Dugout Discussion – Chelsea vs Crystal Palace

10 March 2018 1519 comments

Mark

Saturday’s matches conclude at Stamford Bridge with champions Chelsea hosting relegation-threatened Crystal Palace.

There is plenty of interest from a Fantasy perspective, with Willian heading into the encounter as the third most signed player ahead of today’s deadline.

He has over 100,000 new owners and boasts three goals and three assists from his last five Gameweek starts, one of which was a 32-minute appearance at Watford.

The Brazilian is now in 11% of Fantasy Premier League squads, which surprisingly dwarfs the 7.6% recorded by team-mate Eden Hazard.

The Belgian will be fancied ahead of this evening’s kick-off, having scored six goals in his last eight Gameweek starts. He has been spared the false nine role, with Antonio Conte opting for Olivier Giroud over Alvaro Morata to lead his attack.

N’Golo Kante returns in the Chelsea midfield, which will doubtless boost their clean sheet prospects. Conte’s backline have kept five shut-outs in their last six Stamford Bridge outings.

Only six starters for gw31:
(no GK) // VVD // Salah, Shaqiri, Mili // Wilson, Firmino

Have 2FTs
1) Elliot, Ogbonna > Hennessey, Bauer
2) Elliot, Duffy > Lossl, Tomkins
3) Elliot, Duffy, Sterling > Hennessey, Bauer, Zaha (-4)
4) Elliot, Duffy, Sterling > Lossl, Ake, Stanislas (-4)
Lots of options here, but so I'm definitely open to other ideas.

Maguire is the most annoying player for me this season. I got him for the last 3 GWs for Alonso over Davies because I was afraid of rotation.

He had excellent fixtures but returned 2 points in all 3 🙁

This is the second time I got him and the first was no different, all blanks as well. I had it with him or any other Leicester defender.

Such a frustrating game. Plan well, get a lot of blank players in and think I won’t need hits. Then Walcott does that today.

Slowly narrowing down the GW31 potentials (of what there is)

Considering:
Stanislas,Zanka,Schindler,Zaha,Mounie,King,Tosun

Not Considering:
Benteke
