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.

    UTD relegation candidates with the way things are going?

    Did Andreas Pereira get injured?

  6. WVA
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Trashford and Benchly to Martinelli and Gross?

  7. Eastman
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Rashford to Martineli will be the easiest transfer I’ll ever make

    1. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      2 weeks to late

      1. Eastman
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Well I’m not going to keep him.

      2. Sad Pablo Arsecobar

        This transfer is never too late

        1. Eastman

          3 years, 7 months ago

          Thank you

  8. HD7
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Started Bailey instead of DaSilva but I guess it was the logic, right?

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

      Definitely. Da Silva seemed less likely to start but hey that’s the game.

    2. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Correct logic, don’t beat yourself up about such decisions

      1. HD7
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks, mate.
        I am a United fan so that is enough beating 😀

  9. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Bailey + Patterson to Gabriel + DaSilva for free?

    1. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Yes, but think there are better 5m def that Gabriel

  10. The Senate
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Wondering whether Dalot is good enough for any premier league team, let alone one that wants to win matches

  11. ChuckyPancamo
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Does anyone know which player Damsgaard will likely replace in the XI? Dasilva will be a nice Bailly replacement if he's going to start most weeks.

  12. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    DaSilva properly mugging them off. Seconds after another player mugs two more off

  27. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Can't blame the manager for any of these goals....what's he supposed to do?

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Who's smart idea was it to sign a 5'9 centre half?

  28. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    United fans are going to protest to try and get the Liverpool game called off. No doubt about that.
