A Gameweek under lights has been thrown into mild turmoil by key injuries and breaking transfer speculation. It remains to be seen if Fantasy managers can still emerge from such a scenario with big scores.

Tuesday eases us in with three of the ten fixtures, with the John Smith’s Stadium undoubtedly the main focus.

That’s the venue for Huddersfield Town’s clash with a Liverpool side awash with key Fantasy assets, including the top scoring and top owned pick, Mohamed Salah.

The Egyptian heads into this clash with an incredible record of a goal or an assist in 13 of his last 15 appearances and, having blanked in the 1-0 defeat to Swansea last time out, he is understandably backed to deliver.

Roberto Firmino’s record is also strong. The Brazilian has produced double-digits in three of his last five away days, while he scored against the Terriers at Anfield back in Gameweek 10.

Both start, though Jurgen Klopp’s teamsheet springs one major surprise, with Virgil van Dijk – brought in by 41,000 ahead of tonight’s deadline – left on the bench, presumably rested for the weekend visit of Spurs.

His height could be missed in the Liverpool backline given that the Terriers have chosen to opt for both Laurent Depoitre and Steve Mounie as a pair in attack. David Wagner also bids to mimic Swansea’s stubborn performance against the Reds by deploying a back five.

Elsewhere tonight, it’s Arsenal’s turn to try and break down the Swans’ rearguard with Arsene Wenger choosing to leave new signing Henrikh Mkhitaryan on the bench at the Liberty Stadium.

Meanwhile, an injury-ravaged West Ham host Crystal Palace at the London Stadium, with a number of key Fantasy assets on the sidelines.

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

    CMONN SALAH I don't want to see Aguero hatrick tomorrow without points from you

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      He'll get a couple of points.

      1. Sánchez
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Haha

  2. Dannyb
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    I'm gonna have to do Son and Arnie to Sanchez and fodder tonight or I won't afford it. Too risky or just go for it?

    1. Ahtikullervo
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Go!

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Of course it's risky.

      Dont do it tonight

    4. Assisting the assister
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Quite a fun risk though

    5. Dannyb
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      But if I don't do it tonight I can't do it?

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Well you better decide if you want to take the risk then

      What do you think ?

    7. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Why did you keep Arnie when he was injured?

    8. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      No it's too risky
      Sanchez does his hammy tomorrow and you will regret it

    9. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      I'm just going to sit back & observe Sanchez before making any moves. If he braces or hattricks then it's time to get him in

    10. Dannyb
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      I kept Arnie coz I have bench cover and I knew it was gonna be hit galore so I tried to avoid it.

  3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Bold move from Mark to ignore Kun & get Haz in captain for a hit...

  4. Kermit Special

    After thousands of your votes, I have finally created the most boring FPL team. Have a look to see if you have any of these players on your team!

    How bad is Mane. I reckon he's completed one pass all game.

    2. evilfish

      He has huge calf muscles though.

  8. Chirsbom

    The VAR in the Liverpool - West Brom match in the weekend, is that being rolled out into PL matches as well this year, or let the Russians take the brunt at WC first..?

    I am at two heads about it. Yes it will make it more fair, but stoppage will dispute the flow and situations with a lack of fairness adds flavor and stories to the game.
