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.

    Bowen not looking a bad pick.

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Mbeumo replacement watch.

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      He never has, always been a solid fpl option

      1. _Greg
        • 16 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        We are all spoiled with good penner takers. Next season all penners should only be allowed to be taken by defenders to make it more interesting.

  2. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Shaw injured again is so sad. Can’t imagine how he feels.

    Would it be mad to consider retirement at this point?

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      He's an obvious sell for us now. It's a shame but he's gonna have to go.

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        He’ll be injured anywhere he goes. Retirement surely

      2. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        Sell to who?

        1. _Greg
          • 16 Years
          1 year, 4 months ago

          it's a fair point Jim. Saudi might have a punt but who else is taking on 180k a week or whatever he's on.

          1. x.jim.x
            • 11 Years
            1 year, 4 months ago

            Think we’re better off just paying him to leave, unless we can trick someone like Everton into taking him on subsidised wages

            1. _Greg
              • 16 Years
              1 year, 4 months ago

              :mrgreen: yeah man.

    2. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Should have retired already, the man is done.

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

      Carrying too much weight

      1. _Greg
        • 16 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        I don't think that's fair, he's very fast regardless of his body shape. Just has no hamstrings anymore. Time to try somewhere else, a change of environment could help him get fit, worked for Darren Fletcher.

        1. WVA
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 4 months ago

          He is surprisingly fast to be fair, would be faster and less strain on hammys with less body fat

      2. Make United Great Again
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        Harsh

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

        And too much money

    4. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      He's a multi millionaire with generational wealth.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        I always thought it interesting to think we are just watching a bunch of millionaires run around and play football lol.

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

          Always makes me laugh how some people defend these players and their teams like it’s their own families whilst they don’t give a crap about them

          We have billionaires running a club where millionaire brands (these players are brands with their own pr team and entourage) run around for 90 odd mins.

      2. Make United Great Again
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        Ohh yeah because he’s got millions that solves all mental health issues doesn’t it.

        Utter rubbish.

        1. WVA
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 4 months ago

          Good point, now I feel really sorry for him lol it’s a hard life

      3. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        It’s scientifically proven that you stop feeling sad soon as you get a million quid in your bank, of course

        1. _Greg
          • 16 Years
          1 year, 4 months ago

          I was honestly unhappier when I was more wealthy. People treated me differently, I didn't like it. So I squandered it away, it was great! :mrgreen:

        A lot of the super-rich suffer from mental illness and can be quite narcissistic. Explains why they constantly feel as if they have a point to prove.

  3. Mother Farke
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    All West Ham since Vardy's goal.

  4. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Start Rogers (h) to Southampton or Mbeumo (h) to Newcastle?

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      The gw will help you decide

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        Silly response, early thoughts are helpful. Decision time will be Saturday morning.

        By your logic we shouldn’t ask any questions on here and just let the GW decide.

        1. WVA
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 4 months ago

          It will be much easier to decide once the game week is done though won’t it, like you say the decision will be Saturday morning so you’ve got time.

    2. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Both.

    3. Mona Lisa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Boomo. Mins pens

    4. Shark Team
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Rogers, can’t get any easier fixture than this

    5. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Boom

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

      Early thoughts say Rogers, see how Southampton fare against Chelsea first

    7. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Yeah I don't think we know the answer yet.

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        Silly answer apparently

    8. Sebastes
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Unless we learn anything new I think it has to Mbeumo

  5. Mother Farke
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Soucek wide

  6. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    IPS vs CRY is such a snooze fest. Both teams lack quality.

  7. Mother Farke
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    FFS Ings

  8. Dynamic Duos
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Bit of a benching headache at 1st glance, bench one? Currently on JP

    A) JP(lei)
    B) Rogers(Sou)
    C) Jackson(tot)

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      C

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      B I think.

    3. Sebastes
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Don’t have Jackson but choosing between the other two. I currently have Rogers on bench

  10. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    This is a brilliant game to watch as a Vardy owner!

  11. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    I hope Joao Pedro is rested vs Fulham so he starts vs Leicester who apparently can’t defend

    1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      I'd love it if he was rested as a non owner

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      I'm a Jackson owner and I'm hoping he gets booked, I have the cover for 14!.

  12. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years

  13. Snoop Udogie Dogg
