Fantasy Premier League managers have their eye on Jesse Lingard (£6.6m) and Jarrod Bowen (£6.0m) as West Ham visit Newcastle on Saturday lunch-time.

The Magpies have conceded at least twice in nine of their last 14 Premier League matches while David Moyes’ men are in a rich goal-scoring form.

With Michail Antonio (£6.5m) still out injured, Lingard and Bowen are tasked with leading the West Ham line as out-of-position forwards again, just as they did against Leicester.

Pablo Fornals (£5.8m) supports the pairing from a number 10 role with Tomas Soucek (£5.3m) and Mark Noble (£4.5m) occupying more traditional central midfield stations.

Moyes has gone with wing-backs again today although has been forced into a late change following an injury to Arthur Masuaku (£4.3m) who joins Aaron Cresswell (£5.8m) on the sidelines.

Budget option Ben Johnson (£3.9m) comes into the team to operate as a left wing-back on the opposite flank to Vladimir Coufal (£4.6m) who has assisted in each of his last two Premier League matches.

Angelo Ogbonna (£4.7m), Issa Diop (£4.3m) and Craig Dawson (£4.5m) are the back-three today, spared having to face Callum Wilson (£6.5m) for 90 minutes.

The former Bournemouth forward, who has an admirable scoring record against West Ham, is named on the bench for the second week running following his recent hamstring injury.

Joelinton (£5.7m) spearheads the Newcastle attack this afternoon with Allan Saint-Maximin (£5.1m) and Miguel Almirón (£5.6m) either side of him.

Double Gameweek 32 Line-ups

Newcastle United XI (3-4-3): Dubravka; Dummett, Clark, Fernández; Ritchie, Shelvey, S Longstaff, Murphy; Almirón, Joelinton, Saint-Maximin.

West Ham United XI (3-4-1-2): Fabianski; Ogbonna, Diop, Dawson; Johnson, Soucek, Noble, Coufal; Fornals; Lingard, Bowen.

Double Gameweek 32 so far…

    Westham games are amazing to watch

  2. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years

    Kane, Son, Jlinz, Stones and no Salah.

    Think I'll still free hit next gw after all.

      Ditto but no FH

      FH looks ideal here. This is just 2 games in and we've the three cup games to add in as well. Who knows who else will go down.

      I'm currently looking at Kane Lingz to Salah Cavani.

      1. S.Kuqi

        Something similar for me Sterling and Kane -> Salah and Cavani

    Weak refereeing. Blew the whistle to tell the player to go back and throw from a different place. Player throws from same place. Referee happy for player to enforce the rules as he sees fit. Oh football

    1. Zilla

      Game's gone mate

      1. Deulofail

        😆

  4. Moderately content penguin

    Kane and Lingard gets me Salah and Cavani. Could be worse.

    he is out the bonus now...that will do ref!

    1. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      How is Coufal on for 1 bap?

      1. StayoutheSpiceZone
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Good looks

        1. StayoutheSpiceZone
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Not any more he isn't. More bonus points dodginess! Lost three in the last one minute!

          1. The Son-dance Kid
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            Gave away a foul. I suppose thats what he lost it for

    Going to be a lot of Lingard & Kane to who for a -4 next week.

    1. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      If they are injured

      They are both owned by 90% of people so everyone in same boat. If you don’t own them you’ve lost a lot more than 4 points recently

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Agreed.

    2. Zilla
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Lingard's injury didn't look too bad

  7. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Diop was actually playing the striker role at the end there.

    1. Louis Van Gaalstones
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Goal at both ends, fox in the box

  8. Feloh

    Brought Jlingz and it has paid off immediately.

  9. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Congratulations Norwich City. Back in the prem next season

    1. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Pukki Party????

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Why not?

  10. Weeb Kakashi

    Jlingz punishing me again.

    1. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Last week my rank dropped from 10k to 23k because I didn't own Jlingz and Nacho. Took a -8 and brought them both in. If I didn't have Lingard, I'd probably be close to 40k. Buy him.

      1. Philosopher's Stones
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Same. Brought them both in for a -8 as well after not owning them dropped me from 70k to outside 100k in just a few weeks. Gotta ride the bandwagon sometimes i guess.

    2. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Why have you waited?

  11. Weeb Kakashi
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Lingard Hammy? Just saw it now.

  12. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Teemu Pukki baby!

  13. not_astarte
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    who did you guys sell to get Kane and lingz because I did the math and it never worked?

  14. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    10 matches played.
    90 points scored.
    9 Points Per Match.

    Damn Jesse.

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Brought him in GW27 for Barnes injury, was fully sceptical ... still couldn't help my worst season ever 😆

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      And I only had him for the Arsenal game lol

  15. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Lingard less than 30% ownership, I thought it was nearer 50%

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      70% if you include only important teams

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Ouch, downfall of my season. I need to chase points more!
