The final match of Gameweek 22 features the only two teams who ‘doubled’, Manchester United and Leeds United.

Kick-off at Old Trafford is at 20:00 GMT.

All three of Erik ten Hag’s changes this evening are enforced, with two of them concerning players we knew would miss out.

Marcel Sabitzer makes his first start for the Red Devils in place of the suspended Casemiro, while Alejandro Garnacho comes in for the injured Antony.

The one unexpected alteration sees Diogo Dalot take the place of Aaron Wan-Bissaka at right-back.

Ten Hag revealed ahead of kick-off that Wan-Bissaka is suffering from an illness.

Anthony Martial is absent from the matchday squad with a hip problem, as previously disclosed by ten Hag in his pre-match presser.

Leeds begin life without Jesse Marsch and have caretaker boss Michael Skubala at the helm.

Skubala makes two changes from Marsch’s final line-up, with Robin Koch recalled after suspension and Weston McKennie handed his full debut.

Liam Cooper and Marc Roca drop out of both the starting XI and the matchday squad altogether.

Both players are suffering from knocks, according to their interim head coach.

GAMEWEEK 22 LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw, Sabitzer, Fred, Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford, Weghorst.

    Another bald fraud tinkering & getting found out!

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Sancho on the RW at HT and Rash back to the left hopefully. Ayling has Garnacho in his pocket

      1. Salan
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Agree. At least just swap Rash and Garnacho.

        1. g40steve
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          This & bin Weggy

      2. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        More urgent is taking out Weghorst. Put Rashford up top and someone else on RW.

  2. Salarrivederci

    Just save the FT?

    0.1 ITB, 1 FT

    Hope ETH kept the receipt for Weghorst. Abysmal.

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Sabitzer not fit to lace Eriksens boots

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

      He's on loan at least. Back to the PL next season either way!

  4. The Tinkerman

    Fernandes > Odegaard (FT) here?

    Kepa
    Trippier, White, Rico
    KDB, Rashford, _____, Mitoma
    Haaland, Kane, Nketiah

    Ward; Andreas, Shaw, Patterson

    1. Rhodes your boat
      • 9 Years

      You might have a different opinion at full time

  5. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If Rashford played in Garnachos position United would have 2 goals imo

    1. Salan
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Fair comment

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Easily, but bald managers know best

    3. Supersonic_
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Hearing this is upsetting

    4. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      At least 1 definitely yes. He's been useless on the right.

  6. Hazz

  7. Old Bull
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I must admit I wasn’t sold on Gnonto as an option for this GW and there were a fair few others on here who felt the same way. Well played to those who made the pick.

  8. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Sunderland class. Need to get them back in the Prem.

  9. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Commentator saying Rashford out of position is destroying Uniteds play, get him back on the left

  12. Sheffield Wednesday
    • 5 Years

    I wouldn't say Martinez getting away with murder in that half - just assault and battery.

    Bruno to Mahrez and Gnonto to Nketiah means I have to bench Rash next week
    or
    Rash to Saka/Ode and keep Gnonto?

    KDB Martinelli Mahrez Mitoma Rashford
    Kane Haaland Gnonto

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years

  16. Lord of Ings
    • 10 Years

    Gnonto you beauty! Think that puts to rest the whatever little doubt everyone had regarding Gnonto’s place in the XI.

  17. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Fulham through means we don't know if Liverpool play in BGW28 before the 25 deadline, not ideal!

  22. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Rashy on the left

  23. OverTinker
    • 7 Years
