TEAM NEWS

There’s no Murillo for Nottingham Forest today as Ange Postecoglou’s side travel to Turf Moor.

There are three changes in all for the Tricky Trees from last weekend, with Oleksandr Zinchenko, Douglas Luiz and Dilane Bakwa coming in.

Ibrahima Sangare and Callum Hudson-Odoi make way.

Florentino replaces the suspended Lesley Ugochukwu for Burnley.

At the Amex, Xavi Simons is the latest victim of Thomas Frank’s rotation. Also being culled are Pape Matar Sarr and Djed Spence.

Destiny Udogie, Joao Palhinha and Wilson Odobert all start.

Brighton make four changes with Brajan Gruda, Carlos Baleba, Ferdi Kadioglu and Yasin Ayari all starting.

James Milner and Danny Welbeck are benched, while Jack Hinshelwood and Maxim De Cuyper miss out with injuries.

Jorgen Strand Larsen is only fit enough for substitute duty at Molineux.

Jose Sa, Jackson Tchatchoua, Jeanricner Bellegarde and Fer Lopez oust Sam Johnstone, Hugo Bueno, Andre and Hwang Hee-chan.

Leeds are unchanged.

Finally, at the London Stadium, Crystal Palace’s sole alteration sees Adam Wharton return from a groin injury and replace Jefferson Lerma in midfield.

West Ham have made two tweaks. Alphonse Areola replaces Mads Hermansen in goal, while Callum Wilson comes in for the suspended Tomas Soucek.

        Munoz, Senesi, Chalobah, Gudmundsson, Esteve.
        Semenyo, Grealish, Palmer, Kudus, Reijnders.
        Haaland, Ekitike, Gyokeres.

        Bit of a benching headache this week, otherwise Ekitike to Pedro is an option. I might roll though. Or just switch Munoz to someone with a better fixture and def cons.

          The irony is that Bruno is world class playing as a 10 or an 8 in a 433, and now United have sold all their exciting wingers! All they had to do was sign someone like Elliott Anderson to protect the back 4.

          Munoz seems kind of overpriced vs Lacroix and Richards...not getting the attacking returns, even when he does get the 1 in 4 games attacking return, Richards and Lacroix can keep up with their defcons and cheaper prices.
