Gameweek 14 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) begins with two matches on Tuesday evening.

Ipswich Town v Crystal Palace gets underway at 19:30 GMT, while Leicester City v West Ham United kicks off at 20:15 GMT.

There are five changes in all at Portman Road.

Four of them are made by the hosts, including the recall of Jacob Greaves after a six-match absence.

The 3.9%-owned budget defender replaces fellow left-sided centre-half Cameron Burgess, who is not in the hosts’ squad.

Dropping to the bench are Conor Chaplin and Sammie Szmodics, while Axel Tuanzebe is out long term with a hamstring injury.

Harry Clarke, Wes Burns and Jack Clarke are recalled alongside Greaves.

There’s just one change for the Eagles as Cheick Doucoure comes in for Jefferson Lerma.

Eberechi Eze, just back from injury in Gameweek 13, starts for the second time in little more than 72 hours.

Ruud van Nistelrooy makes four changes to the Leicester City XI in his first match in charge.

Wout Faes, Caleb Okoli, Luke Thomas and Jordan Ayew drop out.

In come Jannik Vestergaard, Victor Kristiansen, Kasey McAteer and Bilal El Khannouss.

As for West Ham, Julen Lopetegui makes five alterations.

Jeanclear Todibo misses out through injury, while Emerson Palmieri, Lucas Paqueta, Crysencio Summerville and Michail Antonio are benched.

Konstantinos Mavropanos, Vladimir Coufal, Mohammed Kudus, Edson Alvarez and Danny Ings take their places.

Kudus is back from a five-match ban.

Also on the bench for the Hammers is the fit-again Niclas Fullkrug.

    It seems Palace aren’t aware that shooting is part of football. 21 minutes gone and not a single attempt.

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Seems like they have taken on the Roy Hodgson era tactics

    2. Sir Michael Taker
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Remember Wolves conceded twice to this Palace side.

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        So they will go full throttle in the second half. The way this season has been, I might need Greaves CS from the bench if they don’t.

    Its pretty funny that everyone thinks Palace are that shite that its wroth playing Greaves xD

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      maybe they haven't seen ipswich play either

  3. Mother Farke

    Doucoure yc

  4. Shark Team

    Ipswich improved so much throughout the season, well played to their manager. I think they are better than Everton,Wolves,Southampton, Palace and Leicester

    1. Sir Michael Taker
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Not being funny but they've played most of these sides now and beaten none of them.

    2. fantasyfog

      In other news water is wet

      But they are playing some decent football, throw a few wins away

    I’ve successfully acquired the rights to this game for half a chicken sandwich and two used tennis balls! Huzzah!

    1. have you seen cyan

      Who was the original owner, a Labrador?

      1. The Knights Template
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        This game desperately needs a labrador on the pitch!

        1. have you seen cyan

          everyone would like that

        1 year, 4 months ago

        T’wil be repeatedly shown to the prisoners in mine dungeon, but yes, the second tennis ball was a bit much!

  7. Lucky Z
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Played Faes second time in a season and he is benched. Any chance he will stay there?

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Faes should be a full time duty bench warmer.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Nistelrooy first game in charge so I imagine he'll stick with it unless one of Vestergaard/Coady has a nightmare game

    3. wowo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      I have Greaves and Fae and reckon they don't play.
      Then I brought in Emerson.

  8. JT11fc
    • 7 Years

    Any other Kudus owners on here?

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years

      Didn’t have the balls, went with Bowen

  9. HelmutCool
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Been a boring game.
    Watching only to see how Munoz and Eze play. Not impressed so far.
    Although Munoz plays really high.

  10. Hairy Potter
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Oh, so that's what Greaves looks like.

    1. have you seen cyan

    2. PartyTime

    6. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 5 Years

    7. Fifa las vegas

  12. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Olise left at the right time, people were telling him to stay at palace. He would likely have ruined his career if he had

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Olise still only 22 years old, made the right move

    2. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      22 players out there at the moment ruining their careers.

  17. Mother Farke

    McKenna might regret the no CB on the bench policy here. O'Shea head wound.

  18. Mother Farke

    Peeps need to be more positive on here...all the i picked him so he'll fail stuff.. Bruce Lee, and I quote:

    "Don't speak negatively about yourself, even as a joke. Your body doesn't know the difference. Words are energy and they cast spells, that's why it's called spelling. Change the way you speak about yourself, and you can change your life."

    Greaves saves Munoz shot.

    1. HelmutCool
      • 3 Years

      Munoz plays basically winger

      1. Fifa las vegas

        Could be interesting after a few weeks, his highlights looked good even outside of the goal last week
