Premier League and FPL team news: All your injury and Fantasy Premier League info in one place
2 December 2025Newcastle forward Yoane Wissa took part in an 11v11 training game at the weekend but this fixture will likely come too soon for the summer signing. Eddie Howe said: “He’ll have another one at some stage this week and we’ll see how close he is.”
Newcastle defender Emil Krafth is nearing his recovery from a knee injury but Sven Botman is due to see a specialist this week to determine whether he needs an injection on a back problem or just rest.
Tottenham have no new injury concerns, while Cristian Romero is available again after serving a one-match suspension.
Players out: Newcastle – Ashby, Botman, Osula, Pope, Trippier, Wissa Tottenham – Bissouma, Dragusin, Kulusevski, Maddison, Solanke, Takai
Doubt: Newcastle – Krafth
Key FPL notes:
Malick Thiaw (£4.9m) scored twice and claimed a share of the bonus for a 16-point haul in gameweek 13, the highest return from a Newcastle player this season.
Newcastle’s Lewis Hall (£5.2m) recorded his first assist of 2025-26 in gameweek 13. The defender racked up seven assists and amassed 102 points in just 24 starts last season.
Tottenham’s Joao Palhinha (£5.5m) visits St James’ Park as the club’s top-scoring player in Fantasy, having produced defensive contribution points in five of his last six matches.
