Double Gameweek 36 continues this evening and there is plenty of interest in both sides from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) perspective.

Aston Villa v Liverpool gets underway at Villa Park at 20:00 BST.

Mohamed Salah finds himself among the substitutes for the visitors, while Andrew Robertson misses out completely.

Salah is the most-captained player of Gameweek 36 both overall and within the top 10,000, with 84.46% of the leading managers handing him the armband:

The premium pair are among five players who drop out of Jurgen Klopp’s starting XI from Saturday’s draw against Tottenham Hotspur.

Also making way are Ibrahima Konate, Jordan Henderson and Thiago, with Joel Matip, Kostas Tsimikas, Naby Keita, Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota taking their places.

Roberto Firmino makes his return as a substitute after six matches out with a foot injury.

Steven Gerrard, meanwhile, makes two changes from the 3-1 win at Burnley, including a recall for Philippe Coutinho against his former club.

Marvelous Nakamba also comes into the starting XI, with Calum Chambers and Emiliano Buendia dropping to the bench.


GAMEWEEK 36 LINE-UPS

Aston Villa XI: Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne, Nakamba, McGinn, Luiz, Coutinho, Ings, Watkins

Subs: Olsen, Sanson, Buendia, Traore, Chambers, Young, Chukwuemeka, Chrisene, Iroegbunam

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, van Dijk, Tsimikas, Fabinho, Keita, Jones, Diaz, Jota, Mane

Subs: Kelleher, Konate, Thiago, Milner, Firmino, Salah, Gomez, Henderson, Origi

    Salah to stay on bench then?

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Seems like it

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

      For a little bit anyway, too early for final sub.

    Look at Mane' attitude, and compare that to $alah'$, I know who i'd sell

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Manè getting heavily linked with Bayern too

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

      Mane has certainly put in more of a shift tonight

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

      Yeah completely agree - though I’d quite like to see them sell both and chuck in Diaz for good measure 😀

  3. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Yay. Another DGW cap fail.

  4. Piggs Boson

    Dammit Ings, wasting too many chances...

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Will tear it up next week when all the FHers dont own him.

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

        Waste of space.

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

        Typical fpl...

      3. NorCal Villan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Narrator: he didn’t tear it up in the following week

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

      At least he has more pts than Salah now.

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

        Well... Not anymore.

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

    Coutinho continues his form!

  7. Scots Gooner

  8. CheesyZoot
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ings has only slightly more pace than Jon moss… also only slightly more hair

  9. Snake Juice
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Diaz has made me proud this week.

  10. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Salah on

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years

      Klopp hoping to improve the goal difference

  11. Stimps
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Scratching Danny Ings off my free hit team...

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

      Yep, shame.

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Alisson isn't easy to beat. Give him an inch and he'll smother you, your touch needs to be impeccable.

  12. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Matip on top of the baps 😎

    1. _Make
      • 9 Years

    3. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Up to 27 after Salah made it on. Hoping Tavares and Pukki can pull me out of this black hole.

    4. fplgaruda

      Season over

  17. COLLIN QUANER

    4 years, 1 month ago

    Just relaxing with the football on in the background. Enjoying a delicious drink called Shaken Udder Vanillalicious. I am slightly addicted to flavoured milk

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

      I LOVE that stuff!

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

        It's amazing isn't it! I go through a couple of bottles a week (big bottles) lol

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

          I get at least a bottle every time I go to Sainsburys lol - all the flavours are incredible, swear they lace it with something 😆

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

            Definitely lace it with something as I can't get enough of them haha!

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

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Sounds posh. Just got Fanta here bruv.

      Ooh, seen they do a Strawberries & Clotted Cream flavour... love a bit of clotted cream ...may need to buy one.

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

        Fanta lemon is my go-to fizzy drink. Love it!

        Honestly all the flavours are top notch. Can't pick a favourite as they're all great. If you get one, let me know what you think

    3. NorCal Villan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Sounds like a children’s drink

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

        Lol!

        1. Paqueta Rice

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

    5. Zimo

      1. COLLIN QUANER
        • 9 Years

    6. Zimo
      • 7 Years

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

        The Strawberry and Banana innocent smoothie is my favourite

    7. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years

      M&S banana milkshake. Stunning.

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Fantasy milkshake scout

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

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

        Haven't tried that and annoyingly the M&S that was near me closed down. Next time I pass one I'll check it out. Always looking to try new milkshakes, thanks!

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

          Litre bottle. You won’t regret it.

    8. NorCal Villan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      This is truly a galactose of a thread

  18. Mighty Banana
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Salah making me sweat already.

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

      Why?

      1. Mighty Banana
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Because I don't own him, and my Rival does.

  19. HonestBlatter
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Matip SoT

  20. CheesyZoot
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    After tonight, Cancelo or TAA on FH?

    1. Lord.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Wait until after the Cup Final.

  21. JBG
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    TAA never does anything when my rivals don't have him.

  22. Old Bull
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Been listening to the match on the radio. Only heard Jota named once. Has he been abducted by aliens?

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

      Great AA.

  23. fedolefan
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    So has TAA forgotten how to get returns or what?

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

    Salah is done as an option

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

      Last time someone rubbished a player he scored. Salah due!

  25. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Watkins off... limping.

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

    Watkins crocked.

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

      Good Gerrard update needed!

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

    Ings dodging points here...

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      He could have easily had 2 goals here.

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

        Watkins poor touch denied an assist too, he's been brilliant!

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      It's bloody annoying. Feel he should have had more than 10pts this GW.

  28. Wizard of Ozil
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    anyone have an idea what FPL price Haaland will be for City next season?

    1. tangtastic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      im gonna say 12

    2. fantasyfog
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      What's the max so far on FF

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

        Wasn’t Van Persie about 14?

      2. Biggsy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Why would they price Haaland higher than anyone previously?

  29. Biggsy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Oh man I can see it now. Free-hitting and getting Mane just for Salah to suddenly haul...

  30. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ings g... offside
