All major players present and correct for Double Gameweek Triple Captaincy

All the major players are present and correct for the first big Triple Captaincy event of the 2019/20 season.

The Liverpool team sheet for their Double Gameweek 24 trip to Wolves has come with no unpleasant surprises.

Sadio Mané (£12.5m), Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) and Mohamed Salah (£12.4m) all keep their places in the front-three while the back-four remains unchanged from the side that beat Manchester United last time out.

That means, as usual, that Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.6m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) are the full-backs either side of Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) and Joe Gomez (£5.2m).

Tonight’s match is set to be a big one in the course of the Fantasy Premier League season with so many Triple Captain chips in play.

39.3% of the top 10k Fantasy managers deployed the enhanced armband for Double Gameweek 24, with Salah and Mané largely the ones trusted with it.

Meanwhile, there are a number of different combinations when it comes to the most popular Liverpool triple-up, so it will be interesting to see which one proves the highest-scoring, although we still have next week’s trip to West Ham to look forward to.

Meanwhile, Wolves have also named a relatively straight forward line-up with Raúl Jiménez (£7.5m) and Adama Traoré (£5.7m) both in the front-three.

The biggest team news from Nuno Espirito Santo’s perspective sees previously injured Diogo Jota (£6.1m) and Willy Boly (£4.7m) back on the bench.

Their return should mean good things for Wolves’ prospects in the coming weeks.

Wolves XI: Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Dendoncker; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; Neto, Jiménez, Traoré.

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; J Henderson, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Mané, Firmino, Salah.

    Very long way to go for invincibility but Liverpool need 2.2 points per game to become centurions

    Currently on 2.9 points per game which is the best in PL history

    Joe Cole: "Salah, very quiet game, but [the set up for Henderson's assist] was wonderful."

    Salah had 6 attempts. 5 shots in the box! Most penalty box touches alongside Jimenez!

      Joe Cole is plop. All the TV companies do it. Churn out ex players to give opinions because they played at a high level as opposed to sports reporters who know how to talk well about football games.

    We are LIVERPOOL!

    Just wanted to get that out after my TC on Salah. Oh well, still West Ham to come.

    Wasn’t watching earlier - did Mané walk off or go off on a stretcher? Clinging to some faint hope to TC may get me more than 3 points total!

      Having swapped 100 times between Mane, Robbo and Terrence Trent Darby for the TC, I’m not too gutted I went for Robbo.

    Have the news covered the DGW-virus? Highly contagious and leading to poor decision making. No known casaulties, yet.
