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.

    They're using a leaf blower to clear the lines in the Leicester game. They're going to have to abandon this if it gets any worse

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      It's the right thing to do!

      1. HonestBlatter
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Safety first

    2. james 101
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ha. 25 mins to survive!!

    3. Zalk
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Of course not, take 15min and clear the pitch then finish the game.

    4. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Will the players still get the points?

      1. james 101
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Not if it’s off.

    5. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      With 65 mins played, they'll do everything to finish it off - even if it means stopping & starting it to clear the lines a few times.

    1. Dthinger

      • 7 Years

      Why would you do that? Surely your VC needs to always be a solidly nailed player!
