Liverpool’s key assets are all set to face a much-rotated Arsenal side at the Emirates Stadium.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) and Sadio Mané (£12.2m) both retain their places from the draw with Burnley, each one boasting a vested interest in the Golden Boot race.

Their exploits on Wednesday evening could be pivotal to the outcome of Gameweek 36+ considering that their backing inside the top 10,000 FPL managers took a dip for the midweek round of action.

We know that many Free Hit managers overlooked the pair in favour of Chelsea and Manchester City counterparts, although those two clubs have largely struggled to completely fulfil their promise against Norwich and Bournemouth respectively.

Meanwhile, Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.7m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) start a match together for the first time since Gameweek 33+ with Neco Williams (£4.0m) back on the Liverpool bench.

Those invested in the Liverpool full-backs, or either of the centre-halves, will be pleased to see who is sitting on the Arsenal one.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.9m) has lost his place this evening, named among the substitutes for the first time since the Premier League restarted.

In the striker’s place, Mikel Arteta has named Reiss Nelson (£ and Nicolas Pépé (£8.9m) either side of Alexandre Lacazette (£9.2m) in the front-three.

Arsenal XI: Martínez; Tierney, Holding, D Luiz, Cédric; Xhaka, Torreira, Saka; Nelson, Lacazette, Pépé.

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

    Foden (c) didn't work, but I don't regret the decision making - just the outcome! Correctly chose a City player that would play 90 mins in the front three - had a big chance, just didn't work out.

    On we go...

    1. Free Hat
      • 7 Years

      Nice to hear and correctly,
      instead of season is over or **** Foden, fml

    2. Shultan

      I TC sterling!

      1. Rains of Castamere
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Ouch. If it's any consolation, you equalled my Mane TC score.

    3. Dragon Arcana
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I like the attitude

    4. _Make
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Feel the same about Willian. He made seven key passes and should have got at least one assist. The rationale wins through even if the points don't follow!

      1. Rains of Castamere
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Exactly... keep applying the same rationale and more often than not it will work out.

      2. bench boost for every gamew…
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Jesus here. Kind of happy. More important ly, burnley cs wiped out and wolves too. I have jota in for kdb. He score last week but No no-shows then of course.

  2. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    The Salah owners will be the real winners here. This is not gonna be good

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I meant to lose him for sterling in a move that involved a hit this week but missed the deadline lol

  3. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Mo Salah!
    Mo Salah!

  4. Thomas M.
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

  5. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years

    Rashford hatti tomorrow will compound the misery

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years

      Dr Rashford*

    2. Qaiss
      • 10 Years

      Delusion

    3. Athletic Dildao
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Fingers crossed. I want the full misery.

  6. FFSbet.com
    • 10 Years

    Hmm Arsenal parking bus,Salah vs Tierney,Nelson,Xhaka...this looks like good game for Firmino

  7. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Salah + Greenwood > Dilva and Auba with 2FTs next GW looking spicy

    1. FFSbet.com
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Salah(C) again more tasty

  8. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    I've got Mane (c) and his EO is 6%. My season is riding on this.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Sterling monster fail makes it a bit of a free hit.

    2. Whazza
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Looks excellent!

    3. @persecuted_by_mods
        5 years, 9 months ago

        They played 5 at the back Vs spurs and son got in again and again on that side, they've got 4 at the back today so you should be in for a good evening

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Oh my mistake they are 5 at the back

        2. FPL Pillars
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          I had Kane, what a result. Although he did blank twice before but now all is forgiven.

      • Fudgy
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Trent to Mo please

            Hear! Hear!

      • Strchld
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Dilva owner Brut had KdB and Foden C. Not happy at all.

      • _Make
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Willian captaincy didn't seem like such a bad call in hindsight!

      • Rains of Castamere
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Praying that Greenwood's ankle has swollen up like a balloon to be honest; Jimenez first sub. (The perils of a strong front 8).

      • The Mighty Hippo
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Salah (c). Let's go!

          5 years, 9 months ago

          2-0 win. Mane assisted by Trent, then Trent FK won by himself or Mane. Let’s do this

          1. Magic Zico
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Salah is the king

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Delighted I kept Salah. Would have been crapping myself right now

        5. T.Henry14
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Alonso, Azpili, Pulisic, Sterling! and Jesus(C).
          KDB bench, Greenwood or AWB in.

          This is not bad, I guess.

            • 9 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            That’ll be cool

        8. EL tridente
          • 8 Years

          Nice Ederson and Boly...

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Wasn’t that a “major” deflection on Doherty’s ball to Jimenez?

          1. Big_Andy_GAWA
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Surprised at that being given, TBH...!

            1. milanista10
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              Yeah I’m shocked to see he has an assist - I’ve seen “lesser” ones not given

          2. bench boost for every gamew…
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Shot then rebound.

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              Even if it’s not the keeper who saved it?

        10. Pinturicchio10
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Isn't this why we play? The highs, the lows, the carnage, the utter wankbaggery of it all? Have to laugh lads chill t'fook.

              5 years, 9 months ago

              Very true. Just been a few too many bad gameweeks. Roll on next season 😀

            Hope Ings hauls. Wary of having sold Rashford for him.

            Would also love an Egan CS against Vardy

                5 years, 9 months ago

                Asking for a friend, did Kane and Spurs look much better in that game for anyone that saw it?

                Newcastle usually quite good at the back at home.

                  Saka to foden a couple weeks ago, when saka assist & foden miss 2 big chances.
                  LOL at me for thinking those misses were just unlucky.

                  Out for Tarkowski I think.

                    Hmm such a boring move to make though. Hate defender transfers.

                      5 years, 9 months ago

                      True but I need to cover Pope points in final two games.

                        • 14 Years

                        True. Pope has killed me for a while too!

                5 years, 9 months ago

                28 (-4) from 5 inc Captain for the tiniest of green arrows so far.

                Captain choices really are the making of this game aren’t they!?
