Mitrovic and Cairney return for Fulham as Wilson leads Newcastle attack

Scott Parker has recalled Aleksandar Mitrovic (£5.5m) and Tom Cairney (£5.3m) to the Fulham line-up for their Gameweek 14 trip to Newcastle.

The two players have not started a match together since Gameweek 8 although the Cottagers have improved in their absence, picking up a win and two draws since Gameweek 9.

Bobby De Cordova-Reid (£5.3m) and Ruben Loftus-Cheek (£5.9m) are the men to make way as Ivan Cavaleiro (£5.3m) returns to the flanks of attacking midfield.

Accordingly, Mitrović and Cairney have reclaimed their centre-forward and number 10 roles respectively.

The main Fantasy Premier League interest tonight, of course, is in Callum Wilson (£6.6m), currently owned by 17.4% of managers worldwide.

The former Bournemouth man has averaged six points per game since returning from injury, although Fulham’s defence has improved in that time, conceding just three goals against Manchester City and Liverpool combined.

Newcastle United XI: Darlow; Dummett, Clark, Fernández, Yedlin; Ritchie, Shelvey, S Longstaff, Almirón; Joelinton, C Wilson.

Fulham XI: Areola; A Robinson, Andersen, Adarabioyo, Aina; Zambo Anguissa, Lemina; Lookman, Cairney, Cavaleiro; Mitrović.

    Why dont they show the ref the close up pictures, wtf is this idiocy from the VAR team. THere wasnt even contact inside the penalty area. Bloody joke

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

    2. Plant Based FPLer

      For sure. Did he clip his heel or not? Wilson owner too.

  8. acidicleo

    3 years, 4 months ago

    Wilson to someone under 8.5?
    Other strikers Kane and Bam..
    Was considering Ings but he is injured now..

    Who to bring in?
    Adams due to GW19 double??

    1. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Same was planning Ings this week
      Adams ok but saints fixtures not that strong

      1. acidicleo
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Better than Wilsons for sure and saints a better team..
        Cant think of anyone else...Not keen on DCL due to DGW19..

    Really want Salah... but KDB out right before Newcastle.... hmmmm

    Trying to decide between:
    Bissouma to Soucek
    or
    Watkins to Bamford
    What do you think?

    Comparing their fixtures, they face the same 4 teams in weeks 15, 16 and 19 (BUR, BRI, WBA, SOU).
    What are the chances of that?
    Also 3 at home, one away.
    Probably would bench 17 and fh in 18 anyway.

    Imagine owning Callum Wilson. Horrible player

    1. Pia06rc
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Aye imagine owning a cheap striker who scores loads of points. Mental isn't it?!

    2. Patio Kev
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      He’s the 5th highest scoring forward in the game horrible player.

  12. g40steve

    Wilson G

  13. Do I Not Like Orange

    Get in Wilson, nice leaving present before 2 games playing CB.

  14. Gunners in Haaland
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Game changer

  15. Bobby Digital
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Now watch Wilson score 13pts with Fulham on 10 men

  16. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Wilson G, no assist

  17. Baines on Toast...
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    The red card should’ve been for the dive

    1. Eat Sleep FPL Repeat

      Exactly, I thought it was just me but Wilson just fell over. Ridiculous

  18. Bruce Lee

    Andersen CS banked

    1. Gnu

      Nice wumming.

  19. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Callum Wilson is pure class... pass it on

    1. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years

      I mean, he's ok.

      Depends what you are comparing him to.

    2. Eat Sleep FPL Repeat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Dive?

  20. TomSaints

    Going to be some monster scores at this rate. Only McCarthy blanked for me so far and still only in low 40s

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’m glad only 3 of my players have played out it that way 🙂

  21. Brosstan

    Piece of absolute shite game. Vardy robbed off a clear pen last week, then Wilson gets a pen when theres clearly not even contact inside the area. This game is ALL LUCK, 100 %.

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      How are you so consistently bad then? You seem to be whining all the time sooo....

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

        Because I have the worst luck. That site that shows luck factor, last season I had 20% luck factor. This season so far 13%. Meanwhile everyone in top 10k has 95%+ luck.

        Basic statistics, someone needs to get the bad variance in a luck game.

        1. Das Boot
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          I have bad luck seeing posts like this, give me a bit of variance please

      2. how now brown cow
        • 9 Years

        Speaking of which, where's Fudgy?

    2. Plant Based FPLer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      You're talking about the "foul" on Perez? Not from the angles I saw. Not saying much though. Both were not very good, that one and tiday.

      Mate, you need to chill

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

        When pro pundits and luckers start admitting the game is a luck game Ill stop pointing it out.

  22. Mr. O'Connell

    Wilson hattrick confirmed

  23. Gnu
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I'm puzzled, I didn't think that was even a pen.
    Must be me, VAR & ref can't be wrong 😉

    1. lespaul
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      It was definitely outside the box, i don't understand at all

      1. KDB United
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Ya I could understand a yellow (red for 2nd yellow) and a free outside, but a pen for that awful dive is such a bad decision!

  24. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Now if Wilson can just grab a second...

  25. Kodap
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    No idea how that was a penalty, huge dive.

  26. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Grav luck charm strikes again 😎

  27. KDB United
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I thought the red was being called over to cancel the penalty, not for the red! Crazy decision and should be a yellow for diving.

  28. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Wilson up to 3bps
