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.

    4pts. hit to bring in Firmino for Deeney didn't quite worked out lol

    1. The Senate
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Deeney misses GW36 as well, the playing points alone pay back that hit

  2. Whats the Huth

    5 years, 3 days ago

    Hoping for a hazard no show. Bennett laughing at me on the bench.
    Digne is 3rd in my bench.
    Bench boost indeed a wonderful chance this week. Unfortunately not used it yet

  3. Gringo Kid

    KDB and Lacca to Mane and Firmino?

    If I add Salah 6.4 is max for 3rd striker

    How many times has benzema single handedly resqued madrid this season? Rest of them are dead.

    1. Marvin Moon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Big rebuild in the summer for them.

      1. Klein
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Some big names to be replaced. Have no idea who zidane can remove really

        1. Marvin Moon
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          He doesn't want Bale it seems.

  5. FPL Maldini
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Is there a chance that Laca will get a rest next game considering he played 90 and Auba got the goal?

    1. TallestJohn
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      We need the win so I imagine he'll get some minutes but Emery could decide to go with Mkhi/Iwobi instead. It'll be tactical rather than about managing Laca's minutes.

    2. Klein
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      With the form laca is in wont be surprisef if emery gives him a couple of weeks on bench.

    Which United player will gift City the winner on Wednesday?

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      All 11 of them

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Hope to see a lot of fringe players. Darmian, Rojo, Bailly, Mata etc. They need game time

    2. Srv210
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      The way they played today, it's are up for a battering against city if they don't improve

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Lol
        Don't expect any improvement 😀

        1. Srv210
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          I hope they improve, I'm scared as didn't capta8n city players 🙁

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 3 days ago

            😀
            At least i have Raz © as consolation

  7. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    So basically Salah dived for a few $ more

    1. Marvin Moon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      It was a penalty.

      1. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        I didn’t see it

        Just going on previous 😉

    2. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Bad defending, but was a dive. Gave him the opportunity and he fell over.

    3. Tempestic
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      It was definitely a pen, yes he went to ground but that's what you have to do to get a pen nowadays.

  8. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Did kolasinac do anything?

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Had a dump at 10am

    2. TallestJohn
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Game didn't suit him, Palace sat deep after early goal so not much room for him to cross. A bit more space in the second half but poor delivery and AMN allowed us to attack more down the right as well.

      1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Cheers for this. Doubt he'll end up playing against Wolves anyway 🙁

  9. Amey
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    So what do we think about Taa game time next gw's ??
    Weird to ask as he scored 11 i know but few here saying Gomez may get a start. ?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Will play all bar maybe one?

      Huddlesfield could be the one he misses since Gomez subbed on in his position. Perfect game to get up to speed for Gomez.

      Also gives a rest to TAA before UCL, who didn't actually start this game very well.

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        That's my worry mate 🙁
        Have Taa Robbo Firmino.

        Can get Mane for KDB by binning Taa. That's why I'm interested in it.

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          I mean, KDB has to go though doesn't he?

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 3 days ago

            Definitely.
            Can get Mane OR go for Bilva/other player.

      2. Mysterion
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Think Newcastle is the one which is more at risk for him, given the quick turnaround

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          Possibly, but Newcastle is a much, much tougher game on paper. They've been good recently and Rafa is no fool.

          1. Mysterion
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 3 days ago

            Definitely the tougher game... Gomez should be good to go by then to stop Almiron on the counter 😛

            1. Amey
              • 5 Years
              5 years, 3 days ago

              Ha ha
              Good point.

        2. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          This can be handled.
          Don't wanna miss out on 3 rd pool player against Hudds

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      how many games do people need him to start before we stop asking this question

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        3 more 😉

      2. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        He is one of Pools youngest players he does not need a rest.

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          You'd keep then.
          Thank you 🙂

    3. Srv210
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Trent is playing so well I don't klopp will risk it at such a crucial stage...maybe shaRed minutes for Gomez as a CB & RB

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Thank you mate 🙂
        © Choice for me ahead of Firmino 😀
        If he doesn't start, I'm screwed !

        1. Srv210
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          If you want security of starts then maybe go robbo?

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 3 days ago

            Taa Robbo Firmino atm in the team bro

            1. Srv210
              • 6 Years
              5 years, 3 days ago

              Robbo (C) instead of TAA(C) will be more secure IMO..I'm also thinking of going robbo instead of attacker...mane,TAA,robbo for me maybe

              1. Amey
                • 5 Years
                5 years, 3 days ago

                😮
                Cheers mate.
                This is easy for me to get

    4. Mysterion
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Keep him and keep hoping for post-60' subs 😉

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        That'd be great 😉
        Cheers mate

    5. Tempestic
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      I reckon Gomez might get a start vs Hudders I just don't know whether it'll be at CB or RB

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Cheers mate
        I'm scared. Don't want third pool spot to go wasted so ...

      2. Gegenpress
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        He’ll start RB - Matip has a quality game CB. Perfect time to rest TAA and I think Gomez will play well RB also means Robbo can push up further on the other side! Milner / Fab to maybe come in for either hendo or wij or both?

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          😮
          It's complicated !

  10. BeDreamin

    No player in the history of my FF life has trolled me more than Trippier has this season

    1. Sailboats
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      You forgot about Gabbiadini

    2. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Obviously never owned Sanchez

  11. Sailboats
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Who to play for the upcoming GK?

    1- Ryan
    2- Patricio

    I will be playing duffy, have no wolves defender

  12. Saxe-Gotha
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Vidic would have sacrificed his face to stop that Richarlison goal.

    1. Marvin Moon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      But unfair to expect Vidic to still be saving Utd.

    2. Marvin Moon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Sorry I totally misread this post.

      1. Saxe-Gotha
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        No problem. I was actually just getting ready to reply "Maybe you missed the point?" The desire just isn't there with these players.

        1. GreennRed
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          I blame Netflix.

          BN, Before Netlix. When men were men.

          AN. Did you see The Ozark? My agent told me to pace myself for my social media 'engagements'. You just can't get good avacados anymore.....

    3. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Not many Vidic's round any more unfortunately. Proper centre backs who did what it took to stop the opponent scoring.

      1. Saxe-Gotha
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Indeed.

  13. Tev
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Anyone know the top 10k average players left? Midweek should be a massive differentiator between the planners and non-planners. Should.

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      12 players left, which assumes captains count double.

      1. Tev
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Ideal mate cheers. That’s a huge number!

    2. Tempestic
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Just looked on FPL Discovery and it says that an average of 12.5 players have started out of 11... very useful 😛

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Bench boost

      2. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        FPL Discovery counts players after they have played their first game in a DGW.

        LiveFPL only counts players after they have played their second game in a DGW.

    3. Ragabolly

      Average Players Played: 3.11 out of 14.78

      1. Ragabolly
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        14.78 is counting captains as the 12th player + the bench boost players

        1. Tev
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          Astoundingly high number, though I’d suggest the numbers for top 200k would be less eyes watering- this is the elite we’re talking about.

          1. Ragabolly
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 3 days ago

            Yeah, the average remaining players in top10k is 11.6 while it's 7.6 overall. If you got a full DGW bench boost, then you have 16 remaining.

      2. Tev
        • 6 Years

        Cheers Ragabolly. Awesome website!

      Bench boost I hope?

        Fortunately, yes.

  15. diesel001
    • 7 Years

    Wednesday night going to be interesting. Pogba needs to be let loose. Other players need to do his defensive work for him and he needs to boss it.

      From your lips to Solly's ears I hope ...

  16. Hazz

    Can do Eriksen > Mané for a straight swap this week, huh.

    Will sit tight and decide later. Shame West Ham are equally as porous.

    1. DR0GBA
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      this is the transfer i'm probably doing this week, would prefer Salah but can't get him in without destroying my team

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        I have Salah already. No TC chip left so feel I may need to cover both by doubling up!

  17. Champions united
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    So it better to go double liv def than attack

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      For most weeks yes. Next GW maybe less so...

      (But they'll probably still get attacking returns.)

    2. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      That’s what I had but next game I want double attack

  18. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Before this gameweek I was thinking of not using the BB and taking no hits.
    But I was not bothered to try and work out which players to get for a gw36 bench boost.
    instead I took a minus 8
    sigurdsson out salah in
    deeney out gray in
    Duffy out Boly in

    Which was a disaster obviously.
    But when I look back further I was better off not wildcarding in gw34 at all.
    I know there are many in the same boat because of a number of surprise recent results Fulham, Palace, Huddersfield and Everton.
    Throwing in rotation the whole thing has been all over the place.

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years

      And Meath are gonna win Leinster to compound the misery 😉

      1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        haha yeah and then Kerry will knock us out in the qualifiers
        (the ultimate nightmare) 😀
        I think a Mayo fella like yourself should be more worried about Galway.

        1. GreennRed
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          Apparently Clifford's 'fame' is causing trouble in the Kerry camp. Worried about Roscommon for now. We've had an advantage because we're training since October. I think the Dubs need a few tight games in Leinster but it looks unlikely. O'Carroll and Connolly prob back so can't see anyone beating them. Not just football wise their mental strength and closing out games is phenomenal.

          1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 2 days ago

            That would be good news if the Clifford rumours are true.
            It would be a right sicknener if Kerry knock Dublin out would never hear the end of it.
            Dublin were not very convincing in the league except against the current league champions.
            And the simple tactic of the high ball seems to really unsettle the defence.
            I am glad the mark won't be used in the championship that's for sure.

    Talk about treading water

    10 green arrows in 14 weeks and my rank has hardly moved

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Better than reds

    2. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Been difficult to gain rank this season IMO.

      Free Hit helped me out in GW32 and owning some good players for the BGW31 and BGW33, but other than that it has been trading water for a while.

      A. Gomez on Pool bench today, if he plays will prob be CB but keep an eye on Arnold time.

        He did sub on for Trent, however.

        1. GreennRed
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          For me he's more needed at CB if he gets much gametime at all, takes a while to get matchfit. A better defender than Arnold bud Arnold's in great form and tireless and quality down the wing, great cross on him too.

      Jimenez, Laporte, Salah over Kun, Lindelof, Mane in A not possible?

    How likely are the following players to start midweek do you think?

    Lacazette
    Valery
    Lloris
    Kolasinac
    Sterling

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Valery has the lowest chance. Rest are decent.

    2. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      I see no point in these questions

      What will be will be

    3. Emp

      65%

    4. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      All will start. Kola lowest % imo.

  22. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    I guess a very small red arrow after a -8 with 11 left to play isn’t all that shabby

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      -12 here with a green! A very small green though 🙂

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        You're also on BB mate ?

        1. Syd.
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          Correct

  23. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    TAA nearly making BB a mild success.
    Looking forward to the Hazard Monday night show tomorrow now!

  24. Rash
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Scores on the doors?

    49 -4 here

    1. DR0GBA
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      59 (-4)

      Hoping for a Hazard and Son masterclass

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      50 (-4)

      A lot of decisions have marginally fallen the wrong way so far, but roll on the next lot of games.

    3. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      More but still not great

    4. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      64(-4) BB assuming TAA gets 2 bonus

    5. FFSbet.com
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      49,just hope Lloris and Valery start next game.

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Yep
        Southampton Watford 0-0 can be great for me

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          Everyone wants that, which means it definitely won't happen :/

          1. Ginkapo FPL
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 3 days ago

            Nah, Valery hattrick suits me just fine

          2. Amey
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 3 days ago

            😀

    11. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      59 with 12 to play. KdB crocked 🙂

      1. Tev
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        KDB injury is so gutting, he was starting to look incredible, had high hopes for this week. Just lucky I didn’t captain.

        1. shirtless
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          Yeah a real shame. I don't think he's ever going to be the same player again.

    12. Tev
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      79

      Lucky week for me.

    13. Root
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      69 with 15 to play.

    14. The Red Devil
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Slightly more, but have valery, kdb & Sterling captain

    15. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      59 with 13.25 left to play (unless Success starts then 14 still to play)

    16. Limited & Mediocre Mana…

      84

      1. Eddie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

        Deulofeu coming through for you. Nice looking rank he's got you too.

      2. TLF
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Really nice score and OR, well played. That makes up for the Vardy captaincy disappointment last week 🙂

    17. The Senate
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      bench boost 65 -8. No Sterling so dreading him tearing us a new one on Wednesday

  25. JELLYFISH
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Best pool def to pair up with TAA? Assume Robbo, but VVD goal threat is so tempting for Huddersfield

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      Honestly, VVD has been edging it lately.

  26. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 days ago

    Time for an overhaul of the BPS system imo. Anyone with a decent set of eyes could see that TAA was put on his backside numerous times by Mendez-Laing throughout the game, who had him beat all match. Didn’t defend well whatsoever.

    In the same way that shots off target / big chances missed affect attacking players, defending poorly should affect defenders.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      They normally get subbed off before 60.

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Making an error which leads to a goal -3
        Making an error which leads to an attempt at goal -1
        Conceding a foul -1

        1. Ginkapo FPL
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          In short, you cant be penalised for making errors against Cardiff.

        2. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          This stat is worrying 😮

        3. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          So nothing for getting dribbled past? Regardless of whether a chance was created - Cardiff got at least 3/4 crosses into the box which wouldn’t have happened if he hadn’t been skinned 1v1, which his fellow defenders had to mop up for him!

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 3 days ago

            Slow defenders would be penalised too much.

    2. Syd.
      • 14 Years

      Current system is still better than the old man in the stand

      1. Eddie

        I miss that old geezer.

  27. The Royal Robin

    A) Pereira > Laporte
    B) Kola > Laporte
    C) Eriksen > B.Silva
    D) Eriksen > Babel (£6.1m itb)

    2. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 days ago

      What you gonna do with all that change in the bank?

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 days ago

        Consider my options. I could upgrade my forward line of Jiminez - Wilson - Rondon

        1. Eddie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 3 days ago

          Unless you have a plan for the cash I would avoid, it's obviously a downgrade. How many more games you going to wait and decide what to do with the money? Time is running out. I like BSilva option, especially now KDB out. But A seems by far the biggest upgrade.

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      A - not sure why you would want to get rid Eriksen or Kola
