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.

    1. L S P
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

  23. Duffy Dunk
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Even if I don't own Coutinho, I feel for those who do.
    I'd be pissed if he got injured after just 12', carrying so much hope for a good fpl score

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

      I think 12 inches would cause an injury to most

      Coutinho, Walker and Afobe have screwed me over this GW.

      All 3 have already gone on my WC.

    Current team
    Heaton Randolph
    Valencia Alonso Davies Pieters Olsson
    Hazard Alli King Coutinho Zaha
    Kane Gabbi Lukaku

    Is this a good trade for this week?
    Lukaku > Jesus, Coutinho > Sanchez, Zaha > Matic -8, 0.1 ITB

    Then next week to do possibly..
    Randolph > Caballero, Pieters > Yoshida, Olsson > Stephens, -8 0.1 ITB (Also use bench boost for this week)
