There are two Premier League matches kicking off at 14:00 BST today, with West Ham United facing Manchester United and Crystal Palace hosting Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The Red Devils are unchanged from the team that beat Leicester City, meaning that Daniel James has recovered from the knock that forced him to miss Thursday’s win over Astana.

There is no place for Mason Greenwood in the matchday squad, however, with the teenage striker ruled out with tonsillitis.

Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial miss out as expected, with Solskjaer providing an update on Pogba ahead of kick-off:

Hopefully, we can get him back next week. He started training yesterday. Probably get some minutes against Rochdale, but definitely we think he’s ready for Arsenal.

Manuel Lanzini hasn’t recovered from the injury that Manuel Pellegrini disclosed in Friday’s press conference, so Pablo Fornals takes his place in central midfield.

Aaron Cresswell is in for the suspended Arthur Masuaku at left-back.

Roy Hodgson makes just one change to the Palace team that lost 4-0 at Tottenham Hotspur.

Andros Townsend drops to the bench as the fit-again James McArthur comes into the starting line-up.

Budget FPL defender Martin Kelly is among the substitutes.

Nuno Espirito Santo continues to ring the changes as Wolves juggle participation in the UEFA Europa League and Premier League.

There are four alterations to the side that started against Sporting Braga on Thursday, with Ruben Neves, Patrick Cutrone and Morgan Gibbs-White all benched.

Ryan Bennett doesn’t make the squad, meanwhile, for the second Premier League game in a row.

Diogo Jota, Joao Moutinho, Adama Traore and Romain Saiss are all promoted to the starting line-up.

The teamsheets show Traore as lining up in a front three with Jota and Raul Jimenez, with Matt Doherty in his usual right wing-back role.

West Ham United XI: Fabianski, Fredericks, Diop, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Rice, Noble, Fornals, Yarmolenko, Anderson, Haller.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Young, Matic, Pereira, McTominay, James, Mata, Rashford.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Ward, Cahill, Sakho, Van Aanholt, McArthur, Milivojevic, Kouyate, Zaha, Ayew, Schlupp.

Wolves XI: Patrício, Boly, Coady, Saïss, Doherty, Dendoncker, Moutinho, Jonny, Traoré, Jiménez, Jota.

      Nevermind. Had hung on bet365 similar to when there's a disallowed goal.

    The GW I get rid of Jota (after price drop and a number of two-pointers), he scores.

    7 years, 1 month ago

    Jota owners dont deserve his goal~! You been slagging him off something special

  5. BigBillyBass
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Jota essential?

  6. Ask Yourself
    7 years, 1 month ago

    He deserves that for not bringing on Kelly

    1. MTPockets
      7 years, 1 month ago

      True actually - Roy should have used 3rd sub

    2. Rainer
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Delighted for them

    3. ZeBestee
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Why should he? Wolves were 1 man down with Palace having 2 defensive mids on the pitch.

      1. Ask Yourself
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Because they just conceded a goal. If they had another defender they might not have conceded and won

        1. ZeBestee
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Too defensive mentality. Should have won the game with out Kelly.

  7. Rainer
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Get Kelly on still....

  27. FPL Daniel
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Dear Jota. So many lads here have just sold you, why you do this to them ?

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Jota is essential

    2. Royal5

  29. Brehmeren
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Sold Jota and Kane for Tammy and Auba for a hit. Time to claw back the points!

  30. Railwayman
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Unused sub (Kelly) while you are 1 up, I guess only Hodgson could do something like that.
