Four more Premier League matches get underway at 15:00 BST this afternoon.

They include the fixture that many Fantasy managers are banking on – maybe more than hope in expectation – being a one-sided bloodbath: Manchester United v Burnley.

TEAM NEWS

Ruben Amorim makes one change from the team that drew at Fulham last weekend, with Diogo Dalot coming in for Patrick Dorgu.

Benjamin Sesko is only among the substitutes as visiting boss Scott Parker named an unchanged XI from the win over Sunderland.

Also sticking with the same line-ups from Gameweek 2 are the head coaches of Tottenham Hotspur and Bournemouth for their encounter in north London.

The headline team news from the 3pm kick-offs comes from Molineux, where the sought-after Jorgen Strand Larsen is absent.

Also missing is injured £4.0m defender Ki-Jana Hoever.

Hwang Hee-chan instead leads the line for Wolverhampton Wanderers, who also bring in Jackson Tchatchoua, Santiago Bueno, Hugo Bueno and Andre.

Matt Doherty, Jeanricner Bellegarde and David Moller Wolfe drop to the bench.

Beto is preferred to Thierno Barry up top for Everton, who also welcome back Vitaliy Mykolenko to their Premier League XI after his midweek recovery from injury.

Tim Iroegbunam makes way.

Finally, at the Stadium of Light, the hosts bring in Nordi Mukiele and Enzo Le Fee for the injured Dan Ballard and the benched Simon Adingra.

Brentford are unchanged.

          You must admit an element of luck as quite a few teams would not have been given that penalty.

          1. RICICLE
            • 3 Years
            7 months, 1 day ago

            Oh I admit it, but with captaincy place don him even to begin with shows the chance you take on a player I guess

          Bruno uses the same cheat codes as Salah. Wonder how many points they score in the 90th minute

      • RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        BRUNOOOOOOO CAPITAN’!!!

      • GoonerGirl
        • 6 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        So obvious, Dewsbury-Hall scores and assists, just when I've taken him out. Typical.

        1. keefy59
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          I started him alongside Grealish .
          Midfield is where the points come from so where possible play all 5 .
          KDH is my cheapest midfielder .

        2. trikster102
          • 13 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          Brought in Johnson to replace Palmer when I've got DH sat on the bench 🙁

          1. GoonerGirl
            • 6 Years
            7 months, 1 day ago

            I removed him for Sarr so hopefully he'll get something tomorrow.

      • brianutd-why always we? 20
        • 14 Years

        Captain goooooaalll

      • diesel001

        FPL showing it has now turned into a game of mostly luck. As was predicted by the Paradox of Skill

        1. ChelseaGuy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          Skill gets you consistent top X k finishes, to top the charts you always need luck

          1. diesel001
            • 9 Years
            7 months, 1 day ago

            That was true 5 years ago. We are now in a world where the balance of skill vs luck has tilted towards luck. In fact, FPL have made it more about luck with the addition of extra chips in the first half of the season

      • FantasyTony
        • 8 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        Never in doubt

      • Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        That's a 16 point goal for cappers?

        1. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          No Mbeumo is on 3 bonus. He can get 2 though.

      • GoonerGirl
        • 6 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        Lucky Bruno owners. So lucky.

        1. Strike me a Gakpose
          • 12 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          😆

      • Kaneyonero
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        Jammy as ever Bruno

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

      • F4L
        • 11 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        7 point goal? 😎

        1. chocolove
          • 15 Years

        2. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          6 maybe. Possibly 7 yeah.

          1. F4L
            • 11 Years
            7 months, 1 day ago

            should get winning goal bps to clinch it

            1. Zimo
              • 7 Years
              7 months, 1 day ago

              Then 7 yes

      • Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        7 months, 1 day ago

        Didn’t the pull contact start outside the box? Wtf is going on

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          • 13 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          Continued into the box is the rule

        2. Hughes Your Daddy
          • 13 Years
          7 months, 1 day ago

          Different rules for the big 6. See Chelsea earlier.

          1. Qaiss
            • 10 Years
            7 months, 1 day ago

            Today has been an awful day of footy, and yeah the decisions against big6 clubs are horrific. I say that as an Arsenal fan also

            1. jacob1989
              • 4 Years
              7 months, 1 day ago
