Key FPL assets all start as Burnley face Liverpool

The eighth and final Premier League match of a busy Saturday kicks off at 17:30 BST, with Liverpool the visitors to Turf Moor.

The team news is very straightforward as there is just one change to the starting XIs in all: Aaron Lennon (£4.9m) replacing the injured Johann Berg Gudmundsson (£6.0m) on the right flank for Burnley.

Jurgen Klopp names the same 11 players who lined up for the victory over Arsenal last Saturday.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) is the second-most-captained player of Gameweek 4, having been handed the armband by over one million FPL managers.

Liverpool put seven goals past the Clarets in their two meetings last season, with Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) scoring three of them.

The Reds are yet to keep a clean sheet this season, while Sean Dyche’s side recorded a shut-out in their only previous home league game this season: against Southampton in Gameweek 1.

Ashley Barnes (£6.7m) has scored in each of his three league appearances this season and was bought by over 250,000 Fantasy bosses in the build-up to Gameweek 4.

Liverpool’s Andrew Robertson (£6.9m) was the second-most-sold defender of this current Gameweek, having been offloaded by over 190,000 FPL managers.

Burnley XI: Pope; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Pieters, Lennon, Cork, Westwood, McNeil, Barnes, Wood.

Liverpool XI: Adrían; Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Matip, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Salah, Mané, Firmino.

  20. paza12
    • 14 Years

    How is that goal given to taa? It was clearly off target?

    1. jia you
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 22 days ago

      Its a Wood OG!

    2. Mr_Barbs
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 22 days ago

      I don't think it has. Assist.

    3. Maddi Son
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 22 days ago

      It was given as an assist

    4. KGFC
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 22 days ago

      Not given... Wood OG

  21. jia you
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 22 days ago

    Only two proper teams in this league (and it hurts saying that as a MUN fan)!

  22. Sandy Ravage
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 22 days ago

    Mane Mane Mane MANEEE!
    MAAANEEE,

  23. teddypicker
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 22 days ago

    So the trick must be to swap between Mane and Salah every gwk :p

  24. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 22 days ago

    ha this week ridiculous

  25. OPTA FPL
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 22 days ago

    Salah could be 12.3 after int.break

  26. Scholes Out For Summer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 22 days ago

    Mane and Salah are interchangeable at this point I feel like. Just is that extra million worth the extra ownership for salah

  27. FPL Daniel
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 22 days ago

    Clear goal for TAA. Owner here

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 22 days ago

      Nice to meet you Stevie Wonder. What are you doing on a fantasy football forum?

    4. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 22 days ago

      Sounds a bit biased

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 22 days ago

        You can't prove it wasn't going on target initially

  28. FDMS All Starz
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 22 days ago

    Hmmm maybe Mane +1mil is better than Salah

    1. fantasyfog
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 22 days ago

      lol

  29. Party time

      Unlucky for Wood owners with that own goal! Back to waiting for my first goal of the Gameweek.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 22 days ago

        It will be changed to goal for TAA

        1. fantasyfog
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 22 days ago

          no chance, that would require common sense
