Newcastle United v Nottingham Forest - Sky Bet Championship
Newcastle were very strong in the back last season

When it comes to defensive stability, no one likes it more than Rafa Benitez. His side's title winning Championship tied for the fewest goals conceded last season - 40 goals in 46 games!

This makes it one reason to have a defensive player from Newcastle in your team, who can help you score crucial points in the FPL

Deandre Yedlin is the first player that comes to mind; he is priced at £4.5m. Although he started just 21 games last season, the player managed to have 5 assist to his name.

Despite roping in Javier Manquilo from Atletico Madrid, Yedlin remains Benitez's first choice. Yedlin has a small injury at the moment but he should be fit by the time Premier League starts.
