The Merseyside derby gets Gameweek 6 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) underway this lunchtime, one of eight Premier League matches taking place on a busy Saturday.

Kick-off at Goodison Park is at 12:30 BST.

Liverpool had the shortest turnaround of any top-flight team between Gameweeks 5 and 6, and Jurgen Klopp has made a handful of changes as a result.

Andrew Robertson and Roberto Firmino are among three players making way, while Darwin Nunez is thrown straight back into the starting XI on his return from suspension.

Gameweek 5 starter Jordan Henderson is now out injured, while Fabio Carvalho and Kostas Tsikimas get a recall.

New signing Arthur Melo has received belated international clearance and is on the bench, as is the newly fit-again Diogo Jota.

As for Everton, manager Frank Lampard has largely stuck with the same team that held Leeds United to a creditable draw in midweek – with one exception.

New signing Neal Maupay starts in place of Dwight McNeil, who drops to the bench.

Fellow new arrival Idrissa Gueye is also among the Everton substitutes but James Garner isn’t in the squad.

GAMEWEEK 6 TEAM NEWS

Everton XI: Pickford, Patterson, Coady, Tarkowski, Mykolenko, Davies, Onana, Iwobi, Maupay, Gray, Gordon

Subs: Begovic, Keane, Allan, McNeil, Coleman, Gueye, Vinagre, Rondon, Mills

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Tsimikas, Gomez, Van Dijk, Fabinho, Elliott, Carvalho, Salah, Diaz, Nunez

Subs: Adrian, Robertson, Phillips, Matip, Milner, Arthur, Bajcetic, Firmino, Jota

      Should never jump from Smirnoff Ice to straight Smirnoff, mate.

    9. Berkshire Hafaway-Line
      • 6 Years

      I brought him. But financed it by switching TAA to Cancelo. Swings and roundabouts.

    Someone needs to show me something this week, i want a Diaz replacement, Sinisterra, Maddison, someone!

    1. OLDHERMAN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Why?

      1. Drip Doctor
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Because he's pretty rubbish.

        1. OLDHERMAN
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 18 days ago

          Are we talking about Luis Diaz?

          1. Drip Doctor
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            4 years, 18 days ago

            Yes. He's garbage. Doesn't create a single thing.

            1. OLDHERMAN
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 18 days ago

              Luis Diaz is garbage. I see.

              1. Drip Doctor
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 16 Years
                4 years, 18 days ago

                Incredibly overrated. You'll see in time.

                1. OLDHERMAN
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 9 Years
                  4 years, 18 days ago

                  I am actually afraid you will see in time you're dramatically wrong, lad's a baller.

                2. Boss Hogg
                  • 16 Years
                  4 years, 18 days ago

                  I love watching Diaz play. Exciting talent with an air of unpredictability with a touch of the street footballer about him.
                  Football is ace.

                  1. Drip Doctor
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 16 Years
                    4 years, 18 days ago

                    Very poor mans Mahrez.

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Not very tempting options

  4. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    *sigh*

  5. The Final Boss

    Kulu benching is hurting. Was my oly differential in my ml. From footballing perspective is son or kulu who deserves a benching?

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Conte desperate for Son to get his first goal to build back confidence
      Kulu rested for Marseille, City, Sporting games

      1. 50ShadesOfGray
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Son not worth the money. Kulu far better form

        1. International Richard
          • 16 Years
          4 years, 18 days ago

          Form took him to the bench

    2. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      He can still do something from the bench.
      Even 1 assist is better than what Salah or Diaz produced earlier today.

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      don't worry, I sold him for Diaz last week.

      2 points.
      3 points.

  6. Zambian FPL Addict
    • 8 Years

    Klopp has killed me

    1. Rainer
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      You killed Salah!

    2. The Philosopher
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      I select you for a mission to go find and bring us the Zambian witch doctor.

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      You set up a recurring payment to that doctor, didn't you?

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Technically he didn’t blank though…

      2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Or was the curse that he didn’t score?

    4. Zambian FPL Addict
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Give me two weeks my girlfreind and I are going on holiday to Livingstone will find him lift the curse, will ask for Son blessings and the end of Haaland

    Concerning that with 5 subs now available Klopp is subbing wingbacks around 60 minutes

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      It's strange as he's doing it when they actually need to win games. Trent is one of the best crossers in the world, surely you just keep him on if you want to create a winner.

      1. BERGKOP
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        He was average today. A few loose passes and not all that sharp. Wasn't seeing that quality delivery.

        1. v1nc3
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 18 days ago

          Klopp is average today

      2. The Mentaculus
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Nothing strange about it with UCL about to begin

  8. C-Dawgg
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    This is the best I’ve done out of any GW this season just because I don’t have Liverpool defenders and didn’t captain Salah.

    Can we just postpone the kick offs so I can enjoy this?

  9. schlupptheweek
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Tuchel playing Gallagher so deep again just doesn't make sense. He's a great attacking mid but can't do a Kante

    1. Siva Mohan
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      3-5-2 with Galla more in attacking positions than RLC

    2. International Richard
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Armchair manager alert

  10. OLDHERMAN
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Salah may be one year older and not in his prime anymore, but he's also been very very very very unlucky in the last games.

    1. Mozumbus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      I'm thinking of keeping him against wolves at home and captaining him another week

      1. OLDHERMAN
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        So will I.

      2. KanuLenoMeeMoCash
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        I just cant think where else I'd spend the money tbh
        Might not captain him as much but he's still quality and when thiago is back Liverpool will go up a gear

    2. banskt
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      If anything, I thought he was lucky to get 2 assists against Newcastle and a goal against United.

      1. OLDHERMAN
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        He could have scored far more, practically in every single match.

    3. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 17 days ago

      Poor finishing isn't bad luck.

  11. Mambino
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    who to bring in - Nunez or Kane?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Nunez

      1. Mambino
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        price or just better?

        1. Well you know, Triffic
          • 16 Years
          4 years, 18 days ago

          Best striker in the world

    2. sunzip14
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Will know in the next 2 hrs

  12. Salarrivederci
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    WC activated. Need to fix my team (Salah and Robbo)

  13. Eat my goal!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Robbo > Trent doesn’t seem worth it anymore

    Robbo benching tactical or rest?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      We don't know anymore. He'll probably start v Napoli though.

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      bit of both.

      like the Trent benching.

    3. BERGKOP
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Rest imo. Looked sharp when he came on. Great deliveries.

  14. Home Run Baker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Quite excited actually to drop Salah and maybe TAA. Provides plenty of cash to bring in some top players and change the look of the team.

    1. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Wolves next. No need to knee Jerk.

      1. Home Run Baker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Good thought ... may wait.

    2. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      I dropped Salah last gw but I’m not dropping Trent

    3. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      I've not owned him at all this season. Provided plenty of cash to make mistakes all over the squad haha.

  15. sirmorbach
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    For the first time in my FPL years I'm seriously thinking of ditching Trent.

    1. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Still plenty of attacking threat, but lack of clean sheets plus rotation makes it difficult to justify his price.

  16. Jordan.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    2 f/t changing to 343 4.7 itb
    trent/stansfield to trippier /kane looks good to me

  17. Drip Doctor
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Right lets go Neco Williams. This is the one and only game you'll play for me this season.

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      injuries permitting

  18. The Philosopher
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Who to keep on WC?

    A: Salah
    B: KDB (will have Haaland)

    *Sterling will replace Salah if I go B

    1. The Philosopher
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      Ignore the Sterling part. He's coming in regardless

      1. Capocannonieri
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        What do you think about the Aubameyang dynamic.

        There is something wrong with that dude's brain. As a kid was tossed by Milan for being an Imp. Tossed by Arsenal for being an Imp.

        Barcelona looked at him closely and found him to be unprofessional

        1. Number14
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 18 days ago

          And here you are, being an imp

  19. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 18 days ago

    Time to ditch Diaz?

    1. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      If he starts vs Napoli, yes.

      1. banskt
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        Do you think he will be rested against Wolves?

        1. Drip Doctor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          4 years, 18 days ago

          If he starts vs Napoli, yes.

    2. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      If Salah goes, I think you have apply the same logic to other LIV attacking assets.

      1. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 18 days ago

        As below, it’s about value

    3. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 18 days ago

      He’s averaged 5.33 a game which isn’t bad for 8mil

      Much better than salah at 13mil and 6.33 a game

          The smell of WC's burning and the 3 year old children who were lauging at me when Darwin got a red card. When I already had him in GW1. He is an instant in for me again and all the crybabies will be getting him as well

          1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
            • 9 Years

            Sounds like he takes the game a tad too seriously…

        Agreed. Going to be plenty bringing him in if there’s a CS

    Sorry to go over old ground. Missed the game!

    Was Trent sub-tactical or an injury?

    See Salah blanked again.

    IS he really worth the 13m this season? Especially with the fixtures coming up. Now thinking WC GW8

      PS Can we have an ignore option for Foo Fighter, please mods?

        I think you already have it. Er, just ignore?

          yes on the Palace website forums for example, you can ignore certain members who are trolling, so you don't see their posts

          He spams the site 500 times a day. It's not possible to ignore.

            At least his comments are getting removed now. No ban yet though sadly.

      Straight swap for Milner. No injury. Eye on Napoli I guess

    I took a real gamble on Kane C. Cmon Kane bang in the goals, get some penalties, tap ins, even some assists will do. Do something.

    Jiménez injured himself warming up.

    Not on the bench anymore.

      Extended look at the new boy. All good.

      btw Bruno Lage said he could play them at the same time, I guess that would be in a 4-4-2

      Jimi will forever be a 5.5 legend - the dream appears over.

      He would be a superstar in Italy. He should join AC Milan. The team is trash, owned by American Private Equity. Basically owned by Satanic forces, but Milan, Italy is still cool. Cooler than Birmingham UK or much cooler than Birmingham USA

    Today we saw the something worse than Pep Roulette- "Klopp Trap"

    (1) Robbo benched
    (2) TAA pulled at 58" for Milner! Milner! Useless Milner!
    (3) Jota is back
    (4) Firmino warming up at 41" no guarantee of 60" for your starter
    (5) Salah is still a great real player but for FPL, he is just not getting the touches and shots anymore

    You really cannot own 3 pool players with Klopp Trap in play. You will have Firmino, Dias, Jota, Carvalho, and Elliott sharing minutes. Only 13M Salah is probably playing +3000 minutes this year.

    Maximum TAA and wildcat Attacker like Dias is about it.

      Firmino was warming up for injured Carvalho. Nobody's guaranteed to last, it's a contact sport.
