Rounding off the day’s Premier League action is Brentford v Manchester United, which gets underway at 17:30 BST.

It’s a game that has relatively little riding on it from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) perspective: Marcus Rashford is the most-selected player in this fixture with a 10.1% ownership, which about sums it up.

As for the team news, Cristiano Ronaldo is recalled to make his first start of the season in Erik ten Hag’s only change.

Scott McTominay is the player to make way.

Thomas Frank goes to a wing-back system for the visit of the Red Devils, making two changes from the side that drew 2-2 with Leicester City last week.

Mads Roerslev and £4.5m FPL midfielder Josh Dasilva are promoted to the starting XI as Vitaly Janelt and Yoane Wissa drop out.

GAMEWEEK 2 LINE-UPS

Brentford XI: Raya, Hickey, Jansson, Mee, Henry, Norgaard, Roerslev, Jensen, Dasilva, Mbeumo, Toney.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Shaw, Fred, Fernandes, Eriksen, Sancho, Rashford, Ronaldo.

    Two assists from Toney in 5 mins, nice one!

    Are Brentford that good? What's happening?

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Man utd are that bad, it's an awful team, with 0 chemistry and a manager out of his depth

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

      Defence is absolutely non-existent.

      United are disorganized, but Brentford is playing well.

      Basically everything is coming off for them. That counter couldn’t have been any more perfect if they tried another 1000 times

    5. Hog Roast Junkie

      To think they could have got Conte and decided Radnick/Ten was a better idea

  3. @persecuted_by_mods

    The funniest thing isn't the result, it's that there's actual man utd fans that expected wins inexplicably

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years

      I didn’t expect a win, just a performance of some sort of fight following last week. What a fool
      I am

    As an American, Man U was always the club that got all the publicity in the USA. To see this is astonishing. Not unhappy though

    1. A. PRISE
      • 5 Years

    Mark was asked earlier this week in a video
