A busy Saturday of Premier League football begins with Arsenal v Manchester United.

Kick-off at the Emirates is at 12:30 BST.

Mikel Arteta makes just one change to his starting XI, with Cedric Soares replacing Rob Holding in defence.

That means Eddie Nketiah keeps his place after scoring twice in Arsenal’s 4-2 win at Chelsea in Gameweek 33.

Gabriel Martinelli and Alexandre Lacazette, meanwhile, have to settle for bench roles once again, alongside the returning Takehiro Tomiyasu.

The line-up suggests the Gunners will revert to a back-four system, which will please Bukayo Saka owners after he was deployed as a wing-back in midweek.

For the visitors, Cristiano Ronaldo returns as Ralf Rangnick responds to the heavy loss at Anfield by making five changes.

Harry Maguire, Phil Jones, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford all drop out, with Raphael Varane, Alex Telles, Scott McTominay, Jadon Sancho and Ronaldo coming in.


GAMEWEEK 34 LINE-UPS

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale, Cedric, White, Gabriel, Tavares, Elneny, Xhaka, Saka, Odegaard, Smith Rowe, Nketiah

Subs: Leno, Tomiyasu, Holding, Swanson, Lokonga, Azeez, Pepe, Martinelli, Lacazette

Manchester United XI: de Gea, Dalot, Lindelof, Varane, Telles, McTominay, Matic, Elanga, Fernandes, Sancho, Ronaldo

Subs: Henderson, Bailly, Jones, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka, Lingard, Mata, Garnacho, Rashford

    Does Telles get -3 for conceding a penalty? I thought that was the rule but he hasn’t had a deduction?
