The final double Gameweek side take to the pitch in Sunday’s late kick-off, with Crystal Palace making the trip to Anfield to face Liverpool.

Fantasy managers will, of course, be focused on both Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke in the Palace attack, with both commanding 144,000+ and 148,000 new Fantasy Premier League owners for Gameweek 34 respectively.

Benteke is skippered by 96214 (2.1%) of his owners as he bids to extend a run of three goals in his last four outings. He’ll face his former club in form, then, with Zaha and Andros Townsend tasked with providing him with the ammunition.

While Sam Allardyce’s side have every motivation to earn a third successive win at Anfield, Liverpool also have every incentive to claim a victory.

Their quest for a top spot and Champions League qualification goes on, with Fantasy managers focused on the efforts and output of Brazilian pair Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino.

Coutinho has been signed by over 34,000 FPL managers ahead of Gameweek 34, with Firmino earning 58,000+ new owners following his run of returns in six consecutive Gameweeks.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Don't even care about the points Tekkers got me but he is a hero.

    Good chance for a top 4 spot for us now. Just hope Martial does his job like he did today...

    I wish I tripple captained Benteke. In a gameweek where many tripple captained Negredo and Rashford.

  5. Davido989

    Lovren is f****** sh*t.

    1. Godot - Fashanu Zealand

      He's just not good enough. How many niggles has he had since he joined us? The man is made of cream crackers

    2. Alnair

      Clyne can't even cross.

      Somehow Liverpool will miss top 4 at this rate.

    Zahahahaha 😛

    1. Top 210 Club

      Loooooool

  7. Mark-O
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    So Cabaye was better than Zaha...

    1. Deus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Townsend

  8. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Right come on Townsend. Get that screamer on target!

  9. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Zaha over Townsend 2 weeks ago was such a fail. One game to go though 🙄

  10. Guvnor
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    There goes my Zaha 🙁

  11. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Lucas vs Tekkers

    This could get ugly

  12. FPL Virgin

    9 years, 3 months ago

    People should listen to Mark:

    1) Rashford will be rested for Burnley.

    2) Benteke has a 20-pointer in him.

    1. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      When did he say this? I must have missed that.

    3. nkhoughton

      He's very likely to blank to spurs

    4. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      He knows. That is for sure.

      you seem to have a bit of brown on your nose... did you know?

      1. FPL Virgin

        • 10 Years

        Mature.

    6. purple.emu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Did you listen to him 2 weeks ago when he took Son out?

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

      Mark said captain Kane - exactly my thoughts, but captained Benteke. I still believe in Kane)

  13. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    So negredo optimistic people, do you still think we made the right choice ?

    1. GuillermoDickero
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      He needs 2 against Sunderland so who knows

      1. The Overthinker
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I don't think he would get 2. I think benteke has outscored him handsomely.

    2. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      no but at least i have benteke too

    3. Hakuho FPL
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      no

    4. andymck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Probably not.

    5. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Nope. Benteke was the correct choice this week. Damn.

    6. Harper_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      No but Negredo was all I could afford

    7. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Of course not. We are a bunch of f@@king imbeciles.

    8. Leaf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I got both 🙂

    9. MTPockets
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Obviously not.

  14. Boomerang V
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Congrats to all that got Benteke and not Negredo like me

    1. Deus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Cheers
      Negredo is shite

  15. The Red Devil
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    No tekkers

    1. Deus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      No crackers

  16. nkhoughton
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Coutinho slowly losing his baps 🙁

  17. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    (C) 😎 😎

  18. Jakarta
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Feels a bit odd to have a grand total of 4 points at the end of the weekend.

  19. Geri-hatricks
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Townsend robbed of the assist 🙁

    1. Shifty
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Ridiculous

  20. Sims
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Should have captained benteke 🙁

    1. makaveli123
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Should've, could've

    2. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      same but happy with kane captain

    3. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      same 🙁

  21. GuillermoDickero
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Fantasy lesson for me this year - form over fixtures

    1. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      We don't learn, do we?

    2. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Definitely

    3. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Not sure about that. Can't discount fixtures. Pool was never a bad fixture for Benteke for example. Plus keeping poll mids for their good fixtures when others have moved for form others has works.

  22. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Origi to Tekkers for free looks to have been the best move I could have made. Well done me.

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Captain tekkers. No hits. Ignored palace mids. Simple. Finally the season is turning for me. Inside the top 1M and gonna climb climb climb la la la

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Benteke (C), went slightly made on the mids though. Still another game to go.

      2. nkhoughton
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Nicely done, I had to sort out defence problems or I'd of joined you

  23. Guvnor
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    *travels back in time*
    *Kaku > Benteke*

  24. rivercityransom
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    benteke owners, are we captaining him against burnley in 35 over kane?

    1. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      May go Kane instead, depends on the game Wednesday I spose

    2. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      You're not playing the game together.

    3. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Chasers like me may look at Rashford that week

    4. Deus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Nah

  25. Lav
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Another fall for me.

    Been downhill ever since I got to 94k four GWs ago. 115k OR now...

    I hope I can get back on track

  26. Differentiator
    • 10 Years

    Disgusting that Liverpool defenders didn't get the memo.

      • 11 Years

  28. Viper
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Once again, FPL ruins another Sunday 😆

    I deserve everything I get for going for Negredo/Gibson over Benteke/Blind.

    Sickening.

    1. Nomar
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Loads of people did the same.
