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.

    Salah big miss, Robbo pass.

  4. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years

    Salah(TC) and Robbo. That miss is painful

      same here 🙁

    2. Lieutenant Frank Columbo

    Klopp furious at salah

    1. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      I sense another early subbing

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Bissouma*

      1. Chalobah's Witness
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        nope, he clearly didn't accept Salah being selfish, 'pass the ball'

  6. Lieutenant Frank Columbo

    @ Sun Jihai …. Did you post your top managers team links today … always find that a nice little read?

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Not done one today as only on mobile!

      1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        I’ll accept that excuse, top man.

      2. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        But here are a few:
        Magnus Carlsen: -8 hit: Bowen, James, DDG to Son, Doherty, Ramsdale; Robbo (c)

        Finn Sollie: -8 hit: James, Jimenez, Coutinho to Doherty, Kane and Dewsbury-Hall; Salah (TC)

        Fabio Borges: -4 hit: Bowen and James to Kulu and Doherty; Salah (c)

        Yavuz Kabuk: -4 hit: James and Jimenez to Soyuncu and Laca; Salah (c)

        Mark Sutherns: -4 hit: Raph and Kilman to Kulu and Doherty; Salah (TC)

    Klop fuming on Salah because he didn't pass.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Lies, he was fuming because he wanted a penalty

      1. Nanoelektronicar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        No, it's obvious he says "pass the ball, pass the ball"

  8. rokonto
    • 10 Years

    What's the most saves in one game for a keeper in fpl?

    1. kempc23
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Didnt DDG get something ridiculous like 15 once?

    2. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      14

    3. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      DDG 12 vs Arsenal a few years ago.

    4. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      DDG 20 vs Kane later

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        😆

    5. DF
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Ddg vs spurs last year or the year before. Loads of them.

    6. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Krul at Newcastle got something like 14-15 v Spurs

      1. Utopsis
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        This is my recollection as well - was a sight to see

    7. bOttOmEdpOstrEpliEr.
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Krul against Spurs 2013, 14 saves.

    Salah TCers in the MUD

    Deep Mud if Own Robbo too

    1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Quick sand mud?

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Have you seen Robbo's shorts? He's already been in the mud.

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Everyone in the mud at the moment.

  10. Shark Team
    • 8 Years

    Klopp fuming on Salad shouting “pass the bowl” !

  11. Holmes
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 24 days ago

    what a loser...

  12. Salalalalah
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 24 days ago

    In form Salah would have buried that

  13. Chalobah's Witness
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 24 days ago

    this ref needs to be checked asap
    he's so corrupt

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      What's he done now?

      1. Nanoelektronicar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        Moving the spray can around his waist all the time.

    2. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      This is VAR not Dean. The rules states that it must be clear and obvious, and this is clear and obvious mistake. And Var did check, but why on earth Dean was not going to the scrern is beyond me. Kane not red card, City escapes clear pen, and Brighton escapes red. All three are clear and obvious.

  14. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 24 days ago

    Boring game

  15. JBG
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 24 days ago

    Could really do with Brighton scoring a goal or two in the second half.

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Wash your mouth out

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Only if it’s Lamptey

    3. Shultan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Non robbo owner spotted

  16. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 24 days ago

    As it’s halftime, who would you say is currently the best player in the world?

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Diaz

    2. Nanoelektronicar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Kane because he hasn't blanked yet today, and Salah is blanking at the moment, so not Salah.

    3. Dynamic Duos

      Harvey Elliott

    4. Scots Gooner

      Trent Alexander Arnold gotta be up there

    6. Holmes

      Matip

    7. Nomar

    Shame that Salah didn't pass to Luiz Dias.

    1. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Diaz wasn’t in a good position tbf

      1. el polako
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        He was running in front of the defender the moment Salah decided to shot, little pass back and Diaz slots it in bringing me more juicy points.

    2. Nanoelektronicar

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          4 years, 24 days ago

          Kane, Doherty and Bavies owner here, and Spurs more than capable of disappointing us this GW.

          1. PartyTime
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 24 days ago

            Spurs won’t disappoint. I’m so certain

    2. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      45 mins out of 180 and we are already getting stupid comments like this, bore off

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        Stupid comment?
        What’s stupid about me congratulating Son & Kane cappers.

        If it hurts you, Go cry, shameless kid

          • 9 Years

    3. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years

      Thought Spurs were a good price during the week at 23/10.

  19. FPL Insanity

    Jota will be on soon to seal this game. I said few GW's ago AFCON has broken Salah. He's out of my squad for good after this GW

    1. Letsgo!
      • 9 Years

    3. Rainer

      Why do you own Salah so?

    4. Chenku╰☆╮
      • 11 Years

    Predicted everton lineup?

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Shite goalie, no defenders, midfield full of other clubs rejects, Richarlison & DCL

      1. JBG
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        Wow.. you must have some kind of Everton ITK knowledge, that seems pretty spot on.

      2. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        So much this. Teams in the Championship would laugh at some of the Everton options.

  21. Chenku╰☆╮
    • 11 Years

    Salah failed confirmed. TCers in mud..

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Don't try to jinx it, please.

      1. Chenku╰☆╮
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        Nothing can change it. He is playing wide and doesn't look interested. Which is rare but we can be happy for sure

    2. Zimo
      • 7 Years

      But I TC him in 26

    Salah half time sub. Anyone?

    🙂

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      hope so

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Only from Subway. Probably a meatball marinara fan.

    3. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Robbo preferably …

  23. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 24 days ago

    Salah's EO is 217% So giving armband to him is decent damage limitation. 5 pts for him means 0.85 against us who have "only" C on him. So not the end of the world if (and when) he scores.

    1. HaveYassineChikhaoui
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Tbf that's just top 10k, around my rank he's 190% EO, so happy to have him score.

    2. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      I don't fully understand

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        Check livefpl and learn what EO means 🙂 Since you have named yourself "brains", they should probably be able to solve this issue with understanding.

      2. HaveYassineChikhaoui
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        How EO effects you depends on your rank. In this instance, there is greater 'ownership' in the top 10k via captaincy/triple captaincy than there is where I'm ranked (~220k). What really matters is 'Your EO', which LiveFPL gives you a separate % for.

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      I prefer Son hattie with Kane and Kulu assisting them 😉

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        Reply fail to brains below

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        I'd settle for that without Kane.

      3. FPL Brains

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        I'll give you, Son hatty and Kane triple assist?

        ML rival has Kulu, I have Son haha.

  24. FPL Brains
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years

    Kane hatty with triple Son assist will go down a treat later.

    1. GoneFishing

      Amen

    2. COLLIN QUANER

    This place on matchdays is something special.

    Salah this, Salah that- 45 minutes into 1st game of double.

    Kane this, Kane that - 4 hours before kick off.

    1. Nightcrawler

      Don't forget the inane catchphrases

        Not had the 'Nowhere to hide for ***** owners' posts yet.

        1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 24 days ago

          Disappointing not to hear someone combine and say ‘nowhere to hid in the mud, you love to see it, yes you do’ …

          1. Nomar
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years

            Lack of creativity, innit.

      Whoever isn't blanking has the upper hand. Always has been. Blankers are in the mud, and non owner love to see it more than feasting on their players' points while they move.

      1. Nomar

      Yes... Some are serious, some are just entertaining themselves with tongue in cheek and laughing at those who are serious and at those who don't understand joke 😉

    How many players are you planning on having for the next GW and how many hits will it take?

    1. kempc23
      • 11 Years

      10 players, no hits, will roll a transfer. Took a -8 this week for Kulu and Doh with next week also in mind though.

      -4 for 9 if Bowen is fit.

    4. Abaddon

      11. no hits

      10, or 11 if I use my FT. But Tbf I used my WC this week

      Got 8 at the moment, so probably won't be taking a hit. Especially as I'll most likely be wildcarding straight after.

    7. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      9 & 1

    8. COLLIN QUANER
      • 9 Years

      11. 0 hits. But no bench

    9. Firminooooo
      • 10 Years

      10 or 11(1 hit)

    10. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years

      I have 9 atm, but haven't decided yet what to do. Injured players out for starters probably. I will make only transfers that serve me also long term (frer up cash for planned transfer next week etc).

    12. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
      • 14 Years

      I'll have 8 on a -4

      As a lifelong MU fan, this won't happen. Would absolutely love it, but most likely not.

      Spurs will win, but in a high scoring thriller imo

    Not watching. Is Salah playing well?

    Can I start to feel ok about Kane TC?

      Salah isn't playing well. Liverpool haven't created loads of good chances (but have created some good half-chances).

    Already looking ahead to GW30...

    Best defender for 4.4m (to replace Livra)?

    A) Ait-Nouri
    B) Thomas
    C) Amartey
    D) Roll FT and field 8

    It's really only these 3 choices I think. I'm not taking hits for one fixture and strongly considering just rolling FT so I have 2 for GW31 after the IB.

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      C maybe, will give extra cash itb.

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 24 days ago

      Roll

        • 15 Years
        4 years, 24 days ago

        Genuinely considering this. This transfer would literally be for one week and then I'm very unlikely to need that defender slot until I WC.

      Justin?

        Sorry. Not 4.4

      RAN at home to Leeds is decent on a FT. You'll be WCing soon after anyway.

    Maybe Thomas. Just to bank the extra future games as well? Not Amartey.
