Leicester and Liverpool have both named full-strength sides as the 2019 Boxing Day extravaganza comes to a close.

The King Power Stadium clash could prove a highly decisive one in this season’s title race and it’s clear each manager, Brendan Rodgers and Jurgen Klopp are taking it seriously.

Jamie Vardy (£10.1m) naturally leads Leicester’s line supported by James Maddison (£7.8m), Youri Tielemans (£6.5m), Harvey Barnes (£5.9m) and Dennis Praet (£5.3m) in midfield.

As ever, the settled back-four of Ben Chilwell (£5.8m), Çaglar Söyüncü (£5.1m), Jonny Evans (£5.2m) and Ricardo Pereira (£6.5m) all keep their places.

Liverpool’s potent front-three of Mohamed Salah (£12.2m), Sadio Mané (£12.2m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.2m) are all involved.

Meanwhile, both Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) start in defence.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel; Chilwell, Söyüncü, Evans, R Pereira; Ndidi, Praet; Maddison, Tielemans, H Barnes; Vardy.

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; Keïta, Wijnaldum, Henderson; Mané, Firmino, Salah.

    Have done a nice solid Trent out on Wildcard this week and he's only gone and got over half my entire WC points. Nice one

      why did you get him out. to fund someone else or you thought he was over priced?

      1. hogree
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Yeh funding Kane Vardy Abraham triple up, that clearly wasn't worth it looool

    This day will go down in FPL history. Along with the time Defoe got 5 goals vs Wigan, Aguero got 4 goals vs Newcastle and Aguero got a haul against Huddersfield after Jamie Jackson said he would be benched.

    Arise Sir TAA of FPL 2019.

      And at only 21 we probably have another 15 years at least to look forward to him in our sides. He will be made a saint by then. And not the south coast type either. 😉

  11. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    1. Mr.K
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I'm thinking for Firmino but I have money in the bank for it.

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        That's ideal yes. Couldn't afford this unfortunately

  12. Dele

  13. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Sold KDB- he got 20 pts, capped Son- he got -2, sold TAA- 24 pts.
    This game is s**t.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Let me know your move next week.

      1. AzzaroMax99
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Salah xD

  14. OverTinker
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Keeping TAA and Mane in the blank was the best decision. OMG

  15. janowsc
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Damn, Magnus sold TAA for Maguire 2 gameweeks ago...

    1. Superflymonk
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Yes, fpl makes even the greatest minds look silly when it comes to making the right calls.

  16. Mr.K
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Abraham -> Firmino ?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I am considering

      1. Mr.K
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        If counting the world cup games he seems to be in pretty darn great form.

      2. firstade
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        My next move. Have to free up some funds first though

  17. Tsssst
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    2 FTs, Tomori and Richarlison to TAA and Cantwell justifiable?

  18. FFSbet.com
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Vardy playing

  19. SirStevieG
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    If he scores again and gets 30 points I'm gonna get naked and run around the block

  20. Hitmonlee
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Said from day one. Trent is a set and forget for the whole season.
    So glad my rivals disagreed.

  21. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Robbo be like "im the better outfield player between me and TAA" 🙁

  22. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Probably not but would you pay that?

    1. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I argued he should be 8.0 before this season. And he was still in all my drafts.

  23. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Alonso big eruption was away to Leicester too...

  24. Railwayman
    • 13 Years

  25. faux_C
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Loving the TAA points, but it stings that I had Firmino for about 10 weeks and sold him last week.

  26. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Magnus Carlson done TAA to Maguire last week. Rip Magnus. You done well for a while.
