The case for Firmino in a Liverpool triple-up for Double Gameweek 24

Fantasy Premier League managers should consider Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) as Double Gameweek 24 edges closer.

That’s when Liverpool play two fixtures in one Gameweek, travelling to Wolves and West Ham in the space of six days – and many of us are still working out which type of triple-up to invest in.

Going into Gameweek 23, the worldwide ownership figures tell us that the offensive and defensive double-ups are likely to be given equal consideration at this stage:

  • Virgil van Dijk (£6.4m): 40.1%
  • Sadio Mané (£12.4m): 40.0%
  • Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.5m): 38.8%
  • Mohamed Salah (£12.3m): 25.4%
  • Andrew Robertson (£7.0m): 19.6%

The two prevailing options in the FPL community thus far are a Mané/Salah double-up or one involving both Alexander-Arnold and Robertson.

However, sitting at just 9.6% ownership, Firmino should not be overlooked as an alternative route into a Liverpool triple-up.

In this article, we are going to analyse the Brazilian’s underlying data from recent matches and compare him against other Liverpool options.

As this uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those with Membership can access it in full.

Do Liverpool’s fixtures warrant an attacking double-up?

Before comparing Liverpool’s attacking assets, it seems wise to examine the defensive data of their Double Gameweek opponents, if nothing else, to check that they are as brittle at the back as we need them to be.

As both Wolves and West Ham will be playing at home in Double Gameweek 24, we have assessed them over their last four matches played in front of their own fans.

Last four home matches

As you can see, we get quite mixed results from the two teams.

West Ham look considerably more vulnerable to Liverpool’s attack as they have conceded 30 shots in the box over their last four at home, only five sides shipping more efforts there.

However, by comparison, Wolves have allowed just 18 shots in their home penalty box over the same period, one fewer than Liverpool and bettered only Sheffield United (16) and Manchester United (13).

Last four home matches

When it comes to the quality of chances being given up by either defence, the gap is even bigger.

As you can see, only Aston Villa (17) have conceded more big chances in their last four at home than West Ham (13).

As for Wolves, their five big chances conceded is the third-best in the league and bettered only by Southampton (three) and Manchester United (two).

However, the expected data for Wolves’ last four home matches shows they should have conceded 3.12 goals but, let in five. Across the whole season, their expected goals conceded (xGC) figure sits at 25.31 but Nuno Espirito Santo’s men have actually let in 28.

That may be why Wolves have only kept two clean sheets from a possible 11 at Molineux.

This data seems to be consistent with the theory that Wolves are continuing to earn their reputation for clean sheet ‘nearly men’ i.e. a team that often boasts decent defensive figures but has a hard time converting these into concrete shutouts.

Furthermore, in four home matches against last season’s top-six in 2019/20, Nuno Espirito Santo’s men have conceded 10 times.

It, therefore, seems likely that Liverpool will find a way to break through Wolves’ defence in Double Gameweek 24, even if they may not thrash them, which seems a fate they may spare for West Ham.

The Hammers may be in the early stages of a new (or perhaps, we should say ‘returning’) manager but, based on recent performances, they may have to work miracles to improve in time to face Liverpool, especially with their goalkeeper situation so uncertain.

Either way, it looks unlikely that West Ham will make life too difficult for Liverpool in Double Gameweek 24, especially as the Reds have scored four times in two of their last three Premier League visits to east London.

How does Firmino compare with his colleagues?

In short, the answer is very favourably.

For some time now, Firmino’s underlying statistics have been competing very nicely with both Salah and Mané which should turn the heads of Fantasy managers considering his cost.

We’ll start by looking at how Firmino has fared over the last four Gameweeks.

Last four matches

During this time, the Brazilian has shot 13 times in the box, more than any of his colleagues.

In fact, during this period, Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.9m), Danny Ings (£6.8m) and Gabriel Jesus (£9.5m) are the only players in the whole of the Premier League to have registered more efforts inside the penalty area.

As you can see, during this period, Mané has managed 11 penalty box shots in 339 minutes while Salah has just nine in 338.

Last four matches

Firmino has also been in a favourable position when it comes to the quality of his chances since Gameweek 19 too.

The five big chances he has been afforded in this time is the joint-best among Liverpool players, level with Mané and three more than Salah.

Furthermore, this total is the joint-second-best in the Premier League, only Jesus (nine) handed more big chances in his last four outings than Firmino.

Last four matches

Mané is the most accurate of the Liverpool options over their last four matches, registering six shots on target.

However, Firmino is only one behind the Senegalese international with five of his own, the same as Salah.

How does Firmino look on the road?

While the Brazilian has compared very favourably with his colleagues over the last four matches, he really comes into his own when we change the parameters to last four away matches.

It is a well-documented and bizarre fact that Firmino is yet to score a Premier League goal at Anfield this season.

However, he has still been finding the net on his travels, all seven of his league goals coming away from home – particularly pertinent considering that both of Liverpool’s Double Gameweek 24 fixtures are on the road.

Last four away matches

With the filter switched to last four away matches, Firmino goes further clear of his team-mates when it comes to the above goal threat statistics.

During this period, he has registered 13 shots in the box, six big chances and seven efforts on target. He has been converting too, scoring four goals in these matches, more than any other colleague.

Meanwhile, Mané has 11 in the box, four big chances and six shots on target and Salah sits further below that on 11 shots in the box, two big chances and five shots on target.

Last four away matches

When it comes to creativity, there is more parity between each member of Liverpool’s front-three during this period.

Over their last four away matches, Firmino, Mané and Salah have each played eight key passes, although the latter is the leader for big chances created (three).

Last four away matches

The expected data combines all of that information to tell us just how much consideration Firmino deserves compared to his colleagues.

Over the last four away matches, Mané has the best minutes per expected goal involvement (xGI) with a score of 108.3 but Firmino is not too far behind on 117.7.

That figure is good enough for him to be just ahead of Salah on 119.8.

Conclusion

Firmino stands every chance of matching Salah and Mané’s output in Double Gameweek 24.

With Wolves and West Ham looking likely to concede in their meetings with Liverpool, Firmino’s recent performances indicate he can be involved in making that happen.

Both over the last four matches and his last four away trips especially, the Brazilian has produced some incredibly encouraging underlying statistics.

For example, it looks as if he is just as likely to assist as Mané and more likely to score than Salah based on the numbers we have seen.

It must be said that the gap between Firmino and his two attacking colleagues is not necessarily that huge, especially as his goals are worth one less point and he cannot benefit from clean sheets either.

Therefore, it’s hard to say that he is necessarily the vastly better option regardless of cost.

However, Firmino’s valuation, at present roughly £3.0m lower than Salah or Mané’s, is the key factor here.

With the ownership figures of Salah and Mané somewhat intimidating, some Fantasy managers may feel the pressure to put their teams under major surgery to get both of them in.

Naturally, this will almost certainly result in some hits to accommodate the swapping of premium options and may, of course, mean sacrificing Kevin De Bruyne (£10.7m), who has averaged 8.8 points over the last six Gameweeks.

However, with Firmino offering an opportunity to match his more expensive colleagues, he presents a less painful route into a Liverpool attacking double-up.

For example, those in possession of Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) and some cash in the bank may find Double Gameweek 24 an ideal time to upgrade to Firmino – as Chelsea face a resurgent Arsenal, Leicester, Manchester United and Spurs between then and Gameweek 27.

Crucially, if opting for Firmino over Salah or Mané allows Fantasy managers to avoid a hit for Double Gameweek 24, when hits may well be quite common, it could even put them in an advantageous position before a ball has even been kicked.

    How does this sound?

    Tomori > Trent
    Alli > Son
    Rash > Maupay
    For a -4

    Don't really want to lose Rash but really want Trent and Son.

      rashford out - no from me

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Why Son over Rash? Didn't Moura play up front last week?

      1. mcsteely
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Fair question. Son looks like their most attacking option and is always looking to score, even with Moura on the pitch (who is also a good option)

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Rather have Rash. Looks to me like Spurs have gone through all 5 stages of Mourinho in record time.

      Do you have another playing keeper? If not then do it.

  3. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Maddison to Mahrez for free?

    Have Vardy still. Gives a mid of KDb Mahrez Mane Sane

    1. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Salah not Sane (though he is back in training!!!)

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Mahrez more fun and gives you ludicrous MF.

    Is this a silly hit to take this week to free up the funds I need for next week?

    Guaita & Targett -> McCarthy & Williams

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      If you need the money to get treble Liv then yeah, might as well do it now.

      Good squad. I'd do Button to Martin as he could play dgw

          Although 0.1 short I guess!

          1. Pukki Party
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Damn, thought Martin was 4.0 still.. Kelly to Lascelles an option if you think it's an improvement.

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Kelly to Williams as final def?

  6. Pukki Party
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    A) Mane, DCl, Egan
    B) Ings, Son, VVD

    Am i right thinking A could outscore B gw24, but if i want to improve my squad long term i should go B?

    Cheers

    1. Bucket Man
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      My dilema as well. B long term A GW24

      1. Pukki Party
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I'm provably going B, i have focused too much on dgw:s before and ignored in form players with single gameweek fixtures.

        1. pitstop1
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          You’re probably right but the only one of those players who could go nuts over the next few weeks is Mane...

          1. Pukki Party
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            True, feel like A is two downgrades and one upgrade. B for me would be 3 upgrades. Son against Norwich could go nuts too.

            1. pitstop1
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              That’s true - I’ve sacrificed all Spurs to go Salah and Mane which could be unwise.

        2. Bucket Man
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Good point, good games for Rash and Maddison etc GW24 as well. I've a few options below what do you think?

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Did I say B yesterday?

      1. Pukki Party
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yes, option B above was option A yesterday though. Just checking if you're awake.

  7. Goat
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Start one please:
    A) Gomez (MUN)
    B) Lundstram (ars)

    After typing it out it seems A is obvious. Interested to know others thoughts? Cheers.

    1. Bucket Man
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Be tempted by B if you have TAA/Robbo

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B. Attacking mid against an Aubaless Arsenal

      1. BNMC
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        ARS being Aubaless doesn't necessarily mean SHU will score more goals.

        1. jimbo90
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          No but it means SHU could concede less

    3. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Joseph Dave Gomez. 0 - 0?

  8. BNMC
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Playing Cantwell is so tempting this week with BOU's poor defense as of late. Though they could be better with Ake back.

    Does he warrant a start over Alli or Grealish?

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I wouldn’t start him over those two tbh

  9. The Wanton Trader
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Wildcard active....!!

    Krul
    VVD / AMN / Aurier
    Mane / Richarlison / Martial / Grealish
    Vardy / Aguero(c) / Firmino

    McCarthy / Dendonk / Lord / Williams

    What do we think...??

    Seems pretty future proofed to me...

    1. jayzico
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I'd rather have Mahrez or Sarr than Martial

      1. The Wanton Trader
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Could do
        Martial > Sarr
        VVD > TAA...

    2. danlynch13
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Trent

    3. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      WC to this? Kevin in Kun out for starters and do something with extra funds.

      1. The Wanton Trader
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Quite hoping Kun gets a bit of run now.
        Was one of the reasons I activated wildcard...

    4. Nailed Jesus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Would rather have Trent & Ings in for Vardy if you want a non-template team.

      1. The Wanton Trader
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Was thinking about ditching Vardy, but don’t feel completely comfortable about it.

        1. Nailed Jesus
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Trent more essential than Vardy imo. Ings is great value

          1. The Wanton Trader
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Agree about Ings.
            He is amazing value...

        2. The Wanton Trader
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I think it’s non template enough...

          1. Nailed Jesus
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            I know, but I were to go non-template I'd stick with TAA, KDB, Ings and fill the rest with differentials...

            1. The Wanton Trader
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Mmmm...
              Food for thought.

  10. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Selling Maddison 🙁 to accomodate Jimenez Rico to Ings Robbo for a hit.
    Who would you sell him for and why?

    A) Sarr
    B) Grealish
    C) Doucoure
    D) Trossard
    E) other

    1. danlynch13
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Trossard think he could reward you

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, chucked him in due to fixtures mainly. Not sure how he’s looked recently

    2. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        That seems a popular consensus, yep. Is he a trap though? Heard he doesn’t look all that

        1. Pukki Party
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          No idea but i like the Watford form as a team at the moment

          1. Top Lad Dakes.
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Fair enough, cheers. And him rather than Doucoure I take it too

            1. hornetjb
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              It depends if Doucouré stays in the number 10 role he played on Sunday instead of his more usual double pivot position (Chalobah played there against Bournemouth). Coin toss if he stays further forward. Sarr if he plays further back.

    3. Bucket Man
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Tough between B and A. Grealish the best player and good fixtures but poor team. Sarr looks exciting and in a improving team with mixed bag of fixtures.

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, that’s kinda how I’ve seen it too

    4. Gooner97
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A

  11. Bucket Man
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Order these for next few weeks please. Can't do A if Ramsdale is out and B gives me a free transfer extra.
    A) Ramsdale, Soyuncu, Mane, DCL
    B) McCarthy, VVD, Maddison, Rashford
    C) Ryan, Robertson, Maddison, Abraham

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B, just

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years

      +1 for B

      1. Bucket Man

        Thanks guys

    3. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Same as my thoughts above. A gives you Mane, BC gives you a balanced long term squad.

  12. danlynch13
    • 8 Years

    Is doing martial > Richarlison or mahrez worth it with Man U playing Liverpool feel like being aggressive and making the move could be rewarded

    1. Party time
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Not for me. Martial is pretty consistent

      • Party time
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Also depends on when you got Martial as he is cheaper & the extra can be used elsewhere

          1. danlynch13
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            I’d loose 0.1 if I did it

            1. Party time
                4 years, 2 months ago

                Utd have a good fixture in gw 24 too & long term + it is not as if Anthony isn't doing the job you want him to do.

                Mahrez is rotation prone & Richarlison is a fraud imo

                1. Fulchester's New Centr…
                  • 6 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

            Play Sarr over Commander Adama?

          What do we think of this, gang?

          Currently on:

          Guiata
          Lund/Soy/TAA
          Salah/KdB/Martial/Maddison
          Vardy/DCL/Abraham

          McGov/Traoré/Rico/Kelly

          1.8 ITB

          I was thinking of sticking this week, and doing one of the following for GW24:

          A) Martial, Maddison and Abraham OUT > Mané, Ings and Cantwell IN (-4)
          B) Abraham and Maddison/Martial OUT > Firmino and Grealish IN
          C) Rico/Kelly and Martial OUT > Robbo and Grealish IN

          What do you reckon?

          1. Kuzser
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Like B or C, but not necessarily with grealish. Only Bournemouth and Norwich are worse than Aston Villa

            • 13 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Tammy to Firmino
            Maddison or Martial to Sarr

          3. Fulchester's New Centr…

            A. Hit could pay off this week.

        • Top Lad Dakes.
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Sell Maddison or Martial?

          Have Vardy and Rashford if that makes any difference in your thinking...

          1. danlynch13
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Maddison I think, martial playing oop and Maddison is likely to have the blank in the near future

                GW28

                Could yet be Villa who blank of course. If it’s Leicester then it’ll be a test of people holding Vardy and KdB for value

                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  So someone like Firmino could have 2 additional games over Vardy in this time?

        • Top Lad Dakes.
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          A) Doucoure or Sarr
          B) How was Trossard looked recently? Brighton fixtures amazing
          C) Sell Rico or Kelly for Robbo

          1. Holmes
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            A) Doucoure. But Sarr is also good.

            B) Haven't seen them play. He did hit the woodwork vs Everton.

            C) Rico. Meh defense.

            1. Holmes
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              With respect to Doucoure, he might get comparatively more bookings.

          A) KDB & Abraham -> MANE & Maupay

          B) Tomori & Maddison -> ROBERTSON & Cantwell

          C) Abraham & Maddison/Grealish -> FIRMINO & Cantwell

        • Sotamendi84
          • 7 Years

          start one:

          b) rico (nor)

          i know they might not even feature

          1. Fulchester's New Centr…

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Remove Targett or Rico for TAA?

          Rico looks like hes lost his palce, but if wins it back has good fixtures (i know its still bournemouth who are woeful at the moment!)

          Targett currently injured, no idea if he's nearly back or not. If he is then is he better to keep?

          1. Fulchester's New Centr…
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Targett probably first choice when fit so I'd keep him.

          Best combination for GW24?

          Salah has played 4 PL games vs ManU, hasnt scored or assisted yet.

          Should it affect our decision as whether to bring him in now or just for DGW24?

          Other option for me is to punt on Sterling (C) for one GW. Then go to Salah. Sterling has scored 5 goals in his last 6 vs Palace in the PL, fwiw. But will he start?

          1. Fulchester's New Centr…
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Overthinking. Just do it.

            1. Pieterke30
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Do what? Bring Salah in now?

              No City one week punt then?

              1. Fulchester's New Centr…
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                Yes. Salah now or fix somewhere else in your team. Forget Sterling.

        • Dacra
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          So with my 2FT before the Liverpool double:

          Pope (McGovern)
          TAA - Soy - Lund - Rico - Kelly
          Mane - Kdb - Martial - Traore (Dendo)
          Abraham - Vardy - DCL

          6itb

          A) Traore + Abraham > Son + Firmino
          B) Soy + Traore > VVD + Son
          C) Soy + Traore > Williams (Or any max 4.1) + Salah

          Currently leaning towards A, but no Salah for DGW is scary. Current rank about 60k, like the idea of a bit of a differential in Firmino..

          1. Fulchester's New Centr…
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Go with your gut. Son and Bobby "could" be immense.

            1. Dacra
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Its those quote marks around could that make the decision hard!

          • 9 Years

          Has news of Matip and Lovren being back in training killed off Gomez as an option?

          As a Liverpool fan I want Gmez to keep his place, but its not guaranteed and we have no way of knowing before the dgw..

          1. Fulchester's New Centr…
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Surely his place to lose though and means Trent might get a rest now.

            1. Dacra
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Nah i dont reckon Gomez will play RB again, hes CB or nothing in my mind now!
