Expected
FPL Braveheart has done a great job of combining the expected goals, assists and clean sheet data, to identify players who have underperformed from an FPL perspective. The points are coming for Aubameyang and Davies.♻️ xFPL Update – GW3 ♻️

Defenders
It’s no surprise that Liverpool defenders are popular, with back to back clean sheets to start the season. Robertson has been the go to selection, but the Editor has identified a significantly cheaper alternative in the underlying statistics.Alexander-Arnold (5.0) vs. Robertson (6.0)

Injuries
The absence of some key players won’t help Brighton’s case, as they travel to Anfield for a tricky fixture. Lewis Dunk in particular will be a big loss in the heart of their defence. Advantage Liverpool attackers?"Lewis Dunk [ankle] hasn't trained this week but it's not as bad as we first feared. Florin Andone [groin], Bruno [hamstring] and Jose Izquierdo [knee] will all miss the weekend." #BHAFC
