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.

  2. Steve The Spud

    1. Capocannonieri
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Weghorst still hurt, no?

      1. AzzaroMax99
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

    1. manu4life99

    2. Rainer

  7. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    How many DGW players is everyone aiming for next week? I'm on 6 with a -4

    1. Gunneryank
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      On 6, considering a hit for 7.

    2. AzzaroMax99
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      7 with -8

    3. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      8 after using my FT

    4. kempc23
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      7 with 2 FT. Considering a -4, to go up to 9, and drop one of the crap ones (Reguilon, Watford strikers) for someone less crap. Will definitely play Cancelo and Bowen.

    5. Boberella
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Gonna be 7 with a hit

      1. Boberella
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Happy to play SGWers Coutinho, Bowen, Cancelo and Maddison as they have potential to all do well

    6. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      9 with a hit and BB I think.
      Coutinho, Ramsey, Bowen and Cancelo could outscore any of them from their SGW though.

    7. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Cool. Think I'll stick with my 6. Don't want to fall into the DGW trap!

    8. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      There’s a quality vs quantity angle, Watford DGWers don’t count!

      1. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Cue the King haul!!!!

        1. Sun Jihai
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          A haul for a Watford striker is not getting carded 😀

      2. Yes Ndidi
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Hoping Foster racks up the save points to offset the GC.

    9. Jump in Micah
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      10 but includes triple Watford....

    10. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      9 (one Watford)

    11. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      8 for -4, 9 for -8 not decided yet

  8. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    This is so painful.

  9. HonestBlatter
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    BRUNO are you serious

  10. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Looks like I should have gone McTom over McAl. Nevermind

  11. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Selling bruno for salah will be such a joyful moment.

    1. Gunneryank
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Already did it because i had exactsies before Salah's rise, but i normally would never do that.

  12. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno goal now would be worth 8 (16) points...

  13. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Any chance Cr7 gets a cheeky hatrick?

  14. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Rainer you should restore your old gravatar, you cant mourn for Kun anymore, he is gone. We all miss him, but life moves on

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      🙁

      1. DycheDycheBaby
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Don't listen. Kun lives forever in our hearts.

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          I associate Rainer with TAA and Robbo, feels like he started supporting another team. It doesnt sit right with me

          Kun is the FPL poster boy, he always will be

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            His first grav was Kane I think

          2. DycheDycheBaby
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah that does seem a little strange I guess 😀

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      "We cannoh replace him"

  15. NorCal Villan
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Fun fact: Ronaldo wears the same # as did Joe Theismann

    1. Capocannonieri
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Nope, Joe Theismann wears the same number as Ronaldo.

  16. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

  17. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I already sold Bruno yesterday morning or salah

    Would reccomend it

    1. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Sold CR7 for Salah. It was an easy decision

  18. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Dalot 2 bonus atm. 10 pointer.

    1. Nanoelektronicar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      HOOOOOLDDD!!!!!!!!!!!

  19. tiger

    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Can we have a Brighton 93rd minute goal?

    1. HonestBlatter
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      96min ordered

    2. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years

    3. Rainer

      1. tiger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Didn't want to be greedy

    4. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Incoming any second...

  20. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Trossard 2x DGWs. 4 games. 4 points. Get out of my team

  21. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Was thinking of keeping Bruno but think a hit to get rid for Son or Saka should pay off?

    1. Apwilkin
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Starting to think this. Can’t even get a return playing against 10 men for nearly 40 mins…

  22. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bemba my guy, can I order a:

    OMG LAMPTEY

    1. Gunneryank
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      This. Right. Freakin. Here. Lol

  23. Nanoelektronicar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Brighton free kick.

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Lamptey on it?

  24. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Foff Maguire

  25. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno was “this” close to a haul

  26. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Man Utd really have dropped in quality. Brighton are decent, but this should be a comfortable win for Man Utd with the opposition down to 10 men.

    1. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Ole would have won relatively comfortably.

  27. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Wow Bruno, what a waste of time he’s been. Another DGW captaincy disaster

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Did his bit previous DGW

      1. Gunneryank
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Yep. Just feel lucky i punted on him. Didn't cap though. Great score, but a false dawn i guess. An anomaly.

    2. Kannbury
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Or not... lol 🙂

  28. It's Fergie Time
