Millions of vice-captains and auto-subs will be needed in Gameweek 14 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) as Erling Haaland misses out on Leicester City v Manchester City this lunchtime.

Haaland, who suffered a knock in City’s draw with Borussia Dortmund, is one of a host of players who drop out of the starting XI named by Pep Guardiola in midweek.

The Norwegian isn’t even on the bench for the 12.30pm BST kick-off.

Phil Foden is back among the substitutes for the second league game running, while Ruben Dias also drops out of the line-up.

Aymeric Laporte, Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne, Manuel Akanji, Ederson and Jack Grealish, all benched in Germany, come back into the team today.

The Leicester team news is an altogether quieter affair, with Brendan Rodgers only making two alterations.

Jamie Vardy is back in the side to replace Patson Daka, while centre-back Caglar Soyuncu is handed his first Premier League start of the season.

Midfielder Boubakary Soumare, a Gameweek 13 starter, is missing from the squad.

GAMEWEEK 14 LINE-UPS

Leicester City XI: Ward, Amartey, Soyuncu, Faes, Castagne, Dewsbury-Hall, Tielemans, Justin, Maddison, Barnes, Vardy

Subs: Iversen, Thomas, Perez, Ndidi, Albrighton, Mendy, Iheanacho, Praet, Daka

Manchester City XI: Ederson, Akanji, Stones, Laporte, Cancelo, Rodri, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Silva, Grealish, Alvarez

Subs: Ortega Moreno, Carson, Dias, Ake, Gomez, Mahrez, Foden, Lewis, Wilson-Esbrand

      They are dominating

    2. Dat Guy Welbz
      • 5 Years

  10. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    1. Silecro
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      You really think city wont score at least 1?

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I don’t think it matters now - he’ll naturally have loads of saves and BPS by the end of the game.

        Cleanie would be a Brucie bonus of course

  11. banskt
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Should have started Ward.

  12. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    What’s the current save number record in a single game on fpl?

    Is it De Gea vs Arsenal 11 or summat?

    1. Ejaaz11
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Vito mannone had 13

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Wow at Sunderland?

        1. Ejaaz11
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Yep

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Nice, imagine Martinez came close in his first Villa season

      2. The Ilfordian
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I remember that match. He was a great cheapie all season- rarely a clean sheet but loads of saves and bps

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Bt sport just said Grealish is a cultural icon

    Might be time to turn off the commentary

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      😆 what the heck does that mean anyway?

      2. Sterling Malory
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        He'd do well on Love Island.

  14. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Another week we should have all bench boosted!

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      How does that make sense? Most would end up carrying Haaland 0 and Foden 1s.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I don’t have Haaland?

        1. FPL Brains
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          You said "we should have all".

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            My bad - had Ward in mind!

      2. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        And Ward 15 covers that

        1. FPL Brains
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          It's heading that way. City look toothless.

  15. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Who did you all VC? Ended up with Salah :/

    1. AC/DC AFC

      Salad

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Anything more than 4 points will be a bonus

        1. Jafooli
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Yep, I’d take an assist now and run…

    Anyone else got a team with Haaland, Kane and Salah?

    Guaita
    Cancelo, Trippier, Saliba
    Salah, Foden, Martinelli, Almiron
    Haaland, Kane, Mitrovic

      1. Scapegoat Salah

  17. Danno - Emre Canada
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone go Haaland C Foden V? Although he will come on. A big name Kane or Salah late team pull out will make Captaincy’s interesting but guess you could say that every week.

  18. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  21. A. PRISE
    • 5 Years

    Grealish what a player

  22. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Is there a story behind Pep's hoodie?

    1. BERGKOP
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Has Puma on the sleeve near his wrist so it must be a 'Pep' hoodie.

    2. chunk
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Palm angels hoody he likes designer clothes .used to be cutting about in Stone island gear

  23. Feloh
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I like Pep's swag.

  24. DycheDycheBaby
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Ward is immense

  25. jack88
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    100 mil, overrated player of the planet. Stocky body type, slow af, can only complain. He has worst future ahead than welback

    1. Hooky
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Coutinho?

    2. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      ‘Stocky body type’

    3. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Dem calves n dat hair dough

  26. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Get Foden on Pep. Grealish is all fart and no poo

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Haaland all poo no fart

  27. Feloh
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I'm convinced Pep only plays Grealish because he was bought for 100 million.

  28. Saka White Rice

    On behalf of 99.22516% of fpl managers please SUB FODEN IN

  29. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    This is definitely one of those games where I'm glad to have Cancelo, if City keep s cleab sheet he's surely picking up bonus pts (until his yc anyway)

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Also feels like one of those games where Cancelo gets a cheeky winner

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A clean sheet, even

    3. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Until Jamie bloody Vardy ruins the party.

  30. Free Hat

    Was one of the most compact defending ive seen this season.
