The Gameweek gets underway at Villa Park, where United arrive to test Gerard Houllier’s young, injury ravaged side.

The team news finds Patrice Evra fit and in at left-back, with Wes Brown at right-back for the injured Rafael; interestingly he is preferred to John O’Shea who remains benched. Further forward, Nani and Ji-Sung Park take the flanks with Javier Hernandez returning to partner Dimitar Berbatov up front. Despite the recent injuries and illness, it’s a strong United lineup.

As for Villa, their lineup includes yet another youngster as Houllier continues to struggle with injuries, with Jonathan Hogg, who has just one appearance for the club, coming in for the injured Ciaran Clark alongside Barry Bannan in midfield. The headline from their camp however is that Gabby Agbonlahor returns to the forward line, ousting an unfortunate Nathan Delfouneso to the bench.

Things get underway in just under half an hour and as usual, we’ve opened our Dugout Discussion chatroom to cover this game and today’s other kick-offs. Share your Gameweek highs and lows with other Fantasy Managers right here.

Best 5.6 defender?

Getting O'Shea out. Cahill and Konchesky are the ones in mind at the moment.

Just looked at some of tweets....

A) It will be a shame if Pienaar leaves Everton. He's a good player, but I'd say that Everton is about the right level of club that he should be playing at... Not sure if he is good enough to play for one of the so called 'bigger' clubs in the country, or abroad for that matter. A couple of years ago he was the most underrated players in the league, but now I'd go so far as saying he is one of the most overrated, although I still do think that he is a good player.

B) Nice thinking from Mick McCarthy.. If the Premier League do fine Holloway, and then he resigns, Blackpool are certainties to go down. The Premier League will undoubtedly bottle it after Holloway's threat though.

Rather hoping Bosingwa will have a swashbuckling game. Continuously marauding up & down that right wing, making him undroppable.

Really need Arteta to do something now. I'll soon be the only one with him in my team and i'm the only one still praising him.

Arsenal with their 2 first choice centrebacks out, Everton got this. 3-1.

Why the f*ck is that funny Andy Gray? Nani elbows Warnock in the face, and apparently that is really funny....

Absolutely pathetic.

Considering the reds that have been given this season, that was definetly a red for nani, he looked at him 3 times before throwing his arm across warnock!!

  If we win this, we are bound to win the league. This is exactly the sort of ugly, crappy performance that Chelsea fluked last year. We've been dreadful though, no doubt about it.

Nani may aswell have just gone down holding his leg to make it look a bit more believable. Quality player, but he wouldn't be any good in a shakespere play.

Evra is MILES away from the person he's supposed to mark all the time, and that's been the case all season. What's happening to him? He was widely hailed as the best left back in the world by United supporters up until last season but he's having a real stinker of a season this far.
