Sunday treats us to four Premier League matches before the second international break of the season is thrust upon us.

First up, we make our way to Old Trafford as United welcome struggling Stoke City.

With a single goal in the last four rounds of fixtures, Zlatan Ibrahimovic ended as runner-up in captain poll with just under 22% of the votes csat.

The big Swede warmed up for this one by netting the Europa League winner against Zorya on Thursday night, though another failure to deliver is likely to spark significant sales over the next fortnight.

Ibra was sold by more Fantasy Premier League managers than any forward last week, in spite of today’s plum fixture.

Marcus Rashford, meanwhile, has been subject to significant transfers in after netting in three of the last four league fixtures.

Up against a Potters defence that shipped 15 goals in their first six, the duo look the men most likely as Jose Mourinho seeks to build on the back of last week’s 4-1 home win over champions Leicester City.

Both sides make no changes from their Gameweek 6 starting XIs this lunchtime, with Wayne Rooney once again warming the Red Devils’ bench.

  15. ★Kuntheman★
    10 years, 1 month ago

    That City lineup is worryingly similar to something Pellegrini would play...

    1. Fred54
      10 years, 1 month ago

      You mean the season they won the title?

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        10 years, 1 month ago

  16. sminkypinky

    Starting to get scared as an Ibra capper.

  17. bojack
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Had planned to keep Ibra for Liverpool but don't particularly want to lose .2 - .3 on him.

    2. Fred54
      10 years, 1 month ago

      In my main ML everyone sold Ibra last GW, infact despute leading the ML I was last to sell Ibra for this week. All Aguero V Sanchez for us, except some wierdo who TCed Lukaku.

  22. Scotty B

    1. Thomas Magnum
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Probably

  23. jam sandwich
    10 years, 1 month ago

    valencia yellow is the only blight on this game... maybe he will get an assist?

  24. Fowler23
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Son playing striker

  25. southernpacific
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Ibra not close to goal, always assisting the assister. Come on

    1. Eden Azzzar
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Someone needs to score for that to happen.....

  26. Giovanni Giorgio
    10 years, 1 month ago

    On comes Rooney to save the day...........

    1. Thomas Magnum
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Unfortunately he'll probably score the winner

  27. camarozz
    10 years, 1 month ago

    No jannsen. Your joking right.

  28. Exeter Gently
    10 years, 1 month ago

    This is the first time that Stoke haven’t conceded a first half goal against Man Utd at Old Trafford in the Premier League. (OPTA)

  29. Jay_
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Mata Lingard off
    Rooney Martial on

  30. Worzel Gummidge
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Antonio to Son is on the cards for me. Sorry Walcott but you are no Sanchez.

    1. janowsc
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I think i'm going wally to double up.

    2. Coaly
      10 years, 1 month ago

      It's Walcott or Son for me, probably depending on how they do today

      Arsenal have better fixtures

      Both in form

      Son maybe more goal involvement?

      Arsenal likely to score more goals ...
