A Selhurst Park head-to-head between Palace and Everton brings the curtain down on what has been a bitterly disappointing Gameweek for many Fantasy managers.

Having clinched a crucial home win over Norwich on Saturday, the Eagles boast better attacking form that the Merseysiders prior to this evening’s kick-off.

Over their respective last four matches, Alan Pardew’s men lead Everton for attempts on goal (52 to 42), efforts inside the box (36 to 27) and goals, by four to three. The Toffees have been a little more accurate, however, edging their hosts by 18 shots on target to 17.

Neither side has convinced at the back, though, which potentially bodes well for those who loaded up on their main attackers. Palace have afforded the opposition eight big chances in their last four – only two sides have poorer records – whilst Everton are not far behind on seven big chances against.

Fingers crossed, then, that we something to cheer about as we fine-tune our plans before double Gameweek 34 comes around.

    Apart from Otamendi, who is nailed on for City? Kolarov?

    1. juggos
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Hart. Clichy is first choice I believe but may be rested so each may get one. Kompany nailed once back

    I hate James McCarthy. Probably Lukaku blank and Robles cleanie wipe-out now.

  8. Ryan Naysmith

    Lukaku pass the damn balm

    1. Ryan Naysmith

      Balllll

      At least he's relaxed. 😆

    4. Back on the horse

      pass the balm? you sore?

  9. Red Scout
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Knowing LVG the same team should start against Villa no..?

    Rojo and Fosu-Mensah in for a hit..yay or nay?

  10. Frank Black
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Lukaku has been a massive fail so far. It's true that he still has two DGWs but it's also true that he has much tougher fixtures in those gameweeks.

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      And it's true that he's in horrendous form!

    2. Kun Tozser
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Not for the first time this season either

    3. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      That's the troll factor. Goals inc

    4. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      And this is why I am thinking of selling for another DGW forward. I am hoping it can be a Pool forward, but need to wait and see if Sturridge or Origi are clear.

  11. Jake Donahue
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    You have half an hour Mr lukaku to get me something....anything

  12. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Time to sell Lukaku and a get a DGW midfielder who will actually do something..

    KDB!!!

  13. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
    • 10 Years

    a lukaku tap in isnt too much to ask ffs

  14. Lateriser 12

    Who would be happy with a 0-0?

    1. Slam
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      No

    2. VS10_
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      No, just Robles here.

    3. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Yes

    4. Clump
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      I'd be happy with a plaster for my blister after this GW! 🙂

    5. Pacer.
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      I have double CP and Robles. Not holding my breath tho

    6. Red Scout
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      That'd please me quite well, got Delaney and Robles

    7. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Hennersey/Dann and Lukaku (C) - overall happy with a 0-0 or Palace win if it means a blank for Lukaku, still can't believe I put him in 🙁

    8. Jøssy ⭐
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Nooooooo...

      I have Delaney, but one rival has a double-up, and the other captained Dann.

      I don't want my CS anymore 🙁

    9. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      No (no Robles, Jagielka, no Palace)

    10. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Sure, min 19 points for that

    11. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Reasonably, but I'd much rather give up my Delaney CS for a Lukaku goal and Lennon assist

    12. 1569Tippins
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Me... unless Lukaku fancies scoring 2 or 3!

  15. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Also, is it me or Everton look better with ten men?

  16. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Everton still dominating with 10 men

  17. The 12th Man
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Considering Lukaku > Sturridge.

    1. Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Don't

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 1 day ago

        Why not?

    2. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Same. Need to wait and see after tomorrow's Europa league match the Pool story.

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 1 day ago

        Of course.

  18. England's Number 1
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Very tempted by Lukaku > Rooney and that's saying something because Rooney is pants nowadays.

  19. Evs
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    I thought Fosu Mensah was supposed to be crocked after the weekend?

    bit of a miraculous recovery that ?!?!!!

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Not sure if he was ever confirmed out was he?

    2. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Absolute beast.

  20. DGWjegy
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    i am shocked

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 day ago

      Strange question, of course.

  21. Would an idiot do that?
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Any chance of Lukaku scoring? Not watching the game

  22. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    Ward TC would give 50+ points at the moment

  23. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

    How is that not a red for Neymar?

    1. Vedas

  25. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 1 day ago

  26. ThatAsianGuy17
    • 11 Years

  27. Konig Luther

    Gents, what's the chance of a Couthino price rise tonight?

    Would love to hold off until tomorrow, or ideally Friday / Saturday !

  30. Sif

    Palace with 6 clean sheets in 32 games prior to this GW :S
