Following the lunchtime double-header at Stamford Bridge and Old Trafford, four more Premier League matches kick off at 15:00 BST: Everton v Norwich City, Leeds United v West Ham United, Leicester City v Burnley and Watford v Newcastle United.

There were injury worries aplenty for Leeds going into this afternoon’s game but Raphinha makes a swift recovery from a hip problem and starts at Elland Road.

Luke Ayling isn’t involved, however, and Jack Harrison is only among the substitutes.

Patrick Bamford was ruled out of this fixture with an ankle problem.

West Ham bring back Michail Antonio after the striker served a one-match ban last weekend, with Nikola Vlasic the man to make way.

Watford are unchanged from the team that beat Norwich, while Newcastle make just one alteration from their draw with Leeds as Federico Fernandez replaces the injured Jamaal Lascelles. Joe Willock had been ruled out this match by Steve Bruce but is fit to feature from kick-off.

There is just a single change to the Everton side that lost 3-0 to Aston Villa in their last league outing, with Jordan Pickford back to replace Asmir Begovic between the posts. Lucas Digne has shaken off a midweek calf problem and starts.

Daniel Farke makes two changes to the Norwich City side that lost 3-1 to Watford, with Pierre Lees-Melou and Ben Gibson replacing Billy Gilmour and Milot Rashica. The Canaries appear to have stuck with the wing-back system they employed in the EFL Cup in midweek.

Ademola Lookman makes his first Premier League start for Leicester. He replaces the benched James Maddison in Brendan Rodgers’ only change from Gameweek 5.

Sean Dyche has made two tweaks, with summer signing Maxwel Cornet and Matej Vydra coming in for Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Ashley Barnes.

          It would make my midfield after Raph and Sarr.

          But more seriously, I'm on the verge of selling Jota, but mindful he'll prob be needed GW8 if Bobby goes Bazillion.

          Ye, I dont think I can get to Vardy without really downgrading a couple of other players. I'm pretty set on going 4 big hitters at the back.

          I would have to drop Alonso to a 4.5 and also drop the extra midfield spot to a 4.5 as well.

      We've all got Trent, we've all got Mo (not all captained him though), so that leaves Jota as our differential tonight.

        Mini league leaders above me all captained Ronaldo. This is Salah's chance to carry me.

        Yellow-flagged. I'm looking for Sanchez and Duffy to get me a late winner in my weekly cash league.

          Yep it's between him and White- to make it even more interesting.

      Would really appreciate some thought here. Current team:
      Sanchez (Steel)
      TAA Rudi Marcal Duff Livra
      Salah Green Benny Sarr (Gil)
      Kaku Antonio Eduard
      1FT, 3.6 ITB

      I want to do 1.Marcal>Cancelo/Alonso
      2. Green+Gil>Raph+Gallagher
      3. Eduard>ASM/Jesus

      Which one is more priority? I was thinking of doing number 3 this GW but not quite sure who to get between ASM and Jesus. Both options will allow me to do 1 and 2 in the coming weeks.

      Since Firmino might be back for the next gw I’m thinking of Jota+Jimenez > Lukaku+Mbuemo (-4). Yes or no?

      Are there by the way better options than Mbuemo maximum 5,5m? Already got Gray

      Starting to think owning Ronaldo maybe isn't all as important as it's been hyped up to be? (yes I captained him)
