Double Gameweek 19 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) gets underway at the Brentford Community Stadium, with Liverpool making the trip to west London.

The hosts claimed a 2-0 win over West Ham United in their final game of 2022, while Jurgen Klopp’s side came from behind to beat Leicester City 2-1 at Anfield.

Kick-off is at 17:30 GMT.

As for the all-important team news, Brentford’s top scorer Ivan Toney misses out, having been stretchered off in Gameweek 18. The forward’s muscle injury is “not significant” according to head coach Thomas Frank, but is enough to keep him out today.

That means Yoane Wissa comes in and partners Bryan Mbeumo up front, while Vitaly Janelt for Josh Dasilva is the only other change.

Liverpool, meanwhile, make three alterations from Gameweek 18, as Ibrahima Konate, Kostas Tsimikas and Fabinho replace Joel Matip, Andrew Robertson – who was withdrawn on Friday with a dead leg – and Jordan Henderson.

As for new signing Cody Gakpo, he’s not in the matchday squad, with the Dutchman now in line to make his debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup on Saturday evening.


GAMEWEEK 19 LINE-UPS

Brentford XI: Raya, Roerslev, Zanka, Pinnock, Mee, Henry, Norgaard, Janelt, Jensen, Mbeumo, Wissa

    salah has gone back to being wide and ineffective

    Looking at the captaincy numbers, only 50% captained Haaland. Looks like he is going to be my differential this week.

      Same here.

      2 pointer incoming for us!

      1. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I am expecting Manchester City to display a bounce-back-performance against Chelsea. Let's see.

      2. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        A whole lot of people, especially the FPL influencers, have captained Mitrovic.

        1. alastair
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          What have the influencers in the top 2 million done ?

          1. banskt
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            I do not have that data. But, again 90% of managers in the "Elite64" league also captained Mitrovic.

            1. alastair
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              The problem with internet posts is that one can't communicate the sense of irony/humour etc.

              1. banskt
                • 12 Years
                3 years, 3 months ago

                Ha ha. I get that now. 🙂

                1. alastair
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 16 Years
                  3 years, 3 months ago

                  Goodo !

          2. Gizzachance
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            The ones who don’t have great ranks?

    2. Capocannonieri
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Who else got C? Mitro?

      Some folks are just driven to madness by DGWs

      1. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Mitrovic 30% overall, but almost 90% of elite players.

      2. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        It’s an opportunity!

    3. MADCHESTER UTD
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I reckon Chelsea will keep Haaland quiet but will still lose to city 0-1 or something.

      Mitro will score one against Leicester and two against Chelsea

      1. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        That would be bad for my team. This is one of those rare weeks with captain differentials.

    Liverpool need to just pay Bellingham’s buy out clause and get the deal done

    1. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Sure he’ll stop them leaking goals

    2. Mirror Man
        3 years, 3 months ago

        They need 5 midfielders.

      • Leaf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Bellingham has the pick of any club in the world, not sure Liverpool is his best option.

      • Bartowski
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        What's to stop him faking his own death if they do?

      • alastair
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Except that Bellingham has the choice as to where he goes - it may not be Liverpool.

        1. Mirror Man
            3 years, 3 months ago

            We all know where he's going.

            1. Piggs Boson
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              God damn Madrid.

              Must be the sun and all those UCL trophies.

              1. Mirror Man
                  3 years, 3 months ago

                  The novelty is wearing off. Better projects in Saudi these days, never mind the big one.

          • FantasyTony
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Not sure he fancies the Europa Conference league mate

        2. FCHaalandaise
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Can I still do Darwin to Mitrovic for the double?

          1. Mohammed Salad
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            If only!

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

            My biggest regret of the season

            1. FCHaalandaise
              • 3 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              Not if Mitro blanks and gets a YC with the armband on

            2. FCHaalandaise
              • 3 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              Better yet, misses another penalty

          3. el polako
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Keep Darwin he will score a goal one od these days.
            Great xG, keep him.
            Better for the rest of us.

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

            Still time for a Darwin hattrick here

            1. el polako
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              Looking at his finishing so far he'll need 30 sitters to score 3.

          5. aWhisperer
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Yes, send an email to FPL customer service.

        3. PogChamp
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          There should be loyalty points for owning Darwin.

          1. Drexl Spivey
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Return policy.

          2. Nomar
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            On the plus side, he is 'covering' Salah for £3.6m less.

          3. Gandalf
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            1 extra fpl point for 5 unconverted XG's might make him more appealing

          4. Gizzachance
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Him an salah could of had few goals an assists between them in last few games, not to be so far

          5. bso
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Lol...nice one

        4. Totalfootball
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Did anyone captain Darwin ?

          1. banskt
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Of course someone did, but not statistically relevant for this week.

          2. Our Tiny Windows
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Raises hand

        5. JBG
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Really should have done Donkey to Mitro -4.

        6. Kaneyonero
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Darwin's not going to score here is he

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

            Hope he gets something, took martial out for mitro, could well bite me on the backside!

          2. teknicolourfox
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Darwin's not going to score h̶e̶r̶e̶ ever is he

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

              Lol

        7. raymonds
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          This is the kind of a gameweek where someone like Oxlade-Chamberlain becomes the top scorer

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

            Sterling!

              • 10 Years

              could well be

        8. Thanos
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Players have stopped passing the ball to Nunez in the final third. They know what to expect.

          1. el polako
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Can't blame them.

        23. Gudjohnsen
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Was That a pass or a shot fróm Nunez?

        24. Bartowski
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          That was so bad from Nunez.

          The worst finisher in PL history?

          I think most 3rd division CBs are more lethal at this point in the games evolution.

          1. MADCHESTER UTD
            • 10 Years

            Ade akinbiyi enters the chat. Actually that Cornelius player was terrible

            Emmanuel Rivière was shocking for Newcastle.
