Gameweek 25 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues with Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur.

Kick-off is at 12.30pm GMT.

TEAM NEWS

Michael Carrick opts for an unchanged line-up as United seek a fourth league win on the bounce under his stewarship.

It means that Benjamin Sesko again has to settle for a place on the bench, despite grabbing the winner against Fulham last weekend.

Thomas Frank makes three changes to his Spurs side.

Micky van de Ven is back from injury, so Radu Dragusin drops to the bench. The Dutchman and Cristian Romero, who had been suffering from illness, were both passed fit by Thomas Frank yesterday.

Wilson Odobert and Pape Matar Sarr are also recalled after impressing off the bench against Manchester City. Yves Bissouma and Randal Kolo Muani make way.

Despite Frank saying that Djed Spence had a “good chance” of featuring, he misses out.

LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: Lammens, Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Shaw, Casemiro, Mainoo, Amad, Bruno Fernandes, Cunha, Mbeumo.

Subs: Bayindir, Mazraoui, Zirkzee, Malacia, Yoro, Ugarte, Heaven, Sesko, T Fletcher.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Vicario, João Palhinha, Romero, Van de Ven, Gray, Gallagher, Sarr, Udogie, Odobert, Simons, Solanke.

Subs: Kinsky, Dragusin, Bissouma, Tel, Kolo Muani, Souza, Olusesi, Byfield, Williams-Barnett.

      What you mean stream, are you not paying 3 different providers £80 a month to watch football, just not the 3pm kick offs?

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        19 days, 21 hours ago

        I most definitely wouldnt be using anything other than the official channels to watch the games.

      1. Absolutely Muñozed
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          you better pray for another attacking return. that would be more likely

        • g40steve
          • 7 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          Too far fwd

          19 days, 21 hours ago

          West Ham next - he may as well get it done now.

        2. g40steve
          • 7 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

        19 days, 21 hours ago

        Dalot sitting last on my bench….. D’oh!!

      5. Touré De Force
        • 15 Years
        19 days, 21 hours ago

        There's another goal in this yet

        1. JBG
          • 7 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          Almost Mbuemo just then

      6. JBG
        • 7 Years
        19 days, 21 hours ago

        Bruno on only 2 defcons, surprisingly

        1. Absolutely Muñozed
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            opposition got red card

            1. JBG
              • 7 Years
              19 days, 21 hours ago

              Yeah but MU have won the ball often high up the pitch or in the middle.

        2. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          Mbeumo or Wirtz is the question

          1. Count of Monte Hristo
            • 12 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            Mbeumo imo

            Ekitike instead of Wirtz perhaps

          2. Magic Zico
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            Both is the answer 😉

        3. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          Bruno beats Gandhi 😛

          1. g40steve
            • 7 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            Thank F for that

          Somebody convince me that Ally McCoist isn't the most annoying co-commentator in football...

          1. The-Red-1
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            Sorry but I agree.

            So exuberant about the most mundane and simple things!

            Uses phrases like "out of this world" for blocks and headers etc

            1. MissouriMarten
              • 10 Years
              19 days, 21 hours ago

              Exactly - the king of hyperbole. And he precedes most of it with "I've gotta say", "I'll tell you what", "I'll be honest with you Flettttttch". So irritating.

              1. The-Red-1
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 8 Years
                19 days, 21 hours ago

                Ah God, I can imagine him saying all of these! Haha

                "Unbelieeeeevable touch there, my WORD"

          Camzy on here with Bruno (c), Mbeumo and Lammens is cooking!

        6. Fifa las vegas
          • 13 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          Think I need Mbeumo as well as Bruno. This Arsenal double could’ve been more harm than good, getting Rice just for the sake of it.

          He does have to play yet I guess though!

          1. JBG
            • 7 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            Yup.. watch Mbuemo outscore him despite the double next GW

          2. Sun Jihai
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            Yep, Bruno has 100% ownership among engaged managers now so you really need more

          Hard to get Defcon when the opponents don’t attack

        10. Sandy Ravage
          • 10 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          Hold Dalot

        11. CoracAld2831
          • 5 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          Good to be on the right side of captaincy for a change.

          (Hopefully)

        12. JBG

          Haaland yet again a spy, wtf are people doing? How boring can you be?

          1. Mr. O'Connell
            • 13 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            Arguably Bruno is more dullard

            1. JBG
              • 7 Years
              19 days, 21 hours ago

              Haaland has been a spy all season long, Bruno just became a very good pick.

              There's a difference

          2. Brosstan
            • 11 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            With 99% ownership.. all it takes is a miniscule amount of caps to make him a spy.

        13. Brosstan
          • 11 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          On route for 120 points this GW if the rest of my players keep up with the average so far.

            I’d take the 88 tbh

          Anyone else started Dub over Briefs?

          1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
            • 5 Years
            19 days, 21 hours ago

            no but he's subbing on for me in place of Sels

        15. Fifa las vegas
          • 13 Years
          19 days, 21 hours ago

          Pressure on Ekitike captain now, yikes, I never make it easy
