Restricted to just ten matches, Gameweek 32 looks set to be an inevitable anti-climax after the recent triple-figure hauls. Nonetheless, with the double Gameweek chatter postponed, at least for a while, it’s almost comforting to return to the old routine – an early kick-off, the evening live match and a couple of Sunday joints to see the Gameweek out.

Today’s events promise to make an inauspicious start as we drop in on Old Trafford to witness a United side beleaguered by the midweek defeat to City and with one eye firmly on the clash with Bayern to come. It’s difficult to know what kind of performance that will produce from David Moyes’ men, although with pressure mounting, it’s hard to imagine that the Scot can afford to put out a side stuck in third gear. Villa will provide a test – Paul Lambert’s outfit are an effective animal on their travels and, in Christian Benteke, have a destructive force that can deal damage to a hesitant United back line.

This is all followed by five three o’clock matches, with Arsenal’s tea-time meeting with City to follow.

You can look to our Twitter feed for the news from the teamsheets, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is open for those who like to dabble in some real-time banter.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      I ditched Mata for Gerrard in DGW, considered getting him back for 2 weeks but decided to go with Nasri instead as he has a DGW in GW34 and Mata dosn't have a game.

    Fellaini is one clumsy fellow.

    I'd like to apologise to everyone who wanted Man United to lose today, I should've considered my jinxing ability when transferring Mata out this week, I transferred Schurrle and Hazard out last week 😆
