All the key Fantasy Premier League assets from Liverpool’s ranks have been handed starts for their Friday night visit to Southampton.

Mohamed Salah (£13.2m), Sadio Mané (£10.1m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) are the front three as expected, with the first two of those backed by around 23% of voters in the latest captain poll.

Andrew Robertson (£6.8m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.5m) flank the defence, with Virgil van Dijk (£6.6m) starting alongside Joel Matip (£4.9m).

After a lengthy lay-off Joe Gomez (£4.8m) has travelled with the squad but is not quite ready for the bench.

The only changes to Liverpool’s side that beat Spurs at the weekend are in central midfield, far away from Fantasy concerns.

Naby Keita (£7.1m) and Fabinho (£5.5m) return to the midfield with Jordan Henderson (£5.3m) and James Milner (£5.6m) named on the bench.

Danny Ings (£5.4m) misses out for Southampton as he is ineligible to face his parent club which means a start for Shane Long (£4.6m).

Jannik Vestergaard (£4.6m) is back in the side to form part of a three-man back-line with Maya Yoshida (£4.1m) and Jan Bednarek (£4.0m).

Southampton XI: Gunn, Valery, Bednarek, Yoshida, Vestergaard, Bertrand, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Hojbjerg, Redmond, Long.

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

    Mane is my differential in this one. Hope Liverpool lose though.

    Salah on penalties - how exciting! I can now look forward to a negative score from him before I sell him for good...

    1. Sim Simma

      Hatty confirmed

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      This. His form suggests he will hit a weak penalty

      1. Pierce34
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        He might try to smash it down the middle and balloon it over the bar.

    Vardy(c), rival brought in and (c)Hazard. Going to be tight!

  5. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    Salah (c) a complete differential in my ML. Looks like I’m the only one with blind faith in my ML’s. I’m sure I’ll regret it by Monday.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      You'll regret it........

      Same here, out of my main cash ML top 10 - only two with him and only me (c) - disaster looms !

    Top 10k starting at -1.86.

    Early greens for those who didn't take a hit, not too bad for those who took a -2.

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Did I take a -2 or -4 to get Kepa (benched Boruc)?

      1. Rainer

    Leno worth a shot for the DGW?

    Least likely out of the Arsenal defence to be rotated?

  10. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Salah brace incoming. I can smell it! I'm only 3 miles away 🙂

    1. Random Name
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      what does it smell like

  11. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years

    Why hasn't Holebas been playing? Out of favour?

    1. Random Name
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      He's so old he's seen Liverpool win the league

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Masina a very capable replacement and Gracia enjoys a bit of rotation.

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Ok thanks. So Kiko or Janmaat should also be avoided then?

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 11 months ago

          I think its too messy there too, yeah. Foster or Cathcart for me.

    3. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Played last game

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Playing regularly, I mean.

        Didn't play in 4 of the last 6 games.

        1. hornetjb
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 11 months ago

          Injured / suspended after 10 yellows. He is 100% first choice and on many corners & free kicks. Masina offers zero going forward. Holebas could be gold - he’s in my first draft wc team.

          1. Piggs Boson
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 11 months ago

            Interesting, thanks.

    4. shirtless

      Foster/Ryan with Valery for Soton cover at shirt buttons money

    5. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Bit of rotation and picked up a ban didn’t he. Loves a card, most in the league this season, possibly.....

    Mo looks good in purple - bit like Prince. Worried non-owner.

  18. Ron_Swanson
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Peltier looks like he is a starter these days - is that correct? Do you think he will play both next week? Thanks

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      depends on Bamba I think

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      I think he is, because basically everyone else is injured.

  19. For Fuchs Sake
    • 16 Years

    Anyone unleashed their WC yet?

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Yep, just pressed it to avoid 1 or 2 drops

    2. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Matip involved ?

    3. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Made two transfers to activate it

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      I've made 17 transfers but haven't pressed the button yet so my transfers count towards price changes.

    2. Random Name

      6 years, 11 months ago

      You've deduced that within 8 minutes - nice.

  22. Viper
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Will the likes of Jimenez, Aguero, Sterling etc. actually drop tonight or will it be reversed closer to price changes?.
