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.

    so basically its a hack. Before every game u have to get a new manager and u win.

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

      Don't even need a manager. Just sack whoever the interim is every match

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Don't let Boehly hear you

  11. Alan The Llama

    Straight down the middle

  12. Revival

    Weghorst really is the DGW king. 2 59 minute 1 pointers. Legend.

  14. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Jamie Maclaren would have scored that.

  17. Rainer

    Weggy being brought out the back to the stables and put out of his misery.

    1. Zimo

      Here's hoping

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Shows us the class of the Turkish league

  18. The Mandalorian
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Weghorst needs to be reclassified as a defender.

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

      for the other side?

  19. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I know Leeds have the sacked manager bounce and they’ll have been up for United regardless, but this team without Casemiro and Eriksen is just the same as it has been for the last several years. Crap.
