Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs Crystal Palace

The final double Gameweek side take to the pitch in Sunday’s late kick-off, with Crystal Palace making the trip to Anfield to face Liverpool.

Fantasy managers will, of course, be focused on both Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke in the Palace attack, with both commanding 144,000+ and 148,000 new Fantasy Premier League owners for Gameweek 34 respectively.

Benteke is skippered by 96214 (2.1%) of his owners as he bids to extend a run of three goals in his last four outings. He’ll face his former club in form, then, with Zaha and Andros Townsend tasked with providing him with the ammunition.

While Sam Allardyce’s side have every motivation to earn a third successive win at Anfield, Liverpool also have every incentive to claim a victory.

Their quest for a top spot and Champions League qualification goes on, with Fantasy managers focused on the efforts and output of Brazilian pair Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino.

Coutinho has been signed by over 34,000 FPL managers ahead of Gameweek 34, with Firmino earning 58,000+ new owners following his run of returns in six consecutive Gameweeks.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Not many strikers score a brace at Anfield. Benteke is possibly the greatest of all time.

      2. @persecuted_by_mods
          6 years, 11 months ago

          I prefer Cristiano as a personality(pitch petulance aside) Messi is clearly the better footballer though

      3. KingNidge
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Right up there for sure

      4. Rainer

        Up there captaining Negredo!

        It's him or maradona. Shouldn't discount Diego no way

      Barcelona leap Real Madrid on head 2 head record

      HGH wins it again.

      And then he avoids paying taxes and thus refuses other kids with the same problem to get help...

        How does it feel inside that bubble of yours?

      Best game ever.

    5. Pirlø's Pen

      Things I'd do for Messi in the premier league. Surely he would be around 15m though.

      1. Petr Cech the Table
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Would be a great 3rd striker

        1. Pirlø's Pen
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 11 months ago

          Budget 6.5 enabler.

        Easily, guarantees 50 goals in a season

        Double hat-tricks against the Middlesbroughs of the world 🙂

      What a perfect week of football for all neutrals. Excellent!

    7. Athletic Nasherbo

      Probably playing Wildcard this week. Do you think I should keep Benteke for Burnley or not?

    8. Moose™
      • 11 Years

      Points prediction.

      A. Azpi + DeRoon + Rashford(c) + Benteke + Hazard

      B. Valencia + Gibson + Zaha + Sanchez + Negredo(c) + Kane

    9. tm370

      Amazing. Such a wonderful ending.

    10. Darklord_bg
      • 7 Years

      Wildcard time:

      Cech, Pickford
      Alonso, Bailly, Yoshida, Maguire, Kone
      Sanchez, Eriksen, Firmino, Redmond, King
      Kane, Vardy, Gabbi

      GW36 Firmino to Ozil and TC Sanchez
      GW37 Ozil&Redmond to Pedro&Sterling/Sane & BB

      Any thoughts?

      1. Petr Cech the Table
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Sane over Sterling though.

    11. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      How thick must Ramos be?

    12. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Anybody got gossip about when Jesus may be back? I hope Iheanacho leaves City this summer. He is top and he is reasonably priced on FPL too.

    13. Petr Cech the Table
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Does anyone know what type of injury De Roon suffered?

      BFS: “We have Tottenham on Wednesday and Burnley after that. It lifts the pressure on us. I am worried these lads can’t reach this level when they don’t have time to recover.

      “I may have to make huge changes to make sure we compete with Tottenham.”

      How likely (%) to start do you think Benteke, Cabaye and Zaha are?

      1. Prøfeßör …

        Tekkers is nailed, no doubt about it.

      Do we think Gabriel is nailed now?

    16. ★Kuntheman★

      We have no excuse for not winning the World Cup with the GOAT in our squad. No excuse whatsoever.

      1. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        He can't win it on his own no matter how good he is.

      Early thoughts on this WC?

      Heaton - Pickford
      Alonso - Daniels - Gabriel - Yoshida - Stephens
      Sánchez - Hazard - Alli - Sané - King
      Kane - Benteke - Gabbiadini

      1.6 ITB for Benteke -> Jesus GW36 if he's back then.
