Key FPL assets all start as Burnley face Liverpool

The eighth and final Premier League match of a busy Saturday kicks off at 17:30 BST, with Liverpool the visitors to Turf Moor.

The team news is very straightforward as there is just one change to the starting XIs in all: Aaron Lennon (£4.9m) replacing the injured Johann Berg Gudmundsson (£6.0m) on the right flank for Burnley.

Jurgen Klopp names the same 11 players who lined up for the victory over Arsenal last Saturday.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) is the second-most-captained player of Gameweek 4, having been handed the armband by over one million FPL managers.

Liverpool put seven goals past the Clarets in their two meetings last season, with Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) scoring three of them.

The Reds are yet to keep a clean sheet this season, while Sean Dyche’s side recorded a shut-out in their only previous home league game this season: against Southampton in Gameweek 1.

Ashley Barnes (£6.7m) has scored in each of his three league appearances this season and was bought by over 250,000 Fantasy bosses in the build-up to Gameweek 4.

Liverpool’s Andrew Robertson (£6.9m) was the second-most-sold defender of this current Gameweek, having been offloaded by over 190,000 FPL managers.

Burnley XI: Pope; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Pieters, Lennon, Cork, Westwood, McNeil, Barnes, Wood.

Liverpool XI: Adrían; Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Matip, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Salah, Mané, Firmino.

    City vs LFC. How many more years before other English clubs step up to challenge for the PL title?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      If United stay up this season, they might get close next year.

      1. Bartowski
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        That's a big if...

    2. Supersonic Marv'
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Both Klopp and Pep will probably leave in the next 3 years.

    3. Nightcrawler
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      We(united) our building a more than decent squad. Maybe 1 or 2 years before we become title challengers again

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 11 Years

      2. Bartowski

  20. Nightcrawler
    • 4 Years

    Salah selfishness is why he's jot in the same level as like of KDB Aguero and Kane. Play for the team not the records

    • 11 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Did Pope not get that save point?
