Brentford v Man Utd and Leicester v Spurs team news: Ronaldo and Reguilon return

The final two matches of Double Gameweek 22 take place tonight, with Leicester City v Tottenham Hotspur getting underway at 19:30 GMT and Brentford v Manchester United kicking off half an hour later.

The big team news comes from west London, where Cristiano Ronaldo returns to the Manchester United XI after sitting out his side’s two recent meetings against Aston Villa in league and cup.

Scott McTominay is also back after a one-match ban, with Nemanja Matic dropping to the bench and Edinson Cavani missing out because of injury.

It’s an otherwise unchanged line-up, with Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial returning to the bench.

Luke Shaw and Aaron Wan-Bissaka miss out with a hamstring strain and illness respectively, while Jadon Sancho is unavailable due to a family bereavement.

Brentford give a debut to recent signing and £4.5m FPL goalkeeper Jonas Lossl, with Mads Bech Sorensen, Mathias Jensen and Sergi Canos also recalled.

Alvaro Fernandez, Rico Henry, Kris Ajer and Shandon Baptiste are all benched.

In the other match tonight, Leicester welcome back a host of faces from injury and illness.

Kasper Schmeichel, Caglar Soyuncu, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Luke Thomas and Patson Daka all return to the starting XI, while defender James Justin is among the substitutes as he makes a matchday squad for the first time in 11 months.

Sergio Reguilon returns from injury for Spurs, with the wing-back, Hugo Lloris and Oliver Skipp the three changes from the EFL Cup semi-final against Chelsea a week ago.

Pierluigi Gollini, Matt Doherty and Giovani Lo Celso make way, while Son Heung-min again misses out because of injury.

    Spurs looked better with 3 in the middle and only 2 up top, not great for Moura when Son comes back

    Ronaldo has played his last game for me regardless of fixtures. This guy has absolutely trashed my season.

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

    3. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Who do you replace him with though? Am in the same boat

      1. GreennRed
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Kane

        1. Danstoke82
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          I already own Kane and Dennis.. thinking of Ronny > Broja then bolster the midfield, play two up top as there isn’t many options in attack.

  19. DycheDycheBaby

    Worst double gameweek ever. Just an absolute shambles.

  22. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    I had Kane Captain all week ffs then changed it to the GOAT when he was “available”

    1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      It was a coin toss with spurs likely one game and Ronaldo likely starting

  23. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    35 in a DGW.

    Fcking joke

    1. Zimo
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

  24. SerieD
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Ronaldo --> Maguire. Oh life

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

    Captaining a 36 year old who was flagged wasn't the best idea.

    1. Kodap
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Lol, same

  26. Kodap
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Lol what a shambles of a gameweek, 62 all out & ronaldo over Bruno up there with my worst decisions so far. Rivals all went Bruno 🙁

  27. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    This game needs to be wrapped up by a dirty Bruno penalty

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Would love to see it.

  28. nerd_is_the_werd

    Bye Ronaldo, thanks for nothing.

    1. MikeS
      • 9 Years

      Hatrick next week

    2. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Even worse than nothing, lousy 2-pointer blocked a Maddison 10-pointer.

  29. Crouching Tiger
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    No extra points for chest pass... why did I transfer in & captain Ronaldo.

  30. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Need Bruno goal to hit 100 points. Unbelievable gw.
