The final match of Double Gameweek 25 sees Manchester United play host to Brighton and Hove Albion at Old Trafford.

Kick-off is at 20:15 GMT.

A lot of captaincy hopes will be pinned on Bruno Fernandes and Cristiano Ronaldo tonight, with the Portuguese pair both installed in Ralf Rangnick’s starting XI.

Elsewhere, there are three changes for the Red Devils from the side that drew 1-1 against Southampton on Saturday, with Victor Lindelof, Fred and Anthony Elanga coming in for Raphael Varane, Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford.

Varane was initially named in the line-up, but has since had to pull out due to illness.

That means Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw continue in defence, ahead of goalkeeper David de Gea, who’s ownership currently sits at 15.2%.

Graham Potter, meanwhile makes three changes for Brighton, with Yves Bissouma, Alexis Mac Allister and Leandro Trossard replacing Adam Lallana, Tariq Lamptey and Danny Welbeck.

DOUBLE GAMEWEEK 25 LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: de Gea, Dalot, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, McTominay, Fred, Sancho, Fernandes, Elanga, Ronaldo

Subs: Henderson, Jones, Pogba, Mata, Rashford, Lingard, Telles, Wan-Bissaka, Heaton

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Sanchez, Veltman, Dunk, Webster, Cucurella, Bissouma, Gross, Mac Allister, Moder, Trossard, Maupay

Subs: Steele, Lamptey, Lallana, Alzate, Welbeck, March, Duffy, Caicedo, Ferguson

    Sat third on my bench, Keane's points would have had me crack the top 10k!

    What a world. Can't even believe I still own him, King AND Dennis.

    89 and back on the up again hovering around the 15k mark

    Let's keep this train rolling!!!

    How's everyone doing and feeling atm?

      That's nuts! Bruno is my new spirit animal even after i sold him (couldn't afford Salah otherwise). So, everything is right as rain. 66 and staying in sight of 100k.

        Did Bruno to Salah last night then salivated over his captain haul as a post departure gift!

        I have both King and Dennis, as mentioned, and I am thinking of selling one this week for a hit.

        Keeping one is enough, I just don't know which one.

        They could have a quadruple GW all I care

      Amazing well played son.

      A series of covid related hits and fails saw me fall from inside 100k to 500k+ over dec/jan. Feeling jadded, so hard to rank climb from here. Take me back to a time when i could have henry and pires in my team.

          Na, can't say I do. Not with Spurs current form and one of their games being against City.

    2 FT and 0.2 ITB

    Thoughts very much appreciated.

    DDG
    TAA** Reguilon** Cancelo Lamptey
    Jota** Bowen Bruno Foden
    Ronaldo Edouard**

    (Bachmann Gray* Broja Livramento)

    A) Bruno and Foden to Saka/Cornet and Salah
    B) Something else

    Leaning to A with Cornet, if I am correct that will mean I just need to shift Gray to field 11 for GW27.

        Cheers. Would mean a hit in 27 to field 11 is my only concern.

            Certainly far more attractive than Cornet this GW, agree. Maybe Gray will be back, awful fixture but would avoid a hit.
