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

    AWB should have gotten a 2nd yellow.

    Ref lacked courage.

    FPL was robbed of a late Bruno goal against 10 men.

    1. #1 Salah Hater
      • 1 Year
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Clearly didn't watch the Everton game then

  2. abaalan

    Got 4ft, 1.5 itb
    A. Pope, VVD, sarr, mateta > Raya, konate, foden, woltemade
    B. Pope, Enzo, sarr, Semenyo > Henderson, foden, Bruno, kdh

  3. Total Slotball

    Captaining a deep lying midfielder gets 4 points. Not sure what else anyone's expecting?

    1. Studs Up
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Yip, everyone is a genius in hindsight

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      DM, missing a RC

  4. Pompel
    • 12 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Adios, Buemo - thanks for nothing. I'll rather watch Foden 1 pt cameo this weekend.

    1. #1 Salah Hater
      • 1 Year
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Yeah, he was horrendous tonight.

  5. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Rage transfer Bruno out

  6. Khalico
    • 10 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    1. keep Semenyo or Gakpo?
    2. Mateta or Woltemade ?

    1. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Keep g
      I just got rid of mateta for Thiago keeping wolte

    They hated him because he told them the truth

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      He wasn't good but United had worse players than him tonight.

      1. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Never said he was bad, I said this team is

    2. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Not the wildest of predictions, I don’t think this is a big surprise to anyone

      1. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Other than all the people predicting double figures and the thousands who captain him, sure

  8. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Mbeumo ➡ Palmer soon for me

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Won't be match fit for a few weeks.

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Pencilled in for GW 18

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          3 months, 2 days ago

          Hopefully he can hit form. Could make for interesting second half of the season between them, City and Arsenal.

  9. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Last 6 GW’s:
    Mateta 22 points
    Bowen 20 points

    Makes me feel slightly better not making the transfer of Bowen to Mateta after the hat-trick

  10. fedolefan
    • 11 Years

    Bruno cap was good decision bad outcome..lol

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Music to my ear 😛

  11. BazingtoN
    • 1 Year
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Sorry Mbeumo i've had you since GW1 but its time to go > Foden in good luck at AFCON i can't take it anymore and i'm a united fan

    1. Total Slotball
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      only thing is, it's Wolves...

  12. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Classic Fpl. No Bruno on FH = two jammy assists and 3 bonuses. Bruno back in normal team = three great chances wasted and nothing.

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Great chances?

    2. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Bruno and dew hall saved my fh

  13. Saka Punch
    • 7 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    FH Draft:

    Pickford
    Thiaw Munoz O'Reilly
    Bruno F Gakpo Barnes Foden
    Welbeck Haaland Woltemade

    Any changes/suggestions welcome

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      O’Reilly a starter risk?

      1. #1 Salah Hater
        • 1 Year
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Absolutely. City at their best with Gvardiol LB. Pep will come to his senses sooner or later.

  14. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Everyone gonna rage transfer out United players before they play Wolves?
    I don’t own any, but I’d keep for one more personally if I did

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      I’ll keep Mbeumo alright. Depending on the rice situation I might need to FH though

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      yeah agreed, bruno is doing well and mbeumo yeah poor but for me at least has credit in the bank

      did think wolves were very very average vs forest, expected more from them after people said they did well at villa park. were leaving quite abit of space for ndoye and hutchinson as well

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      I own Bruno and Mbeumo and just rage transfered Mbeumo out

  15. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    78 points with Semenyo cap, I'll take it

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      And well you should. Fair play.

    2. Silecro
      • 8 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Fair play, im on 69 and capped Munoz. Just had a hunch about him. Think i'll cap defenders more this season

  16. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Semenyo >>

    1. Bruno G
    2. Barnes

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Semenyo to score this weekend.

      1. Fifa las vegas
        • 13 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Really regret doing him to Foden just for the cash. Should’ve waited to see what the story is with Rice

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      I still have faith in Semenyo, but i don't have in any of the Newcastle attackers for some reason

    3. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      1.

    4. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Think worth keeping but otherwusev1

  17. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Wolverhampton to get their first win of the season on Monday night.

    1. #1 Salah Hater
      • 1 Year
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Nope. The thing with Amorim is he spaces out his wins between awful results to keep gaslighting Utd fans into thinking it's a player problem.

  18. Jordan.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    awful bomo,awful

  19. Yes Ndidi
    • 6 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Current team
    Sanchez Dubravka
    Munoz Timber VVD Esteve Senesi
    Semenyo Mbeumo Ndiaye Reijnders Foden
    Haaland Matetea Thiago

    Very tempted to WC tonight into this (exact money)
    Raya Dub
    Timber Munoz O'Reilly Thiaw JPvH
    Palmer Rice Foden Anderson KdH
    Haaland Woltemade Thiago

    Any thoughts?
    Midfield might be a bit week, & Palmer a risk I suppose, but can go anywhere from him.
    I wouldn't have a problem starting any of them in the right fixture.

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      & I know Rice is flagged

    2. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      You get 5 ft soon

      1. Yes Ndidi
        • 6 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        I know. I'd like to roll with them into the 2nd half of the season. Would be a huge advantage

  20. ball c
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Which option for my 1 FT:

    A) Cunha to Foden
    B) Muniz to Thiago (will be a bench issue).

    Raya

    Virgil - Munoz - O’Reilly

    Cunha - Bruno - Semenyo - Anderson - Minteh
Haaland - Mateta 



    Dubravka - Senesi - Andersen - Muniz


    1. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      A

      1. ball c
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Do it before price rise tonight?

        1. Bggz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          3 months, 2 days ago

          Yep

    2. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      B.

  21. F4L
    • 11 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    like i know how attacking munoz is, but do you think non owners have missed the boat abit? just gone through a purple patch, he's only 1 goal off last seasons tally already now. was reluctant to double up with lacroix a few GWs back, take that one on the chin

    1. ball c
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      He’s a good option

    2. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      I don’t think so. He underperformed for goal outputs last season if anything

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      He's still a buy imo

    4. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      He's like Foden, in that you won't know when that purple patch is over until it has been for a while. He's also my favourite player in the game, and first name in the first draft each year.
      That said, I don't think I'd double up on their defence now. If you own, he's a season keeper, but I wouldn't buy him.

    5. F4L
      • 11 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      thanks all

  22. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Mateta's on the bench for me right now. Sounds kinda wrong, but it's right based on the results

  23. Stranger Mings
    • 5 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Please pick
    A) pope to ramsdale
    B) mbeumo to foden (play dub)
    C)pope & semenyo to foden& verbruggen -4
    D) pope & mbeumo to pickord/donurrama & foden -4

    1. Von Lipwig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      B for me

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Ywh maybe and hope dub gets save points for a 2 pointer

  24. Radulfo28773
    • 4 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Tempted to have triple City, Newcastle… and Liverpool! on FH. Mad, right?

    1. Von Lipwig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Frre hit is all about playing the fixtures so not mad. You go for a big win or don't bother

      1. Radulfo28773
        • 4 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Thanks mate, I am doing it!

        1. Fifa las vegas
          • 13 Years
          3 months, 2 days ago

          Good luck!

    2. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      I’d be wary about Liverpool away to Leeds. They were like United for a lot of last night!

      I’m tempted to FH for city Newcastle though.

      Although I would like Woltemade I’d be worried about losing one of Thiago or Welbeck either given their fixtures

    3. Kingy109
      • 4 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Brighton

    4. Saka Punch
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Happy to share your FH team?

      I'm also FH'ing so interesting to see what you go with

      1. Radulfo28773
        • 4 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Verbruggen
        VVD Gvardiol Thiaw
        Gakpo Guimaraes BrunoF Foden
        Woltemade Isak Haaland(c)

        Dubravka KDH VanHecke Esteve

        Tempted by Pickford/Tarkowski and Minteh/Welbeck

  25. Fifa las vegas
    • 13 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    I’ve asked this last night, but will I need to FH this due to starter risks?

    Sanchez
    Calafiori, Munoz, O’Reilly
    Foden, Gakpo, Mbeumo, Rice
    Haaland, Thiago, Welbeck

    Dub, Rogers, VdV, Senesi

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      No clue what I’d FH into either though!

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Keep

  26. Von Lipwig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    OK, heres a big list for y'all. I want to make a transfer this week because of the AFCON extra transfers coming up. Pretty happy with my team, so in usual times this would be a hold for me, but here is my list. Who would you proritise?

    Current team:
    Raya (Dubravka)
    Timber O'Reilly Guehi Senesi Gudmundson
    Semenyo Bruno Foden Enzo KDH
    Mateta Haaland Woltemade

    Possible in:
    DEF: Munoz, Thiaw, Keane
    MID: Gakpo, Minteh
    FOR: Thiago

    1. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Why do people keep mentioning Keane? What am I missing?

      Munoz or Minteh

      1. Von Lipwig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        Fair point. Only included him because of Let's Talk FPL tbh

      2. Von Lipwig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 months, 2 days ago

        O'Reilly (city awful defense) to Munoz?

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          3 months, 2 days ago

          James?

  27. The Mandalorian
    • 13 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    United have looked impotent since Sesko got injured and when Cunha's not on the pitch.

    Mbeumo is a sell.

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Do you think they looked good when Sesko and Cunha started? Mbeumo was poor tonight but scored more than both of them combined. Cunha wasn't great either. AFCON soon so need to sell Mbeumo regardless of form.

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Agree but wolves next

  28. GreennRed
    • 14 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    Keano, Billic and Chappers is better than the match.

  29. Von Lipwig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    A) Semenyo > Minteh
    B) O'Reilly > Munoz

  30. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 months, 2 days ago

    8th attacker: Anderson, KDH, Wieffer or Xhaka/Le Fee

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      3 months, 2 days ago

      Andetson or kdh
