Tonight we have four of the eight double Gameweek teams on show, and the Dugout Discussion opens to follow all the action as it unfolds. There may be little real-life significance in the two fixtures, but with our Fantasy campaigns on-the-line, here is the all-important team news…

Liverpool XI: Doni, Kelly, Coates, Skrtel, Aurelio, Henderson, Shelvey, Spearing, Maxi, Carroll, Kuyt.

Fulham XI: Schwarzer, Kelly, Hangeland, Hughes, John Arne Riise, Duff, Murphy, Dembele, Kacaniklic, Dempsey, Pogrebnyak.

Kenny Dalglish shuffles his pack with this weekend’s FA Cup final in mind, and Martin Jol makes three changes to his side, as Danny Murphy, Stephen Kelly and Alex Kacaniklic are all handed starting berths.

Stoke XI: Begovic, Huth, Upson, Shawcross, Wilson, Walters, Whitehead, Delap, Etherington, Jones, Crouch.

Everton XI: Howard, Hibbert, Heitinga, Jagielka, Distin, Anichebe, Osman, Fellaini, Pienaar, Cahill, Jelavic.

Matthew Upson, Rory Delap and Kenwyne Jones all earn starts for the home side this evening, with Tim Cahill and Victor Anichebe coming in for the visitors.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom is open and can be accessed right here.

    It breaks my heart to think Hibbert, Walker and Terry (Huth was considered too) were millimetres from my team and to see my own defenders disgrace themselves is too painful to bear.

    Those who played Skrtel at the expense of Kompany...

    ...we're here for you guys.

    Let's huddle and try and retrieve my FPL instinct which has gone awry since GW35.
