2pm kick-off team news as Burnley v Spurs is postponed

Sunday’s match between Burnley and Tottenham Hotspur has been postponed due to adverse weather conditions, but there are still three Premier League matches kicking off at 14:00 BST – Brentford v Everton, Leicester City v Watford and Manchester City v West Ham United.

For Man City, Phil Foden (£8.2m) and Jack Grealish (£7.6m) are both missing from the matchday squad, with Riyad Mahrez (£8.6m), Raheem Sterling (£10.6m) and Gabriel Jesus (£8.7m) leading the line in Pep Guardiola’s 4-3-3 formation.

Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8m) remains sidelined following his positive Covid-19 test.

David Moyes makes just the one change from Gameweek 12, as Jarrod Bowen (£6.4m) drops to the bench, with Arthur Masuaku (£4.4m) coming into the starting XI.

Meanwhile, Thomas Frank makes two changes from last weekend’s 3-3 draw at Newcastle United, as Charlie Goode (£3.9m) and Frank Onyeka (£4.9m) replace Mads Roerslev (£4.3m) and Saman Ghoddos (£5.3m), who are both benched.

Everton, who are winless since Gameweek 6, make three changes as Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.4m) returns from injury and starts ahead of Fabian Delph (£4.4m), while Alex Iwobi (£5.8m) and Salomon Rondon (£6.0m) also feature from the off.

Notably, Demarai Gray (£5.6m) returns from injury and starts on the bench.

Elsewhere, Leicester’s starting XI features Jonny Evans (£5.4m) and Jamie Vardy (£10.6m), while Ben Foster (£4.1m) misses out for Watford, with Daniel Bachmann (£4.2m) in goal.

    Will Vardy get a midweek rest? Only see him at weekends these days.

      Another Leicester goal here and he should get a little rest.

    Better cancel the City game and replay it another time.

      Hahaha a they make a winter ball every year that is meant for games like this and yet it’s so hard to see on the screen

    Shipped Toney for Kane last week after he had blanked for 4 weeks.
    Rival has Vardy and will almost certainly knock me off the top of our league.
    Save me trawling through the posts on here in my depressed state, can anyone please tell me when the possible Spurs rescheduled date might be?

      January?

      GW21 perhaps. Nothing confirmed. Won't be before the new year though surely. Fixtures already too congested.

      Toney scored last week didn’t he, Kane is the one that’s blanked 4 in a row. It’s only just been cancelled so I imagine no one knows and Spurs on the motorway somewhere. Plenty of time to get back to the top, don’t sweat it

    Mbeumo needs to repay the faith I've shown in him today. It's now or never, lad.

    This is just absolutely CLASSIC Vardy. Se him to get Son 2 GWs ago and Son gets no points and Vardy starts scoring again.
