The best two sides of recent Premier League seasons do battle at 16:30 BST on Sunday, as Liverpool meet Manchester City at Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp makes five changes from the side that lost 3-2 at Arsenal in Gameweek 10, with James Milner, Joe Gomez, Andrew Robertson, Fabinho and Harvey Elliott all coming into the starting XI.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is among those who drop out, but he does make an earlier-than-expected return from injury, as he takes his place among the substitutes alongside Darwin Nunez.

Ibrahima Konate, meanwhile, is absent from the matchday squad.

As for Man City, Pep Guardiola makes just the one change from last weekend’s 4-0 win over Southampton, as Ilkay Gundogan comes in for Riyad Mahrez.

That means Erling Haaland leads the line as expected, but Jack Grealish has to settle for a place on the bench.


GAMEWEEK 11 LINE-UPS

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Milner, Gomez, van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Thiago, Elliott, Salah, Jota, Firmino

Subs: Kelleher, Henderson, Jones, Tsimikas, Darwin, Carvalho, Bajcetic, Phillips, Alexander-Arnold

Manchester City XI: Ederson, Akanji, Dias, Ake, Cancelo, Rodri, De Bruyne, Gundogan, Bernardo, Foden, Haaland

Subs: Ortega, Grealish, Laporte, Alvarez, Gomez, Mahrez, Palmer, Lewis, Wilson-Esbrand

    A foul is a foul, Pep.

  4. BeaversWithAttitude

    Jota loses his head! Normally as reliable as Big Ben.

  5. krzys
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    It was a clear foul to be honest

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

      Only Foden and Haaland owners arguing otherwise

  6. Berkshire Hafaway-Line
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Darwin off bench should be spicy

  7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Salah motm so far

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Even though peeps been slagging him off for missing chances?

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Just felt he’s making some great runs causing that city defence real problems

    2. Chalobah's Witness
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      he's one of the worst teamplayers I've EVER seen in my whole fkn life and I'm such an old fart

  8. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Been brilliant this 2nd half so far.

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      End to end, a goal will spice this further

  9. BobB
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Double foul by Haaland - kicked it out of keeper's hand too

    1. Zidane's Floor
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      plus it came from a goal kick for city which should have been a corner

  10. afsr
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Seems half the team is out or in doubt:

    Pope
    Williams, Zouma, Trippier
    Pereira, Bowen,
    Martial*, Mitrovich
    Subs: Iversen

    Out: Haaland, Foden, Cancelo, Maddison, Martinelli, James
    2FT, 4.5 ITB

    A - Maddison, James -> Mount/Trossard, Chilwell (get Nunez/Firmino in GW13 if Martial is not ready)
    B - Maddison, James, Martial -> Mount/Trossard, Chilwell, Solanke (-4)
    C - Maddison, James, Martial -> Salah, Chilwell, Solanke (-4)

    Don't plan to get Jesus, so that forward spot is potentially up for grabs till Qatar

  11. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Looks like Haaland is on for his first blank of the season

    1. Zidane's Floor
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      someone bookmark this

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

    The pass from Salah to jota was incredibly quick thinking and execution under a high pressure situation

    1. Zidane's Floor
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      useless player

    2. BobB
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Agreed - it was the best thing I've seen him do all season. Flash of his best.

    3. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      If Jota scored there would have been a MUDWAVE

  13. SomeoneKnows
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    I've got 9 players for GW12 (one of which is Neco) and I plan to WC13

    Which of these transfers should I make for a -4 hit if at all?

    A) James > Guehi
    B) Maddison > Trossard
    C) Madisson > Mount

    *Guehi is a player I also want for my WC so an early transfer could save me 0.1-0.2m

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      A

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Who do you think scores more in GW12?

  14. Chalobah's Witness
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Salah should at least try to stay on his feet.

  15. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Haaland owner but not capper. Should I celebrate a red card or it hurts me too?

    1. Zidane's Floor
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      celebrate i think

    2. chocolove
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      RC would be amazing for us.
      Kane capper here

      1. jacob1989
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Yes i c kane too. I ll take a YC. Red card means another transfer to be wasted

        1. The Philosopher
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Yeah, Kane C for me too. And you're right, a YC might actually be better.

  16. chocolove
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Haaland blank!

  17. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

  18. sirmorbach
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    1. seanie3
      • 14 Years

      Omg, your a clown

      1. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        *you're

        1. Ten Hag of Bud
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          It's a t£$% that spells it your. It's a c£$% that corrects him

          1. The Philosopher
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            And it's a #£&@ that analyses the comment

          2. Zimo
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            It's a b£$% that gives birth to a litter

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Lol

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

    Fab YC

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      What bout a glorious RC

  20. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    KDB to Salah is a rather easy xfer this week

  21. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Hauland sot

  22. WVA
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Need to wildcard away this horrible midfield.

    Salah Bowen Maddison Martinelli

  23. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    The ref is awfully chill today. Must have smoked something before the game.

    1. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Can you link me up with the ref's dealer?

  24. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Still too early to celebrate c kane over haaland?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Nah, pop the champagne.

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Nope, you're good, he's blanking

  25. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Actually shocking from City this

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Best pool have played all season so far

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        I suppose, trust them to turn it on Vs city

        1. Gizzachance
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Typical

        2. Paqueta Rice
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Once city win it will deflate them again. If Pool win, it will be the kickstart they need and nobody wants that

      2. Bluetiger1
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Agree by far

  26. Gubby-Allen
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Who would you sell for Mount, until the WC?

    Bernardo Silva or Maddison.

    1. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Silva

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Bilva. But both have a blank.

      1. Gubby-Allen
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        I know, one will go but the other may stay for a few more weeks.

    3. WVA
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I'd sell one for mount this week and the other for saka after the blank

      1. Gubby-Allen
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Good idea, I had Trossard pencilled in for that move.

  27. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    KDB will be subbed here

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Would round my god awful gw off nicely

  28. keefy59
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    A real high intensity game
    I think subs might make the difference

  29. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Salah wide

  30. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Ok 25-ish min to go ... score prediction? 1-1?

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      2-0 city

      Let’s face it though, won’t happen haha

    2. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      0-0
