After eleven weeks in the Premier League, you’re most likely to have your Fantasy team ready and running, but it’s never too late to make adjustments if you want to take the gold at the end of the year, just like real life managers do.
Today, we’ll discuss the three best choices from Liverpool for your fantasy team, as the reds face Southampton in a very important match since they don’t want to lose momentum in their title run and they’re currently leading the Premier League table.
Klopp’s side is definitely going to be without star playmaker Adam Lallana, who suffered a minor injury while playing for England in a friendly match against Spain, and even if it doesn’t sound like a major concern, the Reds are going to play it safe with this guy.
On top of that, several guys may be kind of tired after that international break, since they made long flights this week, but they’re definitely going to be on the pitch either way. So, let’s go ahead and take a look at the 3 best players from Liverpool for your fantasy team.
Sadio Mane
With Coutinho reportedly out of the St. Mary’s fixture, the former Southampton man – Sadio Mane – should top your list. He has been an absolute joy to watch so far and will be looking to add more to his tally against his former club.
The youngster is playing the best football of his career, so you’ll definitely want to throw him out there and hope he continues with this amazing run his having.
Besides, Southampton’s defence has taken a dip and their boss Claude Puel knows it, as the Frenchman has already stated that Liverpool is the big favourite for this match and even to win the title, so look for a lot of goals when the Reds face the Saints.
James Milner
Milner has been a great wildcard for most of the season, as he’s been playing as a left back, but has contributed a lot in offence, scoring a lot of fantasy points at a reasonable price for most owners.
Even if Liverpool has struggled in defence for most of the season, we hope they clearly dominate this matchup from the beginning, as Jurgen Klopp has emphasised the need to improve their own side of the pitch and get more clean sheets from Loris Karius.
Emre Can
The German is a cheaper choice than the skipper and fellow midfielder Jordan Henderson, and he’s on the verge of an outstanding season since being brought back to the starting lineup after recovering from that injury.
Can’s been having a great year on both ends of the pitch, and look for him to be a defensive wall during most of this matchup, as Liverpool is set to own the ball for most of the game.
