There’s one more match to go in Gameweek 14 and it comes from Old Trafford.

West Ham United travel to Manchester United, where the kick-off is at 20:00 GMT.

TEAM NEWS

Bruno Fernandes has been deemed fit enough to make the Man Utd starting XI, despite picking up a knock in the match against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Ayden Heaven, Noussair Mazraoui and Matheus Cunha are also in the starting line-up.

Matthijs de Ligt, presumably one of the fitness doubts Ruben Amorim mentioned in his pre-match presser, is not in the matchday squad.

Leny Yoro and Mason Mount drop to the bench.

Nuno Espirito Santo makes just one alteration for West Ham and it’s enforced.

Lucas Paqueta is suspended, so Tomas Soucek earns a recall.

LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: Lammens, Mazraoui, Heaven, Shaw, Amad, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dalot, Mbeumo, Cunha, Zirkzee

Subs: Bayindir, Dorgu, Malacia, Martinez, Yoro, Mainoo, Mount, Ugarte, Lacey

West Ham United XI: Areola, Wan-Bissaka, Todibo, Mavropanos, Diouf, Potts, Magassa, Soucek, Bowen, Fernandes, Wilson

Subs: Hermansen, Walker-Peters, Kilman, Rodriguez, Irving, Earthy, Marshall, Kante, Mayers

      Mbeumo to Foden going to be popular - I’m going to pull the trigger before this game ends I think.

          Yes, but that's still some time not training and playing.

      I sold him for Foden before price rise, FH last week... Bruno is the only possible pick. Yet, Esteve on 4 pts this week for much cheaper price.

    I was thinking Mateta -> Thiago
    Now I'm kinda over the double United attack and want to drop Mbeumo.

    What do you think about Mbeumo, Obi -> Merino, Thiago for a -4?

    It'll give me some benching headaches but more options, which I might need

    Utd were always going to crumble. If they can’t learn to put games to bed they will never progress… even if it stayed 1-0 they would be in 5th with a +2 goal difference. It’s mad when you look at their goal difference over the last few seasons…
