Varane and Sancho start as Man Utd visit Wolves in Gameweek 3

Fantasy Premier League’s (FPL) most popular player Bruno Fernandes (£12.1m) starts as Manchester United visit Wolverhampton Wanderers in the final match of Gameweek 3.

For the home team, Bruno Lage sticks with the same XI that featured against Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

That means another start for Adama Traore (£6.0m), who has taken 10 shots so far this season without scoring.

Long-term injury victims Jonny (£4.5m) and Pedro Neto (£6.5m) remain sidelined, but Willy Boly (£4.9m) and Daniel Podence (£5.5m) have returned as substitutes.

As for Man Utd, Raphael Varane (£5.5m) and Jadon Sancho (£9.3m) both start as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer makes three changes, with Daniel James (£6.0m) returning as Victor Lindelof (£5.0m), Nemanja Matic (£4.5m) and Anthony Martial (£7.8m) drop out.

As a result, Paul Pogba (£7.7m) could revert to a deeper midfield role alongside Fred (£5.0m).

Dean Henderson (£4.9m), Alex Telles (£5.0m), Scott McTominay (£5.5m)  and Marcus Rashford (£9.4m) are all absent, as expected.

Kick-off at Molineux is at 16.30 BST.

GAMEWEEK 3 LINE-UPS

Wolves XI: Sa, Kilman, Coady, Saiss, Semedo, Moutinho, Neves, Marcal, Trincao, Traore, Jimenez

Subs: Gibbs-White, Cundle, Podence, Ait-Nouri, Boly, Silva, Ruddy, Hoever, Dendoncker

Man Utd XI: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Maguire, Shaw, Fred, Pogba, James, Fernandes, Sancho, Greenwood

Subs: Lindelof, Dalot, Matic, Heaton, Martial, Lingard, Cavani, Mata, van de Beek

      Yes. Kane over Salah this week has already shown why. Salah had Chelsea and Kane had Watford

          Point is, Salah got a double digit return in a tough fixture and Kane got a one pointer in an easy fixture. Both will do well but Salah is more consistent and will always have the higher EO

    Any answers would be appreciated 😀

    Lloris - Sanchez
    TAA - Regu - Alonso (Will be James after ban) - Duffy - livra
    Salah - Son - Torres - Benrahmi - Jota
    Antonio - DLC - Obafemi

    1) is Lloris worth 5.5m, a million more then brent/brigh/watf gks
    2) Trade Lloris for Steele and use 1.5m on upgrading Obafemi to Armstrong
    2) plan is to trade DLC & Jota for CR7 & Allan or would you keep
