Five more Premier League matches follow on from Everton’s win over Arsenal, including the first instalment of Manchester United’s Double Gameweek 22.

Times given in GMT

The team news from Old Trafford is what most Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers will be interested in, and there’s bad news for owners of Anthony Martial.

The Frenchman is absent from the Red Devils’ squad this afternoon, with Erik ten Hag’s team showing two changes from Gameweek 21: Casemiro is back from suspension and Fred is recalled, with the injured Christian Eriksen and Scott McTominay making way.

“He had a setback from the game when he returned. He thought he could build up, but he dropped a little bit back. We have to wait, we have to be patient not to force it.” – Erik ten Hag on Anthony Martial

United’s opponents, Crystal Palace, make three changes from their last game. Joel Ward, Eberechi Eze and the injured Wilfried Zaha are replaced by Will Hughes, Michael Olise and Nathaniel Clyne.

Brighton are without the injured Evan Ferguson, while Moises Caicedo is benched after being the subject of a few bids in the January transfer window.

Bournemouth make five changes to the side that drew 1-1 with Nottingham Forest a fortnight ago. January signings Antoine Semenyo and Hamed Traore both start, while Chris Mepham, Marcos Senesi and Philip Billing all return. There’s still no Dominic Solanke, however.

Hugo Bueno is benched for Wolves this afternoon, with Rayan Ait-Nouri taking his place. Craig Dawson, Matheus Cunha and Pablo Sarabia also come in for the hosts.

Darwin Nunez and Joel Matip are recalled at the expense of the injured Ibrahima Konate and the benched Harvey Elliott for Liverpool.

Alex Moreno surprisingly drops to the bench for Aston Villa, with the fit-again Lucas Digne taking his place.

Victor Kristiansen, Tete and Harry Souttar all make their debuts for Leicester.

Brentford make two changes to the side that drew with Leeds, as Yoane Wissa and Aaron Hickey come in for Mads Roerslev and Kristoffer Ajer.

Romain Perraud, Samuel Edozie, Mohamed Elyounoussi and Romeo Lavia replace Lyanco, Kyle Walker-Peters, Carlos Alcaraz and Adam Armstrong for Southampton.

  15. Sandy Ravage

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      No. It was very well documented that Bruno gave Rashford the last penalty kick.

  16. PogChamp
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Great start. Bruno(TC) and Rashford

  17. dunas_dog

    2. Royal5
      • 14 Years

      Watkins even

  20. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Ward was close to matching Kepa as well..

  21. Supersonic_
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Who won the pen?

    1. fantasist
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Rashford

  22. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    5th mid spot in my team since restart had been Mount, now Bruno. So many fortunate points, I'll likely be buying Mahrez for Bruno so jump aboard Riyad!

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Not fancy keeping for Leeds? i'm doing Martinelli to Mahrez or Saka

  23. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Fair play to anyone that went Bruno (c) over Rashford. Ownership put me off!

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Early days. Made the change late on as I'm chasing and said why not, can drastically change

  24. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Eh? Why is that not an assist for Rashford?

    1. fantasist
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      It's given

  25. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    My godness. How the **** did I end up with Ward!?!?!
