Gameweek 4 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) begins with the clash between Southampton and Manchester United.

Kick-off at St Mary’s is at 12:30 BST.

These are two teams who largely struggled in the opening two Gameweeks before getting their first wins of the season last weekend.

Partly as a result of those victories, there is only one change to the starting XIs across the two sides.

Ralph Hasenhuttl has made it and it’s a predictable one, with Che Adams – scorer of four goals in league and cup over the last week – in for Sekou Mara.

Erik ten Hag’s decision to go with an unchanged line-up means that it’s another benching for Cristiano Ronaldo, with the United boss again opting for a front three of Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Elanga.

Anthony Martial, as reported yesterday, misses out due to injury, while new signing Casemiro is on the bench.

GAMEWEEK 4 LINE-UPS

Southampton XI: Bazunu, Djenepo, Salisu, Bella-Kotchap, Walker-Peters, Lavia, Ward-Prowse, A Armstrong, Elyounoussi, Aribo, Adams.

Subs: McCarthy, Lyanco, Bednarek, Valery, Romeu, S Armstrong, Diallo, Perraud, Mara.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Malacia, Martinez, Varane, Dalot, McTominay, Eriksen, Sancho, Fernandes, Elanga, Rashford.

Subs: Heaton, Maguire, Shaw, Wan-Bissaka, Fred, Casemiro, Van de Beek, Ronaldo, Garnacho.

    So spreading both your arms shoulder high when standing is deemed a natural position
    when whereas Digne jumps up with one isnt...

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Digne was lifted above his head, while pulling the shirt of the player he's marking and blocked a shot heading on target

      Not similar at all

    Southampton have gone old school with the condition of the pitch it seems.

    1. Jock Grealish
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      a few potatoes growing on there

    2. EmreCan Hustle

          • 8 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

    2. The Philosopher

      3 years, 11 months ago

      Does Top 10k truly mean anything at this stage of the season?

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

        Zero, about one third have used TC chip on Jesus basically

      2. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        yes

        it means that you captained Jesus in gw2 or have hit TC, on the whole.

      3. DandyDon
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        would be useful though

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

    Rashford cheating … nowhere near his face, but down he goes.

  9. TomSaints
    • 8 Years

    UTD fan

    "How can we win the midfield battle when our midfield has been bad"

    This a clear case of being delusional of leading 0-1 vs Soton.

    LOL chilwell

  24. _Gunner
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    So is James RCB or RWB?

    1. thegame983
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I assume CB

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

      He's either RCB (3 back) or RB (back four).

      Either RLC in midfield or wingback.

      Usually our lineup graphics list the 5 defenders first in playing wing backs, but not the case today.

  25. Jock Grealish
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    everton with their only eligible striker on the bench

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

      He's crap, that's why.

  26. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Looks like James is playing RCB again but Cucurella playing LWB haha

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

  27. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Rodrigo captain up top.

    Bamford not even on the bench.

  28. Rainer
