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.

    Yeah I need a new 3rd defender. Hall/Davis/Faes are not good enough.

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

      Hall can sit 5th bench at 4.3m in the hopes you see something in 2025.

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

  17. thegame983
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Well the semi I had at the thought of a greaves clean sheet is well and truly gone.

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Least it didn't give you the false hope of it being added on 60 mins

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

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

    That greaves cs was so close to being added

  20. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Eze or Bowen?

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

      Bowen

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

      Bowen and hope the good fixtures breed some form as Eze against City and Arsenal is sub optimal

  21. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Is Bowen really gonna blank here!?

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Probably 🙁

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

    Bowen has done everything but bag. Unlucky half so far.

  23. Free Hat
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Crystal palace defence back on the menu?
    Looked pretty solid against new as well.

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Munoz winger with CS points potential?

      1. Free Hat
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        Have been thinking about him recently indeed

    2. Crystal Alice
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      peachy fixtures from gw18

  24. F4L
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    West ham with 16 shots by minute 40 jeez

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

      No Faes No goal

      1. Norco
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        Can't believe I have that flop in my team.

    2. panda07
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Or 16 shoots, as Pep would say.

      1. Zogzeg
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 4 months ago

        Always thinking about the shoots and leaves eh?

        1. panda07
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 4 months ago

          😆 indeed!

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

    Early poll. For the foreseeable future…

    A) Trent + Mitoma
    B) VVD + Rashford/Johnson
    C) Gomez/Mazraoui + Fernandes

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

      A

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

        (This is because I think Mitoma is the best mid option. Trent/VVD fairly even for me).

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

          Better than Bruno?!

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

      A

  26. DandyDon
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Was choosing between Bruno and Bowen (even though I brought him in this week) to finally swap to Salah next week, (with Haaland switching to Watkins) but I think the amount of chances for Bowen tonight is answering that one already. He has much better fixtures than Bruno to and is more money in the bank.

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Wish he’d score some of them though!

  27. Norco
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 4 months ago

    Who would you rather:

    1. Semenyo
    2. Kluivert
    3. Evanilson

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Judge after this GW

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

      All good options. Given they ain’t gonna get 3 pens a week, probably not Kluivert. Coin toss with 1 and 3

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

        This

    3. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 4 months ago

      Like above said Kluivert only really good for pens. I've got Evanilson and very much enjoyed owning him so far
