Top Picks

Liverpool/Man City attackers

You know the drill by now. These teams are relentlessly firing their way to the top, and both have to win this weekend. Liverpool can only overtake City with a win, while City can retain the title if they take all 3 points against Brighton.

For City, the best options are Sterling (11.7m) or Aguero (11.9m), as it seems highly unlikely Pep will rotate too much. They have an FA Cup final next weekend but the league is a bigger prize and Pep could rotate all 11 of his players and still have a team capable of winning the cup.

Brighton’s defence has been leaky at the best of times this season, so I fully expect City to smash in a few goals, and both of these players to get on the scoresheet.

Liverpool is a little trickier given Salah’s (13.3m) concussion and the performance of their side against Barcelona. I’m not saying for a second that Klopp will drop Salah, but he might be happy to bench the Egyptian if he feels that the replacement options have got it covered.

If you have Mane (10.2m) then he seems the most likely candidate, but keep an eye on the press conferences on Thursday and Friday.
