Bournemouth face Manchester United in the first of two Premier League matches to take place on Sunday.

Kick-off at the Vitality Stadium is at 14:00 BST.

Andoni Iraola names the same team that started the 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace in Gameweek 33.

That means Kepa Arrizabalaga, Milos Kerkez and Justin Kluivert, the only players on show with a double-digit ownership in the top 10k, all start.

Ruben Amorim makes five changes to his starting XI, however.

Harry Maguire, Leny Yoro, Luke Shaw, Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes come in.

Victor Lindelof, Tyler Fredricson, Harry Amass, Manuel Ugarte and Christian Eriksen drop to the bench.

      I don't have Kepa but its a horse turd feature of the game that he could have got injured and come off on 89 mins and got all those points but because he kept a clean until 95 but not beyond he gets penalised. Its like the bonus rewarding strikers for missing sitters provided they hit the target. Some really dumb quirks of the game. Get yourself 90 minute men unless they are defenders in which case just get yourself 60 minute men to be on the safe side.

        that's rough going. Certainly would be in favour of them giving some points for getting a clean past a certain stage of the match and then more if its all the game. The all or nothing nature of cleans is just too volatile.

              I think the skills in not falling for traps, keeping your head, not doing stupid things as much as doing the right things which are obvious most of the time. All things I'm guilty of (the bad bits) so I'm lacking in skill as well as luck most years.

                Yeah I know what you mean, but interestingly I’ve done really well managing a second team this season where I’ve gone early on ‘traps’, enjoyed his 4 goals vs Brighton for example.

                Also jumped on Evanilson during his purple patch, double Forest defense etc.

                So I think again it’s just luck, those punts could have easily not paid off, if it was in my main team I certainly wouldn’t go for it for example, so I’m learning next season to take more risks on supposed traps

      Pool have definitely looked more on edge of late. I expected a spanking of Leicester and West Ham and they didn't come. Might be one of those where if they score early the floodgates open. Probably helps the atmosphere will be a massive party regardless as they don't need to win.
