We have two Double Gameweek 25 matches taking place on Wednesday evening, split over GMT kick-off times of 19:45 and 20:00.

It’s a great opportunity for Arsenal to take advantage of their game in hand and go five points clear of Manchester City, while Everton need a win to escape the relegation zone.

Meanwhile, recent results have put Wolverhampton Wanderers three points above the Toffees, as they prepare to face Liverpool for the fourth time in under two months.

The big news revolves around two popular FPL forwards right now – Darwin Nunez (£8.8m) and Eddie Nketiah (£6.8m). Whilst the Uruguayan starts for Liverpool, an unchanged Arsenal line-up means Nketiah remains on their bench.

It means that Gabriel Martinelli (£6.5m) starts again, alongside the usual Bukayo Saka (£8.5m), Martin Odegaard (£7.0m) and established first-choice defence.

Nunez for Cody Gakpo (£7.8m) is one of six changes made by Jurgen Klopp, with a completely different midfield trio plus the introduction of Kostas Tsimikas (£4.4m) and Ibrahima Konate (£4.8m) for Andrew Robertson (£6.8m) and Joel Matip (£5.9m).

Key players Mohamed Salah (£12.7m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.3m) survive the mass rotation.

As for Everton and Wolves, both have made one alteration to their weekend line-ups. Michael Keane (£4.2m) replaces Conor Coady (£4.9m) for the Toffees, whilst Julen Lopetegui brings Joao Moutinho (£4.7m) in for Matheus Cunha (£5.5m).

Hugo Bueno (£3.9m) starts but Nathan Patterson (£3.9m) will not participate at all.

  24. lilmessipran

    Went Robbo over Vvd because I could not afford Taa and ended up with a whopping 15 point swing ..this game

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah but can't imagine anybody plumped for Virgil. He's been gash this year. Unlucky mate

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        So has TAA and Salah but still....

  26. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Is Weghorst one of those players that isn’t actually underrated or what? The guy doesn’t stop. Every second he is on the pitch he is pressing. His work leads to so many goals.

    1. Ron_Swanson
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Lol

    1. JBG
