Five more Premier League matches follow on from Manchester City’s shock defeat to Brentford in the lunchtime kick-off:

After the Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne captaincy fails, there’s a chance for Mohamed Salah backers to make some ground today.

The Egyptian starts in a Liverpool side showing only one change from the Gameweek 15 win over Tottenham Hotspur, as Ibrahima Konate misses out and Joe Gomez comes in at centre-half.

Nathan Jones starts his Southampton reign by bringing in Duje Caleta-Car, Adam Armstrong and Romeo Lavia for Theo Walcott, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and the injured Juan Larios.

In north London, Antonio Conte makes two changes to the Spurs team that lost at home to Liverpool in their last Premier League game.

The fit-again Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski both return, replacing the benched Yves Bissouma and the injured Ryan Sessegnon.

Willy Gnonto for the injured Jack Harrison is Jesse Marsch’s only alteration.

There’s only one change between the two sides at the London Stadium and it’s an enforced one at that: Luke Thomas replaces the injured James Justin for Leicester City, who take on unchanged West Ham United.

Bournemouth’s two changes from Gameweek 15 are in defence, with Jordan Zemura and Jack Stephens recalled, Ryan Fredericks dropping to the bench and Chris Mepham suspended.

Everton also make two alterations from last weekend as Nathan Patterson and Neal Maupay replace Seamus Coleman and Dominic Calvert-Lewin. The latter is out injured.

Forest players who impressed in midweek are rewarded for their displays as Jesse Lingard, Joe Worrall, Willy Boly and Renan Lodi oust Steve Cook, Scott McKenna, Neco Williams and Emmanuel Dennis from Steve Cooper’s XI.

Palace are unchanged but the fit-again Odsonne Edouard is back on the bench.

    1. Monklane
      • 16 Years

        Worst part was deciding after lots of thought to choose him over Castagne weeks and weeks back.

          1. Hughes Your Daddy
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Nobody will admit to that.

            1. ‘Tis the Season
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

  3. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Nothing from Perisic, useless!

  4. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Kane 2 Assists

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Huh?

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

    Kane given an assist?

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Looks like Kulu

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

        Ah yeah, it’s for the 2nd goal I guess (Davies)

  6. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    What a pass from Kane

  7. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Kane has been given Rodrigo's 2nd goal!

  8. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I was nearly right - Doherty so close to tucking that home himself!

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

      Can’t believe Emerson is first choice over him

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Not anymore I don’t think!

  9. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    As an non haaland owner glad I didn't get carried away for his blank my team has been awful...

  10. GreennRed
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    This could end up 6-6 but Conte needs to stop papering up the cracks and buy some defenders in January.

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Its up to Levy isn't it

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        No. Either more money and/or sell some players to improve or walk.

  15. Superflymonk
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

  16. Granville

    3 years, 5 months ago

    Captaining Salah was a free hit after the Haaland blank. Doesn't look like he's getting a return today.

    1. Monklane
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Hey, double Haaland.

      1. Sif
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        A relief when your second choice does nothing.

  17. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Red card time for the Kane hat trick 😎

            Why are they having a bad day when their request is applauded by the majority on here ?

            1. RICICLE
              • 3 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              Request? Majority? Don’t even know your reasons to applaud such a thing ‘slouch” lol, jog on .

                  Lmfao, great comeback to a complete nonsensical argument you’re having with yourself. Wow….to be you, ouch slouch.

  19. TomSaints

    That zaha penalty miss is so painful in a low scoring week.

    Different between green and red arrow =[

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I got zaha, ml leader has Henderson!

    2. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Say it with me. We vow to ignore Zaha for the rest of this "year"

  20. Podge
    • 15 Years

    Wahoo double figures 🙂

  21. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years

    Kane you are KILLING me

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      The game recently has mainly been about Kane vs Salah vs KDB in the second premium slot. Kane is winning.

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

        By a landslide

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Killer Kaptain Kane

  22. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Blimey. Rank taken a battering today, at least a few left to play.

    Haaland, KDB, Salah eating up that budget for nicht! Solanke the MVP with a single assist dragging me up alone :mrgreen:

  23. Rainer

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years

  24. lordkippe
    • 9 Years

  25. fantasist
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Annoying for Neco owners. NF on a CS but hes benched

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Don't get one if he plays.

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

      Probably because he’s benched lol

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

      If Neco played, then Zaha would've scored his pen

    4. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Most of us are owners but the Forest clean sheet had nothing to do with him.

    5. fantasist
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I put him first sub cos I thought NF would nick a 1-0 and that's what's happening

      1. Ten Hag of Bud
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

          1. RICICLE
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago
