Man Utd v Brentford team news: Mata in for Rashford

Share

Gameweek 35 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) comes to a close this evening with Manchester United hosting Brentford at Old Trafford.

Kick-off is at 20:00 BST.

Ralf Rangnick makes one change from the side that drew 1-1 with Chelsea in Gameweek 34, as Juan Mata comes in for Marcus Rashford, who drops to the bench.

Edinson Cavani, meanwhile, is a substitute and could feature for the first time since March.

As for the visitors, Kristoffer Ajer and Christian Norgaard return after missing the goalless draw with Tottenham Hotspur, with Saman Ghoddos and Mathias Jensen making way.

That means Christian Eriksen continues in midfield, with The Bees unbeaten in all six of the matches he has started.

However, this game comes too soon for Ethan Pinnock and Sergi Canos.

GAMEWEEK 35 LINE-UPS

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

Subs: Henderson, Bailly, Jones, Fernandez, Fred, Lingard, Garnacho, Rashford, Cavani

Brentford XI: Raya, Ajer, Jansson, Bech, Roerslev, Janelt, Norgaard, Eriksen, Henry, Mbeumo, Toney

Subs: Fernandez, Jeanvier, Stevens, Da Silva, Jensen, Baptiste, Wissa, Fosu-Henry, Young-Coombes

          If you are playing your free hit you make as many transfers as you like and it won’t create hits. If you go for free hit you start the following week with one transfer.

          If you use the Free Hit, your team next week will return to what it was at the start of this GW.

          In other words it won't make a difference & you're burning a transfer.

    Any Leicester fans on? Have Barnes and wondering will he get any game time over the double? He seems to be out of favour lately. Should I play for 36 or move on? Thanks

        Fulham are better than they used to be the last time they played in Premier League. Maybe they could finally stay up. Those who are saying they won't own him next season will be the first people to do so. If starting price is 7.0 or less, he's gonna have 30% ownership at the start. If he scores between 10 and 20 goals, Mitro's done his job as a mid-priced forward pick.

          10-20 goals in the premier league? I hope you’re right but Toney was the the top scorer coming up this year and a lot bought into him at the start of season and he had six goals in 27 weeks. Now he’s coming good ok but big difference between the two leagues in scoring goals

    My bench boost GW36 squad:
    Ramsdale Pickford
    Cancelo Trent Robertson James Mings
    Salah Havertz Ramsey Kulusevski Saka
    Watkins Richarlison Dennis

    Proposed transfers: Weghorst, Broja, Tierney and De Gea out
    Richarlison, Watkins, Mings, Pickford in (0 in the bank)
    -8 must be well worth it to bring in 4 players with back-to-back doubles.

    Pickford, Mings, Ramsey, Watkins, Richarlison doubling in 37. May do Havertz to Coutinho to make it 6 doublers.

    Thoughts?

    This week, I have brought in Nketiah and Laporte for Werner and Schar for a -4.... if I just didn't do anything I would be getting Elanga's points off the bench.........just can't get it right.

      I'm on FH too.
      Not convinced that any of the Chelsea players will get both games - seems highly unlikely.
      So Mount & Alonso are too risky for me.

      Also only 2x Liverpool and 2x City seems a missed opportunity.
      Plus Watkins when one of the games is against Liverpool?

      This looks like a regular non-FH team to me.

      fwiw - here's mine current version....

      Schmeichel
      TAA, Cancelo, Laporte, Mykolenko
      Salah, KDB, Mane, Saka
      Richarlison, Nketiah

      (3.9, 4.5, 4.2, 3.8)

      I'm interested in Son, Foden, maybe Vardy too.
