Key Liverpool assets in place as Aubameyang sits on Arsenal bench

Liverpool’s key assets are all set to face a much-rotated Arsenal side at the Emirates Stadium.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) and Sadio Mané (£12.2m) both retain their places from the draw with Burnley, each one boasting a vested interest in the Golden Boot race.

Their exploits on Wednesday evening could be pivotal to the outcome of Gameweek 36+ considering that their backing inside the top 10,000 FPL managers took a dip for the midweek round of action.

We know that many Free Hit managers overlooked the pair in favour of Chelsea and Manchester City counterparts, although those two clubs have largely struggled to completely fulfil their promise against Norwich and Bournemouth respectively.

Meanwhile, Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.7m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) start a match together for the first time since Gameweek 33+ with Neco Williams (£4.0m) back on the Liverpool bench.

Those invested in the Liverpool full-backs, or either of the centre-halves, will be pleased to see who is sitting on the Arsenal one.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.9m) has lost his place this evening, named among the substitutes for the first time since the Premier League restarted.

In the striker’s place, Mikel Arteta has named Reiss Nelson (£ and Nicolas Pépé (£8.9m) either side of Alexandre Lacazette (£9.2m) in the front-three.

Arsenal XI: Martínez; Tierney, Holding, D Luiz, Cédric; Xhaka, Torreira, Saka; Nelson, Lacazette, Pépé.

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

    4x Wolves clean sheets lost in the last minute in the last 3 gameweeks. Unreal.

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Honestly can’t believe it

      Throw in 11 points benched in first sub from Taylor last week & then his injury today

      Bah

    Love that from Doherty. off the bench grab me an assist and give away a pen to ruin the other Wolves def scores 🙂

  20. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Love that Doherty punished Despacito Santo for benching him

  21. Whazza

    Mo will run riot vs second string Arsenal

  22. luk46
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    dropped from 15k to outside 60k, Jimenez scoring after I got him out, Sterling benched, then comes on for a one pointer, Jesus + Kane punishing etc; sometimes you hate it, but still keep playing regardless

    Second time since the restart that Wolves have lost me a double CS in added time. Gutted. That's 12 points lost.

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Burnley pen?

      Refs decision, not clear enough to overturn.

  25. Rolls-Royce
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Losing Patricio CSs in the 90th minute has become a norm now

    2. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years

    3. Bubz
      • 10 Years
