The final Premier League match of the day is the meeting between Liverpool and Manchester United at Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp’s side thrashed United 7-0 in the corresponding fixture last season and will return to the top of the table with a win today.

Pressure is building on Erik ten Hag, meanwhile.

The Red Devils crashed out of Europe on Tuesday and have just one win in their last four Premier League games.

Kick-off is at 4.30pm GMT.

Liverpool boss Klopp makes just one change from the side that beat Crystal Palace 2-1 in Gameweek 16, with Ibrahima Konate partnering Virgil van Dijk at the back.

The Frenchman comes in for Jarell Quansah, who drops to the bench.

Erik ten Hag makes four alterations from the 3-0 loss to Bournemouth.

Harry Maguire, Sergio Reguilon, Bruno Fernandes and Anthony Martial are replaced by Jonny Evans, Raphael Varane, Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Hojlund.

GAMEWEEK 17 LINE-UPS

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, van Dijk, Tsimikas, Endo, Szoboszlai, Gravenberch, Salah, Diaz, Darwin

Subs: Adrian, Kelleher, Gomez, Jones, Gakpo, Elliott, McConnell, Quansah, Bradley

Manchester United XI: Onana, Dalot, Varane, Evans, Shaw, Amrabat, Mainoo, Antony, McTominay, Garnacho, Hojlund

Subs: Bayindir, Rashford, Reguilon, Pellistri, Wan-Bissaka, van de Beek, Gore, Hannibal, Kambwala

  No need to change anything. Took away bonus. That'll do

Not many considered Palmer for (C), but he was playing the worst team in the league at home. Hindsight and all that, but...

Obviously when most go Watkins next GW using the same logic, he will blank. This is the FPL way.

  Think the price tag mentally influences you in terms of captaincy!
  I did consider Sterling (and he has returned now against every single promoted team) but have been trolled by him so many times

    Yeah I definitely agree re: the price tag. My captain choices have been consistently rubbish this season, I need to shake it up!

Sanchez* Turner at the moment.

Thinking of doing Turner to Petrovic and running with the Chelsea keepers.

Other option is Leno, already have Trippier and don't double up

Let's face it. Darwin really must be one of the most annoying assets in fpl.

Not only does he miss easy chances,
he also gets booked easily, isnt football smart, runs offside ALL the time, doesnt play 90min, ...

Really thought he turned the page after Newcastle and some confidence...but my god I will never have him in my team again (this season).

Some players are unlucky, he is just plain bad and annoying...

  And yet he is capable to brace from bench against a good team. Annoying. And the minute you sell him, he braces.
