Three more matches follow on from Newcastle United v Chelsea on a busy day of Premier League football.

Ruben Amorim has made six changes to his starting line-up from the midweek win over Athletic Club.

Altay Bayindir, Luke Shaw, Harry Amass, Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount and Amad Diallo come into the side as Andre Onana, Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire, Patrick Dorgu, Casemiro and Alejandro Garnacho make way.

As for the visitors, Graham Potter brings in Vladimir Coufal, Guido Rodriguez and James Ward-Prowse for Emerson Palmieri, Lucas Paqueta and Niclas Fullkrug.

There is just one change across the two teams at the City Ground, with Morato starting for the hosts in place of the injured Murillo.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Ange Postecoglou has rested many of the players who started Thursday’s UEFA Europa League semi-final win away to Bodo/Glimt, with eight changes in total.

Out go Guglielmo Vicario, Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, Destiny Udogie, Yves Bissouma, Brennan Johnson, Richarlison and Dominic Solanke.

In come Antonin Kinsky, Kevin Danso, Ben Davies, Djed Spence, Archie Gray, Pape Matar Sarr, Wilson Odobert and Mathys Tel.

Son Heung-min is back on the bench after missing the last four league matches with injury. 

Oliver Glasner’s two alterations see the injured Adam Wharton and benched Daichi Kamada replaced by Jefferson Lerma and Will Hughes.

  4. Sun Jihai

    Forest defence fell off a cliff

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Didn't think playing Sels over Verbruggen would playout like this!

      1. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 7 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        Yah, me neither!

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Triple defence

  10. Silecro
    • 8 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Relegated premier league teams started to play like premier league teams after being relegated

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Not under pressure any more

      Sou kept city out

      Ipswich only one conceded by decent Brentford team

      Leic so far 1 up
      Target the bottom teams we say!

      1. Silecro
        • 8 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        Seems like new targets are Fulham, Wolves and Chelsea

  11. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Okay I hope Munoz scores

  12. tbos83
    • 5 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Suddenly all the relegated sides remembered how to play

  13. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Forest were never getting a CS here, let's not kid ourselves.

    1. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Lol

  14. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Still trying to see where Mateta was offside for that goal 🙁

    1. Rwilliams90
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      His sleeve was 1mm offside.

  15. Rwilliams90
    • 14 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Once again a decent Saturday turns into an absolute nightmare on the Sunday. Tempted to make this my final season for my mental health

    Season from hell

    1. keefy59
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Predictably unpredictable !

  17. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Forest imploding

    Nuno just sitting back, wtaf, Coady easy goal.

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Nuno has bottled this big time.

  18. F4L
    • 11 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    when did it happen that Man City became the only team you can rely on for a clean sheet lol

  19. Crunchie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    I have seen the replay of the car and Mateta has both feet inside our half but his shoulder is just over it but the spurs defender has his feet in his defense half.

    It is the weirdest bar offside description.

    You'll have to watch the replay to make up your ownmind

    1. Rwilliams90
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      It's a joke. They need to change the rules as that obviously shouldn't be offside.

    2. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Totally agree, just don't see that as offside 🙁

    3. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Not sure if you're "Driving" home that argument 😉

    4. Maddamotha
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      So any chance they give me my points?

    5. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      He didn't score either. Circus VAR all round.

  20. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Why did I start double Liv defence and bench 7 Livramento pts? I should have known better and have no fear of Palmer scoring...

  21. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    At least I didn’t go triple Forest defence that i’ve seen recently

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      1 is too many.

  22. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Not sure why anyone is complaining. Clear Mateta offside in the disallowed goal

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      But I admit I haven't seen it yet
