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.

    Best Lukaku replacement? Welbeck maybe?

    1. Kun Tozser
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      Sturridge maybe

        This ^. Have to see if maybe Origi is Klopp's preference. Tomorrow's match may give some clue.

      Not since November

  14. FPL Daniel

    I told ya Rojo owners luckily with a CS banked 😉 He coming off early might be an asset actually, like Demel back in the days

    I'm considering doubling up on United attack

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      Who exactly?

      1. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 17 hours ago

        Rash Martial

        1. Pirlø's Pen
          • 10 Years

          ludcrious imo, will cause you horrendous problems down the line

            • 11 Years

            Probably will, just thinking out loud

    TFM injury

  20. fiveyears

    Getting rid of Lukaku 34 too risky? Just seems like there are better form options, and don't want Kun/Kane to go.

    1. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      *scores a hat-trick* 😀

    2. Woy of the Wovers

      Suicidal.

    3. Hect.OR 98th

      Stick with him for his second DGW. It's why we all got him. Just don't captain him or expect anything other than 4 points.

    4. Kun Tozser
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      Who you thinking?

      Everton not with it, cup, lukaku wants to leave, manager to be replaced, bang out of form

      1. fiveyears
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 17 hours ago

        Martial basically.

        Just worry about decisions being driven by ownership rather than points potential, but then SOT, liv could produce something I guess...

  21. ★Kuntheman★

    Lukaku TC fail

    Anyone know why Darmian isn't even on the bench for Manu?? Got him in my wildcard team and might need to replace him now!!

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Spurs 3 Darmian 0

    2. Tibbs
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      who are thinking for, same problem as me. May be punting on F-Mensah

      1. Doar1986
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 17 hours ago

        Anyone else punting on F-Mensah?

  23. Numb
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 17 hours ago

    0-0 all over this

  24. Tibbs
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 17 hours ago

    Darmian owner here (knew the risks)

    Should I be switching him to:

    a) Rojo
    b) Fosu
    c) Dawson - for guaranteed double

    1. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      I'm holding in the hope he'll play one game. A and B are rotation risks, West Brom are poor.

    2. Kun Tozser
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      C if you need a 35 player
      B for a punt

  25. Cheeseoid

    I am of half a mind to do Lukaku to Caroll

    1. Doar1986
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      Carole could be a nice cheap guaranteed 180 mins next week

  26. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 17 hours ago

    When Barcelona drew Atletico Madrid, I had a feeling they'd have a problem. Atletico are the only team that can shut down that offense.

    Going to pretend it's not a DGW and I didn't (C) Lukakau.
    Goal and 2 Baps that's my story...

    1. Whazza

      Great story mate

    2. Numb
      • 11 Years

      Who did you captain?

  28. Hybrid.power

    Rashford worth getting this weekend??

    1. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      No. Go for a guaranteed DGW player like Mitrovic instead.

    2. Sif
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

      Not with Rooney; the ghost of talent past haunting the bench tonight.

    • 10 Years
    10 years, 17 hours ago

    Robles on how many saves now?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 17 hours ago

    Delaney and Robles with 12 points isn't so bad. Given up expecting anything from Lukaku and Bolasie, so just hoping for a 0-0.
