believed it would last this long.

      Total waste of 8.3M and a trade to unravel the mistake.

      Congrats

  29. Ser Davos
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Was City's interest in Cucu a bluff, similar to Sanchez and Ronaldo? "Pretend" to show interest, pull out and then set a trap for your rivals to waste a whole lot of dough

    1. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I don't think it was a bluff. City generally avoids paying hefty over the market value (at least, I don't remember any except the Grealish transfer).

      1. Ser Davos
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah, I was jesting really

        Even so, this has happened a few times now. Have there been any other examples?
