There are eight Premier League matches taking place on a busy Saturday for Fantasy managers.

The first of them is Manchester United v Everton, which kicks off at 12.30pm BST.

There are no seismic shocks with the team news, with Luke Shaw‘s injury-enforced absence pre-advertised.

Tyrell Malacia takes the left-back’s place in one of three changes that Erik ten Hag has made from the midweek win over Brentford.

The other two alterations are also at the back, with Harry Maguire and Aaron Wan-Bissaka in for the benched Raphael Varane and Diogo Dalot.

Sean Dyche tends to not make too many changes when performances and results are going reasonably well, and indeed his only tweak today is an enforced one.

Abdoulaye Doucoure begins a three-match ban, with his place in the Everton side taken by Ellis Simms.

GAMEWEEK 30 LINE-UPS

Man Utd XI: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Martinez, Malacia, McTominay, Fernandes, Antony, Sabitzer, Sancho, Rashford.

Everton XI: Pickford, Coleman, Keane, Tarkowski, Godfrey, Gueye, Gray, Iwobi, Onana, McNeil, Simms.

Substitutes: Patterson, Holgate, Mina, Begovic, Mykolenko, Maupay, Davies, Coady, Garner.

    1. Shultan
      • 9 Years

    Utd left with Weggie and Mart up top for the run in, promising…

  5. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    I do want to sneak KDB in someway
    Rashy giving me the opportunity?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Convinient

  6. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Martial might be the one

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Not with fixture congestion

    2. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      What, next one injured?

  7. Red Star Toro
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Rashford, Shaw, Chill ehhh

  8. WVA
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Haha guess who brought in Chilwell this week to take Shaws place, WTF!

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Bad luck

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Surely it's not possible to have that much bad luck!?

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      It’s a conspiracy

  9. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    I have a feeling Newcastle are going to trounce Brentford

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      😮

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      It's inevitable that Toney will bust the Newcastle clean sheets

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        I know, double NEW defence here too, will probs happen in the first 5 mins

  10. Lieutenant Frank Columbo

    FPL website not updating since halftime?

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      It's injured...

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Rashford's -bps broke it

    3. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Admin captained Rashford.

  11. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Everyone doing Rashford to Saka then?

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Or Grealish

    2. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      No, Salah and 5.6 mid for him and Maddison

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Martinelli, as 0 ITB. Would otherwise have done Maddison out but but short for Saka.

      Unless Saka + Martinelli for a hit. Not actually awful either... especially vs. WHU!

    4. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Still have Saka. Probably a City mid, KDB if I can find the funds

    5. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Aye, think that will be my move rather than Grealish

    6. MissouriMarten
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      It's made bringing Salah in for his double less of a headache for me.

      He’s a joke, hope they’ll getting heavily besten

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        *besting

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 12 months ago

          Made a new Word?

          1. tiger
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 12 months ago

            I don't know what besten is, but he deserves a good besten!

            1. RamaJama
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              2 years, 12 months ago

              Absolutely!

    2. Gubby-Allen
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      But it seems a formation change. Chilwell and James are not much good in a back four that concede.

      Would be odd that if they were resting him and then went back to a back five when he plays.

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Seems sensible

  13. Ronnies
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    So we were worried about fat frank benching Kepa.... but he plays and Chilly gets the honours.

    Cheers fat frank

  14. The Senate

    Proper brexit tackle from Davies that

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Ben Davies?

  15. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Bruno could have had a haul today

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      So glad he didn’t, removed him to facilitate Haaland, got lucky

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Very lucky, created loads of chances that should have been scored and could have scored one or two himself

        1. RICICLE
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 12 months ago

          Indeed! He defo should of got something by now, I had to take the risk

      2. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Same

    2. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Two headers.

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Created a lot of chances too

  16. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Sancho assist ?

  17. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    So we are going without Utd players into that dgw 34

  18. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Where Chillwell?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Fat Frank wants another payout.

    2. Gubby-Allen
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      On the bench.

      Although even had he have picked him, it would've been in a back four, so another who may need selling.

  19. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Don't mind Rash injury as am on FH in GW32 and WC in 33 so was looking at a punt on a Mahrez or Grealish in GW31 anyways

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Might get both

  20. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    If Rashford is out for a few weeks, people are going to jump on Grealish.

    Started so many in row, gets popular in FPL, you know what happens next...

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yup

    2. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      I’m just thinking of adding Odegaard alongside Saka now

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Pep is benching hol for 3-4 games?

    4. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      KDB

  21. Bartowski
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Hmm Gallagher might become a good option for Chelsea, I can see Frank backing him.

  22. Mweene
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Bruno blanked in 8 of last 9 games. People still own him?

    1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      You think because I own him, I have had him for 9 games? That's funny

  23. Pariße
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Not a penalty when hands are used to support your body.

    We’ve seen Soucek use the rule marvellously.

  24. DycheDycheBaby
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    I cannot believe Bruno is blanking this game

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      pegging up Pickford ststs

      1. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Wrong forum?

  25. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Chilwell benched

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yep

  26. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Bruno and Chilwell have been incredibly frustrating acquisitions

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Both won't be anywhere near my GW33 WC team

    2. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Don't follow so called experts, mate.

  27. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Thank goodness I have my WC still now that Shaw and Rash injured. Still tempted to keep in back pocket

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Can bench Shaw for now and sell Rashford for city mids. WC not needed

    2. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Thank goodness I transferred shaw for free last week and will transfer Rushford for free this week and didn't keep my wildcard when it moved me up 1.5 million places.

      1. Sure You Did
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        So insecure that you turn an innocuous comment into your insecurity about your WC. Keep validating young one 🙂

        1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 12 months ago

          So the guy above me agrees that there is no need for a wildcard because a player got injured in consecutive gameweeks but my comment which is simply a counter approach to the original post triggered you for some reason. You seem to have a personal knowledge of the world of insecurities that I have yet to experience. And why I would be insecure about moving up 1.5 million in rank seems at best illogical. But hey logic need not apply and clearly you just get angry easily so have at it senior, your mature ways are so much more advanced than mine... uh lol
