Our verdict on Joelinton

Joelinton Cássio Apolinário de Lira has started 2 of Newcastle's 8 league games this season and averages 90 minutes when he does. He is in and out of the side, which makes him difficult to trust from week to week. He costs £5.4m and hardly anyone owns him.

His FPL form, the average points per game over the last 30 days, stands at 1.3. That ranks 100th of 159 midfielders who are playing regularly. Middle of the pack, in other words. Underneath the points, his expected goal involvement of 0.08 per 90 minutes ranks 125th in the same group. His returns trail what his chances suggest, which often means better weeks are on the way.

His price has dropped £0.1m since the start of the season.

Over the next five gameweeks he faces EVE (H), FUL (A), ARS (H), BHA (A) and MUN (H). That is a tough run, and points will be harder to come by.

Every figure here comes from the official Fantasy Premier League data and refreshes as the week goes on. We judge minutes first, then form against others in the same position, price movement and the next five fixtures.
