Shaqiri back in the Liverpool attack as Klopp continues with a 4-2-3-1

The final match of Gameweek 14 is the third local derby of the day, with Everton making the short trip across Stanley Park to face Liverpool.

The Reds are unbeaten in the Premier League this season and have only conceded one goal in six top-flight matches at Anfield.

Marco Silva’s side have only lost one of their last seven Premier League fixtures, meanwhile, keeping four clean sheets along the way.

There were no major shocks upon the release of the teamsheets, with Everton indeed unchanged from the side that beat Cardiff City 1-0 in Gameweek 13.

Richarlison (£7.0m) leads the line for Everton again, with Yerry Mina (£5.4m) continuing at centre-back.

Xherdan Shaqiri (£7.0m), Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.2m) and Fabinho (£5.5m) all return to Jurgen Klopp’s starting XI after missing out in midweek, with the Reds looking like they will again line up in a 4-2-3-1.

This formation will presumably see Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) leading the line, with Roberto Firmino (£9.2m) dropping into “the hole” and Shaqiri playing out wide on the right.

Andrew Robertson (£6.5m) and Virgil van Dijk (£6.0m) also start for the third time in a week, while Joe Gomez (£5.1m) moves over to centre-back at the expense of Dejan Lovren (£4.9m).

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Shaqiri, Mane, Salah, Firmino.

Everton XI: Pickford, Coleman, Mina, Keane, Digne, Gomes, Gueye, Walcott, Sigurdsson, Bernard, Richarlison.

        Not so sure about that. Sarri mentioned that he could not play that many games in a week and he just came back from injury and played 90 min.

              Aright. Think Haz will be rested against Wolves given Sarri's quotes, and the fact that he played 90 today and they face MCI in the weekend.

            Is Lacazette a good option for gw 16 or do we think there's too much uncertainty on game time?

              A little but mostly a good option. Auba better

            Struggling to understand the assist rules after this GW. Was Pickford awarded a save that led to the Origi goal? I wouldn't dispute the question of it being a shot but the Pickford touch changed the direction so it can't be a simple question of it being a rebound.

            Yesterday it seemed the ambiguity was whether there was a shot - despite a save being awarded.

            These are 6 point swings which won't be trivial in HTH leagues. It would be good to understand how the rules are being interpreted by FPL

              It’s just the same as saving it onto the post the scoring the rebound. Still an assist

            RMWCD? DEF is light, but the best way I can get Sterling, Kane, and Auba in the same team

            Fab - Stek
            Robbo - Keane - Doherty - Wan Bissaka - Schindler
            Sterling - Mane - Felipe Anderson - Fraser - Jorginho
            Kane - Auba - Success
