The last of five Gameweek 31 fixtures takes place on Merseyside this afternoon.

Chelsea are the visitors to Goodison Park, where Everton have only won one of their last eight league fixtures.

Gonzalo Higuain is fit to lead the line for Chelsea, having missed the win over Dynamo Kyiv on Thursday due to illness.

Higuain lines up in a front three alongside Pedro and Eden Hazard, who is the third-most-popular Gameweek 31 captaincy choice among “active” Fantasy assets.

Marcos Alonso returns at left-back at the expense of Emerson Palmieri, while Ross Barkley starts in place of Mateo Kovacic in midfield.

Seamus Coleman returns to the Everton side as Jonjoe Kenny drops out of the match-day squad.

Yerry Mina makes his first Premier League start of 2019 in place of the ineligible Kurt Zouma, while Jordan Pickford keeps his place between the sticks.

The Toffees are otherwise unchanged, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin leading the line ahead of an attacking midfield three of Richarlison, Bernard and Gylfi Sigurdsson.

Everton XI (4-2-3-1): Pickford, Coleman, Keane, Mina, Digne, Gueye, Gomes, Richarlison, Sigurdsson, Bernard, Calvert-Lewin.

Chelsea XI (4-3-3): Arrizabalaga, Azpilicueta, Rüdiger, David Luiz, Alonso, Kanté, Jorginho, Barkley, Pedro, Higuaín, Hazard.

      Unreasonable. He's been very consistent of late.

    How many FPL seasons has Salah ruined??? He’s absolutely destroyed me.

    So many failed captains and blanks now! And the times I’ve sold and not owned he’s hauled massively!!! Week I sold he got 21, then 12, 12, 12, 11, 15 over the next 7 before I re-owned again 😆

    Would need a HUGE FH32 to save my season now.

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Being a bit dramatic are you not. I sold him as well at same time as you and doing ok

      1. Tempestic
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I did the same, it was very annoying. That same time I went triple city and they ended up losing 3/4 games and getting no points. Went mane over salah this week tho so not too mad 🙂

    2. Bubz
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah he ruined mine

    3. Klein

    4. PÍE
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      He ruined my season last year, as I never had him and ended up with my worse ever finish.
      Stuck with not having him this season, and it's been more up and down.

    Higuaín Hazard Luiz to save my week and keep me in LMS ( on 25 points -8 so 17 for now )

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years

      Same here

      Could easily be safe.

    Well fully expecting an equally trolling performance from Hazard now.....game is full of them theses days.

    1. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      This... spewing... 🙁

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        So many useless twerps....

  10. tucaoneo
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    I have two Chelsea defenders. Expect Richarlison goal.

  11. Stoic
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    -11 bps for Salah...

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      That must be a record-breaking performance for a player not sent off or missing a penalty. I'm glad to have captained for such a momentous occasion.

    2. Uppercut Panda - A legend i…
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      wow. that is really bad

  12. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    So many TCs wasted on Sane and Salah so far.

    When will you waste yours?

    1. tucaoneo
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Sir Harold

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Probably on Glenn Murray or something stupid.

      Glad to have not wasted it or the Free Hit this weekend.

    3. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Diop GW39

    4. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      36/38

    5. Chirsbom
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Probably Kane if DGW35. Last time I gave him that oppertunity he scored 4 😉

    6. Tempestic
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Everyone said I wasted it when I got 8 (tripled to 24) points off salah when he played Fulham (H), turns out it wasn’t too bad after all, so far anyway.

    7. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      At least those of us with TC left can relax in wasting it given it can’t go worse than Sane and Salah

    8. PÍE
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Don't know yet, wish there was another DGW so I could use it easily in one of those, but as it is, looks like a SGW will be the choice.

  13. WVA
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    If Hazard outscores Salah then that's 29 times from 31 gameweeks my VC has outscored my C, only correct choices were Aguero hattie week 2 and Salah on one occasion, actually unbelievable I'm still at 50k!

    1. PÍE
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      That's crazy.

    2. Alexis Nonsense
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I TC Salah this week... good bye 50k

  15. Bob B
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Thoughts on FH32 team?

    Kepa
    Boly Laporte Luiz
    Hazard Pogba Sterling
    Aguero Kane Rashford

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      No Man U D?

    2. Chirsbom
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Kane? Against Liverpool. I am a Spurs fan and like your optimisme, but for a DGW I would only pick players that played twice.

  16. sminkypinky
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Many Haz captainers here?

    1. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      o/ Aye!

  17. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Just realised Milner coming on cost me at least 30 points.

    Assuming Salah TC scored that pen, and Milner not being on the pitch meant he didn’t set up Fulham’s goal.

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Lots of if’s there!

    2. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      He was probably going to miss it so Milner saved you points.

    3. FPL.team
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Penalty wouldn't have happened if Fulham hadn't equalised. That's not how it works...

    4. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Probably would’ve missed it.

  18. LǝgleSs e|even

    Triple-H prediction. Hazard Haul or Hattie, or Higu Hazard and Hudson-Odoi to bag goal/asists today

  19. FPL Scoop

    Shame it doesnt look like Aguero will drop in price further 🙁 May as well get him in for Vardy now?

  20. COYR
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Really wish I hadn't checked the comments on here about Mane and switched the armband to Salah! Costly decision

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Thanks for telling us 🙂

    2. George Sillett

      Yawn.

    3. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Many the same

    4. Unliklinho

      Really wish you hadn't commented on here about comments on here based on speculation in the Metro...

    Now we know why Klopp risked Mane, beacasue he knew that Salah is useless twerp.

    1. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      The fact that Milner took the peno explains how much confidence he has on Salah in his current form

      1. FPL.team
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Makes no sense. Milner is always the pen taker.

      2. MrZ
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Tbf milner is their designated penalty taker

      3. luckyflames1897
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Twat...Milner is the designated penalty taker

    2. luckyflames1897
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      You Twat …Milner is the penalty taker

  23. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Do we think Doherty will start both upcoming DGW games? Probably not? Swap out on FHC to a cheaper option, perhaps...?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Shocked if he starts the United game.

    2. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Probably not.

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Kept under cotton wool for the FA Cup tie? That's what I'm thinking...

        1. Gregor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah, good chance of being rotated I would think.

    3. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Doubt it

    4. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Unlikely- no point in risking so I would change on FH

      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      and possibly costing me a lot. 3 below me captained Mane and I don't even have him. Salah cap ofcourse. Well done to you pal. Liverpool fan so the win the more important thing.
