Some big names are preparing to audition for a place in many a Fantasy Premier League Wildcard squad at Tottenham Hotspur’s stadium tonight.

With plenty of managers opting to overhaul their squad for Gameweek 31+, Spurs and Manchester United assets are high on the watchlists.

Bruno Fernandes (£8.6m) naturally retains his number 10 role for the Red Devils and, for the first time since his January arrival, gets to line-up alongside Marcus Rashford (£8.8m).

The England international turned political campaigner has been injured since Gameweek 23, able to make a surprise return to playing as a result of the Premier League season being delayed.

It looks as if Rashford will play on Fernandes’ left while Daniel James (£5.8m) has been entrusted with the right attacking midfield slot.

Anthony Martial (£8.0m) leads the line for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men with Fred (£5.3m) and Scott McTominay (£4.9m) anchoring midfield.

Some managers may have half an eye on Paul Pogba (£8.3m) who has been named on the bench but, with five substitutes available, could see some minutes in the second half.

Meanwhile, there will be plenty of eyes on Harry Kane (£10.8m) and Son Heung-min (£9.7m) who, like Rashford, are able to play because of the season’s protracted conclusion.

As promised by Jose Mourinho, they have been named among Spurs’ attacking quartet for the Friday-night encounter; Kane leading the line and Son operating on the left of Erik Lamela (£5.7m) and Steven Bergwijn (£7.4m).

Tottenham Hotspur XI (4-2-3-1): Lloris; Davies, Dier, D Sanchez, Aurier; Winks, Sissoko; Son, Lamela, Bergwijn; Kane.

Manchester United XI (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Shaw, Maguire, Lindelöf, Wan-Bissaka; Fred, McTominay; Rashford, B Fernandes, D James; Martial.

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      That's one of those where if the ref doesn't give it, VAR doesn't overturn it imo

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah can’t really argue with it, all on Dier.

        Cheers Rafa. He’s looked tired last 5 mins but great to see he’s on spot kicks with Rashford and Pogba on the pitch.

  9. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Bruno is such a good FPL asset

    Bruno just screams a Manchester United player.

    1. Right In The Stanchion
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      What other United player is he similar too?

      1. Total Slotball
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Nobody? Only Pogba is near on ablility

  11. Rover
    • 9 Years

  13. Reg83

    so bruno does nothing all game; kicks a ball from 11 meters & gets his owners 7-10 pts. fluke pts

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Essential

    2. FPL ZB
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      He’s been the best player by far. Should have an assist or two at least

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        How you work that one out.

    3. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Nothing all game? Are you serious?

      1. Reg83
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        he is in my wc31 team but wanted him to blank today

    4. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Nothing all game? Have you been watching? Amazing midfielder.

    5. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      "fluke"

    6. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Then KDB points are also fluke. Otherwise it's hypocritical.

    7. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      I’m somewhere inbetween. He’s hardly KDB fantasy real or fantasy wise.

  14. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Should have kept him.

  15. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Thank god for that! Saves Friday slightly

  16. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Anyone else not so sure about Son anymore?

    1. FPL ZB
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      I’m a bit worried. Might go Bergwijn for funds sakes

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        I really like Berg, but I cant pick him over Son. Draft I have him 🙂

      2. The Train Driver
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        I might go without Spurs all together..

  17. DAZZ
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Auba + Barnes > Jiminez + Fernandes tempting

  18. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Bruno Pogba Martial for the run in ...

    1. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Think I still want to give a defender a spot and Bruno if he’s on pens with martial maybe

    2. Fpl_Juggernaut
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Hahahahaha... Deluded manu fans

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        I can't take them serious 😉

  19. DandyDon
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Total dive, Pogba no intention of trying to score. Thought VAR was supposed to help cut this out. Can’t be giving pens for minimal shoulder contact.
    At least I know not to bother putting rashford in my WC team now!

  20. Steinburg FC
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    🙁 bit harsh but Dier shouldn’t have let him get past so easy...

  21. Lav
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Season over there. Rashford was brought in for Ings, and I have no Fernandes.

  22. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Would be interesting if Utd switched to a 4-3-3 in future:

    De Gea
    AWB Lindelof Maguire Shaw
    Fernandes Matic Pogba
    Martial Ighalo Rashford

  23. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    I'm impressed more with pogba

  24. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    What a ball from pogba

  25. LIARS POKER
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Bergwijn one to consider instead of Son?

    3 goals in his first 6 games for Spurs in a run of games including Chelsea, City, Wolves and United

  26. Silecro
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    would you go with Bruno - Martial (352) instead of Bruno - Rashford (343) if it enables Doherty instead of Saiss?
    DCL and Jota up top in both options

  27. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Pogba has looks incredible tbf

  28. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    McCarthy + Bruno today, great to see the SGW players delivering on the BB

  29. Total Slotball
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Sheffield United denied a legit goal to take them above Utd. While United get a soft penalty awarded. Interesting indeed

    1. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Haha true

  30. Amey
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    What a pass from Pogba

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      I feel like the strikers and wingers are still getting used to actual through balls from Bruno and Pogba

      1. Amey
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Can't blame them after playing long with Lingard,Fred & Matic 😀
