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.

    Liverpool look like their only plan is balls over the top for Salah.

    1. Rainer

      Final ball has gone to pot this season.

      Norwich are top of the Championship now, but long way to go.

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        It's changed about 5 times last month. Any one of the top 6 could win it.

        1. Fred54
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          UTV!

    Is switching Robertson to Alexander-Arnold a sensible way to free up funds, probably to do Aguero to Kane? I have Sterling (and Laporte) so not that worried about losing Kun. Thoughts appreciated. Thanks

    1. Jules Rimet
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Could be a smart move. Do you have WC? You might want Robo back later?

    2. MAVER!CK
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Yes it is, coz I did it last week and for the exact same kun>kane switch...TAA might miss an odd game but I have decent bench in place for that.

    1. Pengen
      • 11 Years

  8. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago
