The first of two Saturday fixtures gets underway at 12.30 as West Bromwich Albion welcome Liverpool to the Hawthorns.

Today’s big teamsheet news sees Roberto Firmino drop out of the visitors’ starting line-up, although Jurgen Klopp keeps faith in Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane elsewhere in the front three.

With his Golden Boot tussle against Harry Kane going right to the wire, Salah goes in search of a fifteenth double-figure haul of the season today.

The Baggies’ backline, meanwhile, have managed just a single shutout in their last 11 attempts.

Mane also boasts fine form for today’s early kick-off, with four goals and three assists in the Reds’ previous seven league outings.

The Merseysiders arrive on the back of a series of resilient showings, conceding just five times in 12 matches across all competitions.

Jay Rodriguez looks the man most likely to breach the visitors’ defence, having scored in three of the last four Gameweeks – including last Sunday’s winner at Old Trafford.

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

    When I asked ‘captain Salah or Jesus’, everyone on hear said Salah.

      Milner +BPS

      1. Sánchez
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Ideal scenario. Milner gets subbed off at 65 mins at 1-0.
        Game ends 1-1

        1. Fred54
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          Plot twist, Milner gets a RC that leads to the pen that makes it 1-1.

      Salah -bps

      1. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Salah's not really about the BAPS though....

    14. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Salah thinking he's Alonso...

      1. TallestJohn
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Salah wouldn't drink and drive

    15. Ruinenlust
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Terrible effort

    16. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Milner really involved

    17. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Never scoring with a curler from that distance... wasted free kick.

      1. dark91
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Unless you are Messi

    18. Ruinenlust
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Alonso would have scored that

    19. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Mini league leader has captained Jesus. I REALLY need points from Salah today.....so it'll be typical if he blanks.

      1. Ghost Gooner
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        In the same situation. At least he has Firm and one player short with a -8 hit

    20. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Ox not happy with Salah.

    21. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Come on Salah, Assist VVD

      1. Sánchez
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Booo

    22. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Another Salah free kick? He needs as many goes as possible if he is going to get that goalscoring record.....

      1. Collie01
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        It's very far out

    23. BIGREDDOG
      • 8 Years

      Almost 1/3 through... Breathe

      1. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Salah(c) blank not really an issue. For me want a Milner CS!

      2. Optimus.
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        99% of Salah's goals have come in the 2nd half

    24. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Give me a milner goal with Ings assist and I'll die happy

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Such filthy points won’t make you happy Sánchez, you’ll feel dirty and find it hard to sleep tonight.

        1. Sánchez
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          I can live with the guilt Jafooli
          I'm willing Salah to get subbed too

          1. Jafooli
            • 14 Years

          • 14 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          just there were a lot of ings inquiries, only to be told no!

    27. Dele
      • 9 Years

      No Liverpool coverage, all rivals with Salah captain. This is brutal.

      Will only end in tears.

      1. Dave Bauer
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Couldn’t have been much better so far to be fair.

        1. Dave Bauer
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          But probably will end in tears, you’re quite right!

    28. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      I changed Karius & Ozil to Butland and Mane after seeing the AnfieldExpress team leak. Benched Pérez and played Arnie also. All of these decisions I feel bad about now. Hope I’m wrong.

      1. #FPLBhuna
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        I benched Kenedy played arnie

        Hopefully we fine lol

        • 9 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Top 10k EO is 150% so don't really care. For me it is about Zaha, Laca, Arnautovic etc. i.e. those differential picks.

    30. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Read somewhere that 99% of Salah’s goals come in the second half.

    33. diesel001
      • 9 Years

      WBA attacking corners always make me nervous when I have a defender in the opposition team. Pulis may be gone, but they still love those set pieces.

    34. Rainer

      WBA goal coming.
