With Gareth Bale and Michu tearing up defences and delivering big returns from Saturday’s matches, there’s much anticipation ahead of Sunday’s programme. While Aston Villa’s clash with West Ham seems likely to be an edgy battle of attrition, the Old Trafford clash between United and Everton looks to have a lot going for it. Sir Alex Ferguson’s teamsheet will be of keen interest in that one, while the Toffees will be looking to repeat last season’s thrilling 4-4 draw and perhaps keep the title race interesting.

The early team news is in and sees Paul Lambert make three changes to the Villa XI, with Nathan Baker, Fabian Delph and Jordan Bowery replacing Joe Bennett, Karim El Ahmadi and Gabby Agbonlahor.

For the Hammers, Joe Cole and Emanuel Pogatetz come in for Matt Jarvis and Ricardo Vaz Te; Guy Demel is on the bench.

Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to provide a backdrop to the day’s action.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      You know what SJ. Both Milan and myself currently have Lamps in our draft.

      I'm thinking he's a great prospect due to him being on penalties and Jose being a big fan of him. Also he looking really good against Roma.

                  The team's been fairly settled for a while but only because I'm being stubborn about taking Bale out. Could be going through some revisions on Friday night.

                        Nice one, love your midfield for obvious reasons 😉

                        Strikers a bit too punty, no? Best to punt only on one of Lukaku / Dzeko methinks.

                        Really skeptical of Lukaku, be better off with a Chelsea defender? Jose defences are pretty hard to break down.

                        GW2 I plan to take a hit and do Lampard to Mirallas and Lukaku to Soldado. I want to go with Lukaku rather than a defender for the double, more potential.

                        Starting to get cold feet on Dzeko, think the sensible thing might be to get Lambert for the same price with penalties and no rotation worries.

                        Oh man, planning for a hit. Risky strategy methinks, of course risk/reward is there but there's a lot (injuries/transfers) that could go wrong by GW2. Definitely prefer Lambert over Lukaku, quite like Dzeko and freeing up a Chelsea def slot. The upside is there - they're the most likely to play 180 mins, everyone else is going to play significantly lesser.

                        Risky but its:

                        A) Buy 2 players with good home fixtures in GW2 -4

                        B) Buy 1 player with a good home fixture, have 2 Chelsea at Old Trafford and have to use a transfer GW3 to get one of them out

                        Seeing as I may have other pressng issues by GW3 I prefer A

          Do you remember that incident? Daniel spent all week begging Granville to play him for South Africa as it was his last chance but he'd taken a 20 point hit 😆
