Two more Double Gameweek 29 matches take place this evening and there is plenty of interest in both of them from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) perspective.

Brighton and Hove Albion v Tottenham Hotspur gets underway at 19:30 GMT, with Arsenal v Liverpool kicking off 45 minutes later.

The headline team news comes from the Emirates, where Mohamed Salah is only among the substitutes after his injury scare at the weekend.

Diogo Jota takes the Egyptian’s place in the front three.

Jurgen Klopp’s only other alteration from the win over Brighton sees Naby Keita drop out and Thiago Alcantara come in.

Mikel Arteta keeps faith with the same 11 players that saw off Leicester City on Sunday.

As for the match on the south coast, there are no real shocks on either teamsheet.

Spurs are unchanged from their 3-2 loss at Manchester United, which means starts for well-owned assets like Son Heung-min, Harry Kane, Dejan Kulusevski and Matt Doherty.

There are two alterations to the Brighton starting XI, meanwhile, one of which sees Tariq Lamptey drop to the bench – a now-common occurrence when the Seagulls play twice within the space a few days, such is Albion’s management of his minutes.

Shane Duffy and Pascal Gross both start as Steven Alzate also makes way.

Above: FPL assets sorted by ‘effective ownership’ in the top 10k. All bar Martin Dubravka of the players in green above are in action this evening.

    Those asking about the Kulu assist. Clearly a Brighton OG from this angle the below angle. The fpl towers will credit the goal to Kulu with a Son assist.

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

      An Emerson Royal own goal would go down a treat.

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

    OK Brighton you can score now and reduce Romero's baps

  26. BeWater
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Son absolutely done as an option. Salah out to fund Kane this week then Son to Salah in 31. He's going to get hooked every game and Kane never is.

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

      I'm holding next week but definitely sticking with my plan of moving him to Mahrez or Sancho

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

        Got to hold next week but after that no chance. -4 to get on Kane(c) well worth it.

  27. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    WTF is going on with Kulu's assist?

    1. Simon69
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      It's in the void

    2. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I dunno
      Eidurno

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      They consider it to become Kulu goaland Son assist.

    4. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Unfortunately, FPL is run by a bunch of incompetent mugs

  28. banskt
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Cancelo scores more than Doherty in a DGW.

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      He won't next week though.

      1. Esalman
