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.

    Pope nailed on for a time wasting yellow at some point.
    And so he should!

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Burnley will want more goals, could come down to GD, they need to take advantage of these type of games.

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

      He's focussed on getting that 1 BP back from Fred...

  12. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Fixtures look better for Auba

  14. Paul Psychic Octopus
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Just need Pope to rack up a few saves and BAPS to go with the clean sheet.

  15. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Luke Shaw already in the red zone

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 14 Years

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  16. MidTableFantasy
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Get rid of Martial or Maddison?

    1. The Pesci challenge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Both

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

  17. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Ole out then?

  18. el polako
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    If I cant make my mind up who to bring in for Madds & Vardy I best ignore price swings and sleep on it right.

    0.1 or even 0.3 difference not worth making bad transfer.

    1. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Exactly.

        Salah isn’t playing United every week

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years

      Why?

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years

        Target United

    3. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years

      Why the 12 man?

      1. The 12th Man

    United just feeding Poope at this point

    1. Feanor
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Having Pope in goal is a blessing.

    2. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Just hope he doesn't make a cardinal error in the last 10 mins.

  21. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Wan Bissaka on 23 Bps while 0-2 down
    Strong

  22. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Poch is the only man who will return glory to Man U, even if he costs 30mil whats it matter? The amount spunked on bad players, splash the cash on Poch..

    1. Neevesy
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Got to be surely. Just makes sense.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cant believe they havent got him already tbh, IDK the details of that Spurs thing where Poch would lose out on 12 mil, but even if thats still in place they should just pay him the 12 mil and let him come. Its like when he came to Spurs, he will get the maximum out of that squad and its not a bad squad either.
        Maybe they waiting for the summer, I guess

  23. Doctor Evil

    Anyone got worse than 19 from 8?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      16 (-4) from 7

    2. beric

      Yes

    3. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      No, that's the worst

    4. Feanor
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Don't think that's particularly low. If Burnley concede I'll be on 20 from 8.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  27. TheDragon
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    So the keepers to have this week were the ones away to ManCity and ManU
