Thursday night sees Gameweek 37 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) come to a conclusion, as Manchester United host Chelsea at Old Trafford. A point for Erik ten Hag’s side will secure UEFA Champions League qualification for next season.

Kick-off is at 20:00 BST.

Whilst the match is on, Andy North and arch-rival Greyhead will be chatting about their teams and the week’s biggest talking points over on our YouTube channel in another exclusive video for Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout.

The live chat will be open as usual and the stream is watchable via the embedded video below from 20:00 BST.

As for the team news, Man Utd are unchanged from the side that started their 1-0 win over Bournemouth on Saturday. That means Marcus Rashford returns as a substitute, having missed the past two games through injury and illness.

Meanwhile, Frank Lampard makes three changes from Sunday’s defeat at Manchester City, as Carney Chukwuemeka, Noni Madueke and Mykhailo Mudryk come in for Thiago Silva, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Raheem Sterling, who isn’t even on the bench.

Joao Felix, however, has recovered from the minor injury that forced him to drop out of the matchday squad last weekend and starts as a sub.

GAMEWEEK 37 LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Lindelof, Shaw, Casemiro, Eriksen, Antony, Fernandes, Sancho, Martial

Subs: Butland, Maguire, Rashford, Malacia, Fred, Dalot, Weghorst, McTominay, Garnacho

Chelsea XI: Kepa, Azpilicueta, W Fofana, Chalobah, Hall, Enzo, Chukwuemeka, Gallagher, Madueke, Mudryk, Havertz

Subs: Mendy, Thiago Silva, Pulisic, Felix, Loftus-Cheek, Ziyech, Koulibaly, D Fofana, Gilchrist

  3. jason_ni

    Mad to sell Haaland for Kane?

    Other route without hit is salah out, which seems crazy as well.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 21 days ago

      Not if Haaland is benched.

      Chanting what?

      1. jason_ni
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 21 days ago

        Jaime Rednapp is a w@%&era

        You scouse b@£*@*&

        1. jason_ni
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 21 days ago

          He took it well, laughed it off, water off a ducks back.

          1. Hairy Potter

            I remember years ago Redknapp coming on for Liverpool after an injury lay off. The commentator kept on saying you had to feel sorry for how unlucky he was. My mates starting listing the facts that he was a millionaire, played for a good club, was usually in the England squad, had model looks and he got to wake up to Louise out of Eternal every morning. Yeah, we felt really sorry for him!

        2. Vote Joke
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 21 days ago

          Probably isn’t one though. Unlike players like Grealish and Maddison.

      2. Robe Wan

        Jamie Redknapp is a w nker

        Highbrow stuff

  5. The Senate

    Excuse me who are these Man Utd players getting points that are neither Bruno nor Rashford?

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 21 days ago

      Luke shaw

        Lol

    2. Firminooooo
      • 10 Years

      Just waiting for Shaw to be taken off before 60 min. This is getting ridiculous.

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 21 days ago

        Timing

      2. Biggsy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 21 days ago

        Called it

      3. OptimusBlack
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 21 days ago

        Don't say that again

  6. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 21 days ago

    I just remembered that my vc is Shaw. Baldy could have given me one by saving Haaland for 38 "rhytm game".

  7. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 21 days ago

    As it stands, before anything...

    Where do you predict Arsenal & Man United to finish next season?

    Either/both closer to a title race or Top 4 race?

    1. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 21 days ago

      2nd and 1st respectively.

      City 12th due to points deduction

    2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 21 days ago

      Impossible to know until the summer window closes.

    3. Digital-Real
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 21 days ago

      race for 5th place

    4. Hairy Potter
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 21 days ago

      Arsenal 3rd and Man Utd 4th. Depends if Man Utd get a striker and score more goals.

      1. Hairy Potter
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 21 days ago

        A lot depends on the recruitment this summer. If Liverpool get in 2-3 good quality midfielders they could be in the mix. If Chelsea get a striker who can score then they could challenge for top 5. I think Arsenal and Newcastle will find it harder with more midweek matches.

    5. ZimZalabim
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 21 days ago

      As it stands top 4 - 6 race and out of Europe early.

      But if United get a striker like Kane and a Casemiro back up then title race is on

      Arsenal will need maybe 2-3 signings (plus 2-3 better back up/squad players) to just stay at a top4 level, I cant see them challenging for the title next year regardless of what they do in the summer, unless Liverpool and Chelsea continue to under perform, so not in their control

  8. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 21 days ago

    Lindelof was close to scoring that first goal.

  9. g40steve
    • 8 Years
