He played in Munoz to begin Liverpool‘s fightback, meaning Wirtz has assisted in back-to-back games for Liverpool across all competitions for the first time – although this was only his second goal involvement in seven league games this term.

With 31 shots in 11 starts, Eze leads the way among Arsenal players. He had six in the derby alone.

The only note of caution is that he

Bryan Mbeumo (captain), Brentford, £8.2m – Wolves (a)

Mbeumo has six returns in his past five games and would have hauled more if not for a rare penalty miss last week.

He takes on a Wolves side who have conceded seven goals in the previous three games.
