Five more Gameweek 12 matches take place on Wednesday evening, with Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur following on from four 7.30pm BST kick-offs.

As predicted/feared, Jurgen Klopp and Graham Potter have made several changes this evening with the games coming thick and fast.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Fabio Carvalho, Kostas Tsimikas, Jordan Henderson and Darwin Nunez are all recalled by the Liverpool boss at Anfield tonight, with James Milner, Harvey Elliott, Andy Robertson and Fabinho benched and Diogo Jota now sidelined for months.

David Moyes gives Flynn Downes his first Premier League start for West Ham, while the fit-again Kurt Zouma and Pablo Fornals also return. Vladimir Coufal and Emerson Palmieri are demoted to substitute duty, while Lucas Paqueta has reportedly picked up a shoulder injury and is set for a spell out.

In west London, Graham Potter has matched Klopp in making five changes from the side that began the 2-0 win at Aston Villa at the weekend.

Out go Thiago Silva, Ben Chilwell, Mateo Kovacic, Raheem Sterling and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, with all bar Chilwell on the bench. Kalidou Koulibaly, Cesar Azpilicueta, Jorginho, Conor Gallagher and Armando Broja are their replacements.

Hosts Brentford make two changes from the side that began the 2-0 win against Brighton last Friday as Zanka and Mads Roerslev oust Kristoffer Ajer and Yoane Wissa from the starting XI.

In the later kick-off, there is just one change apiece.

Marcus Rashford replaces Cristiano Ronaldo for the Red Devils, while Spurs’ Yves Bissouma comes in for the injured Richarlison as Antonio Conte opts for a 3-5-2 at Old Trafford.

On Tyneside, an unchanged Newcastle take on an Everton side who have Anthony Gordon and Dominic Calvert-Lewin back in their team. Dwight McNeil and Neal Maupay make way for the Toffees.

Some 300 miles south, Bournemouth are also unchanged for the south-coast non-derby.

The only alteration for visitors Southampton is enforced, with Duje Caleta-Car coming in to replace the injured Armel Bella-Kotchap.

    3. SkyByBo
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

    4. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

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

      Salah isn't a great FPL option with Darwin tbh

    6. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      No room. Nunez hogging the middle and everything coming down left side. Only 1 type of haircut getting baps tonight.

      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Salah miles out wide of the box when Nunez has a free header with Firmino just over his shoulder.....Salah never scoring in this game

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

  13. DavidKent
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Are Liverpool playing 442?

    If so, are Firmino and Nunes equally central/forward? I have the former, wondering if I should have got the later!

    1. SkyByBo
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Firminho more like a 10, Nunez right on the shoulder.

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

        Does that make Nunez the better buy?

        1. SkyByBo
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          100% and it's not close

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

            Damn

  14. Bounce
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Go onto FPL have have a look at Walcott's history. 17 seasons in the PL is pretty impressive.

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Check Milner’s!

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        How can you check?

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          View player information and then scroll down to the bottom under history

    2. Bounce
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Same for James Milner I've just noticed. Anyone else?

      1. Bounce
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Ashley Young has 16.

        1. Bounce
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Fabianksi has 16 too.

          1. Bounce
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            Begovic 15.

    3. Zalk
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      What's funny is that fpl only keep history from the 06/07 season. I've been playing since 01/02 or something and they only started keeping track of stats in the 06/07 season. Milner played for Leeds in 02/03.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        That’s when Opta started I think

        1. Zalk
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Aha, yeah that might be it.

  15. Old Gregg
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Gw 13.

    Which move please >

    a) Bowen> Foden/Saka
    B) Zaha > Foden/Saka
    C) both for -4
    D) roll

  16. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Darwin sitter. should have had a second.

  17. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Nunez is never going to be looking to play Salah in. 😆

  18. Layifioren
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    I had Tsimikas on my team but I took him off because Robertson was back and Tsimikas got a one-pointer last game to block Burns from coming in with 5 points. Now Robertson isn't playing and Tsimikas got an assist already. Lovely.

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

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

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      So he's doing to Salah what Salah always did to Mane

  25. FantasyTony
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Koulibaly is so slow.

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years

    • 9 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    1. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago
