Another start for Greenwood as unchanged United take on Villa in Gameweek 34+ finale

The final fixture of Gameweek 34+ sees Aston Villa take on Manchester United.

Kick-off at Villa Park is at 20:15 BST.

There is little in the way of seismic team news, as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has named an unchanged starting XI for the fourth league game in a row.

Mason Greenwood (£4.7m) gets another start down the right flank, then, with Bruno Fernandes (£8.9m), Paul Pogba (£8.3m), Marcus Rashford (£9.1m) and Anthony Martial (£8.3m) supporting the budget FPL forward in attack.

There is only one change for Aston Villa, meanwhile, as Mbwana Samatta (£5.3m) comes into Dean Smith’s line-up to replace Keinan Davis (£4.3m).

Rashford, Martial and Greenwood are all owned between 46% and 51% of the top 10k, with Fernandes sitting in more than nine in ten Fantasy squads among this elite bunch.

Just under 20% of the top 10,000 FPL managers have captained the Portuguese midfielder.

Fernandes has averaged 8.9 points per match since he joined the Red Devils in January.

Aston Villa XI: Reina, Konsa, Hause, Mings, Taylor, Grealish, Luiz, McGinn, El Ghazi, Trezeguet, Samatta.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Matic, Pogba, Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial.

FPL Lessons Learned From Gameweek 34+

    Torn on this.

    A Son Jim > Vardy Willian (no Ings from 36 and Martial in 36 would mean a hit). Love the form

    B Son Maguire > Martial VVD and Ings from 36. Is VVD an upgrade on Maguire?

      It depends on your team. Basically use it when you would bring in a bunch of players that you wouldn't have in your normal team.

      For me that looks like 36 with Chelsea. You don't really want Chelsea for the last two fixtures in theory so FH 36 and get Pulisic, Willian, Azpi and then you don't have to worry about them for the rest of the season.

        Yeah this is what I was thinking but I could also save this weeks transfer, get in two Chelsea then sell one but Palace's form make me think I should get and extra Man U attacker. It is a dilemma for sure.

    Is selling Martial to Pulisic to free up a Man U slot then getting Greenwood in for DCL sensible?

    OR

    Sell AWB to 4.5ish defender (Garcia??) and DCL to Greenwood this week with funds to get Pulisic/Willian in for Luiz next week. Would mean benching headache for 2 weeks until I free hit in 38.
