Marko Arnautovic (£6.8m) has been named on the bench again for West Ham.
Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez (£6.1m) leads the line against Newcastle in the Saturday evening kick-off.
That means Arnautovic has started just once in the last six Gameweeks.
Manuel Lanzini (£6.4m) continues his comeback as he earns his first start in 293 days after a bad injury.
He looks to be operating in the middle of a three-man attacking midfield, flanked by Felipe Anderson (£7.2m) and Robert Snodgrass (£5.0m).
Fabian Balbuena (£4.2m) is still not fit enough for the matchday squad, which means Angelo Ogbonna (£4.2m) and Issa Diop (£4.3m).
The main Fantasy interest in the Newcastle side will be focussed around Salomón Rondón (£5.9m), owned by 8.1%.
He starts up front in the 5-4-1 formation favoured by Rafa Benitez with Miguel Almirón (£6.0m) and Ayoze Perez (£6.1m) providing the width.
West Ham United XI: Fabianski; Cresswell, Diop, Ogbonna, Fredericks; Rice, Noble; Anderson, Lanzini, Snodgrass; Chicharito.
Newcastle United XI: Dubravka; Manquillo, Lascelles, Lejeune, Schär, Ritchie; Ayoze Pérez, Hayden, Longstaff, Almirón; Rondón

For those peeps thinking of taking a break from FPL, me too. I’ve been playing for 10 years but this season has been BY FAR the worst in terms of being kicked in the crotch every single week. The Pogba penalty miss as captain is the latest in a chain of kicks and it is now seriously starting to effect my mood on weekends. I’m a rational guy and don’t have a tendency to overreact or dramatise situations but, as it stands, I’ll see out the season and then seriously consider whether I play this game next year. The game seems to reward planning and research less and less every year and with the widening of participation it feels like it has been “dumbed down” (the introduction of chips as an example) to keep players interested for longer. The FPL game I love and have such affection for simply doesn’t exist anymore. That makes me feel very sad.
