Wilson returns for Newcastle as Schlupp starts in advance role

Callum Wilson (£6.5m) is back in the Newcastle team after recovering from the hamstring injury sustained before the international break.

He slots straight back into the side alongside Joelinton (£5.7m) in the two-man partnership of a 4-4-2 formation.

Steve Bruce is, of course, short of Allan Saint-Maximin (£5.3m), leaving Miguel Almirón (£ and Jeff Hendrick (£4.8m) to provide the width from midfield.

While Newcastle have struggled to offer much going forward in their last two matches, they may fancy their chances against a Crystal Palace side that has just one clean sheet in their last 17 Premier League outings.

However, Roy Hodgson has mitigated against that, recalling Gary Cahill (£4.5m) to join Scott Dann (£4.4m) at centre-back.

Cheikhou Kouyaté (£5.0m) has not lost his place though, moving back into central midfield and displacing Jairo Riedewald (£4.4m) to the bench.

Of particular note is the fact that FPL midfielder Jeffrey Schlupp (£5.4m) looks to be the replacement for Wilfried Zaha (£7.3m), who misses out due to self-isolation for coronavirus (COVID-19).

The former Leicester man has been named alongside Jordan Ayew (£5.7m) in a front-two, while Eberechi Eze (£5.8m) and Andros Townsend (£5.9m) are tasked with the left and right flanks respectively.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; van Aanholt, Dann, Cahill, Clyne; Eze, McArthur, Kouyaté, Townsend; Schlupp, Ayew.

Newcastle United XI: Darlow; Lewis, Clark, Fernández, Manquillo; Almirón, S Longstaff, Shelvey, Hendrick; Wilson, Joelinton.

    Us Vardy (C) would have to wait for sooo long to get our points. Hopefully patience pays off.

    Brought in Jota as well but no City assets or Bruno. Whom did you lot C?

    1. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Also kept both Son AND Kane. Huge risk I guess.

      1. AC Yew
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Also did this. Might lose Kane to fund KDB move if Man City pull it together

      2. Jensen Luiz Coleman
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Same here, I was debating Vardy and Jota in for Kane and Zaha out and had forgotten that there was a game tonight, d'oh!

    2. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Bruno

      1. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Bruno is the man in form, captaincy is all over the place this gw, and it will be huge to whom who gets its right

      Fellow Vardy captainer here... Its gonna be a loooooong weekend and especially long for me if Liverpool attackers do well 😐

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Vardy

      2. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I have Salah as well, I hope he doesnt punish me as I removed the C from him late on. It's going to be an interesting gw. GL mate.

        1. Stockport Hatter
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Vardy and I’m happy with it. Got Salah but no City. Planning on continuing my upside chasing by getting one in next week. I’ve risen 1.6m in the last 2 weeks so here’s hoping!

    4. COLLIN QUANER
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Sterling here.

      Massive differential in my leagues.

      Could be amazing or terrible. Fingers crossed.

      1. Flair
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Feel like Sterling will destroy Burnley. Looked bright against Olympiacos and that's all he needs to explode into form. Good luck mate.

    5. AC Yew
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Bruno. Spent too much time overthinking whether to get Man City attack or defence as couldn't cover both

    6. Begbie.
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Sterling. Been slagging him off for weeks but just can't bring myself to sell 😆

    7. Im New Here

      Vardy but was close to doing KDB

    Actually worried about not owning Pool players after viewing my mini league - So many Salah and Mane / Jota double ups. Really hoping Brighton can keep it tight... Ain't too confident!

      Will be quite a few triple ups out there with Robbo as well

    2. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      How bizarre. Maybe he's from the future and knows that Schmeichel saves two penalties

    3. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 4 Years

      He is smart, clearly reckons there's gonna be a penalty for Fulham

    4. Limbo

      If he does he’ll probably bring it to the party and play it when everyone else just wants to listen to Floyd

      Fernandes. That's my plan.

  9. HollywoodXI

    No one in my ML has KDB. I’ve captained him. A haul would be huge for me this week!

    1. Jdpz

      me too

    2. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years

      Yes, expecting City to do well but it would not be a walk in the park for them. Burnley are going to make it very hard for them.

    3. Simon69
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      I expected to see plenty City players in my ML... Very few! Not sure if that's a good or bad thing

    Need to replace Shaw. Is Justin worth it or is he living on borrowed time?

    1. how now brown cow

      I imagine Ricardo & Castagne will be 1st choice.

      Too late I'dsay. You'd be booking in a transfer at this point really and need security of starts as we approach the festive period

  11. Arctic monkeys

    Kdb Captain is a differential after all. Not confident enough but need big returns from him. Fingers crossed

    1. Brehmeren
      • 13 Years

      Against Burnley's back-up keeper. Fingers crossed.

    Horrible picture on Amazon Prime, they shouldn't be allowed the games if this is the quality of quality.

    1. how now brown cow

      How to define the quality of quality?

    So, is Tyrick Mitchell out of favor now? Time to move on?
    What are folks doing — Jamal Lewis? Or bigger fish to fry.

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      yes

      LB is PVA
      RB is Clyne

    2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years

      I will probably move to a 3.8 to facilitate Vardy + Podence to Salah + Brewster

    3. Rhodes your boat

      Seems like it sadly, keeping him for now, now my 5th defender

      1. Rhodes your boat

        Will downgrade to 3.8 if I ever have a spare transfer

      When we first switched on it did lag a tiny for a few seconds but it is fine now.

        With your OR, 1k is massive! A similar rise to mine would mean you already are playing the next season. Hahahaha!

    1. how now brown cow

      They should just shake hands, call it 0-0 and get off home now.

    2. Hazz

      Thought he'd used up his shot quota a bit fast today.

  24. Right In The Stanchion

    I bet on 0-0. It’s going to happen isn’t it
