Four more Premier League matches follow on from the Merseyside derby, all of them kicking off at 3pm BST.

TEAM NEWS

There’s no Murillo for Nottingham Forest today as Ange Postecoglou’s side travel to Turf Moor.

There are three changes in all for the Tricky Trees from last weekend, with Oleksandr Zinchenko, Douglas Luiz and Dilane Bakwa coming in.

Ibrahima Sangare and Callum Hudson-Odoi make way.

Florentino replaces the suspended Lesley Ugochukwu for Burnley.

At the Amex, Xavi Simons is the latest victim of Thomas Frank’s rotation. Also being culled are Pape Matar Sarr and Djed Spence.

Destiny Udogie, Joao Palhinha and Wilson Odobert all start.

Brighton make four changes with Brajan Gruda, Carlos Baleba, Ferdi Kadioglu and Yasin Ayari all starting.

James Milner and Danny Welbeck are benched, while Jack Hinshelwood and Maxim De Cuyper miss out with injuries.

Jorgen Strand Larsen is only fit enough for substitute duty at Molineux.

Jose Sa, Jackson Tchatchoua, Jeanricner Bellegarde and Fer Lopez oust Sam Johnstone, Hugo Bueno, Andre and Hwang Hee-chan.

Leeds are unchanged.

Finally, at the London Stadium, Crystal Palace’s sole alteration sees Adam Wharton return from a groin injury and replace Jefferson Lerma in midfield.

West Ham have made two tweaks. Alphonse Areola replaces Mads Hermansen in goal, while Callum Wilson comes in for the suspended Tomas Soucek.

    2. Brosstan

  5. Gubby-Allen
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Excellent. Four point gained the last minute.

    Just by four players staying the pitch for an hour.

    This worth a WC?

    Sanchez Dubravka
    Diouf Gabriel Esteve Porro De Cuyper
    Salah Semenyo Fernandes Rogers Wirtz
    J.Pedro Wood Guiu

    >>>>>>

    Verbruggen Dubravka
    Gabriel Senesi VDV Richards Reinildo
    Semenyo Palmer Foden Reijnders Stach
    Haaland Gyokeres J.Pedro

    If yes, would you take Stach out for 4.5 fodder and upgrade Verbruggen.

    1. Gubby-Allen
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Midfield seems worse. Rest of it fine

    2. Gubby-Allen
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I would find room for King and Grealish. Just over 11mill so easily done.

      1 year, 1 month ago

  9. Pep Roulette
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Ofcourse the least owned playing Palace defender scores a goal

  10. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Mitchell trolling Munoz owners 😀

  11. Kaneyonero
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Painful as a Munoz owner

    1. Gizzachance
      1 year, 1 month ago

  12. g40steve

  13. Yes Ndidi
    1 year, 1 month ago

    You know when the Angeball philosophy is starting to take shape when they concede to Burnley.

    1. Gizzachance
      1 year, 1 month ago

  14. Kaneyonero

    Wrong CPL defender getting the goal

  16. Royal5
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Xavi sitter

  17. #1 Arne Engels Fan
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Xavi looks such a threat since he's come on. Kudus robbed of a 2nd assist.

    1. Royal5
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Gakpo > Simons on the cards

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        1 year, 1 month ago

  19. chocolove
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Is Diouf the new Corner taker for west ham?

  20. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Time to sell Muñoz I think. For Senesi.

  21. All Hail K

    A Stach hatrick: goal, assist, defcon.

    1. Kaneyonero
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Stach of points

      1. All Hail K
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        1 year, 1 month ago

    2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      1 year, 1 month ago

      KDH to him seems an easy decision!

    3. chocolove
      1 year, 1 month ago

  22. Free Hat
    1 year, 1 month ago

    And I thought Munoz would be the best attacking cp defender...

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      1 year, 1 month ago

      He will be, over the season

  23. g40steve
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Xavi wasting chances

  24. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Mateta wants more

  25. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 year, 1 month ago

    2x defcon points today - Romero Ndiaye.

    Need to change mindset on WC?

  26. g40steve
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Kudus lays it on a plate for Xavi, reactions of a snail

  27. Gubby-Allen
    1 year, 1 month ago

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Porro > Romero + Johnson > Ndiaye for free?

      1. Zimo
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Ndiaye dropping in price tonight seems like. I'd hold off till at least tomorrow.

  28. Tonyawesome69
