Fantasy Premier League: 5 Best Liverpool Players to Target for Gameweek 25 Double Gameweek

Alisson Becker Emerges as Defensive Priority Amid Trent Alexander-Arnold Injury Doubt

Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold faces a potential two-week absence due to a verified injury concern, shifting the focus of managers evaluating the club’s defensive assets. According to projections from the Fantasy Football Hub, artificial intelligence models now lean toward goalkeeper Alisson Becker over both Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk.

Alisson maintains one of the strongest points-per-match ratios among Premier League goalkeepers this season, averaging 4.5 points per match. Only Newcastle United’s Martin Dubravka and Alisson’s deputy Caoimhin Kelleher hold superior per-match rates in that position. However, managers must weigh his high valuation against an impending blank fixture in Gameweek 29. The Liverpool defense leads the league with 10 clean sheets this campaign, including two shutouts across their last four league fixtures, building on an earlier clean sheet against Aston Villa.

Mohamed Salah Leads AI Projections for Double Gameweek 25

Mohamed Salah occupies the top spot in the overall artificial intelligence projections ahead of Liverpool’s Double Gameweek 25 fixtures. The forward holds the highest AI forecast of any player in the Premier League this season. With Liverpool exiting the FA Cup in the fourth round, this stretch represents what is likely the final opportunity for managers to deploy the Triple Captain chip on Salah during a double gameweek.

Salah maintains an average of more than 10 points per match this season and enters the fixtures having scored three goals in his last four league matches. Two of those goals came in reverse fixtures against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Aston Villa, yielding a combined total of 24 points across those two encounters. Liverpool hosts Wolverhampton Wanderers before traveling to face Aston Villa.

Cody Gakpo Secures Regular Role Under Arne Slot

Dutch forward Cody Gakpo has established himself as a central figure in Liverpool’s attack, priced at 9.9 points in recent evaluations and emerging as a popular acquisition prior to the double gameweek. Gakpo has started 12 league matches under manager Arne Slot, producing seven goals and three assists during that span, which includes two double-digit hauls.

Recent form underlines his reliability for minutes despite congested fixture schedules, having contributed two goals and two assists in his last four league outings. Opposing defenses present favorable opportunities for attacking returns; Wolverhampton Wanderers conceded seven goals over their previous four matches, while Aston Villa manages defensive injuries affecting personnel such as Matty Cash, Ezri Konsa, Pau Torres, and Tyrone Mings.

Dominik Szoboszlai Serves as Differential Midfield Option

For managers seeking a differential asset outside the heavily owned template players, artificial intelligence metrics highlight Dominik Szoboszlai. Available at a budget of £6.3 million and featured in fewer than 3% of FPL teams, the midfielder has started each of Liverpool’s last four league matches.

Szoboszlai’s standout performance during that run came in a 4-1 victory over Ipswich Town, where he contributed a goal and an assist to bring his season total to nine offensive returns alongside three goals.
