In the final match of Gameweek 27, Sheffield United is set to face Arsenal at Bramall Lane in a clash that promises excitement and intensity. The match, kicking off at 20:00 GMT, features the 20th-placed team against the 3rd-placed Arsenal.
Unchanged from their commanding victory over Newcastle United nine days ago, Arsenal fields the same lineup for this crucial encounter. However, manager Mikel Arteta welcomes back Thomas Partey, who finds a place on the bench for the first time since October. Gabriel Jesus also makes the substitutes’ list, providing additional options for Arteta’s side.
Sheffield United’s manager, Chris Wilder, makes two changes to the XI that put up a commendable performance in their previous match at Molineux. Tom Davies earns his first start for the Blades, with Yasser Larouci making way. Ollie McBurnie is also back in the starting lineup, replacing Rhian Brewster. The return of Ben Brereton Diaz and George Baldock from injury sees them included among the substitutes.
Three players on display in this match hold significant fantasy football value, featuring in more than one in three squads within the top 100,000. Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Magalhaes, and William Saliba have captured the attention of fantasy managers, with Saka’s ‘effective ownership’ exceeding 100% due to 16% of managers entrusting him with the captain’s armband.
