Nuno Espirito Santo has already begun the rotation process ahead of Wolves’ FA Cup semi-final next weekend.

Raúl Jiménez (£6.8m) and Matt Doherty (£5.4m) were both named on the bench for the Double Gameweek 32 trip to Burnley.

Diogo Jota (£6.1m) keeps his place leading the Wolves line, while Joao Moutinho (£5.3m) starts in midfield.

Elsewhere, there was good news for those with Marcus Rashford (£7.6m) in their squads as he was confirmed as starting against Watford.

The England international has been deployed up front alongside Anthony Martial (£7.2m).

Romelu Lukaku (£10.8m) and Jesse Lingard (£6.7m) were named among the substitutes although there was no place in the match squad for Victor Lindelof (£5.1m) after his wife gave birth earlier this week.

It’s Phil Jones (£5.1m) who is paired with Chris Smalling (£5.6m) at centre-back for Manchester United.

Meanwhile, opponents Watford have rested some players but have made fewer changes to their attack than Wolves as they prepare for the FA Cup semi-finals.

Troy Deeney (£5.9m) and Gerard Deulofeu (£5.7m) start up front of the first-choice four-man midfield.

Intriguingly, it’s in defence where the Hornets have made a change, with Craig Cathcart (£4.5m) on the bench, allowing Miguel Britos (£4.3m) to start.

Daryl Janmaat (£4.9m), Christian Kabasele (£4.4m) and Adam Masina (£4.3m) keep their places in the side after starting against Manchester City in Gameweek 30.

There was good news for those invested in Crystal Palace assets as Vicente Guaita (£4.2m), Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£4.5m), Jeffrey Schlupp (£4.5m), Luka Milivojevic (£6.3m) and Wilfried Zaha (£6.9m) all start.

There was some rotation for Brighton ahead of their involvement in the FA Cup semi-finals as Martín Montoya (£4.3m) and Bernardo (£4.2m) come in at full-back.

Chris Hughton has gone for a front-three of Anthony Knockaert (£5.2m) and Alireza Jahanbakhsh (£6.7m) either side of Glenn Murray (£6.3m).

Burnley keep faith in their front two of Ashley Barnes (£5.7m) and Chris Wood (£6.2m) while Jeff Hendrick (£5.2m) reclaims his starting berth on the right flank from Johann Berg Gudmundsson (£5.5m), who drops to the bench.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Bernardo, Duffy, Dunk, Montoya; Bissouma, Stephens, Pröpper; Knockaert, Murray, Jahanbakhsh.

Southampton XI: Gunn; Bertrand, Yoshida, Bednarek, Valery; Højbjerg, Romeu; Armstrong, Ward-Prowse, Redmond; Ings.

Burnley XI: Heaton; Bardsley, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor; Hendrick, Westwood, Cork, McNeil; Barnes, Wood.

Wolves XI: Rui Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Boly; Traoré, Dendoncker, Rúben Neves, João Moutinho, Jonny; Cavaleiro, Diogo Jota.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; Wan-Bissaka, Tomkins, Dann, van Aanholt; Meyer, Milivojevic, Schlupp; Townsend, Batshuayi, Zaha.

Huddersfield XI: Hamer; Smith, Schindler, Kongolo, Durm; Bacuna, Hogg, Mooy; Pritchard, Löwe; Grant.

Leicester XI: Schmeichel; Ricardo Pereira, Morgan, Evans, Chilwell; Tielemans, Ndidi, Maddison; Gray, Vardy, Barnes.

Bournemouth XI: Begovic; Clyne, Mepham, Aké, Daniels; Brooks, Gosling, Lerma, Fraser; King, Wilson.

Man United XI: de Gea; Young, Smalling, Jones, Shaw; Herrera, Matic, Pogba; Mata; Rashford, Martial.

Watford XI: Foster; Janmaat, Kabasele, Britos, Masina; Doucouré, Capoue; Hughes, Pereyra; Deulofeu, Deeney.

    When (if at all) does the threshold change for Shaws yellow card risk? Is it gonna be like this for the rest of the season?

    1. Bruno Bruno!!
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      after 32

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      After the players team have completed 32 Prem games, iirc.

  2. Rash

    7 years, 1 day ago

    PVA owners only got him because they couldn't afford schlupp

    1. Mysterion
      • 8 Years

      Jafooli™ 😛

  3. THE SHEEP HUNTERS

    Congrats PVA owners!

    Nearly went there but didn't. 🙁

    F off man. Pogba Sterling DSilva all absolute crap whilst the likes of PVA Zaha Mili all deliver.

    To make it even better, Vardy and Pereira on non FH team would be doing wonders.

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      Such is FPL!

  5. The Tinkerman

    Looks like the wrong choice in Dunk vs. Tomkins. Oh well.

    1. Richd
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      Bloody Tomkins news. It’s only 5 points down but so annoying.

      1. The Tinkerman
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 day ago

        I didnt even see the news... But hey ho. Still expecting a green after midweek.

    The yellow flags has cost me so much points

    Those saying "PVA over Schlupp was so obvious" - did you just conveniently miss the two chances Schlupp nearly scored in the first half? Another day and it's a different story.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years

      They are joking / goading

      And you fell for it.....

      1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 day ago

        Be that as it may for some, I'm sure some meant it genuinely lol. Which is just daft.

      They just played their hindsight chip. Membership of FFS gives you 38 of them to play each season 😉

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 day ago

        Ha ha. The hindsight is ever so strong around these parts for sure!

  8. Jon Snow

    Makes me sick to look at my GW33 team and see the likes of Felipe Anderson stinking the place up

      • 9 Years
