After a busy Saturday of Premier League action, Double Gameweek 23 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues at 14:00 GMT, as Leeds United host Manchester United at Elland Road.

The teams played out an entertaining 2-2 draw just four days ago, with Wilfried Gnonto, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho on the scoresheet.

As for the all-important team news, Erik ten Hag makes three changes for the visitors, with Harry Maguire, Tyrell Malacia and Sancho coming in for Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Alejandro Garnacho.

Those changes suggest Luke Shaw will be deployed at centre-back alongside Maguire. Further forward, Sancho makes his first Premier League start since Gameweek 13, joining Bruno Fernandes, Rashford and Wout Weghorst in attack.

Caretaker manager Michael Skubala makes two alterations for Leeds. Pascal Struijk and Luis Sinisterra were both forced off in the first half at Old Trafford on Wednesday and subsequently miss out. They’re replaced by Junior Firpo and Crysensio Summerville, who has an impressive four goals and two assists in his last eight Premier League appearances.

GAMEWEEK 23 LINE-UPS

Leeds United XI: Meslier, Ayling, Koch, Wober, Firpo, McKennie, Adams, Summerville, Harrison, Gnonto, Bamford

Subs: Robles, Aaronson, Gyabi, Rutter, Kristensen, Monteiro, Greenwood, Joseph, Chilokoa-Mullen

Manchester United XI: de Gea, Dalot, Maguire, Shaw, Malacia, Fred, Sabitzer, Sancho, Fernandes, Rashford, Weghorst

Subs: Heaton, Lindelof, Martinez, Varane, Pellistri, Wan-Bissaka, Elanga, Garnacho, Iqbal

    1. SpaceCadet

      Yes

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years

    Can’t wait for Cas to be back and for us to go back to the regular back 4.

  9. ☈☾

    Pep really wants Arteta to win the league and dip when they're charged by FFP

  10. Weasel Boy

    Plus - I didn't buy any city defence

    Minus - I benched Shaw

    1. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      When Botman conceded and got yellow United cs were just inevitable. No 50/50 goes right for m this season. Last year it was the other way round

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        This

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

      Shaw hasn't got any points yet...

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

      1. Limbo
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Anywhere but here

  17. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Need a madness from Mahrez to save the GW

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Same, would love him to bang in a hatty

    2. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Sending off or missed pen?

  18. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Pep has actually done me a favour for once, all rivals city defenders benched

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

    How many of those passes has Maguire f***ed up already. Just hook him ETH ffs

  20. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Both Mahrez and Walker starts! Amazing.

  21. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Harry Maguire is next level entertainment!

  22. Alexis Nonsense
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Aké, Akanji no longer options then...

    I read this as Pep admitting that Laporte and Dias is the only way

    1. Touré De Force
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Laporte one of the best CBs in the league, he wasn't starting because of injury/fitness, no?

      1. Haalander
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        And cancello was one of the best wing backs! Doesn’t seem to matter where pep is concerned

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Going for the reliable tried and tested options

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Don't play the roulette wheel unless you're prepared to lose.

  23. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Akanji -4 🙁

    1. Haalander
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Total sickener he was a differential for me

  24. HattyMachine
    • 9 Years

  25. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Maguire is awful

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

      And water is wet.

    2. sulldaddy
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He is really obviously the worst on the pitch right?

      So many unforced giveaways

  26. HattyMachine
    • 9 Years

  27. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    199.5% EO for Haaland in the top 100k 😀
    Can celebrate his points!

  28. It's Fergie Time
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    mings injured or ill?

  29. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Nearly brought Lewis in for Cancelo for a hit. Decided to just play Shaw instead. Looks like the correct call. Couldn't afford anyone else.

  30. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Dias is back actually getting minutes? Lovely
