After Sunderland’s win over Cardiff took the Black Cats out of the drop zone, our attentions turn to the summit as the top three sides prepare for action. In what could prove a decisive day in the race for the title, Liverpool welcome Chelsea to Anfield before City make their way to Selhurst Park to face a Palace side looking for a sixth straight win under Tony Pulis:

Our first stop is at Anfield, then, where the likes of Luis Suarez, Steven Gerrard and Raheem Sterling will be looking to grab the goals that would bring the Reds one step closer to clinching the title and end Chelsea’s bid for the crown.

Daniel Sturridge is on the bench for the hosts after recovering from a hamstring problem, whilst Jose Mourinho rings the changes for the visitors and makes seven alterations ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League semi-final second leg clash with Atletico Madrid.

Full details of the day’s starting lineups can be found via our Twitter feed, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom remains opens for those looking to indulge in some real-time banter.

    Last week played Ivan and Azpi for a point each with Baines stuck as 1st sub.

    This week I play Baines, sell Ivan and bench Azpi 😡

    Was originally going to sell Baines instead of Ivan as well but changed my mind. FFS.

          Yup, detailed stats are your friend...

          Although, do take them with a grain of salt as points can / will be added or subtracted after the match for things like winning goals or perhaps a late pass miss its target & in turn, that puts a players passing % below a particular threshold.

            And moreover... your computer have Google blocked or something?

            You think only a select few FPL Wizards around here are the only people who have access to this info?

          Just seen Willian's goal. Surely he should have passed it back to Torres? Torres should have had a shot, but decided not to.

            If you've held to Özil this long, why to sell him now that he finally returns?
