Aubameyang and Lacazette paired up front as Ozil returns

Two Premier League matches kick off at 16:00 BST on Sunday afternoon.

Arsenal play the first of two Double Gameweek 35 fixtures, with Crystal Palace the visitors to the Emirates.

Liverpool, meanwhile, are in action against a Cardiff City side that has lost all ten of their meetings with “big six” sides in 2018/19.

There are no great shocks in Jurgen Klopp’s starting XI, with their most-popular Fantasy assets all in the visitors’ line-up.

Andrew Robertson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joel Matip and Virgil van Dijk make up a familiar-looking back four, while Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah are once again selected up front.

Georginio Wijnaldum for Fabinho is Klopp’s only alteration from Gameweek 34.

Neil Warnock has named an unchanged team for the visit of Liverpool.

Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang are included in the same starting XI for only the second time in nine Premier League games.

Aaron Ramsey misses out with a hamstring injury so Mesut Ozil lines up in “the hole” behind Arsenal’s strike pair.

Sead Kolasinac is also included as Emery rolls out a 3-4-1-2, with Carl Jenkinson getting a rare start on the opposite flank.

Patrick van Aanholt, Andros Townsend and Michy Batshuayi are among the substitutes for Palace, with Joel Ward handed a recall at full-back.

Arsenal XI (3-4-1-2): Leno, Mustafi, Koscielny, Mavropanos, Jenkinson, Guendouzi, Elneny, Kolasinac, Özil, Lacazette, Aubameyang.

Crystal Palace XI (4-4-2): Guaita, Ward, Kelly, Dann, Wan-Bissaka, McArthur, Milivojevic, Kouyaté, Meyer, Zaha, Benteke.

Cardiff City XI (4-2-3-1): Etheridge, Peltier, Morrison, Ecuele Manga, Bennett, Gunnarsson, Ralls, Hoilett, Camarasa, Mendez-Laing, Niasse.

Liverpool XI (4-3-3): Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Wijnaldum, Henderson, Keita, Mane, Salah, Firmino.

    TAA been crap today.

    Robbo over TAA on WC was a big mistake. Hauls for my mini league rivals again.

  19. fedolefan

    Robbo goes from being by far the best Pool defensive asset to by far the third best Pool defensive asset. Well, maybe even fourth best behind TAA, VVD and Alisson.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Possibly. Still great, not getting as many returns unfortunately...

    2. Mysterion
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 days ago

      Second best at worst

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 days ago

        I do think VVD is a tad better of late

        1. Mysterion
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 5 days ago

          Fair enough, I meant over the season...

      2. Mysterion
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 days ago

        Best at best because of TAA's injury issues

  20. tm245

    What is the highest 2nd place finish in the PL? Have there been two 90 point teams before?

    1. tambourineman
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 days ago

      Man Utd 89 in 2011-12

      United and City in 11-12 were quite high. About 90.

    Hoilet SoT saved by Alisson.

  25. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 days ago

    If Robbo would like to get involved that'd be grand

  26. The Wise Owl
    • 8 Years

    Dunk to Kola was stupid

    Triple Brighton defence was essential.

      Double Saints worse.
