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.

    3. Viper
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      It's different. Triple Brighton defence. Suddenly I feel better about just Ryan

        JLingz? Doesn't appeal to me much but seems the best option at that price

        1. @fpl_phenom

      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      next week bench boost week, but I have just
      Pope, Kenedy, Salah, Robertson on bench.
      Looks not worth the chip. :(((

    16. barcaa7
      • 7 Years

      Should i get rid of Gudm?

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

        No, wait for updates ahead of next week

    17. Salarrivederci
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Eriksen & Alli to outscore Kane & Son would be HUGE!

    18. barracuda
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Klopp just said that they should be all OK for Tuesday. I presume including Salah.

    19. balint84
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      sell Salah or DeBruyne next week? or save both?

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

        sell KDB for Sanchez or someone like that

        1. balint84
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          DeBruyne+Robertson
          to
          Sanchez+Long

          worth the -4?

    20. My Name Is Pepu
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Lukaku or Kane for the Double Gameweek?

      Lukaku has 2 juicy fixtures but how high is the ceiling for returns? And how motivated is Mourinho to thrash teams by a number of goals?

      Kane is a striker chasing the Golden Boot. We all know what he did towards the end of last season. Or is that a sample not enough to have him in our teams and trust him with the armband (apart from the fact that he's been scoring tons of goals season after season)? Yes, Spurs play Man City in one of the double gameweek fixtures. But that surely doesn't mean that Harold Kane won't nick one or two against them?

      Or we simply get both of them (and Vardy as the 3rd striker) and go for 2 sub-4.5m mids? Or is that a bit too much?

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

        lukaku

      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      DeBruyne+Robertson
      to

      worth the -4?
