Gameweek 27 gets underway with a fixture that generally promises goals and Fantasy Premier League (FPL) hauls.

Bournemouth v Liverpool kicks off at 12:30 GMT.

The Reds won the reverse fixture 9-0 back in August and have scored at least three goals in each of their last four visits to the Vitality Stadium.

Jurgen Klopp’s side of course go into this match in fine goalscoring fettle, having demolished Manchester United at Anfield last weekend.

Having been offloaded en masse in the run-up to Gameweek 26 (hello, Wildcarders), Liverpool players are predictably back in fashion: despite the lack of a ‘double’ this week and a blank to follow, Mohamed Salah was the third-most-bought midfielder and Darwin Nunez the second-most-bought forward of Gameweek 27.

Both players start this afternoon in a Liverpool side showing only one change from the one that thumped United 7-0.

Stefan Bajcetic comes in, as Jordan Henderson makes way.

As for the hosts, they gave Arsenal a scare last Saturday and have pushed Brighton and Hove Albion and Newcastle United close in recent weeks.

Gary O’Neil has made three changes from the Emirates.

Lloyd Kelly, Jefferson Lerma and Jaidon Anthony all return, as Chris Mepham and Antoine Semenyo drop to the bench and Jordan Zemura misses out.

GAMEWEEK 27 LINE-UPS

Bournemouth XI: Neto, Smith, Stephens, Senesi, Kelly, Ouattara, Lerma, Billing, Anthony, Rothwell, Solanke.

Substitutes: Travers, Fredericks, Cook, Mepham, Brooks, Christie, Vina, Moore, Semenyo.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson, Elliott, Fabinho, Bajcetic, Salah, Gakpo, Nunez.

Substitutes: Milner, Firmino, Adrian, Henderson, Jota, Tsimikas, Carvalho, Arthur, Matip.

    Saw something on Twitter from Ben Crellin that GW28 blanks might move to GW34? Have i read that wrong?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Think the missed games get played in 34 yeah

      "My plan if Steele keeps his place and the fixtures move as expected (NEW vs BHA to GW31 and the GW28 Blanks to GW34) would look something like this":

    United might as well be 8-0 down against Bournemouth 😛

  14. romperstomper
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    sold salah for jensen and darwin for toney

  15. ☈☾
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anfield makes a big difference

  16. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bournemouth have lost 3/3 games when they were 2-0 up

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Keep at it 1-0 lads!

  17. Dynamic Duos
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I need some 7up abit parched now

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Cherry coke

  18. romperstomper
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    BOU were no pushovers vs arsenal last week either

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

      Bournemouth put two past ars, got 1-1 with city, shown they can score

    2. Shteve
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Cherri choke after 7up? Unusual combo

      1. Shteve
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Reply fail!

  19. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Non FH'ers - how many are you looking to field next week? I might have to sell Haaland

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Got 9. MIGHT sell Haaland to get 10.

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Same as me atm. Saving my FH

    2. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’d be on 8 without selling Haaland and I wonder if it’s worth to FH there or just hold for later

    3. thegame983
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      9

    4. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      depends on appetite for hits

      may just play the FH chip and be in better shape for gw32 with a wildcard in 29 or 30.

      1. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Issue with this is that the teams blanking in 32 will double in 34 (except Chelsea might only have DGW37)

    5. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      11 if I do Haaland > Watkins

    6. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Nine. Will probably sell Haaland for Brendan Johnson.

      1. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Ten in total.

    7. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      The plan for this week is to sell Haaland > Watkins/Havertz/Felix

      Field 10.

    8. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      10, probably Haaland to Watkins and might get Chilwell with other free transfer

    9. CoracAld2831
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      11 hopefully, after selling Haaland after this week.

  20. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Elliot is crap

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

      Love your shrewd analysis

  21. Klip Klopp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone with all their chips left, what’s your plan for the next few weeks?

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Eating them with a dip

      1. Utopsis
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Which?

    2. Bigbars
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Pray 28 isnt too painful, on 7 players at the mo, BB for 29, and wait for the others

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      BB29 FH32 TC33

      1. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        * TC34

      2. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        And WC?

        1. The Mentaculus
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Played

    4. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Same here, and ain't got a clue. Might just use the international break to lay out a plan.

    5. The Big Fella
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      50-50 at the moment but leaning towards WC this week and then BB GW29. The only issue I have with that is, I have 10 already for this week. I will try and work out how many doublers I have/can have with two FTs if I don't use one this week.

    FYI if Liverpool lose this game I'm going to destroy the universe. So if there's anything on your bucket list, you might want to get cracking.

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

        I'm afraid I don't know what that means.

        1. Utopsis
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

        FyI: "an Eternal–Deviant warlord from the moon Titan, Thanos is regarded as one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel Universe"

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

          Ah ok. I'm a grown up, so I'm not aware of such things.

          1. lilmessipran
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            I am going to destroy the universe, yup, that sounds grown up.

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

              Ha ha! Fair comment.

      The only thing left on my bucket list

      Saving the universe

  23. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years

    4-1 to liverpool

  24. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Trent and VVD bet on Bournemouth first goal

  25. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Van Dijk is so slow now.

    1. Shteve
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Horrific attempt at defending for the goal. Actually it's being kind to call it an attempt.

  26. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Liverpool are back!

  27. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Solanke chance. Awful control

  28. SamH123
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bournemouth dangerous whenever they go forward because it's always a fast attack

  29. Vlad Tepes
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Liverpool looking like shite, glad I kept Salah and Nunez on WC

  30. Old Bull
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    If you were a bookmaker, Bournemouth scoring first against Liverpool would be just the script you wanted.
