Newcastle v Man Utd team news: Hosts unchanged, Hojlund a sub

The final Premier League match of the day is the meeting between Newcastle United and Manchester United at St James’ Park.

The unusually late kick-off is at 8pm GMT.

Newcastle United are, unsurprisingly given their shortage of alternatives, unchanged from the side that drew with Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday.

Budget Fantasy Premier League (FPL) defenders Jamaal Lascelles and Tino Livramento are part of the back four, while Alexander Isak spearheads the attack.

The second-most-bought player of Gameweek 14, Anthony Gordon, takes his usual place on the left wing.

Gordon was the subject of over 500,000 transfers ahead of Saturday’s deadline.

Lewis Hall is available again after being ineligible against his parent club Chelsea and is among the substitutes.

Compared to last weekend’s win over Everton, there is just one change to the Manchester United starting XI.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who was ill in Gameweek 13, returns at the expense of Victor Lindelof.

That change will see Luke Shaw deployed at centre-half.

Antony and Rasmus Hojlund, who started in midweek, find themselves among the substitutes.

GAMEWEEK 14 LINE-UPS

Newcastle United XI: Pope, Livramento, Schar, Lascelles, Trippier, Joelinton, Guimaraes, Miley, Gordon, Isak, Almiron.

Subs: Dubravka, Karius, Dummett, Ritchie, Krafth, Hall, Diallo, Murphy, Parkinson.

Manchester United XI: Onana, Shaw, Dalot, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka, Mainoo, McTominay, Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial.

Subs: Bayindir, Lindelof, Amrabat, Hojlund, Reguilon, Varane, Antony, Pellistri, van de Beek.

Who else is hoping Watkins is injured so Gordon comes in from their bench… or scores lots of goals so it doesn’t matter.

Betting against Trippier might be my biggest mistake this season, meanwhile.

Anyway, anyone considering Dubravka? Can’t imagine Pope goes off lightly

Anyone considering Dubravka now due to Pope injury. He`s only 3.9 million. If you still don`t own Trippier, is he more or less essential now? bound to rise to 7.1 soon.

4 players of my team in action today. 28 points so far plus 8 bonus points coming in. No blanks. Good start.

Just glad I didn't jump on that Isak bus when everybody was going to sell Alvarez.

Dubravka and Livramento look like great options but as a non Trippier owner, I’m torn: do I admit defeat and get him or is it pointless getting him if I want to make gains on the hundreds of thousand ahead of me?

  You'll need double up at least. Get Trippier and use other players to boost your rank. Or your OR will continue to drop. Being too stubborn is bad fpl strategy. Be humble and admit your mistakes.

I found this with Google:

"For outfielders, a shoulder dislocation requires a mean of 41 days away from the sport. For goalies, this time is doubled. This is because goalkeepers need full shoulder function and stability to return to their position."

That 41 days is strange number though. Perhaps some sort of average or misleading info?

    I have Trippier and my plan was to sell J Andersen for Lascelles. However, if I do that, I can have only either Gordon or Dubravka. As Areola and Turner owner I need new gk. Time to do it even for a hit is this week if I get Dubravka. If I get Sanchez, he can wait. So it comes pretty soon to:
    A) Dubravka, Trippier, Lascelles, Palmer (no possibility to sell Palmer to Gordon easily)
    B) Sanchez + same players
    C) Dubravka and no Lascelles (but I need good cheap bgw18 def)
    
    What would you do?

      Im in a similar position, probably worse than yours. Maybe do the Dubravka move, no Lascelles, and find alternatives for 18 further down the line?
      
      I have Schar and Gordon, thinking of bringing in Dubravka this week then upgrade Schar to Trippier in 16. Alternative is upgrade a different defender to Trippier and suck it up with Areola

        We have seen Areola. Don't do it to yourself. Sanchez is going under the radar, Che has had very difficult fixtures and their plum fixture run is starting soon.

        My current team is:
        Turner, Areola
        Trippier, Zinch, Gabriel, Tsimi, Andersen*
        Salah, Son, Mbeumo, Palmer, Nakamba*
        Haaland, Darwin, Watkins(*)
        
        I am starting to think that Gordon can wait. If I go Lascelles+Dubravka route and get Saka for Naka, I can later sell Lascelles snd buy

        Blimey, your team value must be nuts. I have Gordon for Nakamba but a defence of Cash, Schar, Mitchell, Tsimi and Kabore.

        g. If they get injured I then don't perhaps have benching headache. Sometimes team value matters at the end of the season, sometimes it doesn't. But when everyone here was jumping from Kane to Son and back, I was able to have them both + the template 🙂

        ..and buy Gordon. His away form hasn't been the best possible. Gordon has alternatives, but Lascelles at 4.1 probably not.

  Yes, even for a hit for us Areola owners. CS odds are almost 50% (47-48 I believe). So we might break even immediately.

    Darwin there is 100.3 so over the threshold. That's normally about "60/40" rise. Hub is certain that Darwin will rise. They have him at 121.65

        Darwin was close (same 100.3 or something like that) yesterday, all the others above him rose. Some here said that they Hub has been more accurate, but I haven't followed them before. I believe that many bought him before deadline today. If your bench is good enough, you can perhaps take that 5% risk that he picks up an injury tomorrow.
