Double Gameweek 25 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues this Sunday lunchtime, with Burnley v Liverpool, Newcastle United v Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers kicking-off at 14:00 GMT.

The big team news comes from Turf Moor, where Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane return to Liverpool’s attack, alongside Roberto Firmino in Jurgen Klopp’s 4-3-3 formation.

That means Diogo Jota drops to the bench with new signing Luis Diaz.

Sean Dyche makes one change for Burnley, with Aaron Lennon coming in for Dwight McNeil.

At Newcastle, Eddie Howe makes two changes from Gameweek 24, with Dan Burn and Javier Manquillo in for Jamaal Lascelles and Matt Targett, who is ineligible.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa bring in Calum Chambers for the suspended Ezri Konsa.

Elsewhere, Rodrigo Bentancur makes his first start for Antonio Conte, as he replaces Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the engine room, while there are also changes at wing-back, with Matt Doherty and Ryan Sessegnon coming in for Emerson Royal and Sergio Reguilon, both of whom are substitutes.

For their opponents, Bruno Lage hands a first Premier League start to Luke Candle, with Rayan Ait-Nouri also returning to the XI for Marcal.

    Have all my chips available and was planning to TC Salah in 26. Any thoughts on when to use my other chips? Ta

    DDG
    Coady - TAA - Lamptey
    Salah (TC) - Jota - KDB - Bowen - Saka
    Dennis - Edouard

    Bachman - Cancelo - Broja - Dier

  6. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    I came across this crazy fact and had to double check if it's real. Man's a machine and 4 years unbeaten.

    "The only time Virgil van Dijk has lost a league game at Anfield was when he played against Liverpool for Southampton."

    1. MikeS
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Just think what city will do to them.. no spurs worth it for dgw

  8. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Dendoncker hauling

  9. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Son wtf

  10. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
    • 8 Years

    Go Wolves!

  11. Rainer

    People wanted a rotation risk wing back from this defence 😮

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Reguilon never used to be rotation risk

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Under Conte?

        1. TheBiffas
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          Most bought him before Conte

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

        He always was. Conte has often rotated that position in the past and Sessegnon is fundamentally a better WB anyway.

    Conte will be telling us he didn't realise just how crap his Spurs team are again...

  13. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Well, at least Spurs won’t sit back now…

    1. MikeS
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Hows that kane (c) now, lol

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        1. MikeS
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 11 months ago

            Unfortunate, so far

  14. g40steve
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Spurs are rubbish

  15. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Lloris having a good game

  16. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Spurs look terrible.

    1. MikeS
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      They are

  17. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Wolves fans wanted Dendoncker benched after his performance in the last game

    What a response

  18. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Dendoncker mega haul

  19. Sailboats
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Why did we Kane owners even buy him? Waste of money, cant wait to sell him

    1. MikeS
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Same reason as Ronaldo owners

  20. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    How long until Dendoncker is in teams to cover blanks?

  21. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Surely arsenal can't miss out on top 4 now

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      United will get it.

      1. MikeS
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        LOL.. no chance

      2. Jack.Armstrong96
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Maybe if games were only 45 minutes haha

  22. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Cancelo, Laporte and Jota all benched and my subs doing sod all. It could be my worst gameweek ever at this rate.

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      And Weghorst misses a one v one...

    2. Quality Quality Qualit
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Cheer up, I have Cancelo, Laporte, KdB, Jota, and Reguilon with Dennis and Martinelli on the bench. My only chance is Watkins plus Coady from the bench.

  23. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Ok so Weghorst might bot be the one to get...

  24. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Why is the Spurs score the wrong way round

  25. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    No pen?

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I think they decided not enough contact to go down.

  26. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    What other midfielders (preferably DGWer's) are there to buy apart from Son?
    I honestly think I'll be disappointed if I buy him...

  27. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Weghorst shot was going out for a throw in from 12 yards.

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      But everyone is getting Weghorse

  28. EDUARDO DA SILVA
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    How dumb are english reffs?

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Pretty sure they can spell.

  29. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Wow VAR have looked at that and said no foul on Salah. Its an absolute stone wall penalty. Clear trip in the box

  30. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Salah doesn't play for United, no pen!
