After Watford’s win over United at Vicarage Road earlier this afternoon, Fantasy managers are treated to a couple of 2.15 pm encounters in the busiest Sunday of the season so far.

Mid-price pair Christian Benteke and Wilfried Bony go head-to-head at Selhurst Park as Palace look to build on last week’s win at ‘Boro.

Wilfried Zaha has another opportunity to strengthen his claim as a cheap midfield option after last week’s goal and assist on Teesside, though Marko Arnautovic could also throw his hat in the ring as the Potters prepare for a fine upcoming run of matches.

Southampton continue to seek a first league win under Claude Puel, though will be buoyed by the midweek Europa League win over Sparta Prague.

Visitors Swansea have managed just a single point in the last three Gameweeks, though the manner of their comeback against Chelsea last Sunday will fill the Welsh outfit full of confidence.

A poor performance from either side may well persuade owners to look elsewhere given their respective upcoming fixtures. Saints face West Ham, Leicester, City and Chelsea in the next five, whilst the Swans go up against City, Liverpool and Arsenal in the upcoming three Gameweeks.

      Firmino still the best option, provided he's fit

  3. Clump

    Bright start from Palace.

    I can afford both Sterling and Antonio - choosing between the two is very difficult.

    Neither pick would affect the rest of my team.

      Keep both? Ride the hot hands and make some money for later in the season

    Bottomed and repost.

    A. Hazard, Ibra -> Mane/Firminho , Kun [-4]
    B. Hazard, Benteke -> Snodgrass , Kun [-4]
    C. Just ditch Hazard and keep Ibra for Leicester, get Kun later on.

    For A, get whom?

    "If an opposing player touches the ball after the final pass before a goal is scored, significantly altering the intended destination of the ball, then no assist is awarded."

      Is your point that it was or wasn't an assist in your opinion?

      That rule tells me it was an assist despite what I thought when watching it.

      Ibra was clearly aiming for Rashford. Ball hits opposing player and still lands at Rashford's feet. Rashford buries goal.

      Zlatan assist.

      I'm not saying the rule makes sense, but going strictly by this rule it's a clear assist.
