Double Gameweek 26 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues this Sunday lunchtime, with Leeds United v Manchester United kicking-off at 14:00 GMT.

The headline team news from an FPL perspective is that Raphinha is on the bench.

The Brazilian, who was substituted after just 45 minutes at Goodison Park last weekend, is currently owned by 14.7% of managers, and is replaced by Adam Forshaw in Marcelo Bielsa’s starting XI.

As for Man Utd, Ralf Rangnick hands Jesse Lingard his first Premier League start of the season, in one of three changes for the visitors.

Paul Pogba and Aaron Wan-Bissaka also come in, with Diogo Dalot, Fred and Anthony Elanga dropping out.

That means Bruno Fernandes and Cristiano Ronaldo retain their places, having both delivered dougle-figure hauls in Double Gameweek 25.


DOUBLE GAMEWEEK 26 LINE-UPS

Leeds United XI: Meslier, Ayling, Llorente, Struijk, Dallas, Koch, Forshaw, Klich, James, Harrison, Rodrigo

Subs: Klaesson, Firpo, Raphinha, Roberts, Bate, Gelhardt, Cresswell, Shackleton, Kenneh

Manchester United XI: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, McTominay, Pogba, Sancho, Fernandes, Lingard, Ronaldo

Subs: Henderson, Mata, Rashford, Fred, Varane, Dalot, Telles, Matic, Elanga

    Had planned to sell Bruno then Jota got injured and had to sort him out. That is FPL for you.

      Do you know Prince wasn’t actually real? I went to his concert once and after the gig finished went back stage for an autograph. Saw the roadies boxing him up in a pelican case.

      Still shocked.

      I sold Bruno for Son (-4). Bruno brace imminent. But if I bet a tenner on it, he will get two assists 🙁

    Son and Kane have Leeds next week. Perhaps it's time to double up.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Kulu triple?

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Annoying. 0.1 short off Bowen + DCL to Kulu + Kane.

    2. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Kane not hoping to move to Leeds….

    3. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Leeds style will be made for Spurs counters you would think

    4. Conners
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Son and Kulusevski double-up interests me.

      Allows for a much nicer spread of funds elsewhere.

    5. Pep bites Kun
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Then Eve & a double. Based on yesterday's game, I'd say that's a strong combo

    6. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Might sell Salah to get Son in that fixture, team needs a WC soon anyway

    7. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I have Kane and can get Son in by moving out Bowen and VVD. VVD out was planned, Bowen wasn't but I think I'll do it as I feel that hit could be made up instantly

  3. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Lindaldo made that second goal

  4. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Total lack of goal celebration from Ronaldo.

    1. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      The daggers were flying at Bruno.

    2. Utopsis
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      He's livid - probably giving Bruno both barrels in the changing room

    3. mixology
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Same as always

    4. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Selfish git

  5. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone else doing the cheeky Salah to Son, Bruno to Salah move?

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Nah. As much as I’d like to have Bruno next gw I don’t want him after. Transfers are valuable with all of these doubles!

    2. L'Aeroplanino
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Good move if you would play someone like King otherwise

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I had planned that but decided to get Son for this dgw.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Lucky

    4. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Yes. Just posted same

  6. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Will Ait Nouri play today?

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      We'll find out

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        That we will. I need him after my failed Firmino punt on FH

        1. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          I need him as well

    2. Conners
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Hope so, I think he has the edge over Marcal.

    3. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Jonny is back in contention aswel

  7. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Used WC this gameweek and had a plan to do Saka to Raphinha and field 11 in gw27 to avoid using FH, not sure what to do now.

    Sa
    Cancelo KWP Saiss
    Son Ramsey Coutinho
    Jimenez Weghorst Broja

    Dubravka Saka* Salah* TAA* Tierney*

    1.7itb

    Any ideas lads?

  8. rokonto
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Did Jota change to 50% chance of playing from 25% or was he always 50%?

  9. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Call the game off

    Too much water

    1. Conners
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Bruno seller?

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Poor water discipline

  10. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Yassss Raphinha on

  11. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Raph on

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Never in doubt after the goal

  12. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Raphinha on

  13. Can’t beat em so&hell…
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    If ifs possible to but an OK team out next week, surely there’s a case for FH in 28 instead? Nobody seems to be talking about that?

    Can fill with DGW players that you wouldn’t want long term - wolves, Watford, Newcastle, Villa.

    Or am I missing something?

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I think with 3 blanks coming up (27, 30, 33) as well as DGW26 I think there are better uses for it

    2. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      That'd be a lot of players that I wouldn't want in the short term.

      1. Can’t beat em so&hell…
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Exactly. A one week FH full of DGW players and say goodbye to them immediately the week after….

        1. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          I like it, People are free hitting next week for the sake of a couple of players with single fixtures, if you can get through 27 then I think there is bigger gains to make with a free hit in a double game week

    3. OLEgend
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Iam doing it. 10 players on GW27 and FH on 28

    4. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      If you can get 10/11 out for 27, save FH for sure

  14. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Raph Geldhart in
    Klich Harrison out

    1. Shark Team
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      *Llorente

  15. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Hopefully Raph can do a job at picking up a player for defensive set pieces.

  16. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Raphinia double coming up

  17. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    United could pick Leeds off for 4-5 here they are going for broke

    1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      This is exactly what’s going to happen.

  18. DycheDycheBaby
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Here he comes

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years

  23. DycheDycheBaby
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Ermmm it's a bit wet out there isn't it?

  24. The Ilfordian
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Lots of love for Raphinhia! I own him but fully expecting 1 point?

    1. not_astarte
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      99 points, that one point would really be satisfying.....

    2. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Most likely scenario, but you never know

    3. ilikewud
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Ok

  25. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Gelhardt on means Leeds will score

  26. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Best option here?

    A. Edouard+Martinelli >> Broja+Foden (-4)
    B. FH

    DDG
    Cancelo. Reguilón. Dalot
    Bowen. Ramsey
    Kane. Jiménez. Edouard

    (Foster, Martinelli*, Salah*, Saka*, TAA*, Tierney*)

  27. BIGREDDOG
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    It's almost depressing to watch CR7 and Messi sometimes now

  28. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Klich enjoying a shot today, no boom yet.

  29. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Klich shouldn't be allowed to shoot

  30. The Ilfordian
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Is GW27 Salah to Son
    GW28 Bruno to Salah
    a silly idea?
