There’s just the one Premier League fixture for Fantasy managers to monitor over their Sunday lunches, with Watford welcoming Crystal Palace to Vicarage Road.

It’s a tale of two sides with conflicting form: the Hornets are riding high after back-to-back victories, while the Eagles’ wings have been clipped by successive defeats.

Watford rank third-bottom for goals conceded (five) and big chances conceded (five), illustrating their diligence at the back. Moreover, they are the only side in the league that are yet to concede a home goal this campaign. The Hornets have added a sting to their defensive resolve in recent Gameweeks, too, recording wins over Swansea and Newcastle.

The Eagles amassed eight goals through the opening four Gameweeks but have registered consecutive blanks since then. Also of concern to Alan Pardew is the fact that Palace have conceded more shots inside the box (66) than any team in the league. That being said, they rank sixth for big chances (10) and shots on target (28), which should ensure that Watford’s back line are in for a testing afternoon.

    Darn near a Sako assist. By golly, I could use it.

    1. PSEBJ27
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Darn

    Thoughts on Silva -> KDB for -4?

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Silva should fit for next game.

    2. copps
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      wait for news on silva imo

    Gayle hits the post, would've been a Sako assist

    Myhill

    Azpi Evans Kol (gomez, galloway)

    Mahrez Payet De bruyne Ayew (Chadli)

    Kane Deeney Aguero

    Thinking of Kane - Ighalo, Chadli - Sanchez (-4) if Sanzhex is likely to triple rise.

    What do you think?

    1. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ighalo has hardly touched the ball in the match..

    2. copps
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      has this match inspired you to go for the mighty watford attack?

      1. berbatron
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Nope.

  6. BrockLanders

    Man of the match for this game should be me for tolerating this rubbish. Give me the champagne

  10. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Sako off now. Awesome. Picked him and Ayew up 2 GWs ago. Yeah.

  11. Mílanista
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Save point Gomes

  12. Alan Hansen's Emu
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    352 - best 5th MF?

    Is Sako a genuine option he is subbed off at 60 mins continuoulsy?

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      First time

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Not first time to not get 90

    2. Demí
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Moses? Although he's subbed often too

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        hmm, yeah i know.

  13. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Phew...

    Sako subbed. Benched him for Mahrez and was bricking it all game.

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      He outscored Mahrez 😀

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Only 1 point though.

        i will take that. 🙂

  14. Trigg ⭐️
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Glen Murray becoming even more of a tempting Wilson replacement now.

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I'm tempted. For long term budget reasons, don't really want to spend alot on my Wilson replacement.

      1. Trigg ⭐️
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        City away aside, decent fixtures, has to start really, and the man is a goalscorer.

  15. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Ighalo. You are my Luke Skywalker. You are my only hope.

    1. The Light Knight
      • 14 Years

      *nerd rage implosion*

    2. The Bandit

      That's obi-wan kenobi, casual

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Link that team or shove it, Jack!

    4. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years

      You mean Obi-wan Kenobi.

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Guess maybe I need to watch those movies again. 'Twas decades ago since I've seen. My apologies to the nerd community.

        1. The Light Knight
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          There is no apologising to the nerd community I'm afraid. You had a good run 🙁

          1. The Enlightener
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Damn. It's over now. Harder now that it's over.

    5. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years

      Then you're screwed

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Starting to feel that way fo' sho'.

    6. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      This is still the prequel era, so he's only just been born...

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        🙂 I'll be sure to refrain from Star Wars comments in the future.

  16. Eden Hazardous
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    My GW oer....34 points 🙁

    1. Sergeant Garcia
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      39 - 4 = 35 points, dreadfull

      1. Eden Hazardous
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I had Vardy on my bench

        1. Sergeant Garcia
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          I transferred out Sanchez for Hazard ^^

          1. Eden Hazardous
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Oh God....

      2. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Same, but have Myhill left.

        One day on and I still don't believe the points screen, I got 4 goals from the midfield FFS!

        1. Sergeant Garcia
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Same, only Myhill left. But first Prodl needs to bank this CS though.

  17. PSEBJ27
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Did Sako get 60?

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Just

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Just

      1. PSEBJ27
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I'll take 3 pts over 1

    3. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Just

    4. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years

      Clean sheet point banked 😎

      1. PSEBJ27
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Phew, I'll take that. Better than the classic 59 minute substitution, I'll take 3 over 1 any day

  18. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    What a BAP magnet this Nyom fella is.

    1. SHAMESHAMESHAME
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Jinxed it. Thanks!

  19. berbatron
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Sanchez likely to triple rise?

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      very much doubt it.

    2. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      No most casuals are manu fans

    3. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Nah 0.2 max IMO

    4. berbatron
      • 14 Years

      Thanks

  20. JAC THE CAT
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    If Prodl comes off now and Watford concede later does he keep his clean sheet points?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

      1. JAC THE CAT
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Get off that pitch Prodl 🙂

  21. tm245
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Played Ighalo over Sako, so there is still a bit of time for things to turn around.

  22. Judas
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Which transfer is most important for my team for a -4 hit?

    A: Ayew to Payet
    B: Westwood to Payet (play All Out Attack Chip/ bench one of my strikers/mids)
    C: Targett ---> West Brom defender (only have 2 starting defenders atm)

    Butland, Mccarthy
    Kolarov, Francis, Targett, Muniesa, Gomez
    Sanchez, KDB, Mahrez, Ayew, Westwood
    Aguero, Vardy, Ighalo

    1. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      C

    2. trequartista
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      C. Gives you a playing 11

      1. Judas
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        B with an All out attack chip tempts me

  23. Zasa
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Birdhouse on

  24. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Darmian to Dawson worth -4?

    With Arsenal Everton and City coming up I don't see him getting many points 😀

    1. Frank Black
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Don't take a - 4 for a defender unless it's a in form Baines, Ivanovic or someone like that and unless you're bringing some heavy hitters in along with a defender like that.

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Don't you think Dawson will outscore Darmian in the next 3 gw by at least 4 points?

  25. Ibralicious
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    If this stays as it is, Nyom comes away with another mighty 9 points 😀

  26. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Not sure if it has been asked, but is Hennessey number 1 now or is there a reason that McCarthy and Speroni aren't playing?

    Could be a decent option at 3.9 😯

    1. Demí
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Speroni isn't fit. McCarthy dropped after his mistake(s)

      1. Bøwstring The Carp
        • 14 Years

        Cheers Demi

    Nyom is a clearance magnet.

      • 14 Years

      Om Nyom Nyom

  28. PSEBJ27
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    So proud of myself. Benched Mahrez, started Sako, and in return got one point extra. You might as well call me a FPL King.

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Lord PSEBJ27 ❗

    2. Old Man

      You'll be on the Scoutcast next week.

  29. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Wouldn't mind a 0-1 Palace win now that McCarthy isn't playing.
