There are four Premier League matches kicking off at 14:00 GMT on Sunday.

TEAM NEWS

Unai Emery makes six changes to the side that started the 2-0 Europa League win over Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Matty Cash, Lucas Digne, Boubacar Kamara, John McGinn, Emiliano Buendia and Ollie Watkins all return, ousting Victor Lindelof, Ian Maatsen, Lamare Bogarde, Evann Guessand, Jadon Sancho and Donyell Malen from the starting XI.

There are four changes to the Bournemouth line-up: Adam Smith, Veljko Milosavljevic, Justin Kluivert and Evanilson in for Alex Jimenez, Bafode Diakite, David Brooks and Eli Kroupi.

The only alteration from Brentford manager Keith Andrews sees Aaron Hickey start. Kristoffer Ajer makes way.

Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has had his hand forced with his only change due to the injury sustained by Anthony Gordon. Jacob Murphy comes in.

Down in south London, Marc Guehi is absent, while Will Hughes and Yeremy Pino drop to the bench. Jaydee Canvot, Adam Wharton and Daichi Kamada replace them.

Ismaila Sarr is fit to start.

Brighton and Hove Albion are unsurprisingly unchanged from the team that beat Leeds United last time out.

Finally, at the City Ground, Sean Dyche has made two changes from the 2-2 draw with Manchester United. Ibrahim Sangare and Nicolas Dominguez come in, with Douglas Luiz and Callum Hudson-Odoi both absent.

Leeds have also made two alterations. Anton Stach replaces the benched Ao Tanaka in central midfield, while Lukas Nmecha starts up top, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin only fit enough for a place on the bench.

    FPL Virgin told me to bench Richards. Should I write a massive essay blaming them?

  6. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years

    How do Brentford continue to get so many pens without Mbeumo and Wissa there?

  7. Bigbars

    Burn owners unlucky.. There was minimal contact on the brentford player, made a meal of that one again.. another dive

    1. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 months, 26 days ago

      First pen was clear from one angle. Really don’t understand why it wasn’t given. Second one was really soft.

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        4 months, 26 days ago

        Both were dives and Dango should have been sent off.

  8. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    4 months, 26 days ago

    HOLD Sarr

  9. FPL Sanky
    • 2 Years

    Why has Glasner not subbed off Kamada yet...he's been terrible

  10. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    4 months, 26 days ago

    Palace always find a way don’t they

  11. DeSelby

    So long Dan Burn. Now you have to sit out a match before you can come back and be a dirty cheat again.

  12. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    4 months, 26 days ago

    What a gameweek. And now Gakpo benched.

    1. king_of_bongo
      • 15 Years
      4 months, 26 days ago

      I left Gakpo on bench and captained Thiago. I always feel Gakpo is a rotation risk, when he's on , he gets among the chances.

  13. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    4 months, 26 days ago

    Pope to save pen? Whingers rejoice?

    1. Mr. O'Connell
