A trip to Newcastle United should not deter Fantasy Premier League managers from captaining Sadio Mane (£10.2m) or Mohamed Salah (£13.3m) in Gameweek 37.

The Magpies have a strong home record, winning six of their last seven at St James' Park.

Top form

But Liverpool need a win to go back above Manchester City and Mane and Salah are in excellent form ahead of Saturday night's match.

Both scored two goals in last week's win over Huddersfield Town, earning 19 and 13 FPL points respectively.

Salah also profited in his previous match against the Magpies in Gameweek 19.

He earned 12 points thanks to a goal and an assist in a 4-0 victory.

Mane, meanwhile, has 12 goals and an assist in the last 14 Gameweeks.

Wolves alternatives

Wolverhampton Wanderers pair Diogo Jota (£6.3m) and Raul Jimenez (£6.9m) could also bring in big points at home to Fulham.

Jota has scored in three of Wolves' last four matches at Molineux, including strikes against Manchester United and Arsenal.

Jimenez has also been a major threat in home matches.

His 54 shots inside the penalty box in such fixtures are more than any other player.

United options

Manchester United's trip to Huddersfield also lifts the prospects of their key attackers.

Paul Pogba (£8.5m) has been their top FPL performer under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The midfielder has five double-figure hauls since the manager took charge in Gameweek 18.

Marcus Rashford (£7.3m) and Romelu Lukaku (£10.7m) could also profit against the Terriers' defence.

Huddersfield have conceded at least four goals in four of their last six matches.
