Newcastle United’s trip to Bournemouth rounds off the day’s Premier League action, with the match on the south coast getting underway at 17:30 GMT.

After the rather underwhelming set of points on offer in the earlier kick-offs, Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers will be hoping for better fortunes – chiefly from the visitors’ defenders – in the late game.

Eddie Howe tends not to make too many changes to his Newcastle side and indeed his only alteration this evening is enforced.

Callum Wilson is injured, so Alexander Isak is recalled up top.

Gary O’Neil makes two changes to the Bournemouth XI that started the narrow defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion in Gameweek 22.

Jack Stephens and Dominic Solanke are both back from injury, replacing Chris Mepham and Antoine Semenyo.

GAMEWEEK 23 LINE-UPS

Bournemouth XI: Neto, A Smith, Stephens, Senesi, Zemura, Outtara, Billing, Lerma, Anthony, Traore, Solanke.

Subs: Travers, Fredericks, Mepham, Christie, Rothwell, Tavernier, Vina, Moore, Semenyo.

Newcastle United XI: Pope, Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn, Longstaff, Willock, Joelinton, Almiron, Saint-Maximin, Isak.

Subs: Dubravka, Dummett, Gordon, Ritchie, Lewis, Fraser, Murphy, Anderson, Miley.

    Mitro had 7 shots and xGI over one. Don't know what to think about that.

      No need to overthink, he blanked...I have him anyway.

    2. Baps Hunter

      I started him over Bruno

        Tbh ths season has been from h*ll for me, but it's partly because of having a thing called life early in the season. So the man in the mirror to blame.

          He's talking to you Mirror Man

    Ouch. Almiron highly owned at my lowly rank.

  3. Bobby Digital

    Isak not that impressive

  4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Trippier trying to get booked

    Newcastle look average without Guimares to be honest.

    Benched pereira sold almiron
    Horrible GW

  7. Botman and Robben

    C'mon Schär, surprise us with a goal.

    1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …

      Botman

      1. Amartey Partey

        Pope

  8. Scalper
    • 9 Years

    Wonder if Arteta still loves his players

  9. Free Hat

    Choosing between Almiron bench or Mitoma really was doing my head in this gw.
    Too bad I made the last minute switch to play Mitoma, but seeing form it still made the most sense.

      Right decision, wrong outcome. Keep making the right decisions and you'll do well!

      1. Free Hat
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks for the positive reply,
        hope you fared better so far this gw!

          Yeah there is a lot of randomness in the game so all you can do is make the best decision at the time. I took a -8 this week so looking at a red arrow so far. Good luck mate!

    This GW just keeps giving...

    Great game week for managers who quit playing and haven’t changed their team.

    1. villa_til_i_die
      • 14 Years

      They won’t care, they’ve stopped playing!

    2. Sun Jihai

      *managers who used WC and pressed autopick

    3. Baps Hunter

      Even ghost ships passing some of us 😉

  12. Hazz

    Wilson spotted

  13. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    That team of the week so far:

    Leno
    Tomkins Emerson Senesi Diop
    Maddison Willian Mendy Alcaraz March
    Iheanacho

    Wonder what the collective ownership and cost is! 😀

  14. Oggle22
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Can't believe I fell for the Nketiah trap! 2ft

    Kepa
    Shaw Trippier Ake
    Martinelli Rash Mahrez Bruno
    Kane Halland Nketiah

    Ward Almiron Bueno Tsimikas

    Surely Martinelli and Nketiah have to go first?

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Marti to Maddison + Nketiah to Gnonto?

    2. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Nketiah might still score against city at least.

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Extremely wishful thinking

    3. Sergio Giorgini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Genuine question, why do you want to sell Nketiah? I don't have him but was thinking about buying with fixtures he has. Thks

      1. villa_til_i_die
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Wants rid cos he’s gone 90 minutes without scoring.

  15. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    What is the Bournemouth sub smelling there?

  16. PlayPercentage

    What's the chances of DGWs after GW30?
    That's when I normally play my chips, late in the season when the smoke has cleared.

    Newcastle are going to break the record for most draws in a premier league season.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Record to beat:

      Most draws in a season (38 games): 17
      Newcastle United (2003–04)
      Aston Villa (2006–07, 2011–12)
      Sunderland (2014–15)

  27. _____JR_____

    Anyone in Wolves midfield worth buying? Martinelli must go and trying to look ahead for gw25. Sarabia maybe?

    1. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Not really. Neves maybe?

  28. ☈☾

    Newcastle has lost only 1 game all season...

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah but you're better off losing 1 and winning 1 over drawing 2.

      They've gone and drawn like 10.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Crazy. Even that was a literal last-second winner from Liverpool.
