Manchester United v Bournemouth rounds off Gameweek 16 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL).

The Cherries have won 3-0 in each of their last two visits to Old Trafford, with Andoni Iraola unbeaten in four fixtures against United across all venues.

Antoine Semenyo, in the Bournemouth XI tonight as expected, scored both home and away against the Red Devils last season.

Kick-off in this latest meeting between the two clubs is at 20:00 GMT.

TEAM NEWS

The big team news is that Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo are available to play, and start, for United this evening.

They head off to the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) with Cameroon and the Ivory Coast, respectively, after tonight’s game. There had been a little bit of doubt that they’d feature against the Cherries in the lead-up to Gameweek 16.

Noussair Mazraoui is, however, unavailable. His Morocco side contests the AFCON opener on December 21, so his departure has been hastened.

Leny Yoro starts in his place but that’s it for changes from the side that won 4-1 at Wolverhampton Wanderers last Monday.

Benjamin Sesko has overcome a knee injury and a bout of food poisoning to make the matchday squad for the first time in over a month. He’s among the substitutes.

As for the visitors, Marcos Senesi is fit to start after a minor injury scare.

Bournemouth’s one and only alteration from Gameweek 16 comes in midfield: Tyler Adams, back from suspension, is in for the benched Alex Scott.

LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: Lammens, Yoro, Heaven, Shaw, Amad Diallo, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dalot, Mbeumo, Cunha, Mount.

Subs: Bayindir, Martinez, Zirkzee, Malacia, Dorgu, Ugarte, Mainoo, Sesko, Fredricson.

Bournemouth XI: Petrovic, Smith, Diakite, Senesi, Truffert, Adams, Jimenez, Tavernier, Kluivert, Semenyo, Evanilson.

Subs: Dennis, Araujo, Soler, Brooks, Scott, Adli, Kroupi, Hill, Unal.

      So frustrating!!!

  2. Ady87

    After failing to do Mbeumo to Saka on deadline day due to overlooking a boomo price drop I could do with 11 points minimum here.

    1. Fifa las vegas

      I want him to match Wilson! And that just isn’t happening. Just get one goal at least ffs

  3. Yes Ndidi

    No horses running tonight & on a 2pt green arrow, so an Evanilson goal now and everyone over 5% owned to get sent off would be lovely

    tavernier very close. his late runs look decent ngl

  5. Herger

    This is Utd’s best frontline. They should see in January if they can get 15m for Zirkzee, 10m for Sesko and put the money towards a CM.

    Need to start bashing Mbeumo a lot more to get something out of him. Do something you bald fraud.

  7. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years

    Do something Mboomo!

  8. TheSteel

    This has Senesi goal written all over it.

  9. Fifa las vegas

    Man Utd currently in Europa League. Incredible! This is truly the season of the underdog

    1. Moon Dog
        3 months, 28 days ago

        5th will probably be Champion's League again this season.

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Which 2 to play?

      A) Chalobah (A NEW)
      B) Raul (H NFO)
      C) Senesi (H )
      D) Rodon (H CPL)
      E) Timber (A EVE)

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        Sorryqhich 2 to bench?

        1. Gubby-Allen
          • 4 Years
          3 months, 28 days ago

          D.

          Timber and Chalobah will probably both concede so would be based on goals or assists.

          Depends who GK is.

          1. RamaJama
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            3 months, 28 days ago

            Dub

      2. TheSteel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        CA

      3. Ray85
        • 8 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        DA

      4. tucaoneo
        • 7 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        D. The other one is tough.

    3. Gubby-Allen
      • 4 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      3rd place player in the game has him, so everyone could overtake him.

    4. Ady87
      • 12 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      City would be 4-0 up with the same chances created.

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 6 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        Probably Haaland hatty

    5. F4L
      • 11 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      that would've been special

    6. tucaoneo
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Whatever happens here I just couldn't bring myself to sell Semenyo before Burnley.

      1. Fifa las vegas
        • 13 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        I’d agree. But I also can’t bring myself to get him in as I was planning to.

        1. tucaoneo
          • 7 Years
          3 months, 28 days ago

          Oh yeah definitely not a buy if you don't have him

      2. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        He'll come good

        No doubt!

    7. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Boomo come on. What a goal that would have been.

    8. Fifa las vegas
      • 13 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Just score Mbeumo! Fecking hell

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 6 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        Allergic to goals it seems

        1. Fifa las vegas
          • 13 Years
          3 months, 28 days ago

          Could have 2 already in another day if the odd ball fell better for him and he didn’t shin that Cunha cross

    9. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      He's shinned it

      Mbeumo over hit it

      Just over

      Looking to sign off with a goal

    10. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Casemiro needs to stop shooting.

    11. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Ofc Casemiro wastes Bruno Assist
