Story summary

Matthias Jaissle, Newcastle's medical staff chief, announced on Thursday that Amar Dedic will not be able to play against Bournemouth on Saturday due to an undisclosed injury. Dedic, a recent signing from Benfica, has been the club’s first-choice right-back and has made four Premier League starts this season, including an assist in Newcastle's 2-0 victory over Tottenham.

Dedic's absence could affect Fantasy Premier League players who selected him as part of their strategy for the term. It also presents Tino Livramento with a chance to impress new manager Erik ten Hag, who took charge after Eddie Howe stepped down during the transfer window. Newcastle has undergone significant changes in its playing squad this season, losing key players like Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes to other clubs.

🔮 Buoyed by only a second triumph at Chelsea in 36 years last weekend, Spurs’ task was made more routine by a 13th-minute red card for Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta for a studs-up tackle on Micky van de Ven. VAR intervened to assist referee Michael Oliver and it was largely one-way traffic after with Archie Gray able to open the scoring with a header after 25 minutes. Roberto De Zerbi’s team started the second half impressively and eventually doubled their lead with 17 minutes left through former Brighton centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke. It allowed De Zerbi to hand a league debut to Spurs’ teenager Luca Williams-Barnett on an enjoyable night for the north London club, but this latest defeat will increase the scrutiny on under-fire Palace boss Pierre Sage.

It remains to be seen when Dedic will return to action - and what his injury actually is - and that will be a blow to many Fantasy Premier League players, with the defender an under-the-radar pick on the game this term. As such, it hands England international Livramento, who was forced to fly home from the World Cup in the summer due to a calf injury, an opportunity to impress his new manager, who took over the reins at St James’ Park from Eddie Howe, who stepped down from the role during the transfer window. asserted
