The curtain falls on Gameweek 35 with a Vicarage Road meeting between Watford and Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp’s charges arrive bidding to cement their standing in the top four, exploiting Sunday’s results which saw their major challengers drop points.

From a Fantasy perspective, Liverpool’s twin Brazilians will garner the most interest.

Both Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino head into this encounter having prospered against the Hornets in the reverse fixture. Coutinho produced a goal and an assist for 11 points, while his compatriot went fared even better, recording two assists and a goal to total 15 points – his best tally of the campaign.

Both have the backing of new owners tonight, with Coutinho the more popular, finding his way into 50,000+ squads ahead of Gameweek 35, compared with Firmino’s 23,000+. The former is also favoured for the armband, with more than 122,000 (2.7%) trusting Coutinho.

But Liverpool are likely to face some resistance from the home side. Walter Mazzarri’s Watford reached the 40 point “safety” mark with six matches to spare and have earned victories with clean sheets in three of their last five Gameweek outings.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Blind nailed considering ManU defensive injuries?

    1. YoungPretender
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Yes

    2. Ronny Hotdog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Gotta hope so!

    3. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      yes but won't go near United defence atm due to fixtures

    4. Rover
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      It's a double-edged sword. Makes Blind minutes more nailed. Makes his CS less nailed. Thinking of swapping him out this week for a hit.

  20. CFC1990

    8 years, 11 months ago

    Struggling to find a place for Sanchez:

    Hennessey, Pickford
    Alonso, Bailly, Holgate, Gibson, Yoshida
    Eriksen, King, Alli, Hazard, Davies
    Kane, Benteke, Lukaku

    3.5m itb

    1FT.

    I would like to change Benteke to Jesus but this only leaves me 2.1m itn the bank.

    It is not enough for Alli to Sanchez.

    Any suggestions?

    Many thanks
