Three more Gameweek 35 matches take place this Sunday, with Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur following on from two afternoon kick-offs.

TEAM NEWS

Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola brings in Tyler Adams and Rayan.

Ryan Christie and David Brooks drop to the bench.

Palace, with one eye on the second leg of their UEFA Conference League semi-final against Shakhtar Donetsk on Thursday, make five changes.

Chris Richards, Tyrick Mitchell, Adam Wharton, Ismaila Sarr and Jean-Philippe Mateta are demoted to substitute duty.

Chadi Riad, Justin Devenny, Jefferson Lerma, Brennan Johnson and Jorgen Strand Larsen come in.

At Old Trafford, the Manchester United team news is straightforward: Matheus Cunha in for the benched Amad Diallo.

Liverpool’s two alterations are enforced, with Ryan Gravenberch and Jeremie Frimpong replacing the injured Mohamed Salah and Alexander Isak.

Alisson Becker has failed to recover, so Freddie Woodman continues between the posts.

    Just seen on BBC football that Jeremie Frimpong could play as a centre forward if Isak is out! 😯

        "...if Isak is ruled out to face Michael Carrick’s team, Slot has a huge selection headache in terms of who he plays as at centre forward given Mohamed Salah and Hugo Ekitike are also out due to injury.

        One potential option is to play Cody Gakpo as a makeshift No 9, while it is understood Slot has also looked at the possibility of using Jeremie Frimpong as a central attacker if Isak is unavailable."

          Surely Gakpo up top, Ngumoha on the left, Frimpong or Chiesa on the right with Wirtz in the hole. Nothing else makes sense.

        Prob wait to see what happens after the euro games... just in case of injuries or tweaks. All being ok, Depends if you think Palace or Arsenal keep a CS. Arsenal do, thats 6, Munoz would need a CS, DC or bonus in at least one of the 2 games to match that. I'm not confident on Palace, so would edge to Saliba as more at stake for Arsenal.

      The hope with VAR was that if a foul was missed on the field, an official could watch a replay and advise the ref to award it. What we didnt realise is that it would highlight how bad officials are in making subjective calls.
