3pm kick-off team news: Liverpool unchanged, Livramento starts

Following the five-goal thriller at the London Stadium, three more Gameweek 15 matches get underway at 3pm GMT.

Wolverhampton Wanderers v Liverpool, Southampton v Brighton and Hove Albion and Newcastle United v Burnley are the Premier League fixtures kicking off at the traditional time.

As for the team news, it’s fairly uneventful, especially and reassuringly so at Molineux.

Liverpool are unchanged from the Merseyside derby, while Wolves bring in Ruben Neves for compatriot Joao Moutinho in their only alteration.

Tino Livramento keeps up his 100% appearance record at St Mary’s, meanwhile, as Ralph Hasenhuttl recalls Armando Broja and Lyanco at the expense of the injured Jan Bednarek and the benched Adam Armstrong.

Graham Potter has been more active, although four of his five changes are enforced because of injuries to Adam Lallana, Jeremy Sarmiento, Lewis Dunk and Adam Webster.

Tariq Lamptey is back in the starting XI, as are Enock Mwepu, Pascal Gross, Shane Duffy and Dan Burn.

On Tyneside, Jamaal Lascelles and Miguel Almiron come in for the suspended Ciaran Clark and the absent Ryan Fraser.

James Tarkowski and Ashley Westwood are back from suspension for the Clarets, replacing the benched Jack Cork and the missing Ben Mee.

    Haven't been following closely, where did 10 mins of added time come from?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      The game paused for a while between Trossard's arm injury and when he was eventually stretchered off

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Trossard stretchered off

    3. 420king
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Trossard bad injury.

      1. King Carlos
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Ouch, what happened?

    4. Will Kane
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

    5. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

    • 5 Years

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years

      Sore back.

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Sore back from carrying opponents in the last few games.

      1. Pukkipartyy
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Hahah

    3. Shineonme
      • 7 Years

      Strained back

  4. jason_ni
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    40k rank drop so far this gw as salah non capper.
    Ramsdale, cancelo, reguillion, raphinha, toney, kane(c)

    Hopefully an unlikely kane brace sees me end up with a green!

    1. Lord of Ings
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I’ve Kane c as well
      I hope it pays off.

    2. COLLIN QUANER
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I wish you luck! Also have Kane (non captain) and Toney so hoping for a brace from both of them!

    3. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Your be lucky.

    4. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      A rank drop half way through the week after everybody's captain (195% EO) has played and returned and yours plays tomorrow? Well colour me surprised.

  5. F4L
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Sterling's return to form is not good for Jesus ffs

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      "Return to form" is stretching his recent performances a bit!

      1. Scholes Out For Summer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        hes been pretty good goal scoring wise

      2. Guru Mediation
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Hmm, he was excellent in the last match

    2. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Return to form. Don't make me laugh. Lol

  6. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Had Trent (c) until late last night ffs. Was Livra on for any bonus?? Woild have been 24 BPS, I think
    .. 🙁

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      2 supposedly

    2. El Presidente
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      He was yes, 2.

  7. Walter White (WW)
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Jota benched next gw for Divock

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Probably

  8. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Can't believe it !!!!!!

    Oh well 12 Salah points is some consolation.

    1. JONALDINHO
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Win win here!

  9. n-doggg
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    LivramentNOOOOOO clean sheet fail and my non captain Salah gamble so nearly paid off. Worst last minute ever

  10. 420king
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Second GW in a row I lose a CS in the dying minutes thanks to a goal from a 10 man Brighton. Fuming.

  11. Dammit_182
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Blind panic on the ‘deadline streams’ that foden wouldn’t start. He’s in the 11.

    1. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I don't watch them

      1. Dammit_182
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I have on from time to time. Generally just lots of panic created over nothing.

        1. Pep bites Kun
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          I'd rather get my info from the press conferences; even as obtuse as they can be. The rest is speculation and over-thinking from people who can't analyse better than you.

  12. I am 42
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    any chance Mbeumo Toney or Kane doesn't play?

    Bowen is 1st on my bench

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

      Snow is your best chance.

    2. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Less than 1% id say.

    3. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Those are three of the most nailed assets in the entire league, even during Christmas, even during their worst runs of form

      You'd need them injured

      1. I am 42
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        that's 1 of the reason I kept Mbeumo despite his poor return

        I really hope he is rested tmr

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          I think form is more important than fixtures.

  13. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    2ft. Raphinha to Bowen and Kane to Ronaldo? Or deal with Alonso?

    1. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      What’s happened with Alonso?

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

        Subbed at the 70 mark appeared unfit.

      2. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Back pain apparently

        1. Qaiss
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          Pfff, Cornet, now Alonso. Teams in tatters.

  14. rnrd
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Is this Salah the record in terms of longest streaks of non-blank for a FPL player?

    Maybe Vardy the season Leicester won the PL?

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

      I would say Ronaldo has to be up there in those stats.

    2. Zalk
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Diego costa came close that one season

  15. mixology
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    VVD now 4th highest scoring player (tied with Jota, Mane)

    Has outscored all forwards, and only behind Salah in midfield.

    Top 3 are Salah (obviously), TAA, and Cancelo

    1. Dammit_182
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      That’s nuts. He’s not a wing back though…..

    2. FPLrookie2009
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Sold him this GW because i wanted to get Jota. Already own Salah and TAA.

  16. Naby K8a
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Football is a simple game.Twenty-two men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, Divock Origi always wins.

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Yep Origi does it again. The 90th minute was made for him.

      1. Naby K8a
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        You had your chance to sign him as well...

  17. Bobby Digital
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Thought Jesus would be a cheeky punt... How wrong was I?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I regret it but needed to bring him in because I wanted Silva, ah well, bench to rescue

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
          2 years, 3 months ago

          1 pointer incoming

        • Bobby Digital
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          Problem is that we have to keep him for now. Fixtures just too good. Pot committed...

          1. Ze_Austin
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 3 months ago

            I wouldn't do that with *both* Sterling and Mahrez in the RW mix over Christmas

        • F4L
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          got a goal and assist of the bench vs PSG recently, Foden/Grealish both coming back from injury so hope for a solid 25mins and a return still, especially if City are leading when he comes on

    2. Il Capitano
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Another one to add to the growing list of last minute CS wipes

    3. jackruet
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I Don't understand why people trying to be smart by not captaining salah. This is not chasing. This is falling Down

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Might work out for a lot of people this gw. An solitary assist is not going to do much damage.

      2. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I had it on Trent until late last night. Cost me!!!

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

      At this stage of the season with so much mental and physical fatigue, there is more luck involved on FPL than at other times, I reckon.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        The entire whole game is luck based lol

      2. Pep bites Kun
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Physical I can possibly get on board with. The rest of us possibly have more mental stress working 9/5 all year 😉

    5. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Ait-Nouri went off just before that great Salah assist.

      He was brilliant today, serious option after the fixtures swing back.

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah definitely on my radar, hopefully he stays at that price
        So much better than Marcal

      2. El Presidente
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        In what, 12 GWs?

    6. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling at RW means I'm definitely buying Ronaldo

      Bye, Jesus. I kept the faith for a while. Thanks for the assist, I guess

    7. Firmino
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Ffs, that Brighton goal hurts

      1. Il Capitano
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Too right, ML rival started Duffy over Livra, 7 point gain turning into a 1 point gain, can't make any ground at this rate!

    8. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Damn 0.1 off Raph and Alonso > ESR and James.

      Can I get Rudiger as my only Chelsea defender?

      1. Root
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Dias?

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          Not a bad shout

      2. Shineonme
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Get Reggie

    9. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Raphina and Lukaku to Bowen and Ronaldo

      Or

      Raphina and Davis to Bowen and King

      Both for free with 2ft

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Wait just in case Ronaldo is injured.

    10. CroatianHammer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      28 from 7. Seems like a windfall given the way today played out. Really really hope CR7 is fit.

    11. AD2110
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Fed up with Sanchez….Thoughts on just taking the hit and moving to Ramsdale for their nice fixtures?

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I like DDG, but afraid Henderson might get a game or two during the Xmas period...

    12. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Ended up with similar points but losing Sa & Livramento points on 85mins means the huge green becomes a small green 🙁

      1. Zalk
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        same here 🙁

      2. Zalk
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        99th and 94th minute...

      3. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Actually it was 95th minutes

      4. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Miss type 🙂

        You guys holding or moving on?

    13. Lord of Ings
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Gundogan to save the gameweek!

    14. lugs
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Wilson is going to rise tonight and he's been great for me these past couple of weeks, but i have exact funds to do Wilson + livramento ---> James + Dennis for free, so sorry Callum its time to go 🙁
