After Mohamed Salah’s late winner for Liverpool at Selhurst Park, a further six matches get underway at 3pm as the Gameweek 32 action ramps up.

Plenty of attention will be focused on Romelu Lukaku as Man United welcome Swansea to Old Trafford.

The top transfer target for Gameweek 32 and second most popular captain (13.4%), the Red Devils’ frontman has produced eight goals and two assist in his last 11 club outings across all competitions.

At the back, Chris Smalling – the most bought defender over the break – retains his place, with Victor Lindelof surprisingly partnering him at centre-half as Eric Bailly warms the bench.

A popular pair for our Wildcards, Brighton’s Pascal Gross and Leicester wide man Riyad Mahrez go head-to-head at the Amex Stadium.

Gross has averaged 6.2 points per home match for the Seagulls, while the Algerian has returned a goal or assist in 11 of his last 14 league starts.

Elsewhere, Charlie Austin makes a welcome return for Southampton’s trip to West Ham.

With a pair of expected Double Gameweeks to follow, many will be keen to scout the Saints’ striker – despite failing to feature since Gameweek 19, he remains their top scorer, with six efforts to his name.

Three goals from Marko Arnautovic over the international break underlines his goal threat ahead of this proverbial six-pointer.

Meanwhile, Newcastle’s Kenedy has another chance to stake a claim as our budget midfielder of choice ahead of an expected Double Gameweek to follow.

The on-loan wide man bagged 16 points in his previous home outing and entertains Huddersfield’s travel-sick defence at St James’ Park.

        I wasn't going to use the word again because I'd get comments saying "lol Gross hasn't scored yet"
