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.

  3. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Why am I captaining players like Abraham over De Bruyne and Mane? Need to stop with these awful captain picks. Going premium from now on

    1. Mo Salah No Mane
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      You'll change your mind again 🙂

  4. nerd_is_the_werd
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Need a massive 26 points from Salah and Maddison to stay in the cup.

    1. Mo Salah No Mane
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Ouch.
      Heres to a 5 4 Liverpool win for you

  5. JustPark
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Moura to Martial for free?

    1. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      yes

    2. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Sure

    3. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Sounds good

    4. Mo Salah No Mane
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Got a little feeling moura hauls the next gw :/

  6. Lone Wolf FPL
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Henderson, McGovern
    TAA, Aurier, Lundstram, Kelly, Targett
    Mane, Alli, KDB, Maddison, Grealish
    Vardy, Abraham, Greenwood

    2FT, 2.4 ITB

    A) Abraham, Henderson > Rashford, Ryan/Ramsdale (who)
    B) Alli, Greenwood > Martial, Ings
    C) something else

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I think A with Ramsdale

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Hendo has difficult fixtures, but I doubt whether he is worth transferring out. He should get save points and it is this kind of fixtures, where gk:s unexpectedly haul.

      1. Lone Wolf FPL
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        in next 5 games he has Liv, Ars and twice City...think it is worh selling esp when I have Lundstram. Double up was meh.

    3. jtreble
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Maybe just Henderson our?

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

        ... out.

  7. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    On WC, would you rather have :
    A)Maddison in a 3-5-2
    B)TAA in a 4-4-2

    1. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      A but close

    2. dangdunc
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Madders

  8. Pompel
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Is Rashford a WC trap?

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Why?

      1. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Every time I think ManU has turned a corner, they're back to playing crap in "easier" matches

        1. Soto Ayam
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          They've been u reliable assets for me. I wouldn't select any of them. Maybe pogba if he hits form, maybe.

          1. Soto Ayam
            • 6 Years
            6 years, 4 months ago

            Unreliable

    2. HonestBlatter
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Leads the xG for season. Not a trap but also not reliable but season keeper

  9. Jonny HOW SON?
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Rashford or Martial on a WC?

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Thinking Rash. Pens. Having a better season. Less injury prone

    2. Butcher
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Rashford. Can't ever trust Martial.

    3. Mo Salah No Mane
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I have both might keep both on my wc for now

  10. dangdunc
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    pukki to DCL? Or Ings?

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Ings but also consider Maupay

  11. Somar
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    COME ON MANE!!!! My captain!

  12. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    If you buy Martial you wont get his points for today game, you get it ?

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Thanks for clarifying that.

    3. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Pity there isn't a captain hindsight chip!

    4. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      What about Rashford? 😀

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

      Wait... what?! 😡

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        We have been cheated 🙁

    6. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years

  14. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Best move?

    A. Rich >> Martial
    B. Tammy >> Rashford
    C. Both got -4

    Pope
    TAA • Soy • Aurier
    Mané • Richarlison • KDB • Alli • Grealish

    1. Butcher
      • 12 Years

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I need my TAA+Salah to beat his 4+Mane+Jimenez

  19. Goonsquad245

    Mid to long term moves, 7th and 8th attackers

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

    Next GW will be rotation nightmare.

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

    Abraham to Maupay ?

    1. DALEDOBACK
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn't. Am looking at replacement as well thou

    2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn't, only if it enable some other big upgrade,,

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

        Yes that would be the idea . Cheers

  25. DALEDOBACK
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Still have wildcard, gotta be played before next deadline is that right?

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Correct

      1. DALEDOBACK
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Gracias

  26. funny money
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Is Calvert Lewin worth a punt?

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

    Ever since Gomez has been starting at CB, Liverpool have had a spike in clean sheets.

    Small sample, but it might be sign of an upturn, and hence TAA becoming good value again.

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

      0-0 would be a good result tonight

  28. Cookie Kid
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Is there anywhere to check Vardy EO?

    I miss FPL statistics

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

      105% in Top 10k.

      1. Cookie Kid
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Ok thanks! Where do you get this info from this season?
