Double Gameweek 25 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues this Sunday lunchtime, with Burnley v Liverpool, Newcastle United v Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers kicking-off at 14:00 GMT.

The big team news comes from Turf Moor, where Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane return to Liverpool’s attack, alongside Roberto Firmino in Jurgen Klopp’s 4-3-3 formation.

That means Diogo Jota drops to the bench with new signing Luis Diaz.

Sean Dyche makes one change for Burnley, with Aaron Lennon coming in for Dwight McNeil.

At Newcastle, Eddie Howe makes two changes from Gameweek 24, with Dan Burn and Javier Manquillo in for Jamaal Lascelles and Matt Targett, who is ineligible.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa bring in Calum Chambers for the suspended Ezri Konsa.

Elsewhere, Rodrigo Bentancur makes his first start for Antonio Conte, as he replaces Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the engine room, while there are also changes at wing-back, with Matt Doherty and Ryan Sessegnon coming in for Emerson Royal and Sergio Reguilon, both of whom are substitutes.

For their opponents, Bruno Lage hands a first Premier League start to Luke Candle, with Rayan Ait-Nouri also returning to the XI for Marcal.

    HOW CAN SON BLANK IN THIS GAME???

      Meh, didn't expect him to get much against Wolves anyway. One of the worst fixtures Son can have tbf.

      Solid player to own going forwards.

      1. Shark Team
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        me too, today's performance made him more appealing in my eyes, he was into everything

    2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I don’t think I have ever seen anything quite like this.

      It will go down in folklore history

    With this Spurs attack, I think a Burnley defensive double up next week could be fruitful.

    I guess just playing this bad means less save points for Pope

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Spot on. Tark or Mee for the occasional gosl threat

  3. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Sa could have a haul here with another save or 2.

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I brought him in for the 3 games in a row that he conceded and got rid on WC this week, such is FPL

  4. My heart goes Salalalalah

    Robbo outscoring TAA again...

    Alisson (39)
    Robertson (30)
    Fabinho (29)
    Matip (27)
    van Dijk (26)

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Got both 😎

      1. MIGHTY JOE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Same 😀

  5. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Weghorst do his hammy? BBC said he landed on his leg awkwardly so not sure although BBC are trite and I'm not sure why I still use their site

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Didn't look like hammy. Either hip or knee. Hard to tell.

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Not hammy, landed awkwardly and was feeling something around the back of the knee

    3. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Left leg, hip, hammy... something went!

      Dychy should give us an update on Weggy post game.

    4. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Because their pro-government propaganda is yet to leak into the live text feed?

    5. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Cheers all, could be really bad, just as bad as hammy or fine for next week so not much help I guess!

    6. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I don’t think it was a hammy. Twisted knee would be my amateur prognosis

    7. space mercenary
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      He was popular on the wildcard. Certainly has implications.

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

    This Burnley v Liverpool game has no chill. Been heavy metal for the full 90 minutes. Great watch.

  7. fish&chips

    Sterling -> Bruno
    Cancelo bench
    Laporte bench
    Regulion bench
    Jota bench
    Salah blank
    Weghorst hammy
    King and Dennis

    One of the worst GWs in more than 15 years playing

    1. Nanoelektronicar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      That is just shaiteshow.

    2. Union_Jacks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      But apart from that?

    3. Big Mac 24
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Ouch

    4. Big Hands Barry
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Wow ouch, log off and go pub

    5. Podge
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Oof

  8. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Looks like another all be it quite fortunate clean sheet for wolves, Martinez like stuff from sa, element of luck but tons of saves

  9. -GK22-
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Will Watkins ever score again?

  10. Hiiler
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    DGW25 players might not be so bad this time as almost all template SGW players have blanked mostly as well.

  11. fplgaruda
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Salah's Kriptonite

  12. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Cannot quite believe what I’m seeing here

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      What have you seen

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Definitely not butter

      2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        How on earth Spurs haven’t scored is incredible!

        1. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          They suck. Its simple.

          1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Wait til you see the highlights

        2. DycheDycheBaby
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Because they are Spuds, not Spurs.

  13. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Salah 3 point captain haul!

  14. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Weghorst was supposed to be the DGW blinded fever like Dennis and King. Oh well.

  15. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    This might put a few doubts in the mind of triple captainers

    1. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Always blanks v Burnley

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I'm getting closer and closer to BB instead

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Not for me really.

    4. Nanoelektronicar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I hope so. Never in doubt.

      Salah was never great against sitting deep organized defenses. His record v Burnley tells the story it's no fluke.

      Leeds and Norwich flimsy defenses is what he is preying on.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Think he won't start 1

        1. dabber7
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          You would think so, he's not (immediately after AFCON) going to play 5 games in 14 days going to into the final is he?

      2. Nanoelektronicar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Sure, but I can't see better TC opportunity than this.

    5. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Not for me. Burnley always had the hoodoo over Salah, been saying it for weeks.

    6. DAZZ
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Villa and Everton pumped 3 past Leeds no problem.

    7. MagicMessi
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      No Tc salah is obvious!

  16. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Dubravka on max baps from 1 save

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Meanwhile Lamptey gets nothing from assisting the game winning goal and a clean sheet

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        He got 3 bonus yesterday

        1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Wut

        2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          How did I miss that, they must have updated it, nice surprise - cheers!

  17. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    FT, Salah holds his CS point.

  18. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Probably go with TAA TC at this rate. Leeds defending set-pieces is a joke so those with Robbo+TAA could be laughing.

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      4 years, 5 months ago

      + Salah won't start both imo, perfect opportunity for a rest considering there's lots of games including champions League and a cup final

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Might C TAA over Salah

  19. Hughes Your Daddy

    7mins Spuds v Wolves injury time

    No sure which is sh@ter Kane or ronaldo

    1. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Kane played well and had a few shots from what i've heard

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Ok perhaps I am being too harsh! I was considering doing ronaldo to Kane -4 but think will
        Hold off now

    Lol at everyone who bashed on Bruno yesterday saying Salah was the one to captain.

  24. Viprin
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Chin up Salah owners, at least we caught that 0.1 price rise

  25. boc610
    • 14 Years

    LoL Salah

  26. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Damn. (C) fails everywhere. Fernandes, Ronaldo, KDB and Salah.

    Fernandes and Ronaldo have another chance though......

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years

      Another chance to disappoint 🙁

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Salah. Two 0s he was absent, one was a penalty miss.

      Fee fee to go without next GW 🙂

  28. DycheDycheBaby
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Robbo triple captain in GW26 anyone? 😀

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years

      No 🙂

  29. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Another big sa haul, spurs should have scored at least 1 but poor finishing

  30. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Spurs have a higher net-spend than Chelsea and Liverpool over the past 5 years, crazy that considering the gulf in class between the squads …

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Flawed metric
