All major players present and correct for Double Gameweek Triple Captaincy

All the major players are present and correct for the first big Triple Captaincy event of the 2019/20 season.

The Liverpool team sheet for their Double Gameweek 24 trip to Wolves has come with no unpleasant surprises.

Sadio Mané (£12.5m), Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) and Mohamed Salah (£12.4m) all keep their places in the front-three while the back-four remains unchanged from the side that beat Manchester United last time out.

That means, as usual, that Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.6m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) are the full-backs either side of Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) and Joe Gomez (£5.2m).

Tonight’s match is set to be a big one in the course of the Fantasy Premier League season with so many Triple Captain chips in play.

39.3% of the top 10k Fantasy managers deployed the enhanced armband for Double Gameweek 24, with Salah and Mané largely the ones trusted with it.

Meanwhile, there are a number of different combinations when it comes to the most popular Liverpool triple-up, so it will be interesting to see which one proves the highest-scoring, although we still have next week’s trip to West Ham to look forward to.

Meanwhile, Wolves have also named a relatively straight forward line-up with Raúl Jiménez (£7.5m) and Adama Traoré (£5.7m) both in the front-three.

The biggest team news from Nuno Espirito Santo’s perspective sees previously injured Diogo Jota (£6.1m) and Willy Boly (£4.7m) back on the bench.

Their return should mean good things for Wolves’ prospects in the coming weeks.

Wolves XI: Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Dendoncker; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; Neto, Jiménez, Traoré.

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

      I'm glad my ML is H2H because that's all I have going for me now...I will take the loss in the chin this week with my opponent playing Salah TC

      These injuries have been worse than the buses for me the past month. Ruining my rank.

      Can't believe my luck..went for Firmino over Mane. Still on 21 points tho.

    • ClothedinSun
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I don't even own Mane and I feel sad about seeing that. Re-living those Vardy feelings I had the other night :'(

    • BEEZUS

      That’s really unlucky man. Genuinely feel for Mane TC. Sane all over again.

      I was so so close to doing it, hopefully he’s back for WHU

    • @ocprodigy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Just horrible knowing I spent weeks planning whether to bring in Mane or Salah. Damn.

    • Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Good news for Mané owners is a rest before West Ham!

    • Valar(Keith)
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Kane, Sane and then Mane TC last 3 seasons.. Can't make this up lol

        Add Andy Carroll at the start too

    • Jindaljain
      • 9 Years

      I want Salah red card

      1. TAT

      This is the season when every obvious decision goes wrong.

      1. TAT
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Indeed. Had TC on TAA until minutes before the deadline, then chickened out. I never seem to trust the gut feeling in FPL…

    • No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      With hindsight would have been better if mane wasn't in squad

    • Vlad Tepes
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Such a wierd GW, average will probably be really low even though it is DGW and TC used.
      Feel sorry for Mane owners but he walked off so It may not be anything serious, might be back for West Ham?

    • Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      First time watching Minamino play, should be interesting.

    • Fudgy
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Sorry all mane owners, this is a game that's purely luck

      1. UpAndAway
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Luck plays a huge role in fantasy. Impossible to judge how much exactly.

      2. Yank Revolution
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Not purely, but a large percentage.

    • Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Just goes to show, dont put too much thought into fpl, some things you just cant plan for.

    • Sonic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I feel so sorry for all the Mané owners. Especially those that slapped the TC on him. This game can be so cruel at times.

      Might have a chance of playing next game?

    • NUFCAndrew

      TC’ed Mo, own Mane. Not sure how to feel

      I've had some bad luck lately but wow unlucky Mane TC unbelievable bad luck

    • FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I broke him... brought him in and captained. Last time I brought someone in and captained immediately was Son for his red. I’ve messed up the TC yet again. So deflating.

        How bad did you break him? Weeks or just days?
