Another start for budget FPL defender Kilman as Darlow is passed fit for Newcastle

The second of three Premier League matches to take place on Sunday sees Wolverhampton Wanderers entertain Newcastle United.

Kick-off at Molineux is at 16:30 BST.

With the exception of Adama Traore (£6.4m), there is good news all round for owners of Wolves’ most-popular Fantasy Premier League assets.

Max Kilman (£4.1m) is handed his third straight start at centre-back, with Romain Saiss (£5.2m) again deployed at left wing-back.

Kilman was the most-bought FPL defender of Gameweek 6, with almost 340,000 Fantasy managers recruiting the budget asset for this fixture.

Traore’s third benching in a row means that Raul Jimenez (£8.5m) is again joined in attack by Daniel Podence (£5.5m) and Pedro Neto (£5.5m), meanwhile.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s only change to the side that beat Leeds United is a like-for-like one, with Ruben Neves (£5.4m) replacing Joao Moutinho (£5.4m) in central midfield.

The team news for the visitors is a bit more complicated, with Steve Bruce making four alterations from his starting XI in Gameweek 6.

There isn’t a change between the posts, however, with Karl Darlow (£5.0m) passed fit to feature.

Emil Krafth (£4.4m) and Joelinton (£5.8m) are both benched, with Isaac Hayden (£4.9m) also among the substitutes as Steve Bruce opts not to risk his half-fit midfielder.

Jonjo Shelvey (£5.4m), who is set for groin surgery, misses out completely.

Fabian Schar (£4.9m), Ryan Fraser (£5.8m), Jacob Murphy (£4.9m) and Miguel Almiron (£5.8m) come into the Magpies’ rather offensive-looking starting XI.


Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Rui Patricio, Boly, Coady, Kilman, Semedo, Dendoncker, Neves, Saiss, Neto, Jimenez, Podence.

Newcastle United XI: Darlow, Schar, Lascelles, Fernandez, Lewis, Almiron, Hendrick, Fraser, Saint-Maximin, Wilson, Murphy.

        I thought you were extraordinarily wealthy for a second there

        1. jason_ni
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Lol.. not quite at the landed gentry level just yet!

    2. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Everyone has Lamptey son Kane so definitely won't save your gw especially as you haven't captained

      1. jason_ni
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I'm an optimist.
        Lampty is only 12% owned and at my rank son is 82%, and kane 74%, so they can for sure still move up the ranks.

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Are you ranked 400k? That's a great rank at this stage! Will you move up even from there?

          1. jason_ni
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Sorry... hadn't updated my profile, that was last seasons id, updated now.
            I wish I was 400k! Been a horrible season, sitting at 1.6mill, so plenty of room to rise!

            1. WVA
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              1.4 mil here, have no idea how I'm that high after selling Son for Bruno gw2 and captaining Salah every week

  2. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
    • 10 Years

    Trent on the second page of defenders list. Only in this season

  3. Fred the Red
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Podence to Foden (budget: 6.8)?

    1. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah I'd do that move
      Seems like he's only going to get 60 odd mins max

  4. Salan
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Kane RC will be dramatic enough.

    1. Chucky
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Plus peno miss.

    2. Magic Zico

    3. MagicMessi

      1. John Nerdelbaum

      2. camarozz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        No Fulham etc etc. But a strong bench option at 4.9 I thought.

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Then stick lol. You bought him with a specific plan. You can't sell someone before he has a chance to at least start on that plan...

    2. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years

      Lol

  7. AzzaroMax99

    Chance for Digne's red to be cancelled?

    1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
      • 10 Years

      Zero

      1. AzzaroMax99
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Ok, just read Jamie Redknapp's view on this, so gotta ask :/

    2. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Somewhere between zero and none

  8. pundit of punts
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Ings and Jimenez saving my week.

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Set and and forget them two for season!

      1. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Nah...selling Jimenez this he for Kane

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          I wouldn't, one of the most consistent FPL players ever. Can see DCL dropping off soon, Kane Ings Jimi the dream

  9. Pompel

      1. Pompel
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        1. Zimo
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Ah yes thats bad luck. Next week crystal palace tho! More clean sheets hopefully

      Yes

    2. Pompel
      • 10 Years

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years

  11. Zimo
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    21 with Kane(C), Son, Maupay left. Is that a good score for this week?

    1. Jdpz
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      yes]

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years

  12. Coys96
    • 6 Years

    Every single person in one of my MLs has a Wolves defender.....

    I'm the only one with Saiss 😉 Massive!

    1. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years

      I am with you. The only one with saiss in my ML

    2. WVA
      • 7 Years

      1. Coys96
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Look at my ID and you will soon take that back

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          You sold Kane on your wildcard after a 21 pointer.....

    3. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Other way around for me - I have Boly, they have Saiss

      1. Coys96
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Ouch

  13. shiraz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Saiss really is a bap magnet, loving it. Both he and jimenez saved my bad week. Currently 27 with son, maupay and ryan left.

    1. Joey Tribbiani
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      bap magnet? 23 bps with a clean sheet isnt great

      1. shiraz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I know, just saying he still managed to sneak in when he wasn't even playing that well

  14. Fudgy
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I don't own Kane or Son.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      You'll be fine.

    5. F_Ivanovic
      • 8 Years

      Hope you've got some plans tomorrow that don't involve watching the football.

    6. Superflymonk
      • 9 Years

      How big is your sofa?

  15. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Bottomed...

    Brewster to Bamford for free?
    Have 1 FT and 1.3 ITB.
    Other option is to save and build towards getting Bruno after 3 GWs.

    Have this team:

    Martinez Steere
    TAA James Dallas Lamptey Mitchell
    Salah Sterling Son Foden Podence
    DCL Ings Brewster

    1. Esalman
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Probably worth it for TV alone...

  16. jimmyabs1987
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Quite nice to see the Newcastle score then log into FPL and see Saiss points intact!

  17. lordkippe
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    32 with Reguillon & Son left. Disaster

    1. AzzaroMax99
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      30 (-4) with Kane, Son & Lamptey.

    2. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      21 with Son Kane and Lamptey. Awful.

    3. Nedvěd11
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      23 with Son, Kane, left...
      Kane captain

  18. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Own Kane and Son, none of them my captain but I really need hauls to save my GW. If Kane delivers he’ll be my captain next week

  19. _Ninja_
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Posted the wrong team earlier. Which is the best move here?

    A. Brewster -> Bamford
    B. Podence -> Zaha

    Martinez Forster
    Robbo Saiss Chilwell Lamptey Mitchell
    Salah Son Rodrigez Grealish Podence
    DCL Kane Brewster

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Thanks

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Unclear. Either him or Saiss is going to be the starting LCB.

  21. SHOWSTOPPERRR

    Bring in Mane for Fernandes for free or keep? No pool in the team

    1. TorresMagic™

      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      See how bad Arsenal are.
      Midweek games too.

    2. Tinkermania
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Utd will get another pen next week. Just keep for that reason alone.

    3. Burger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      I'm bringing in Bruno this week

    4. Camzy

    5. WVA

  23. LLoris
    • 5 Years

    C) Other

  24. RealSocialDads

  25. F_Ivanovic
    • 8 Years

    Barnes starts up front after I got rid for grealish this week. Instantly know what's coming

  26. Don Kloppeone
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    26 with Kane, Son and Maupay left. Currently on a red arrow keeping me at c. 1.8M. FPL keeps on giving!

    No Jimi, Ings or Wolves defence isn’t starting to hurt....

    Any early ideas what to do with an FT here (I’ve got 2)? Kilman in?

    2FT 0.5itb
    Martinez
    Robbo, Chilwell, Dallas
    Salah, Son, Pulisic, Grealish
    Kane (C), DCL, Maupay
    (Forster) (KWP, Stephens, Braithwaite)

    Cheers!

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Begin planning for how you're gonna get MUN and City players.

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I’m still unsure if I want any Utd players.

        City is harder. I’d still consider Kane > Kun for the fixture swing if Kun looks back to any form. If not.... no clue!

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Jammy Jimenez owners. His xG wasn't high, but Darlow was sleeping.

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        He always does it though Jimi....

        My 11 yr old son has Jimi, Podence and Saiss with Son (C)..... story of my season that he is decimating me 😆

  27. jay01
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone have an idea when we can expect the dgwks for man city and united?

    Was waiting to manage a wildcard around then

    1. RealSocialDads
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Looking like GW19, so can WC GW16 (last for first wildcard) to set up for it

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      GW19 possibly.

      1. jay01
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        No chance earlier? Feel like it might be a waste leaving it until then

  28. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    As a reece james and saiss owner, is it fair to say one of them needs to go this week?

    James the priority - but there must also be a question mark over saiss nailedness from now own i guess?

    Thanks

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I'm not certain yet. Reece James got 8 pts and Chelsea was able to keep cs. It isn't impossible that Frank has learned something. Saiss has not lost his place yet and next fixture looks nice. He was also advanced today and almost scored in previous game.

  29. ivantys
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Surely no one serious still has Auba?

  30. Eleven Hag
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Should I get Kane here?

    Martinez
    Robbo Justin James //Kilman Ferguson
    Salah Sterling Son Podence //Bissouma
    Jimenez Ings DCL
