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.

    Think I will go deeney over benteke

    He just doesn't seem like he is going to be getting too many chances

    1. Jazz!

      Aguero Costa Lukaku strikeforce it's looking like - for me.

      1. Dr Kenneth Noisewater
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Sorely tempted. A Costa > Deeney does allow significant squad upgrades though.

      Think he def is a better option in the same price bracket. I'm keeping against Sunderland and getting Costa in the week after. The benefits from playing Capoue as a 4th midd 😀

      Best front 8?

      A)

      Sanchez Lallana Antonio Capoue (Fletcher)
      Aguero Ibrahimovic Lukaku

      B)

      Sanchez Firmino Antonio Snodgrass (Capoue)
      Aguero Lukaku Benteke

      1. Mr. Meeseeks
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        B obviously..

      2. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Anything where Capoue isn't a fifth mid

      3. Buck The Trent
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        B

    • thep025
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Antonio+Benteke
      vs
      Sterling+Deeney

      1. JIM BOB
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Antonio and Deeney

        1. Mr. Meeseeks
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          This

          1. thep025
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Yeah probably

    • Too Mane Men
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      VVD topping the BPS. Really need Saints to keep their first shut out here. Fonte's reckless idiocy giving penalties away has cost me dear.

    • Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      This Townsend guy has a lit of potential. On set pieces, kinda sant to leave him on my WC

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Want

    • Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Someone on my team please score this is woeful

    • Dr Kenneth Noisewater
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      More spread or more explosion?

      A) Williams - Holebas / KDB / Deeney (KDB in his renaissance, Deeney on pens)
      B) Baines - Smith / Lallana / Costa (more rounded option, 3 captainable FORs, Chelsea + Liverpool cover)

      The rest:

      Heaton - Robinson
      Shaw - McAuley - Amat
      Sanchez - Antonio - Bolasie - Capoue
      Aguero - Lukaku

      1. Buck The Trent
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        A for me

    • Krul Runnings
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Come on Tadic and Redmond!

      Stones cameo could end up costing me Amat C/S

    • DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Lovern at 4.9 an option on wildcard?

      1. KingNidge
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Yes a crap one

        1. Jazz!
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Lol

        2. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Thanks for the laugh king

      2. The Donald
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Pool defense is awful and he might not start every week

      3. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Never ever buy Liverpool defence

      4. Grand Thibauto
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        You will get frustrated with his YCs too

    • PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Long booked for diving

      I thought it was a pen at first look

      1. Nicks93
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        same here

        1. PvA
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Probably wasn't getting the ball after so fair decision

      2. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Ball gone and he ran in to the defenders legs and did a great swallow dive

    • La Roja
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Redmond close

    • PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Redmond big chance

    • M.M.A
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      best 5.5 defender ? not baines

      1. Concrete
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        There aren't many about on current form

        Dann for goal threat?

      2. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Best option as 4th midfielder?

        A) Capoue
        B) Snodgrass
        C) Any other suggestion 6m max?

        Thanks.

    • Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Redmond urgh

    • Concrete
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Is a 12 point hit too much/knee jerk?

      Bringing in Sanchez, Firmino, Aguero, Bolasie and Lukaku for

      Ozil, Hazard, Costa and Ibra

      1. Grand Thibauto
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Yes. Keep Hazard/Ozil Costa Ibra. Just do Ozil/Hazard to Firmino. And if you really want Kun. Maybe Ibra to Kun or Costa if you have budget

        1. Concrete
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Cheers for the advice

      2. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Seriously just pretend that you got 12 points less this week than you actually did 🙂

        1. Concrete
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Ha, one way of looking at it! Cheers

      Why did Redmond not pass to long there? Long would have had a certain goal

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        His ML rival had Long (TC)

    • willl
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Chadli in for next two GWs then switch to Snodgrass if he doesn't perform?

      Fixtures look good.

      1. El-Kloppico
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        No fixture looks good for WBA attck.. onmy DEF is appealing

        1. willl
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          They are playing Stoke and Sunderland, those look good attacking wise to me.

    • ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      Benteke 0 shots v the worst defence in the league. Adios

      1. GoonerByron
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Only half way there, keep faith.. Stoke are terrible

      2. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        He did have a header.... it didn't reach the goal but it was still a shot 🙂

      3. PvA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Benteke had 1 shot last week lol

    • GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      A. Ibra, Snodgrass and Chadli
      B. Deeney, Sterling and Firminho
