Gameweek 2 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) concludes with Liverpool v Crystal Palace, which gets underway at 20:00 BST this evening.

Darwin Nunez gets his first competitive start in a Liverpool shirt, replacing Roberto Firmino and joining Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz in the three-man Reds attack.

Darwin was the third most-bought forward of Gameweek 2 following his nine-point return against Fulham on the opening weekend, with just over 350,000 managers hopping on board the Uruguayan.

Jurgen Klopp has made four changes to the side that drew at Craven Cottage, with budget defender Nathaniel Phillips, James Milner and Harvey Elliott also in for Joel Matip, Jordan Henderson and Thiago Alcantara.

Three of the players to drop out are injured, with Firmino absent as a precaution, Matip out with a muscle issue and Thiago sidelined for the foreseeable future because of a hamstring problem.

Phillips gets the nod over Joe Gomez, who is on only the bench despite the centre-half shortage.

Patrick Vieira has made just one change but it could be a significant one regarding starting formation, with defender Joel Ward coming in for benched striker Odsonne Edouard.

Michael Olise is fit enough to be a substitute after a long spell on the sidelines.

GAMEWEEK 2 LINE-UPS

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Phillips, van Dijk, Robertson, Elliott, Fabinho, Milner, Salah, Darwin Diaz

Subs: Adrian, Gomez, Keita, Henderson, Tsimikas, Clark, Carvalho, Bajcetic, Van den Berg.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Clyne, Guéhi, Andersen, Ward, Mitchell, Doucouré, Schlupp, Ayew, Zaha, Eze

Subs: Edouard, Milivojevic, Mateta, Hughes, Johnstone, Ebiowei, Plange, Olise, Richards.

  6. Rainer

    4 years, 1 month ago

    There's an £8.0m LWB for Liverpool similar to the £8.0m RWB for Arsenal, neither get CS points... avoid!

  7. Herger

    4 years, 1 month ago

    Robbo’s heat map is going to be so arousing

  8. have you seen cyan
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Do you remember when Clyne was at Pool, I think he got injured not long after they signed him for a long period, then they sold him eventually.

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

      He was solid for ages then he got a horrid injury and Trent broke into the team

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        yea, Clyne must look at that and think what a lost opportunity. Crazy

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

      Did well at the start for Klopp, got injured and some kid came in.

    3. @persecuted_by_mods
      4 years, 1 month ago

      He was like a better version of AWB

  9. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Salah's decided to sprinkle some some popcorn into his hair

  10. Mr Arsenal
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I hate players who turn their head after passing the ball as if they played a blind pass.

    Thiago does that, so does Diaz.

    Really arrogant and unnecessary

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      And Ronaldinho

      1. Mr Arsenal
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        No Ronaldinho actually didn’t look at the ball

    2. Royal5
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Very very annoying and cringe

    3. Peteex
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I think it tells more about you than it tells about player who does that If you automatically think that is arrogant gesture.

  11. DRIZ ✅
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    No bonus for va djik

  12. Silecro
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Blonde Salah is awful

  13. Royal5
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Palace look awful

    1. Royal5
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Was expectimg better against Liverpool B team

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

      Palace gave arsenal a tougher game
      Pool need to make the most of the possession there having

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

      That aged well

  14. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Anybody take 0-0 from this game?

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

      Absolutely

    2. OverTinker
      • 8 Years

    3. Salarrivederci

    4. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Only 4th hey 😆

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

      Double Liverpool defence and keeps Utd in the title race. I’d take it

  15. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Nunez is so good

    1. Sausage™️
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I love his movement, he's a real handful to play against..

    2. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Did he scored?

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

    2 players have tonight have to get more than 12 points to knock Xhaka out of the team of the week.

  17. Sausage™️
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    what's the general feeling about when to use the first wildcard?

    1. Salarrivederci
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I am looking at IB

    2. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      After the transfer window closes at the earliest. Optimum time is during Inty Break between GW8-9.

    3. AIRMILES
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      If Darwin does well tonight, I'd be very tempted.

      1. Sausage™️
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Playing UTD next week. Only thing is I have Trent & robbo, hard not to play both against utd, have salah as well..

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

    Diaz looks more of a LWB than Robbo

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

      Admittedly I’ve only switched it on

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
        4 years, 1 month ago

        They all looked like goalies to me

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Admittedly I only turned it on during a corner

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

            😆

  19. @persecuted_by_mods
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Nunez looks like Haaland, who looks like Lukaku

    Massive talentless donkeys

    1. Random Name
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      wtf are you on about

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
        4 years, 1 month ago

        You watching the game bro, jumping around like a talentless donkey isn't impressive, how about a good first touch or a successful pass

    2. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      If only they played like Weggy

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

      Painful

    4. Hazz

      You're posting too frequently. You'll rubn out of steam by GW8. Lower the quantity, increase the quality.

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Everything okay at home mate, stop attacking other users

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

          Feeling persecuted?

          For real though you should actually read the community guidelines since you're flagrantly abusing about 5 point twenty times every day.

          Weird the mods haven't had a little word with you yet.

          1. @persecuted_by_mods
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Just find it weird how most of your "quality" posts are just criticising other users

            Jog on snowflake

              Mate you make this place rubbish clogging up every page with a sarcastic comment that nobody cares about.

              When people are asking actual questions & having decent discussion, it's these stupid comments that ruin the site for everyone else.

              If I'm the bad guy for calling out people who are wastinf everyone's time so be it.

              1. @persecuted_by_mods
                4 years, 1 month ago

                Who cares what you think? You're literally one of the worst posters on here

                LOL let me know what decent discussion I ruined, I'll wait

                You're a pleb, most of your posts are criticising other users, literally get votes as one of the worst users on here

                        4 years, 1 month ago

                        Thanks lads, at half time my analysis has been proved correct so far, was obviously just joking that they're donkeys but snowflake era we're in these days that people take it personally but lo and behold Nunez hasn't scored 4 goals in the first half

      2. TheBiffas
        • 5 Years

  24. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  25. JELLYFISH
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Salah > KDB and Haaland > Nunez is tempting me right now

    1. RICICLE
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Every man and his dog wanted Haaland last GW, what’s changed?

    2. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      It shouldn't be

  26. C-Dawgg

    1. C-Dawgg

    What's up with Salah's fake tan, looks like he's casted in Jersey shore.
