The final Premier League match of the day is an unusual 7.45pm BST kick-off and sees Liverpool entertain struggling Leeds United.

Erling Haaland has almost had the monopoly on the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) captaincy for the last couple of months but an old armband favourite, Mohamed Salah, will be carrying the hopes of legions of FPL bosses tonight.

Over 1.25 million managers made Salah their skipper outright ahead of Saturday’s deadline but there’ll be plenty of others who are relying on the Egyptian as their vice-captain after Haaland’s earlier no-show.

Salah starts as expected this evening and, if Jurgen Klopp is sticking with the 4-4-2 diamond he used at Ajax in midweek, FPL’s most expensive asset will again be playing through the middle of the hosts’ attack alongside Darwin Nunez.

The Reds’ side is about as full strength as Klopp can go this evening, with Thiago Alcantara recovering from an ear infection to start.

He takes the place of Jordan Henderson, who drops to the bench.

Leeds are without the injured Luis Sinisterra but the myriad other first-teamers who were yellow-flagged for this match are mostly fit, with Rodrigo, Liam Cooper, Tyler Adams and Joe Gelhardt all making the matchday squad.

Adams is one of three players recalled by Jesse Marsch for this one, with Crysencio Summerville and Rasmus Kristensen also getting the nod.

Luke Ayling and Sam Greenwood drop to the bench.

  16. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Gomez will be before 10 mins if he doesn’t improve

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      OFF

  17. dshv
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Van dijk will be removed from my team for the most cheapest person!

  18. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    That pitch is so slippery

  19. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Same lol. But at least we get another one after the World Cup 😀

  20. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Surely VVD scores today, surely

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      yeah

    2. A. PRISE
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Not sure that Liverpool scores to be honest

  21. Brehmeren
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Surely that's a Gomez assist. Really need those points.

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Agreed - I do genuinely think they should still award assists if the opposition set the goal up

  22. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    TAA limping

  23. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Trent limping

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

    Salah (c) and Gomez.
    Hopefully that means a higher chance of Liverpool scoring 2 goals or more...

  25. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Trent limping?

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I think Trent is limping guys

  26. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Wasnt it Leeds game when Elliot broke his leg into pieces?

  27. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Pool simply cannot do PL anymore it seems

  28. Hooky
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Gomez is the new Titus Bramble

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

      Another of the group of players that England fans will wait until the squad is selected and then decide whether they should have picked or not, with their opinion the opposite of what Southgate has done

      Coady and Dier are the same.

  29. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Limping of the Trent

  30. dshv
