Key FPL assets all start as Burnley face Liverpool

The eighth and final Premier League match of a busy Saturday kicks off at 17:30 BST, with Liverpool the visitors to Turf Moor.

The team news is very straightforward as there is just one change to the starting XIs in all: Aaron Lennon (£4.9m) replacing the injured Johann Berg Gudmundsson (£6.0m) on the right flank for Burnley.

Jurgen Klopp names the same 11 players who lined up for the victory over Arsenal last Saturday.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) is the second-most-captained player of Gameweek 4, having been handed the armband by over one million FPL managers.

Liverpool put seven goals past the Clarets in their two meetings last season, with Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) scoring three of them.

The Reds are yet to keep a clean sheet this season, while Sean Dyche’s side recorded a shut-out in their only previous home league game this season: against Southampton in Gameweek 1.

Ashley Barnes (£6.7m) has scored in each of his three league appearances this season and was bought by over 250,000 Fantasy bosses in the build-up to Gameweek 4.

Liverpool’s Andrew Robertson (£6.9m) was the second-most-sold defender of this current Gameweek, having been offloaded by over 190,000 FPL managers.

Burnley XI: Pope; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Pieters, Lennon, Cork, Westwood, McNeil, Barnes, Wood.

Liverpool XI: Adrían; Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Matip, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Salah, Mané, Firmino.

        uber

      • Sterling Malory
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Haha! He was very average.

        Very poor defending from the Blades. Stevens the standout player.

    2. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Hold Pope

    3. For Fuchs Sake
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Would you WC this team over the International Break? King and Perez top of my hit list.

      Heaton
      van Dijk Wan-Bissaka Digne
      Pérez Sterling (C) Salah (VC) De Bruyne Greenwood
      Pukki King

      Pope Trossard Lundstram Montoya

      1. Ghost Gooner
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I would (used mine in gw2). Go 1 gk as well

    4. juho
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Trossard looks legit

      I like how Brighton plays, hope to see them do well

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        he does but the lack of returns is starting to grate, was really hoping he would nab one today

      2. Greasy Grealish Gang
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        By far Brighton's most dangerous asset. Ofcourse, he'll have to return. 1 goal and 1 assist ruled out by offside/VAR and down to 10 men against Southampton. Worth holding onto imo.

    5. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      That Villa 'non' goal...

      WOW!

      1. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Var is an absolute joke

      2. Greasy Grealish Gang
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Feel so bad for them. For myself as well. I have Grealish who gets a yellow instead of an assist..

    6. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I’d be very happy with a 0 - 0 draw here

      Not happening

      1. Artemis Titans
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Would be epic

    7. Demí
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      So who after today is going to drop like a stone over the international break?

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Rashford and AWB

        1. Demí
          • 13 Years

          Yep, and i own both

          1. Wild Rover
            • 13 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            I’m selling both tonight, sod the injury risk

            1. Hits from the Bong
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Who for?

      2. Stimps
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Perez

        1. Demí

      3. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        AWB, Trashy

      4. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Perez, awb, spurs assets if they blank tomorrow

      5. MTPockets
          4 years, 7 months ago

          All United except James/McTominay

        • TheSteel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          King

      6. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Haller stonewall pen
        Tielemans should have got rc
        Villa goal disallowd

        Horrible refereeing

        1. Greasy Grealish Gang
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          FPL aside, it's a shame.

        2. Ghost Gooner
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Grealish dived. Look at the replay from behind. He kicks out his leg towards the def and then is falling even before Cahill puts his leg out

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

        How was King today?

        1. Rainer
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Like always.

          1. Brosstan
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Invisible except for a few dumb dribble attempts into 2-3 opposition players leading to disposessions?

        2. Drexl Spivey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Set the place alight.

      8. Nice to Finally Michu
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Do Salah owner but non captainers want him to do well?

        1. MTPockets
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Just better than Mane/Firmino

        2. Rolls-Royce
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          0-1 Pool with VVD G & Salah A would be nice.

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

          Less annoyed with Sterling captaincy fail than I am with Maddison getting nowt from 3 goals. Worth holding for the bad fixtures?

          1. ZeBestee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Hold. United next.

          2. Hits from the Bong
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Maddison is not a good fpl player.

            1. Hits from the Bong
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Well he might be, but he’s not a good fpl pick

          3. Ghost Gooner
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            No.

        6. ZeBestee
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Robbo, your turn to return your customary 11 points is now.

          1. Yoshioka
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Hope you're right. Feels like we're the last two Robbo owners left in the game.

            1. have you seen cyan
              • 4 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              you two should mate then

          2. ZeBestee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Many still have him.

        7. Botman and Robben
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Get on working to win the PL and CL title LFC!

        8. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          So how many minutes will we have to wait before Liverpool lose their clean sheet? 34 minutes is me bet

          1. Yoshioka
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            67

          2. Ghost Gooner
            • 10 Years

          Best 5.1 defender to replace AWB to allow Wickham to abrahams? Already own Zinchenko, Sony, Lundstrum and Digne.
