Everton v Manchester United is the first of three Premier League matches to take place on Sunday afternoon. Kick-off at Goodison Park is at 13:30 BST.

There were few shocks upon the release of the two teamsheets, with Ashley Young and Jesse Lingard demoted to the United bench after less-than-impressive performances against Barcelona in midweek.

Paul Pogba starts his 17th Premier League match in a row under Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, with Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Romelu Lukaku forming the visitors’ front three.

We’ll likely see one of Victor Lindelof or Phil Jones at full-back again given that Young is among the substitutes and Luke Shaw is suspended.

Alexis Sanchez is also on the bench for the Red Devils.

Everton’s two changes were widely expected, with Michael Keane returning at centre-half in place of Phil Jagielka and the fit-again Morgan Schneiderlin stepping in for the suspended Andre Gomes in midfield.

Richarlison, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Bernard will once again be providing support for Dominic Calvert-Lewin in attack.

Manchester United are without a clean sheet since Gameweek 27, while Everton have five in that time. Manchester City are the only Premier League side to have registered more shut-outs than the Toffees this calendar year.

United were 2-1 winners in the reverse fixture of today’s match.

Pogba bagged a goal and assist but also saw a penalty saved by Jordan Pickford, who walked away with three bonus points despite conceding on two occasions.

Richarlison and Sigurdsson combined for Everton’s goal that day and those two FPL midfielders, who were each sold by over 100,000 managers in the run-up to Gameweek 35, have 30 attacking returns between them in 2018/19.

Everton XI (4-2-3-1): Pickford, Coleman, Keane, Zouma, Digne, Schneiderlin, Gueye, Sigurdsson, Bernard, Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin.

Manchester United XI (4-3-3): De Gea, Lindelof, Smalling, Jones, Dalot, Matic, Fred, Pogba, Rashford, Lukaku, Martial.

    Everton fans piping up Digne as better than Robertson.

    None of them play FPL, obviously.

      Digne has been a revelation. Potential player of the season for the Toffees

      1. Differential C (Mark)
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Definitely, I agree he has been brilliant. Shame he went to Barca, talent like that is wasted on the bench.

    Change of plans, bringing in Karlan Grant for Hudds vs Utd rather than Rashford.

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years

    This is peak dark era, I believe or at least hope that this won't be topped.

    That's what you get for wearing stupid pink tops

      Not even steel armor can save United

  18. Nomar
    • 16 Years

    There's more here for Everton too, if they want it.

  19. Limited & Mediocre Mana…

    This is hilarious

  20. JuulKrapuul

    Think that Ole needs to take some -4's during the summer.

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      think he's just taking a -4 today looking at the scoreline..

  21. FPL Scoop

    People gonna be calling for Ole’s head

    1. Poseidon.
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      I’ve been loyal to him throughout his tenure but enough’s enough

  22. Yozzer

    7 years, 3 months ago

    I'm loving this. The Gollum bandwagon has crashed and burned as expected . Can you imagine being trapped as a UTD fan.

  23. Party time
    7 years, 3 months ago

    I should've known it was united. Selling Sigurdsson for Jota looking good

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Unlucky mate. I flirted with that transfer - but United’s defensive stats in the members area swayed me!

  24. Mr Arsenal
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Man U’s last two fixtures are really enticing but they’ll be out of top 4 race by then so might play the youngsters?

  25. 1zverGGadeM

    All they need now is a bus - to get them out of the town as faster as possible 😀 😀 😀

  26. Differentiator

    Ole Gonna ____?

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      retire

    2. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years

      Ole goner you mean?

    3. Party time
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Ole gonna "Silva"

  27. Not again Shirley
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Grrrr didn’t play bench boost and have Ryan and digne sitting on being. . What a buffoon!

    Really didn’t think they would do this well.

    1. Not again Shirley
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Digne may play if TAA doesn’t. Fat chance. I never get that lucky.

    2. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Silly Grrrr...!!

    3. IRBOX ⚽
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Why didn’t you BB?

      1. Not again Shirley
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        AWB has no little chance of CS.

        McNeill plays Chelsea away so little chance there.

        Ryan, well I was already playing Duffy and didn’t fancy double up.

        Digne had United and again didn’t fancy their chances.

        Reckon I have been somewhat unlucky on the returns so far.

  28. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Lesson learnt. Keep players like Richarlison & Digne

    1. FPL DONKEY
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah.. I think there's a core of Everton players that are almost essentials when they're on form

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      ML kept Digne,

  29. Jay_
    7 years, 3 months ago

    0-5 Newcastle 1996
    0-5 Chelsea 1999
    1-6 City 2011

    In case you were wondering

    1. FPL DONKEY
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      I remember that Newcastle one

      Happy days!

      1. Jay_
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah good old days. The Albert chip I’ll never forget

  30. One More Hit
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Do people still have Everton assets?!

    This does kinda play havoc with my plan to build towards Utd assets for 37/38 though...

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Yep all my rivals do
