Dugout Discussion – Crystal Palace vs Burnley

With just two goals from Saturday’s action so far, we now turn to the tea-time kick-off at Selhurst Park to provide some much-needed entertainment and Fantasy returns.

Crystal Palace host Burnley having enjoyed an influx of investment on the back of their double Gameweek 34, ensuring that many will have interest in this evening’s encounter.

Christian Benteke – one of the few success stories with a 14-point return – heads into the match backed by 608,000+ FPL managers, with 172,000 opting to hand him the captaincy ahead of the Clarets clash – that includes 21 of the top 100 managers.

In contrast, Wilfried Zaha owes his recent investors. He was brought in by 144,000+ ahead of Gameweek 34 only to return just three points. More than 46,000 have shipped him out ahead of today’s clash.

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

    Why are people going with Kane over Costa? More expensive and trickier fixtures?

      Costa isn't a double figure merchant. Last week was 4th all season? Not on pens

    Any thoughts on Deeney for a cheap DGW'er? More secure than Rashford and maybe Gabbi now too..?

      Sanchez seems essential. Jesus vs other forward is up to you.

    Is having both Sanchez and Hazard worth it on WC, Or Sanchez 36 -> Haz 37?

    On a wildcard this GW, should I transfer in guys that might rise, even though I won't necessarily keep them?
