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.

  18. Londongeezaa

    How did KDB manage 2 bps the other day and Grealish end up with 0?

    1. Bring the Cavalry
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Many shots off target for grealish, de Bruyne created 2 big chances in just the last few minutes

      1. Londongeezaa
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Grealish created way more than 2 over the entire game. Created huge chances.

        Doesn’t add up to me.

    2. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Clean sheets

      1. Londongeezaa
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Grealish got a clean sheet too.

        1. Pukki Party
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

  19. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Sheffield United to do what every team does against United and get a narrow win

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

  20. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Poor from Hendo but on the flip side great work from Burke to get the pass off to McGoldrick.

  21. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Ollie Watkins transfer in worked out well.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

    Well, United have won all away games this season, despite coming from behind every time.

    Just more of the same!

  23. Debauchy
    • 13 Years

  24. TOLV TUMS

  25. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I feel sorry for Ole, players not performing. United love coming from behind though

  26. Pompel
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Ollie Burke - you couldn't make it up!
    (ofc second on bench .. 🙁 )

    1. Pompel
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      , should at least hope for a price rise back to 4.4 now, then I'd lose only 0.1 on him

  27. ivantys
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Ok Burke has to start for me the next game now.

  28. FPL Scoop

    Someone was considering buying Lindelof. I hope you didn’t, and never do

  29. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Leeds to get another 5 at the weekend.

  30. Cruyff Turn
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Someone was asking why no-one was considering Lindelof at 4.8...

    Hope that's answered your question.
