Brighton Hove Albion v Liverpool gets Gameweek 29 underway at the Amex at 12:30 GMT.

These are two of the six sides who ‘double’ in this week and there is unsurprisingly plenty of Fantasy interest in the Reds.

A whopping 94% of the top 10k captained Mohamed Salah in the current Gameweek and, with almost one in four of these managers using the Triple Captain chip on the Egyptian, his ‘effective ownership’ (EO) tops 200%.

In laymen’s terms, if you didn’t Triple Captain the leading points scorer in FPL and you’re in one of the rank tiers below where Salah’s EO is in excess of 200%, you’ll lose a bit of ground if/when he returns.

There are no massive shocks when it comes to the team news, with Virgil van Dijk starting despite being absent from training earlier this week amid reports of Covid cases at the club.

Jurgen Klopp has made three changes from the side beaten by Inter Milan in midweek.

Naby Keita, Jordan Henderson and Luis Diaz return, as Curtis Jones, Diogo Jota and Thiago Alcantara drop to the bench.

Brighton manager Graham Potter makes four alterations following the 2-1 defeat by Newcastle last time out.

Yves Bissouma, Alexis Mac Allister, Neal Maupay and Solly March come in for Shane Duffy, Danny Welbeck, Jakub Moder and Pascal Gross.

Midfielder Enock Mwepu, who has been out for two months with a hamstring issue, is on the bench.

GAMEWEEK 29 LINE-UPS

Brighton XI: Sanchez, Lamptey, Veltman, Dunk, Cucurella, Alzate, Bissouma, Mac Allister, Trossard, March, Maupay.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Keita, Henderson, Fabinho, Salah, Mane, Diaz.

    Missed the deadline! Really wanted to bring in Gordon for Ramsey. Oh well…

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

      Both play the same amount of games over the 29&30, should be fine.

    2. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      F******king hell, get out my kitchen….

    I think the lesson for those that sold Virgil due to rumours is to remember one of JFK's most famous quotes:

    "Don't believe everything you read on the internet" (1959).

    1. Jafooli

      Was it not Nostradamus that first said that?

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

        He did but he only copied Aristotle.

    2. Twisted Saltergater

    2. Kaneyonero

    Please help yourself Salah(TC)

  11. Sharkytect
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Pressed free hit already, realised I have TOO MUCH money for the players available. 3mil to spare even when choosing all the most expensive

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Buy salah on bench

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

    So if you have Salah (c), TAA and Robbo
    Salah and TAA goal combinations bad
    but Salah and Robbo good for rank?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Depends on your rank. Salah just under 200 for me so any goal involvement is a green.

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

      Yes.

    I've noticed that FPL managers who use the wrong pronouns are really struggling this season.

    1. COLLIN QUANER
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      My pronouns are Pine/Pineapple

  16. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Mane siter

  17. mad_beer ✅
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    When do Liverpool start playing?

  18. Herger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Well, doesn’t look like bench boost was worth it this week. At least I’ve not got it anymore though.

  19. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Not sure what I want from this game as a Trent, Robbo and Lamptey owner!

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      A 0-0? Everyone's got Salah so you're not losing there.

    2. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      All 3 ogs would do me fine

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      0-0 would probably net you about 20 points with likely BAPs.

  20. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Imagine if Brighton somehow manage to keep two clean sheets. This place will go nuts.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Dunk TC was just a couple of seasons early.

    2. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Imagine there's no heaven
      It's easy if you try

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

    I'm sorry but VVD sellers only have THEMSELVES to blame

  23. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Liverpool not getting a CS the way BHA are playing. Not good news for TAA captainers

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

  29. Sim Simma
