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

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Salah (c) as a differential this week. Mmmm.

  3. CheesyZoot
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Glad I didn’t fall into the trap of captaining a DGW player this week!

    Shame I went for son though LOL

    1. Kodap
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Lol, same

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Yeah I captained a SGW player too... Ronaldo

  4. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    The most unlikeable Man United team I’ve ever seen. Embarrassing.

    1. JoeTweaks
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      I honestly don't feel any way about this team.I don't see anything I'd associate United with in them so I'm just chilling waiting for more Salah goals.

  5. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    I captained Wood over Salah just because he plays twice, yes I am an idiot

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      same here except i went with saka

  6. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Even Thiago is looking good vs Man United

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Thiago has been looking good in many games of late, wdym?

    2. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      He looked crap against city

    3. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      He has always been good against teams that don't press him immediately throughout the game

      1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Like city

    4. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Think he's been decent this season tbh

  7. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    This game proving again how Ramadan is affecting salahs performances

    He has already broken his fast and looks like a completely different player to when he is playing during fasting

    1. Dammit_182
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Very good point!

  8. -GK22-
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Are Chelsea DGW34 or has it changed since ye3sterday?

  9. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Salah bending me over after I rejoiced at his missed penalty earlier in the season

  10. Free Hat
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Taa's positioning at times is scary as non owner on FH

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Just the positioning?

  11. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Diaz goal offside

  12. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Did free hitters pick Salah on average?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Nah, majority won't have. Picked Bruno G & Ronaldo instead.

    2. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Yea most of the twitter fpl folks did

    3. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Nope

    4. Athletico Underachieving
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      I did out of fear as I’m winning my MLs…sadly captained Bruno though

  13. Cheeto__Bandito
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Salah EO below 100% WOW

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Not one of my ML captained him.

  14. Dammit_182
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    40 goals for mitrovich!! How many does he get next season in PL? (4 probably!)

    1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      14

    2. Rassi
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      About 10

      1. Dammit_182
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        I think 10 would be fair actually

    3. COLLIN QUANER
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Less than 10

    4. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Too good for championship, not good enough for PL

      1. Dammit_182
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Guess he should play for rangers then!

    5. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Scored three last time around

    6. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      6

    7. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Mitrovic & Jokic in the NBA look similar.

  15. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Sort of regretting getting Pukki. He won’t play Man Utd every week. Oh well

    1. COLLIN QUANER
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Haha. I benched him this week. What was I thinking

  16. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Rangnick asking for trouble with that lineup. Sancho and Telles should be starting.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      I can understand why Telles didn't start but it's not like their current solution is doing very well.

  17. Hy liverpool
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    I'm so glad that jurgen is a red sounds amazing

  18. COLLIN QUANER
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Another Salah (c) return puts me in the top 100k which is exciting. Cmon Mo!!

  19. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Anyone else think a quadruple is on?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      It's not not on.

    2. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Would be deserved but I fear mental fatigue will nab them down the final strait.

      1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        It's virtually impossible in normal circumstances. Add on the fact you have to get 90 plus to win the league alone in this Era. Surely can't be done

    3. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      The biggest obstacle is expecting City to drop points.

      I just can't see it

      1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Did you see them dropping against palace?

        1. Nightcrawler
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 12 months ago

          They had the luxury of dropping points back then. Now it's an entirely different ball game. City have shown that against much infierior oppositions when it becomes a must win they get it done

          1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 12 months ago

            Can they win 7 straight and handle Madrid? Is the squad strong enough?

    4. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Will need a bit of luck from the lady to do but you never know!

    5. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      why not? They will surely beat Villareal. have 50-50 chance in Premier League & bit more than 50% in Fa cup

  20. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Come on United get a penalty

  21. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Bruno LB!

  22. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Badly need de gea to haul

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      He will need to make some saves first. Closer to a negative score currently.

  23. JoeSoap
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    My highest scorer on FH is 3 lol, well maybe 4 if Bruno last 60 minutes.

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Can see him picking up a YC in frustration

  24. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    As much as I like rashford for his work off the field it's clear he is not good enough for a top half premier league side

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      True. Should be playing for Brighton

      1. Marvin.
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        That's not fair, Brighton are pretty good.

      2. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Brentford or Burnley imo.

        Could be a useful partner for Toney or Weghorst.

  25. Stranger Mings
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Time to do -4 to get salah back?

  26. Fit_to_drop
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Assuming Werner holds his place in Chelsea’s next fixture and performs, how about this potential transfer for game week 34:

    Doherty, Saka, Lacazette >> Guehi, Mount, Werner.(-4)

    Exact money.

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Yes

  27. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    HT. I think Liverpool could win this.

  28. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 12 months ago

    Three years of Ten Hag and United will be back.

    Hang in there Boson...

    1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Liverpool needed 4 years of klopp.

      Klopp inherited a better team than this.

      Klopp is a better manager than ten haag.

      3 years?

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 12 months ago

        Five then 🙁

      2. @persecuted_by_mods
          3 years, 12 months ago

          He means back in top 4

          1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 12 months ago

            Even that

        • Nightcrawler
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 12 months ago

          The team klopp inherited was worse imo

          Pool were back in top 4 the following season and in ucl final less than 3 years after his appointment

          1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 12 months ago

            And we won something in year 4.

            Firming, Sturbridge, coutinho, Can, Henderson, Milner, Moreno, clyne, lovren, mignolet are miles better than this garbage

    2. aapoman
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Yeah I'm gonna wild card to get Salah back and ditch my United assets... How would this look? BB in 36, FH in 37

      Schmeichel
      TAA Robbo Cancelo James
      Salah Mount Havertz Foden
      Pukki Watkins

      Foster; White, Joao Pedro, Gordon

    3. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 12 months ago

      Salah is bleeding baps here. He's already almost been overtaken by Diaz.
