With Romelu Lukaku (£11.5m) ruled out of tonight's match at Amex Stadium through injury, Fantasy Premier League managers are weighing up a move for another Manchester United player.

Marcus Rashford (£7.3m) may get an opportunity to start against Brighton & Hove Albion and could feature in each of United's remaining three matches. They also travel to West Ham United this Gameweek.

Rashford is part of only seven per cent of squads but could be considered for the run-in with the injured Lukaku set to be preserved for a return in the FA Cup final.

He has fired a shot every 29.2 minutes on average this season, bettering Lukaku's 33.3.

Lukaku has been sold by more than 160,000 managers ahead of tonight's 19:00 BST deadline. Gabriel Jesus (£10.4m) and Harry Kane (£13.1m) are the most popular replacements.

Full-strength Arsenal?

Arsenal host Burnley on Sunday in Arsene Wenger's final home match in charge.

The manager has shuffled his line-up in recent matches due to their involvement in the UEFA Europa League.

But after exiting the competition on Thursday, he could now name a full-strength side for the remaining three matches.

Alexandre Lacazette (£10.3m) may retain the lone striker role, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.7m) and Henrikh Mkhitaryan (£7.7m) playing on the flanks.

Aubameyang, in particular, could prove a key figure. He has produced a goal or an assist in six of his last seven appearances.

However, he has been sold by over 43,000 managers ahead of Arsenal’s fixtures against Burnley and Leicester City, having lost more than 194,000 owners in Gameweek 36.

Liverpool duo to punish sellers?

Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that he will name a strong line-up for Liverpool's visit to Chelsea on Sunday.

The Stamford Bridge match comes four days after the Merseysiders clinched a place in the UEFA Champions League final.

However, a win over Antonio Conte's side would also ensure Liverpool qualify for the same competition next season.

With only one fixture in Gameweek 37, Mohamed Salah (£10.5m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) have been the two most-sold players this week.

Both now look likely to start at Stamford Bridge, and Salah has already scored against his former club back in Gameweek 13.
