Fantasy managers will be heavily reliant on the exploits of their Liverpool assets after a tough start to Gameweek 3.

Mohamed Salah (£13.0m), the most captained player of the weekend, will be the key focal point while Sadio Mané (£9.8m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) should make a difference too.

Salah himself has 54 percent ownership while the other members of his front three are both backed by more than 30 percent.

There will also be hopes for another Liverpool clean sheet with Andrew Robertson (£6.0m), Virgil van Dijk (£6.0m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.0m) in 19, 18 and 16 percent of squads, respectively.

Liverpool are unchanged for a third Premier League match in succession, great news for Fantasy managers currently tripled-up on Jurgen Klopp’s extremely settled side.

Meanwhile, Pascal Groß (£6.9m) was named on the bench as Yves Bissouma (£5.0m) comes into the line-up to play just behind Glenn Murray (£6.5m)

There was one change in defence with Leon Balogun (£4.5m) coming in for Lewis Dunk (£4.5m).

LIVERPOOL XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; Milner, Wijnaldum, Keita; Mané, Firmino, Salah.

BRIGHTON XI (4-4-1-1): Ryan; Bong, Balogun, Duffy, Montoya; March, Propper, Stephens, Knockaert; Bissouma; Murray

            • 13 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

    2. The Big Fella
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Salah will get the winning goal BPS about an hour after the match so will end up with 3 and Robbo will end up with 2

      1. Licious Lizard
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Has Robbos CS bps been added?

        1. The Big Fella
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          1. Licious Lizard
            • 13 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

    TAA is the Costa in disguise

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      He isnt that good and he has to make fouls to make up for it

  21. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Robbo is so worth the 1m extra outlay over TAA

    1. Licious Lizard
      • 13 Years

  27. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Mane off
    Sturridge on

  28. Feloh
    • 9 Years

    imagine if that pool cleanie gets wiped.

  29. Dimen
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Pereira in Leicester really worth? Playing high up but listed as defender?

    1. The Big Fella
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      They don't keep enough CS for me. I may debate it though if Burnley's defence don't pick up

      1. Dimen
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah but he's basically a midfielder with the added bonus of CS points.

    2. Rusty71
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      oop defender, nice run of games coming up. I'd say he's worth considering!

  30. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Mane CS banked.

    1. ingus
      • 15 Years
