Salah starts for Liverpool as Firmino benched and Mané misses out

Mohamed Salah (£12.8m) came through his international break injury scare to start for Liverpool at Huddersfield.

The Egyptian was named in the starting line-up alongside Virgil van Dijk (£5.9m) and James Milner (£5.7m) who were also passed fit after recent knocks.

Salah was sold by over 350,000 Fantasy managers ahead of Gameweek 9. He is without a goal involvement since Gameweek 6 but does face a very favourable fixture today.

However, Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) dropped to the bench and Sadio Mané (£9.8m) missed out on the matchday squad altogether following a thumb injury.

Daniel Sturridge (£5.8m) and Xherdan Shaqiri (£7.0m) come in for the pair, both of whom could prove interesting differentials if they look likely to feature more often in the Premier League.

Interest in Huddersfield options remains minimal, with substitute Ben Hamer (£4.0m) their most popular asset (7.9%).

Huddersfield Town XI: Lössl; Zanka, Schindler, Löwe; Hadergjonaj, Mooy, Hogg(C), Billing, Durm; Pritchard; Depoitre

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Gomez, Lovren, Van Dijk, Robertson, Milner, Henderson, Lallana, Shaqiri, Salah, Sturridge
