Gameweek 32 concludes at Selhurst Park as Crystal Palace – with victories in four of their last five Premier League matches – look to maintain their recent revival against London rivals Arsenal.

Sam Allardyce’s’ Eagles have kept clean sheets in their last two home outings but a shut-out looks unlikely this evening: they face an Arsenal side who have scored in each of their previous twenty matches in the Premier League, with key Fantasy asset Alexis Sanchez a big factor in that statistic.

The Chilean has notched 12 goals and supplied five assists on the road this season – more than any other player – and is backed by 309,000+ or 7% with the captaincy this evening.

He’s supported by an in-form Theo Walcott, with the FPL midfielder boasting goals in back-to-back Gameweeks as he bids to provide us with a cheaper alternative to Sanchez. Impressively, Walcott has scored 18 goals from his last 23 starts in all competitions.

    Sakho FC. Sit down Alexis.

      Klopp needs to swallow his pride

  2. Syd.

    9 years, 1 day ago

    Sakho saved that with his arm

    so close for sanchez, sakho with a block

      with his hand

    This game needs a Xhaka bullet

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Two footer?

      1. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        He is famous for two things..right

        1. Greenbackbøøg…
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 day ago

          His left and right foot as they fly into opponents shins

          1. Guvnor
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 1 day ago

            Looool

  6. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    They all just look for Sanchez when attacking but him being on the wing buggers the attack up

  7. Sponge-worthy
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Townsend close.

  8. itwaswritten
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    The way Sakho has his foot on every Arsenal attackers neck. Poor Flopp.

  9. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Point for Townsend!

  10. vectorman
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Terrible fixtures they might have generally Palace but you gotta say they fight like beavers back there.. Regret not getting in a Palace defender on my WC

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Would love it if PvA was fit

  11. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Sakho really is class

  12. 824545201
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Zaha or King the better option?

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

      I got both, bargain midfielders the pair of them 🙂

    2. cjw176
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Get both

    3. :
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Zaha for the next couple of GWs I'd imagine.

    4. Moses _H
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      king

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    As an FPL manager you have to adapt

    Sanchez wrong position, bad form, get rid imo

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Always has a way of punishing sellers though

    2. Sponge-worthy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      It would hurt too much.

    3. vectorman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      When that DGW rolls round you might change your mind.. 😉

    4. ChampChomp
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Still looks the most threatening player so far

    5. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Get rid and he'll punish you straight away and probably move to forward position lol

    6. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Just takes a DGW triple captain Sanchez from a rival and you could be looking at a 100point swing

    7. lespaul
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      2 DGWs in next 5

  14. Jedi_Reed
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Main ML rival has Valencia and Walker, with Zaha and Snoddy coming off bench. I have Brunt. Not good.

    1. McQueen
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      He played 5 at the back? Otherwise defenders come in first...

      1. Jedi_Reed
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        Fair point. Played 4 at the back with Zaha coming in. Caceres is his 5th defender, for some strange reason.

    2. AdamB
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      So he played 5 defenders?

  15. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Mustafi is as slow as Mertesacker

  16. drughi
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Palace looking good I must say, despite fixtures I might add some more palace players to my team. Zaha already in, benteke or townsend might get the nodd

  17. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Ozil playing way too deep here. Actually think they need to switch to a proper 4-4-2

  18. Doar1986
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    When are people WC, are all the fixtures on the website now or there some extra pending ones?

    1. lespaul
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      oh dear

      1. Doar1986
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        thats helpful

  19. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Jonathan Benteke owned by 0.4%.
    I wonder do they cheer when Christian scores, thinking they've got points?

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

      Christian doesn't score that much so I don't think it really matters.

      1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        2 in his last 2 not terrible.
        Also got 4 in 6 for me earlier in the season.

    2. Teahupo'o
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Happened to me with the Bournemouth Smiths earlier this season. At least the Bentekes have their first names in the transfers page.

      1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        Ah disaster, that one's a lot easier to do though. You'd have to think you were getting a crazy bargain, Benteke for 4.3m, and such a differential too!

        1. Teahupo'o
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 1 day ago

          I was. It was in the first gw, when I was looking for cheapies. My fault, but inexcusable to not have at least their first initials there. Brad Smith remained bench fodder for months.

      My mate had Suarez hatrick in a barca game a while bk. When he was hearing the pings on his fone for the Suarez goals he was over the moon. Only it was Denis Suarez!!! You should have seen his face . Lol

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Madness. What happened then?

    4. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Would rather own Jonathan

      1. camarozz
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        It was a bet I should have said. Would have been a nice return too.

  20. diesel001

    9 years, 1 day ago

    Can't say Sanchez isn't trying today.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      Trying too much in a way that doesn't benefit FPL though 🙁

    2. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      He almost always is. Sadly it doesnt necesarrily translate into fpl points.

    3. ThisTimeNxtYrRodney

      9 years, 1 day ago

      I'm happy for others to get rid of sanchez. It will make him more of a diff when he does produce. Wenger will have to play him up front soon, surely!!!!!

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 day ago

        Wish I could say they will be playing Rovers 🙁

        1. Nomar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Venkys really have a lot to answer for.

    WTF is that on Bellerin's head?

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      It's a bit 80's New Wave 🙂

    2. We Will Klopp you

    Crystal palace have burnley at home after the dgw. If you invest you dont need to panic to get rid either

  25. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Son + Vardy > Zaha + Kane -4?

  26. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Bellerin and Elneny look like Wii Miis

  27. Dele
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Time for Sanchez out he's had his time.

    Those 3 heavy hitters up top will look perfect.

    what happened to Friday night football? I thought there was supposed to be 10 Friday night fixtures this season but only remember maybe 3

    1. Owusu90
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 day ago

      West Ham vs Spurs GW35. Think it flopped on viewing figures in general.

  29. camarozz
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 day ago

    Zaha on my bench as first sub . Need a rule change tonight for his points .
