The first Gameweek of the festive spell begins early, under the lights of the Emirates Stadium as Arsenal host Liverpool in one of the most anticipated fixtures of the season.

Certainly, based on previous meetings, our expectations are high, with Fantasy managers hoping for a goal-fest and points aplenty.

There’s a host of attacking players on show, with Mohamed Salah the key asset and headline act.

Fantasy Premier League’s most popular player is now part of 57.9% of squads and, having returned in nine of his last ten outings, will surely be fancied to inflict further damage on the Gunners. He produced a goal and an assist on his way to 11 points in the reverse fixture at Anfield.

Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino are also star turns who sparkled who both Gameweek 18. The pair arrive in north London on the back of double-figure scores with a goal and assist apiece in the 4-0 stroll at Bournemouth.

Sadio Mane completes the “fab four” attacking line-up for the visitors. Having been omitted from two of the last four teamsheets, the Senegalese is without a return since Gameweek 14.

Arsenal’s notable Fantasy assets are few and far between.

Indeed, one of their key figures is again on the bench tonight as concerns grow on the prospects of Sead Kolasinac. The Bosnian was in 863,000+ squads as recently as Gameweek 16. However, having sat out the last three outings, his stock and ownership is plummeting. FPL midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles is given the nod once again at left-back and will be tasked with containing Salah’s threat.
