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.

    Dare someone to captain Salah at the weekend

    1. Ha.
      4 years, 7 days ago

      I mean it’s Nottingham Forest…

    2. Thanos
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Klopp is ruining him and in turn destroying the club's scoring prowess. Nunez is not dependable as Salah is.

    3. Bluetiger1
      4 years, 7 days ago

      50/50 prior today's game yes now unsure & if worth going back to Haaland

  2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Q - if a player strikes a pen and it’s going wide but the keeper ‘saves’ it, do penalty save points still get awarded?

    1. Ha.
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Is it a shot on target?

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        4 years, 7 days ago

        No

    2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      4 years, 7 days ago

      How’s a keeper diving past the post?

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        4 years, 7 days ago

        Happens, sometimes happen in open play too

  3. Viper
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Really like the look of this WC. Any thoughts?

    Kepa

    Cancelo Trippier Doherty (Tarkowski Neco)

    Saka Foden Martinelli Salah (Andreas)

    Darwin Haaland Mitrovic/Scamacca

    Thoughts?

    1. TheBiffas
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Yup excellent

    2. meule
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Like it

      1. meule
        4 years, 7 days ago

        Other possibility is downgrading Tarkowski and Mitro to Toney ?

  4. JBG
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Suck a duck Bowen.

  5. Bobby Digital
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Shaw KTFO

  6. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Why oh why is Klopp playing Salah as aright back ??

    1. PartyTime
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Because I captained him

  7. josh7191
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Errrrm Alison penalty save points? Why haven't they been added. They will add them right xd got Bowen so loving his miss obvs

    1. Viper
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Off target so no pen save awarded

      1. Viper
        4 years, 7 days ago

        Just kidding, they'll be added soon 😉

  8. BUZZBOMB ♡
    4 years, 7 days ago

    And so it goes on.

    GW9 Jesus to Mitro
    GW10 Saliba to James
    GW11 held
    GW12 KDB, James and Maddison to Salah (c), Guehi and Bowen

    Currently on 1 -4 for this GW's transfers. 1st hit of the season. If I had only swapped James and captained Zaha (vc)...

    1. WVA
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Salah C Guehi Kilman Bowen so far

      1. Josh.E
        4 years, 7 days ago

        Same dilemma and I took a hit what a disaster!

  9. rozzo
    4 years, 7 days ago

    A). Salah vs Forest and Andreas +4
    B). Saka and Foden

    The answer is B ain't it

    1. Ha.
      4 years, 7 days ago

      A

    2. TheBiffas
      4 years, 7 days ago

      A

    3. Royal5
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Yup and it's blowing in the wind

    4. Mr. O'Connell
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Salah out for a hit before playing Forest? I'm all for it.

    5. FantasyTony
      4 years, 7 days ago

      A

    6. WVA
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Always the one with Salah

  10. WVA
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 7 days ago

    That Bowen penalty miss could be season defining for me, no-one in any of my mini leagues has him, just can't catch any luck in this game.

    1. TheTinman
      4 years, 7 days ago

      SEASON DEFINING.

      Give me footing strength man. Get a grip

      1. WVA
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        4 years, 7 days ago

        I've lost leagues by 1 or 2 points plenty of times, that sort of bad luck can cost big time

    2. Ha.
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Consider yourself lucky he won’t be on the next penalty and miss that one too

      1. FPL Daniel
        4 years, 7 days ago

        Odds that being season defining are extremely slim imo

        1. WVA
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          4 years, 7 days ago

          Make good decisions and the right picks but just get bad luck

    3. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Rival has Neco on bench and gets him because Paqueta is not playing. I have Bowen and Estupinan.

  11. FPL Daniel
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Is too early for Salah captain fail shout ?

    1. Ha.
      4 years, 7 days ago

      No

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Too late if anything

  12. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Spurs looking a bit sloppy

    1. FPL Daniel
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Playing Perisic and Son on the same side is a huge mistake imo

      Perisic is suffocating their golden boot winner, I don’t get it honestly why Conte is insisting on it

  13. Bubz
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Rashford needs to finishing those

  14. The Senate
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Romero not booked because?

  15. Berkshire Hafaway-Line
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Mo Salah, welcome to the infield

  16. JBG
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Trashford is back.

  17. Royal5
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Loris on fire

  18. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Cresswell is a minging egg sandwich.

    1. Utopsis
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Eh?

  19. Count of Monte Hristo
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Lloris is flying!

  20. FPL Daniel
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Salah out for a hit and spread the cash ?

    1. lindeg
      4 years, 7 days ago

      good move, 13m is so not worth

  21. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    4 years, 7 days ago

    LLoris is saving them all

  22. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 7 days ago

    12 points from 9 incl captain drunken sailah

  23. FPL Daniel
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Ljioris looks possessed

  24. FPL Daniel
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Kepa is unreal, where did he come from ?

  25. Count of Monte Hristo
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Anyone rage selling Bowen?

    1. FPL Daniel
      4 years, 7 days ago

      I hope they do

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      4 years, 7 days ago

      If I rage sold all my players who blanked this week, I'd be on a -36 point hit.

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 7 days ago

      And Mount, Tossard, Salah, Wilson?

    4. BUZZBOMB ♡
      4 years, 7 days ago

      Yes. Moaning until May about how I brought him in as part of a hit for a -1 for 1 week is worth far more to me than any measily points he scores hereon.

      He came for a hit and will probably go for one too. May hold Zaha but he's going for Foden or Saka.

  26. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Lloris on for massive save points

  27. La Roja
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Lloris is having a blinder

  28. FPL Daniel
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Another big GW for keepers ?

  29. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Well at least I'm not hopeful of Spurs managing to keep a clean sheet any more

  30. Zilla
    4 years, 7 days ago

    Manchester dominating so far, hope that materialize
