Mohamed Salah (£12.7m) is back in the Liverpool starting line-up for Gameweek 31+.

The Egyptian remained an unused substitute for the 0-0 draw with Everton on Sunday following a precautionary absence in a pre-Project Restart friendly.

But it’s back to full-strength for Jurgen Klopp’s men tonight as Crystal Palace come to Anfield.

He has kept faith in Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) and Sadio Mané (£12.5m), combining them with Salah in the front-three.

As expected, Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) is back in the Liverpool defence, joined there by Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m), Joe Gomez (£5.3m) and, of course, Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.8m).

Crystal Palace have matched Liverpool’s 4-3-3 formation with one of their own, deploying Andros Townsend (£5.6m) and Wilfried Zaha (£6.7m) either side of the in-form budget striker Jordan Ayew (£5.2m).

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Robertson, Van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; Wijnaldum, J Henderson, Fabinho; Mané, Firmino, Salah.

Crystal Palace XI: Hennessey; van Aanholt, Cahill, Sakho, J Ward; McArthur, McCarthy, Kouyaté; Townsend, Zaha, Ayew.

    215 points in last 2 GWs. Not too shabby.

    1. Rains of Castamere

      209 here, fair play

      1. Villa Velour
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Good stuff

    2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…

      Nice going!

      1. Villa Velour
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers pal

    3. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      That's what unlimited transfers plus bench boost plus wildcard does, at a guess. Wish I could've joined the party. Enjoy

      212 here

    5. PrettyDick
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      226, (possibly 227/228 depending on TAAs potential BAPS) with Ings left. How many/which ones do you have left?

    6. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Sub 150 here!

  2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    TAA, Robbo and Salah (C)

    The holy trinity

  3. Railwayman
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Time for Palace to score a goal with TAA out and Salah to score his brace 😀

  4. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Mane out BPSing Salah should cause some more fume.

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

      Typical Salah, off targets too many

    2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      How does that even happen, such nonsense

    3. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Cause Salah keeps giving the ball away. If he didn't he would get more BAPS.

  5. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Not even a bap for Trent? :/

  6. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Moved armband off Salah to Son as Palace are good defensively
    🙄

    1. thomashl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Heh, well, I went for Fernandes... son cap seems like heaven rn

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      But you didn't know Guaita would be out?

    3. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Guaita

  7. Here is Cash, give McGinn
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Green arrow up to top 200. Salah one more goal please, lets go

  8. thomashl
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Son to Martial?

    Patricio
    TAA Doherty Maguire
    Salah KdB Son Bruno Saint-Max
    DCL Jimi
    (Button - Holgate Lascelles Nketiah) 0.8itb

    1. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yes as you dont have Rashford

      1. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers matey! My reasoning exactly

    2. International Richard
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Don’t know who Saint-max is but I’m considering bring in Son

      1. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Saint-Maximin. Was too lazy to write it all out

      2. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Did you see the respective games for Spurs and Utd?

  9. Ninja Škrtel
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    78 pts with Bruno captain. returns from 7 out of 8. ffs...why did I captain him...

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I hate people like this

    2. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Really annoyed I changed it from Rashford last second. Been following the masses to much this season.

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Quit complaining!

    4. Villa Velour
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Same here. Fernandes (c) and DCL only 2 not to return

    5. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Similar here but not complaining. I'd rather have a team of players scoring 6-8 points each and a failed captain pick than a team full of blanks and a good captain.

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Spot on. I captained Jimenez, very little besides that. We live and should learn.

    6. Ninja Škrtel
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      ok ok fair points from you all. apologies.

      1. WD27
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Don't apologise ffs you made a passing comment . People just get emotional because they haven't got the points they expected. Its a forum to chat about good and bad.. but if you chat about good things in here you get slated sometimes unfortunately

  10. The Wizard of Ozil
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    TAA Caption worked out well

    Going Vardy & Son over Salah & DLC not so much

    1. Dananz
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Well done! Great captain call.

  11. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years

    All eyes in you Pope. Save our fpl lives . Fpl lives matter

      Great, no one asked.

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

      Average

  13. barton fc
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Ederson (Henderson)
    TAA soyuncu bolly (lundstrum, Barsham)
    KDB Fernandes grealish traore (cantwell)
    Aubba Aguero jimenez 0ITB 1FT

    What to do with this lot?

    A) aguero > kane
    B) WC

    1. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No way to a WC. Wait for this week to finish and see if you can roll over a transfer.

      1. barton fc
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers! Would you stick with Aguero if fit?

  14. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A Palace goal would change a lot.

    1. Dannyb
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yes please

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It ain't happening.

    3. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      would love that..

    4. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Crystanbul 2.0

    5. Coys96
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Ooh yes pls

  15. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Salah to get zero BAPS?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Likely if -0

    2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Surely max bonus after this hat trick 😉

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

        Hatrick?

        1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I’m being wishful

  16. Says
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Liverpool to be having beers at every drinks break from the City game onwards?

  17. Coys96
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A) Kane & Martial
    B) Rashford & Son

    1. Says
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Moderately content penguin
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

    3. Rains of Castamere
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      This would have been B at 21:30 last night

    4. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A but everyone will say A because of the recency of Martial’s hat trick

  18. ZeBestee
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    4-0 down and not even trying?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Nothing to play for.

      1. ZeBestee
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Still though, should at least try and show intent to attack.

    2. Manani
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      it makes more sense to try when you are 1-0/2-0 down when you actually got a chance to get some points than 4-0 down

  19. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Ederson and Allison may aa well start taking deckchairs and cigars out

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      What's Ederson doing here? 😉

  20. Party time
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Come on Mané! Rifle the net once more

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      *Side netting.

      1. Party time
        6 years, 1 month ago

        😆

        Fair enough 🙂

  21. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    TAA to get winnin goal bps too so might get 2 baps.

  22. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Salah goal Mane assist pretty please!

  23. have you seen cyan
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Salah needs to lose some baps

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      He's not in the BAPS though

  24. Dananz
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Trust your gut.

    I changed my cap from TAA to Fernandes because most of the FPL "Expert" panel were doing the same.

    Pretty good at ignoring groupthink, but slipped up here.

    Trust your gut.

    1. james 101
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Next question. Will salah start the next game?

      1. PrettyDick
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Of course

    1. WD27
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      wonderful finish

  25. mrodgers91
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Possible controversial opinion, as a liverpool fan I actually want city to beat chelsea so we can win the title on the pitch next week

  26. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Mane off

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Robbo as well

    2. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      wonderful..

  27. LL Cool Oris
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Playing my wildcard now. How does this look for the run in?

    Fabianski (Martinez)
    TAA - Doherty - Digne - Soyuncu (Aurier)
    Salah - Martial - Traore (Saint-Maximin - Cantwell)
    Rashford - Jimenez - Ings
    0.6 ITB

  28. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Robbo CS banked.
    Mane subbed too.

  29. Tim Canterbury
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    If Mané Trent and Salah could all get 2 that would be the icing

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Trent with GWG & deductions will be clear.

    2. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Salah's the only one of those left playing
