Gameweek 18 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) follows hot on the heels of Wednesday’s action and kicks off this evening, with two matches taking place.

West Ham United v Brentford gets us underway at 19:45 GMT, with Liverpool v Leicester City following quarter of an hour later.

David Moyes makes three changes from Gameweek 17, as Angelo Ogbonna, Emerson Palmieri and Gianluca Scamacca come in for Thilo Kehrer, Tomas Soucek and Michail Antonio, all of whom drop to the bench. That suggests a change of shape for the Hammers, potentially to a 3-4-3 formation.

As for Brentford, Thomas Frank makes only one alteration to his starting XI, with Josh Dasilva replacing Vitaly Janelt in midfield.

Over at Anfield, Liverpool make just one change from the side that beat Aston Villa 3-1 on Boxing Day, as Harvey Elliott comes in for Fabinho, who is absent from the matchday squad.

Brendan Rodgers, meanwhile, brings in Wilfred Ndidi and Ayoze Perez for Youri Tielemans and Dennis Praet. Jamie Vardy is once again named among the substitutes, while James Maddison misses out through injury.

    Every piece of Pool's game is garbage at the moment. They have had many poor games this season but this is definitely one of the worst.

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years

      Most of our players is playing at their worst ever

  6. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years

    Toney could easily play for a top 4 team. Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal and United could do with him.

    Pity he has a 6 month ban looming.
