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.

    1. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Ramsdale

      1. TheBiffas
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Fair

    2. iL PiStOlErO
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

    3. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 9 Years

  12. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Basically, all Arsenal have to do is not be absolute s***e, and they’ll get top 4 by default.
    Nobody else wants it!

    (Though West Ham may have something to say about it, Utd & Spurs are shocking!)

  13. OverTinker
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    and I thought my KDB to Salah move is a masterstroke 🙁

  14. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Now Villa will score! Danny Ings presence alone will make them score

  15. Ron_Swanson

    Conte constantly telling the world & his dog that his players are sheiiite is not exactly great motivation for them to play well! Now they are matching his expectations!

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years

      Straight from the Mourinho playbook

    2. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      But I transfered him in for this week. He's playing for me 🙁

      1. thegaffer82
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        That’s just unlucky!

    3. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      It’s not like they haven’t been punished before over and over again.
      I don’t have any sympathy (except perhaps in the case that they needed the cash to get Salah (tc) )

      1. DycheDycheBaby
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah I think there were probably a lot of those people not wanting to get priced out of Salah.
