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.

        Elanga was the one!

    Sarr over Eze hurting big time, now with marginal offside and onside...

    1. Effe
      • 15 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Same

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

      Sarr has been so close to points for weeks. He'll probably come off soon as well.

      1. Effe
        • 15 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        I hope so

  3. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    It’s games like this Palace one that are just pot luck

    Sarr minuscule offside goal but that Eze goal is on

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

    Wood just a leave today

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

    Of course Sarr and Mateta miss all their chances for points and then Eze scores a tap in.

  6. Bobby Crush
    • 11 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Eze is in good form.

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

    Red arrow on bench boost. Was there ever any doubt?

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

      On green but 3 forest defenders isn't helping. Have no Liverpool or Arsenal though

  8. Gubby-Allen
    • 4 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    5 Live making a right mess of that Palace goal.

    The reporter said that it ruled out for a second time and 0-0. Then had go back again.

    1. Merlin the Wraith
      • 9 Years

      5-live total output (not just sport) is an utter embarrassment. It claims to be 'the voice of the UK'. The BBC needs to be told it spouts more trivial crap than the water companies cascade into our rivers & seas. It's gutter couch potato radio.

    Eze since GW31: 9, 6, 10, no fixture, 10, 6*

  12. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Imagine going Sarr over Eze.. Could never be me .. not

    Eze: 6+a in last 6 gws

    Sarr: 1 assist in last 6 gws

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

      Yeah, let folks tell me again how it’s luck vs skill

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      I would be overall rank 1 if I had gone Eze over Sarr

  13. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    Anyone got the police helpline number? Need to report a robbery. Sarr owners robbed big time.

  14. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    10 months, 14 days ago

    The guy in chasing is jammies, Eze, Burn, Verbruggen

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

    munoz could have been on for a 20+ pointer at this point 😀

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

      Here was what ruled out the Munoz assist for Sarr's goal earlier... https://x.com/henrywinter/status/1921564710333202663

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

        The f man

      2. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        Robbery

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

        so harsh

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

        Used to be impossible to be offside when coming from your own half.

        This is utter nonsense.

      5. Thicksolidtight
        • 3 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        Game's gone!/world's gone mad!/absolutely sickening!

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

        Thanks for this. How can you be offside when your feet are in the other half?

        I said this from day one of VAR.

        No other body position matters

        Are they going to give a penalty because his shoulder was in the box?

  16. Punned It
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Had Eze, rage quit him after that -1.

    • gooberman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Sick to death of Eze. Continually scoring whilst Sarr does nothing game after game and now of course has a goal disallowed for marginal offside that could have easily stood. Absolute joke.

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

        Same! Twice I’ve owned Sarr now, bout 2 assists I think
        Does it when you don’t own, or in cup games!

    • tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Might just captain Munoz for the rest of the season...seems like a fun ride

      1. Thicksolidtight
        • 3 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        Gopher it!

      2. Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        Spurs are abit Sunday Dinner though

    • Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Despite not wanting Sarr to get points, I could've done with another Munoz assist at least

      1. Thicksolidtight
        • 3 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        He gives and takes away

    • g40steve
      • 8 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      You know when you have a shocker & you look at your bench & see a player with double digits looking back!

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

        Schade ?

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

          Burn

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

            I should have checked your linked team
            To be fair probably the best team selected

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

              Another Assist on the bench

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

      Eze goal, Sarr assist

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

        Ref/Var looking for anyway they can rule that out 😀

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

    • Thicksolidtight
      • 3 Years

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

    • The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Sarr over Eze on WC has killed my season.

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

        It has cost me OR1, LMS and hundreds of pounds

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

        That and selling Palmer before his haul and buying back for his goal draught.

      3. FPL Scoop
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

    • BeaversWithAttitude
      • 7 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Get in, Eze!

    • Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Eze won a Chess Tournament midweek

    • FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      Time to sell Isak? Benched a Murphy assist over him this week, the horror!

      1. Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 months, 14 days ago

        I thought Haaland was the replacement
        Had to turn Salah into Bowen to finance

    • Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 14 days ago

      TG no one has Eze near me in my ML
