The penultimate match of Gameweek 8 sees Liverpool take on Manchester United at Anfield.

Kick-off is at 16:30 BST.

TEAM NEWS

Arne Slot has named the same line-up that lost 2-1 at Chelsea prior to the international break.

Consequently, Alexander Isak starts ahead of Hugo Ekitike up front, while Florian Wirtz is once again named among the substitutes.

Elsewhere, Ibrahima Konate is fit enough to start at the back.

As for Man Utd, Harry Maguire and Matheus Cunha replace the benched Leny Yoro and Benjamin Sesko.

LINE-UPS

Liverpool XI: Mamardashvili, Bradley, Konate, van Dijk, Kerkez, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo, Isak

Subs: Woodman, Frimpong, Gomez, Robertson, Wirtz, Jones, Ekitike, Chiesa, Ngumoha

Manchester United XI: Lammens, de Ligt, Maguire, Shaw, Amad, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dalot, Mbeumo, Cunha, Mount

Subs: Bayindir, Dorgu, Mazraoui, Heaven, Yoro, Mainoo, Ugarte, Sesko, Zirkzee

So happy I've kept Mbuemo these past GWs, been so unfortunate not to haul couple of times, finally rewarded with a return.

Would you rather the bonus points on LiveFPL count from kick-off or from the 60th minute?

  Well actually - it's going to start counting from 45th minute or from when the first goal is scored. Just a heads-up...

  For someone with that price tag you surely need to see some double digit hauls before it’s even worth considering. Not a single one so far this season.

  Arsenal's next 3 fixtures are very favorable, a great chance to build a points gap to City and Liverpool before the harder fixtures start in November.

Thoughts on this WC team? Dont think Sanchez is worth the extra and cant afford him anyways

Roefs/Dubravka
Gabriel Timber Muñoz Senesi 4.0
Saka Sarr Ndiaye Semenyo 4.4
Haaland Mateta Woltemade

You could say its a weak bench but my first bench option is a proper rotating player like Senesi or Ndiaye
