Game week 2 arrives at its conclusion this evening as Liverpool welcome Bournemouth to Merseyside for the first ever league meeting between the two clubs. After a multitude of armband options failed us again, many will be looking to Reds attack to save yet another disappointing round of results for Fantasy managers.

Certainly, Liverpool carried plenty of threat in front of their own fans last season. Despite scoring only 30 times at Anfield in 2014/15, Brendan Rodgers’ men fired a total of 331 attempts – only City and Arsenal managed more efforts when it came to home encounters.

As for Bournemouth, they arrive at Anfield boasting a fine away record in their Championship winning season, claiming eight victories and suffering just five defeats on the road, with a goal difference of plus 30.

Delving into last week’s data, though, tonight’s two sides managed just one big chance and five shots on target between them in Gameweek 1, suggesting that both sides will need to improve in the final third should they have ambitions for three points.

    Would love a little confidence boost here. Gone from 2nd to bottom this week and played my wildcard and feel like I have finallly got a team to go forward with
    Please RMWCT to start GW 3

    Butland (Myhill)
    Kompany Williams Muniesa (Richards, Huth)
    Yaya Sanchez Payet Mahrez (Westwood)
    Aguero Gomis Benteke

    Worried getting rid of hazard will come back to haunt me

    1. zuzuViking
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I would be worried as well, but the risk is worth it in my opinion. Just have a plan to get him in as backup.

  16. Cheezeweasel
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Is it too much to have Sanchez and ozil when I have no united cover? Should Ozil be swapped with Mata?

    1. zuzuViking
      11 years, 2 months ago

      No. United is not attacking well atm. However, Arsenal does not deserve two mids either.

  17. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    11 years, 2 months ago

    A) Team before WC:

    Goalkeeper: Cech
    Defence: Cedric Kolarov Azpillicueta
    Mids: Mané ,Ozil ,Walcott, Sterling
    Forwards: Rooney, Benteke, Defoe

    Bench: Schwarzer wanyama Morgan Williams

    B) Team after WC:

    Goalkeeper: Romero
    Defenders: Darmian Kompany Williams
    Midfielders: barkley Mahrez Payet Ozil Sanchez
    Forwards: Lukaku Aguero

    Bench: Schwarzer Kone Ward Steven-Taylor

    I will swap Kone for one of my midfielders due to fixtures

    THANK YOU!!!!!!!
