The final two matches of Gameweek 12 kick off simultaneously at 16:30 GMT, with the Manchester derby at the Etihad the stand-out fixture.

Arsenal take on Wolves at the Emirates in the other tea-time game.

Manchester City have made just one change from the side that beat Southampton last weekend, with Riyad Mahrez replacing Leroy Sane.

That alteration will likely see Raheem Sterling move over to the left flank, as he had done in the Champions League in midweek.

Sergio Aguero and Benjamin Mendy return to the City starting XI after being rested for that win over Shakhtar.

The injured Paul Pogba misses out altogether for United, while Romelu Lukaku is fit enough for a place on the bench after a return to training on Friday.

Alexis Sanchez drops out of the United line-up, meanwhile, with Marcus Rashford set to lead the attack.

Marouane Fellaini returns to a defensive-looking central midfield alongside Ander Herrera and Nemanja Matic.

In north London, Unai Emery has made one change from the side that drew with Liverpool: Alex Iwobi replacing Henrikh Mkhitaryan on the right flank.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side remains unchanged, though Diogo Jota has recovered from injury to take his place among the Wolves substitutes.

Manchester City XI: Ederson, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Mendy, Fernandinho, Silva, Mahrez, Bernardo, Sterling, Aguero.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Young, Lindelof, Smalling, Shaw, Matic, Herrera, Fellaini, Lingard, Rashford, Martial.

Arsenal XI: Leno, Bellerin, Mustafi, Holding, Kolasinac, Torreira, Xhaka, Iwobi, Ozil, Aubameyang, Lacazette.

Wolves XI: Patricio, Coady, Bennett, Boly, Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty, Costa, Cavaleiro, Jimenez.

      the entire point of sites that clearly show who actually is assigned to the 3,2,1 points instead of just showing base BPS 😛

  2. Jonny HOW SON?

  5. Lone Wolf FPL

  6. seewhyaxe

    Why is Sanchez totally not playing for United?

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Because he's been brutal since he left Arsenal

    2. lugs
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      he gives the ball away too much

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        He has always given the ball away throughout his career

        1. lugs
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          i know, i'm surprised Pep ever wanted to sign him tbh

    3. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Because he needs more time to count his money

    4. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Shevchenko comes to mind

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Shevchenko won things before Chelsea.

    5. Fantastisk
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      They need the creativity of Fellaini, Matic, and Herrera.

  7. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    An Aguero red card would be nice

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Imagine if someone wished ill will upon you

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Wouldn’t mind.

      2. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Doesnt really matter 😮

      3. GreennRed
        • 14 Years

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Ah the quiet desperation of an Aguero-less fool. Lovely stuff.

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        The loud desperation of you trying to get my attention for weeks 😀

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 16 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Don’t flatter yourself -the idiocy of the comment just stands out like a sore thumb

      It depends what you need it for but 16gb @2400 DDR3 is all you need for gaming, 😉

    3. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Plenty of sheep on here as it is....

  14. Chenku╰☆╮

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years

      The old Billing 😉

  15. Unfathomable Ruination
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero looking Nasri-esque ... in more ways than one ...

  16. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Basically passing football by City vs long ball football from Utd

  17. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero is regressing. 2 years ago would have burried this chance he just got.

    1. Unfathomable Ruination
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      He really should just retire at this rate ...

      1. BigBillyBass
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        LOL

    2. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Father time is undefeated

  18. BigBillyBass
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero’s barnet is terrific

  19. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Sir Alex looked older than Sir Bobby.

    Bobby looking like he still had a good 90mins left in him. 🙂

  20. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Young's positioning is being exposed. Can't fault his workrate, but he's not a defender.

  21. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Who is the blondie ? And why is he not listed in FPL

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Ravanelli's young fella.

  22. BigBillyBass
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone reckon the Portuguese Pulis can get one over on Pep today?

    1. Chenku╰☆╮
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Pep's just a Spanish Eddie Howe.

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      It's not looking good. But then it didn't last year when he beat Pep.

    4. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Spanish Van Gaal

  23. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years

    Kun new hair bad ass

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      You're half right.

  25. Zebrahimović
    • 10 Years

    Aguero with the Mr Freeze steez

  26. Planet Head
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero penalised for terrible haircut

    1. Zebrahimović
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      To be fair Fellaini should be too

    2. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      It's not the cut, it's the colour.

      1. Planet Head
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Silvaaaa

      2. Earwicker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        The third silva on the pitch

  27. Unfathomable Ruination
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Bernardo's putting in a shift already ...

  28. BigBillyBass
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Matic poppyless

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      He's entitled. He has good reason given his past.

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      His comments always reminds me of the classic sketch:

    3. Fantastisk
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Good. Can't believe we have to go through this nonsense season after season.
