Bryan Mbeumo makes a first return to Brentford since his move from west London to Manchester United over the summer.

Kick-off in the Gameweek 6 curtain-raiser at the Gtech Community Stadium is at 12.30pm BST.

TEAM NEWS

Mbeumo is joined in the visitors’ starting XI by Matheus Cunha, who made his return from a hamstring injury as a substitute last weekend.

That means that Rubem Amorim unites his big-money front three in a starting line-up for the first time, with Benjamin Sesko set to lead the line.

Cunha for the absent Amad Diallo, who has suffered a family bereavement, is one of three changes to United’s Gameweek 5 team.

Manuel Ugarte comes in for the suspended Casemiro in midfield, while the fit-again Diogo Dalot replaces the injured Noussair Mazrouai at wing-back.

Brentford boss Keith Andrews has made two alterations.

Aaron Hickey makes his first Premier League start in not far off two years, replacing Keane Lewis-Potter at left-back.

In an attacking move, Dango Ouattara comes in for Ethan Pinnock. That will see the Bees move to a 4-3-3, having used a 3-5-2 in recent weeks.

LINE-UPS

Brentford XI: Kelleher, Kayode, Collins, van den Berg, Hickey, Henderson, Damsgaard, Yarmolyuk, Schade, Ouattara, Thiago.

Subs: Valdimarsson, Henry, Pinnock, Ajer, Jensen, Onyeka, Milambo, Janelt, Lewis-Potter.

Manchester United XI: Bayindir, De Ligt, Maguire, Shaw, Dalot, Ugarte, Fernandes, Dorgu, Mbeumo, Cunha, Sesko.

Subs: Heaton, Lammens, Fredricson, Heaven, Leon, Yoro, Mainoo, Mount, Zirkzee.

    Finally brought Bruno in to stop suffering with his Defcons and penalties. Welp.

    An early thought for next GW,
    A) Pedro -> Gyökeres
    B) Muñoz, Richarlison -> Richards, Gyökeres -4

    Petrovic
    Porro Muñoz Senesi
    Salah Semenyo Enzo Reijnders
    Haaland Pedro Richarlison

    Dubravka KDH Alderete Gudmundsson

    Bruno to Saka if Saka scores?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 months, 19 days ago

      That's how it goes

      Or Sarr or Eze ...

    2. Qaiss
      • 9 Years
      2 months, 19 days ago

      Eh? How does that work? Where’s the relation. What if Saka scores a tap in but looks poor

      Point chasing basically

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years

      Gotta keep Bruno for SUN, then get rid

  7. Heskey Time
    • 11 Years

    Initial transfer thoughts. For free.
    Gakpo and Evanilson -> Minteh and Gyokeres?

  8. AC/DC AFC

    0 points from zero played.

      Could be worse

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        2 months, 19 days ago

        I transferred out Bruno.

        On here all week I kept questioning the choice

        Stuck to my guns.

    Mbeumo on pens now?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 months, 19 days ago

      Can't see it, unless Bruno misses again

  10. AC/DC AFC

    VAR claiming Mbeumo wasn't in control of the ball. On the YC onfield.

    I've not seen it yet or how obvious it was.

  11. Von Lipwig

    -5 from 1 played... I'm feeling blue. Come on Chelsea!

  12. Capocannonieri
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years

    Well, it's like I have a 3 man team.

    Haaland, Semenyo, and Sinesi

    Everyone else stunk or got negative points.
