The first set of midweek Premier League fixtures of 2020/21 comes to a close this evening at Bramall Lane.

Manchester United are the visitors as Sheffield United look to end their 12-match run without a win, with kick-off in South Yorkshire at 20:00 GMT.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has brought Dean Henderson (£5.3m) into his starting XI tonight, with David de Gea (£5.3m) only among the substitutes.

Alex Telles (£5.5m) for Luke Shaw (£4.8m) at left-back is another defensive change that the Norwegian has made, while Nemanja Matic (£4.8m) and Anthony Martial (£8.7m) are brought back into the fold at the expense of Scott McTominay (£4.9m) and Fred (£5.3m).

Chris Wilder has made three alterations to his team, who are looking to avoid a club record eighth successive league defeat.

Jack Robinson (£4.3m) ousts Phil Jagielka (£4.0m) in defence while Oliver Burke (£4.3m) and David McGoldrick (£5.2m) replace the injured Oli McBurnie (£5.6m) and veteran Billy Sharp (£5.6m) in attack.

Those FPL managers hoping for points from Rhian Brewster (£4.5m) will have a familiar sinking feeling, as the young striker is again only among the substitutes.

Bruno Fernandes (£11.0m) is the most-captained player of Gameweek 13, with 1,275,089 managers handing him the armband for this clash.


Sheffield United XI: Ramsdale, Baldock, Basham, Egan, Robinson, Stevens, Berge, Ampadu, Fleck, Burke, McGoldrick.

Man Utd XI: Henderson, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Telles, Matic, Pogba, Greenwood, Fernandes, Martial, Rashford.

    After all the picking between Bruno and KDB, turned out that always captain Salah is the best rule to follow in FPL!

  4. COLLIN QUANER
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Knew Bruno would blank. That is why I captained Jesus

    Are Gameweeks 18/19 going to be the main ones this season or is it worth holding onto Free Hit for later in the season. GW18 doesn’t look that appealing for FH (not got first Wildcard). Thanks!

  6. Right In The Stanchion

  13. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Sold Salah for Kdb and captained Bruno. Literally wrong at each step.

    1. Shteve
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      The theory was right

  14. Camzy

  17. CRO KLOPP
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

  20. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    54 pts all out it is. Not too bad considering I had KDB(C), Mane and Bruno. Could’ve been a monster score if things worked out

  21. TheDragon
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Imagine captaining Fernandes over KDB

    Oh casuals, when will you learn

    1. Dennis System
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

  24. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Agreed. At least we lived 2 days in hope

  25. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Damn it, it was an amazing opportunity to climb the rankings. It's so difficult this year to do it with so many big hitters performing.

    I blame Pogba!!!
