Double Gameweek 33 continues this evening and there is plenty of interest in both sides from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) perspective.

Liverpool v Manchester United gets underway at Anfield at 20:00 GMT.

For the visitors, Ralf Rangnick opts for a back-five system with Phil Jones handed a surprise start alongside Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire.

Diogo Dalot is preferred to Alex Telles on the left, while further forward, Anthony Elanga and Marcus Rashford line up through the middle.

That means Jadon Sancho has to settle for a place on the bench.

Cristiano Ronaldo will not feature due to the tragic death of his baby boy.

Jurgen Klopp makes two changes from Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final win over Manchester City, with Joel Matip and Jordan Henderson replacing Ibrahima Konate and Naby Keita, both of whom are substitutes.

Roberto Firmino, meanwhile, misses out with a minor foot injury.

GAMEWEEK 33 LINE-UPS

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Henderson, Thiago, Salah, Diaz, Mane

Subs: Kelleher, Konate, Milner, Keita, Gomez, Jones, Jota, Tsimikas, Origi

Manchester United XI: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Jones, Maguire, Dalot, Matic, Pogba, Fernandes, Elanga, Rashford

Subs: Henderson, Telles, Bailly, Hannibal, Lingard, Mata, McTominay, Garnacho, Sancho

    Non-FH team on 65 with 3 to play. FH team on 38 with 7 to play. Remind me, is dropping 20 points good for a FH?

      I had planned to play it but after injuries was left with a bench of Sanchez, Lamptey, Cucho and Weghorst so didn't think it worthwhile...

      Not against Norwich at home and with Liverpool's recent defensive form. It was just a roll of the dice that could've gone either way, just like DGW 22 where I happily banked his 23 points.

    With no FH, my goal for this GW was to avoid red arrow and it looks possible now.

    From the look of EO, just need these wishes to happen on Wed & Thu nights.

    > Goals from Everton, Palace, Southampton and no CS for Leicester, Newcastle, and Burnley
    > Blanks for Wood, ASM, Broja, and Weggy

    Is 61 points too much to catch in the mini league for the last 5 GWs? Have to be a huge amount of differentials in my team I guess, sitting currently at 18k overall.

      Not too much, providing there's a fair amount of variance between your sides, you nail your captain, and you minimise hits.

      Odds still against you, though.
      Good luck!
