Gameweek 26 concludes at the home of the champions for a match-up which became a very different proposition only late last week with news of Claudio Ranieri’s departure.
The Foxes now hand the reins to caretaker manager Craig Shakespeare in a bid to halt a dismal run that has seen them lose all of their last five, with not a single goal scored in the six.
On paper, this seems a formality for Liverpool, then, although Jurgen Klopp’s men will surely be anticipating a reaction both from the team and the vociferous Foxes faithful tonight.
Nonetheless, the Reds arrive in buoyant mood. They come fresh from a fine 2-0 victory over Spurs back in Gameweek 25, a match that saw Sadio Mane emerge as a two-goal hero and a Fantasy hot property ever since.
Mane has been involved in 17 goals (scoring 11, assisting 6) – more than any other Liverpool player and is backed by more than 366,000 new owners, with over 113,000 FPL managers handing the Senegalese the captaincy.
7 years, 2 months agoThe ' gamble' on Kun
To not bring in Aguero if City have DGW and has lack of minutes tonight seems a no brainer as a rule even for a -4
It will depend on who you take out though as to whether its going to benefit by enough
Ibra seems too risky to swap and not big enough upside
But Lukaku against spurs away V Aguero V Sunderland and the Stoke
No Tfr
Lukaku no goal 2 points
1 goal and no bonus up to 3 6 pts to 9pts
Against Aguero 2 games and conservative estimate of 2 goals and 4 bonus points with the -4 still gives 12 points
each goal the after increases the gap further by 4 points
A lukaku or other player blanking only makes this more beneficial
Seems a risk not to bring him in , in my opinion.
Bring back Lukaku for GW 28
A lot will depend on the state of the team for GW28 etc and other issues of course
