Lloris back from injury as Rodgers recalls Chilwell

There are three Premier League matches taking place this evening.

Leicester City v West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur v Norwich City both get underway at 19:30 GMT, with Manchester United v Burnley kicking off 45 minutes later.

The Hammers are of course in action twice in Double Gameweek 24, with a fixture against Liverpool still to contest in a week’s time.

David Moyes has made one change to his starting XI from Saturday’s draw with Everton: Pablo Fornals (£6.0m) drops to the bench and Arthur Masuaku (£4.2m) comes in on the left flank.

Michail Antonio (£6.9m) has recovered from a thigh injury and is among the substitutes.

There is still no Lukasz Fabianski (£4.9m), so Darren Randolph (£4.5m) continues between the posts for the visitors.

Brendan Rodgers has brought back two of his first-team regulars for tonight’s game, with Ben Chilwell (£5.6m) and Youri Tielemans (£6.2m) recalled.

Christian Fuchs (£4.3m) and Dennis Praet (£5.3m) don’t even make the bench but Wilfred Ndidi (£5.0m) is named as a substitute, having made a much quicker recovery from knee surgery than first anticipated.

There are also two changes apiece for Tottenham Hotspur and Norwich City.

Having previously said he was on course for a return in early February, Jose Mourinho has named the fit-again Hugo Lloris (£5.3m) in his starting XI for the very first time.

Paulo Gazzaniga (£4.6m), fresh from a 14-point haul in Gameweek 23, makes way.

Ryan Sessegnon (£5.4m) in for Japhet Tanganga (£4.0m) is Mourinho’s other alteration.

Both of Daniel Farke’s changes are enforced, with Ben Godfrey (£4.4m) suspended and Emiliano Buendia (£6.0m) injured.

Grant Hanley (£4.0m) and full debutant Lukas Rupp (£4.5m) get the nod at centre-back and on the wing respectively.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made two changes from Manchester United’s defeat at Liverpool, one of which is enforced as Phil Jones (£4.8m) replaces the ill Victor Lindelof (£5.3m).

Juan Mata (£6.2m) comes in for Luke Shaw (£5.4m) in the other alteration as Solskjaer switches from a wing-back system to a back four.

Shaw, along with Mason Greenwood (£4.4m) and Eric Bailly (£4.9m), are among the substitutes, meaning that budget FPL defender Brandon Williams (£4.1m) gets another start at left-back.

Matthew Lowton (£4.2m) replaces Phil Bardsley (£4.3m) at right-back in Sean Dyche’s only change.


Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Pereira, Evans, Soyuncu, Chilwell, Mendy, Tielemans, Maddison, Perez, Barnes, Vardy.

West Ham United XI: Randolph, Cresswell, Diop, Ogbonna, Zabaleta, Noble, Rice, Masuaku, Snodgrass, Lanzini, Haller.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Aurier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Sessegnon, Winks, Lo Celso, Alli, Lamela, Son, Lucas.

Norwich City XI: Krul, Aarons, Hanley, Zimmermann, Byram, Tettey, McLean, Rupp, Duda, Cantwell, Pukki.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Jones, Maguire, Williams, Fred, Matic, Pereira, Mata, James, Martial.

Burnley XI: Pope, Lowton, Mee, Tarkowski, Taylor, Hendrick, Cork, Westwood, McNeil, Rodriguez, Wood.

      I wanted Noble as well as Salah & Mane but didn't have the coin. Had a sneaky feeling he might get a sniff

    Anyone getting points from West Ham players deserve it for their testicular fortitude.

    1. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Not that I was the only one, but I did say Noble and Haller were the only ones worth considering.

      FWIW two players in my ML brought in Rice and Creswell for this week, which seem like horrible picks to me.

    Maddy Please Save my season

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years

      Time to sell him Chuckles

  28. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Cant wait to have Vardy as a diff after casuals sell him not realizing he will only be out 1 game week at most.

    1. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Me too, have far too much value in him to sell

      1. Dthinger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I think I'll probably sell him. I bought him late so not that much value tied up, and he hasnt been scoring for a few weeks anyway.

    2. Jindaljain
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Till that i can earn more from other strikers

    3. ZimZalabim

    4. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Bross, hammys are notoriously tricky injuries. Minimum 2 GWs Id say, if not longer.

      1. Dthinger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        especially tricky when you are as old as Vardy

  29. Kszaq
