Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs Crystal Palace

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.

    How is this plan going forward:

    Hen / Pick
    Alonso / Valencia / Holegate / B. Davies / Bertrand
    Sanchez / Siggy / Eriksen / Zaha / De Roon
    Benteke / Negredo / Kane

    6m itb 1FT, no wildcard

    GW 35 Negredo + De Roon > Gabbi + King (-4)
    GW 36 Siggy + Davies > Yoshida + Hazard (-4)
    GW 37 Benteke + Valencia > Jesus + Kompany (-4)

    4 DGW players in 36
    11 DGW players in 37 with 4 SGW with good fixtures for the BB

    Thoughts with any changes would be appreciated 🙂

            It is a tough one. I wonder if Rashford will get played on the wing with a preference for Martial as the striker? If that is the case, I think I'd prefer to sell him. I hate this game at times.
