Gameweek 18 rolls on this evening as Liverpool welcome Stoke to Anfield in a 5.15pm kick-off.

Owned by over 21% of Fantasy Premier League managers, Sadio Mane’s home form suggests he’s the man most likely to wreak havoc against the Potters – the Senegal international has scored or assisted in six of seven Anfield appearances since arriving from Southampton over the summer.

Divock Origi, with goals in all but one of the last five Gameweeks, retains his starting berth, with Jurgen Klopp set to unleash Daniel Sturridge from the bench once again.

Roberto Firmino also keeps his place as he attempts to end a run of six straight blanks.

For the Potters, Joe Allen is the form player – he’s bagged a goal and assist in the last three Gameweeks as he prepares to face his former club for the first time since moving to the bet365.

Between the posts, Lee Grant has produced at least one save point in each of the last four and should be kept busy again as the hosts look for the win that would see them leapfrog Man City into second.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Going for the Ibra, Costa, Aguero power front line and fairly certain about it but I'm open to suggestions.

    Transfers this gameweek: Costa for Kane (Know he has Watford but a potential price drop makes a Coutinho transfer even more difficult) and Lallana for Eriksen before he price rises. -4 (May do Ake in for Pieters to prepare for a potential Coutinho transfer (0.1m off atm).

    Transfers next gameweek: Aguero in for Defoe, Phillips in for Hazard -4 (have a point 6.2 budget).

    What do you think guys and girls? Need to pull the trigger asap if so.

      I'm thinking of doing something similar.

      Aguero will do more than Hazard

        2. le flem
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          negredo or rondon are good at that bracket

      3. NATSTER
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Do you think he is going to lose the starting spot ?

        1. le flem
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          if coutinho back it's likely

        2. Pino
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          No. That both Lallana and Origi are taken off means that they are rested for the City game.
