Man Utd v Burnley team news: Cavani, Wan-Bissaka and Shaw start, Rashford benched

The final match of Gameweek 20 sees Manchester United play host to Burnley at Old Trafford.

Kick-off is at 20:15 GMT.

For the home side, Ralf Rangnick makes six changes from Gameweek 19, with Eric Bailly, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw coming in for Raphael Varane, Diogo Dalot and Alex Telles at the back, all of whom drop to the bench.

In midfield, Nemanja Matic replaces Fred, while further forward, Jadon Sancho and Edinson Cavani start in place of the suspended Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford.

Victor Lindelof again misses out after a positive Covid test, while Paul Pogba remains sidelined.

Under Rangnick, United are unbeaten in four matches in all competitions, but have scored only one goal in each game.

Meanwhile, at Burnley, they make two changes from their last match – a 0-0 draw at home to West Ham United all the way back in Gameweek 16.

In goal, Wayne Hennessey replaces Nick Pope, while Aaron Lennon also comes in for Jay Rodriguez.

That means Maxwel Cornet misses out again having failed to re-join team training, while Ashley Barnes, Connor Roberts and Josh Brownhill are also absent.

    Complain all you like that’s still 167x more legitimate than a deflected shot assist

      Still time for a pen fail

        And a red

  14. fricky_
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    This Man U defence is so bad, Jimenez is coming in

  15. CrouchDown
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Ronaldo effective ownership?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      ~25%

  16. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    No point in Burnley sitting back.

    Should open it up both ways. For all concerned

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      They are. They know they can trouble United.

    2. Diamondgeezer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      They would be better to keep it tight for now, coming back from 1-0 is very possible, 2-0 is a lot harder.

  17. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Burnley look horrible defensively

    1. Diamondgeezer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      United were terrible first game back after a long break, could be Burnley will be too, a bit like first game after preseason if they didn't get enough friendlies in.

  18. Boomerang V

    To survive in the Cup I need [(CR7) - (Tark) >= 20]

      Rona

      1. Differentiator
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Pepe Reina?

  21. fricky_
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

  27. Dannyb
    • 7 Years

  28. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Ronaldo is on 4 YCs. Didn't even process that. Could do with him getting booked.

    1. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Everyone would move to Kane and end up with more points.

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Or FH

    2. @FPL__Engineer

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        1. @FPL__Engineer
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          Ahh course!

      2. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        This is Uniteds 18th game.

        Extends after 19 played.

  29. Ephurion
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years

    Luke Maradonshaw essential!

  30. Ray85
