The Gameweek begins within the cauldron of Goodison Park and a Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool.

From a Fantasy perspective, the main interest surrounds absent friends as Mohamed Salah misses out with a groin injury and Roberto Firmino is rested to the bench.

That pair are the two most-owned players in Fantasy Premier League, though they were also the most sold ahead of today’s deadline.

Even with those sales, over 1.9 million managers still own both Salah and Firmino and will now be looking to their bench for reinforcement.

Liverpool make five changes in all, with Andrew Robertson another to miss out. A calf problem puts pay to the left-back who, like Salah, goes into Tuesday’s Champions League second leg with Manchester City as a doubt.

Robertson was brought in by 61,000+ managers ahead of Gameweek 32, making him the third-most bought defender last time out.

Sadio Mane does start for the visitors and will go in search of his sixth successive return having produced three goals and three assists over his last five Gameweeks.

As for Everton, they make just one change, though Fantasy interest in their line-up is much reduced following the blanks of Gameweek 31. Wayne Rooney (10.1%) remains their most owned player, with Jordan Pickford (7.9%) likely to be the most popular among active squads.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Bolasie just spent 60mins reminding us he's a non-league footballer

      Created the most interesting moment of the game though

    I noticed a post a few pages back that mentioned Auba out - please tell me that's a load of bolx, otherwise I don't have a captain.

      I'm sure it's nonsence designed to get a reaction

        😮 😛

        The irony in this post is too much

      You didn't give Salah c or v did you?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        I’ve noticed that if you stay logged into FPL for a long time, which I do, then occasionally changes don’t get made – almost as though the session was not active. After the update I found a legacy Salah©, Auba(vc) from last week

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          That's strange. I can't say that's ever happened to me. Might be worth clearing your cache and double checking your team on a 2nd device each week. Bit of a hassle though.

            • 14 Years

            Cheers - I will check more carefully in future.

      If you haven't seen multiple people panic then it's probably not true

    Come on Everton

    Destroy that Liverpool cs

    1. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Asking a lot

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      The only thing Everton destroy is good football.

  4. FlockofSeagulls
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Didn't think it was possible but I've managed to squeeze Sanchez, Hazard, Eriksen, Vardy, Kane, Alonso and Davies into my team for the double.

    I'll take that, although not confident Davies will play both.

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Perfectly possible

    2. Point-one short
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      What's your full team?

      1. FlockofSeagulls
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Barnes, Mili, Kenedy, Kiko, Daniels and Baur make up the rest.

    3. BIGREDDOG
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Neither will Alonso or Hazard but I have the latter so I'm hoping he returns points

      1. FlockofSeagulls
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Why not Alonso and Hazard?

    4. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Hazard?

    5. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Must have a pound shop defence then

      1. FlockofSeagulls
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Alonso, Davies, kiko, Daniels and Baur. Not great but I'm confident Alonso and Davies will return the faith soon.

    6. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Sounds like Vile Ranks team.

    7. LÖrKingMuch
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      You sold Salah?

      1. FlockofSeagulls
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Yep. For Hazard. Easy buy back if needed.

        1. LÖrKingMuch
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Fair enough. I bought at 9mil, keeping therefore.

  5. VDiesel26
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    BB34 FT35 TC37 £2.8m ITB and 2 FT

    DDG Ryan
    Alonso Morgan Mustafi* Tarkowski Lowton
    Willian Son Mahrez Gross Salah
    Auba* Vardy Barnes

    Thinking of Swapping Auba to Kane for 34 and then Vardy to Auba in 36? This is hoping that Salah plays midweek (And therefore more likely to play again at weekend)

    1) Auba + Mustafi to Kane + Who? (6M to spend)
    2) Other ideas?

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Your in a strong position I think so long as Kane does not hurt you this week

      Your plan sounds pretty good. I'd pick a utd defender for that last spot

  6. Dannyb
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Bottomed
    Should I tc Sanchez 34 and bb in 37 with this team. Could use transfers to swap out Burnley for Swansea etc.
    Ddg (Ryan)
    Alonso Christensen Dunk (Tark Morgan)
    Sanchez Mahrez(c) Willian Gro€ (Gudm)
    Lukaku Auba Barnes

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      No, think you're so set for bb34 itd be a waste of transfers

    2. InSaneMan-e
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      It's just a bit risky
      He's ceiling for points is high I won't doubt it. But I feel it's still a bit risky

  7. Rik Waller

    This game defo needs a bit of Bobby

    1. Sánchez
      • 13 Years

  8. InSaneMan-e

    Wow. 3 people above me in mini leagues have got captain and vc on salah and firmino. Epic.

    1. SSJTevez
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      You must be a terrible player

      1. BIGREDDOG
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Necessary? Salty

      2. InSaneMan-e
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Haha
        No they all realized salah wouldn't play but seemed assured of firmino starting

    2. BIGREDDOG
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Me too. Awesome.

    3. Rash
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Shouldn't be above for long with those moves

    4. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I wouldn't admit that

  9. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone who achieved returns from Everton players this year deserves respect. I got jack from any if I recall.

      Thanks, much appreciated!

      Tosun captain got me 26 one of the weeks
      Other than that walcott/holgate failed
      Kenny was ok a few months back too

      1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Ouch. That Tosun captain must have hurt when you saw Salahs score...

        1. InSaneMan-e
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Your right
          Sorry 13 points

  10. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    No need to risk Firmino Klopp, he could get injured

    1. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      This.....better to bring on Ox or TAA...

    2. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Wait till the 89th

  11. Fuchs Mane Kante

  12. @fpl_phenom
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Just thinking of going without Kane and bringing in Vardy instead... allows me this team for GW34 BB .....

    15 dgw'ers and also Sanchez captain!

    DDG Ryan
    Christensen Alonso Morgan Tarkowski Lowton
    Sanchez Mahrez Son Willian Gross
    Lukaku Vardy Barnes

    1. Jebiga
      • 13 Years

        DDG Ryan
        Christensen Alonso Morgan Tarkowski Lowton
        Salah Mahrez Lingard Willian Gross
        Lukaku Kane Barnes

      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      You know the risks mate
      Kane does have city for 1 of them but at Wembley would you get against him scoring?

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        would you bet against Vardy scoring v burnley and southampton ..... ?

        I really should just get kane as my rival in 2nd in my mini league got him this week and im only 40 points ahead of him...

          I thought things were looking up for Barnsley, but I've only just realised Blues have won 3 games in a row. Barnsley are in the sh*t.

            Unfortunately I can't see them staying up. Sad really - they are a very likeable club.
