Another start for Greenwood as unchanged United take on Villa in Gameweek 34+ finale

The final fixture of Gameweek 34+ sees Aston Villa take on Manchester United.

Kick-off at Villa Park is at 20:15 BST.

There is little in the way of seismic team news, as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has named an unchanged starting XI for the fourth league game in a row.

Mason Greenwood (£4.7m) gets another start down the right flank, then, with Bruno Fernandes (£8.9m), Paul Pogba (£8.3m), Marcus Rashford (£9.1m) and Anthony Martial (£8.3m) supporting the budget FPL forward in attack.

There is only one change for Aston Villa, meanwhile, as Mbwana Samatta (£5.3m) comes into Dean Smith’s line-up to replace Keinan Davis (£4.3m).

Rashford, Martial and Greenwood are all owned between 46% and 51% of the top 10k, with Fernandes sitting in more than nine in ten Fantasy squads among this elite bunch.

Just under 20% of the top 10,000 FPL managers have captained the Portuguese midfielder.

Fernandes has averaged 8.9 points per match since he joined the Red Devils in January.


Aston Villa XI: Reina, Konsa, Hause, Mings, Taylor, Grealish, Luiz, McGinn, El Ghazi, Trezeguet, Samatta.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Matic, Pogba, Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial.

    Which of these goes for Fernandes (for a hit)? Tired of him killing me every week.

      Go 3-5-2. Who's your forward

        Already am, Foden is the 5th mid so can't afford the upgrade.

      I have the same mid with Foden. Just going without Bruno for the season now.

        But he's destroying my previously massive ML leads every single week (including the one I had him in on FH and he got a big fat blank).

      It’s too late

    Why did I cap Kane and VC Bruno

    1. Danstoke82
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      If there was a game Kane was gonna haul you’d think it would of been tonight. I took a -4 to get him as well. Absolute mare.

        No spurs shots on target at all.

        Bournemouth.

        Let that sink in 🙁

          Astonishing really. Mourinho has destroyed them

  3. Feanor

    Pogba ruins a Rashford goal, then scores himself. So selfish.

  4. FPL Blow-In

    Still can’t believe Wan Bissaka missed that chance earlier... how like 😆

    Bruno perma cap for rest of the season right? EO only going to be >100% from now on

    1. james 101
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I’m sticking with him I think

    2. Gomolon
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      KDB also over 100% EO though

  6. Gomolon
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Looks like divine intervention stopping Rashford from scoring, putting Pogba there as the last man

  7. Wild Rover

    Pogba and Bruno injure each other during celebration. Both likely to miss the next game..

      Mirror writer wanted to have them all for themselves in fpl XD

    Been unlucky as a Rashford owner. He's looked dangerous this half.

    1. diesel001
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      He hasn't. He took a long shot and one cross. He is playing like Son at Spurs - so wide left he may as well be in the stands.

        Lol go to bed

      2. Twisted Saltergater

        Was thinking the same. I wonder if Rashford and Son owners actually watch where their players play.

          As an 11 year vet you might want to watch your own team with that rank
