Gameweek 21 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues with four Wednesday night clashes, so here’s the team news.
After Eddie Howe added mystery to Alexander Isak‘s (£9.3m) availability, the Newcastle United forward starts tonight. He’s aiming to score in an eighth successive league game, as the Magpies seek a sixth consecutive win.
Their XI is unchanged from Gameweek 20, which is good news for owners of Anthony Gordon (£7.6m) and Lewis Hall (£4.9m), though Fabian Schar (£5.4m) is ill.
Back from suspension, Matheus Cunha (£7.0m) only makes the Wolverhampton Wanderers bench but there are no notable surprises elsewhere.
That’s because Morgan Rogers (£5.5m), Ismaila Sarr (£5.9m), Eberechi Eze (£6.6m), Jean-Philippe Mateta (£7.3m), Daniel Munoz (£4.8m), Pedro Porro (£5.4m), Dominic Solanke (£7.5m) and Jordan Pickford (£5.0m) all start.
Meanwhile, Ollie Watkins (£8.9m) keeps his place over the returning Jhon Duran (£5.8m), there’s a first league start since Gameweek 13 for Leicester City defender Wout Faes (£4.0m) and David Moyes makes two changes in his first match back at Everton. One of these welcomes Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.4m) back into the lineup.
30 minutes later, the north London derby kicks off. Arsenal have lost Gabriel Jesus (£6.8m) and Ethan Nwaneri (£4.5m) from Gameweek 20 but at least Jurrien Timber‘s (£5.7m) one-match ban is over.
He’s one of five new starters compared to the draw at Brighton and Hove Albion. Martin Odegaard (£8.3m), Kai Havertz (£7.8m) are in, playing alongside the usual defensive regulars.
Tottenham Hotspur name Son Heung-min (£9.8m) in their XI but moving to the bench are James Maddison (£7.6m) and Brennan Johnson (£6.4m). There’s a league debut for new goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky (£4.5m).
