After yet another goal from Mohamed Salah in Liverpool’s draw at The Hawthorns, Saturday comes to an early conclusion as Watford entertain Crystal Palace at 3pm.

The Eagles’ duo Wilfried Zaha and Luka Milivojevic were among the top seven most bought players for a reduced Gameweek 35 that saw over 154,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Free Hit chips played.

More than 183,000 managers acquired Zaha, who has served up three goals and two assists in the last five Gameweeks, with 21 points in his previous two outings.

Meanwhile, dead-ball specialist Milivojevic has 38 points over the last four, supplementing three goals and a pair of assists with nine bonus in that run.

They now collide with a Hornets defence that’s conceded 30 goals in front of their own fans – no side have allowed more.

The hosts have failed to catch the eye in recent weeks, with Javi Gracia turning to a 4-4-2 today in an attempt to solve a run of three goals in the last five Gameweeks.

Roberto Pereyra’s form has been the one crumb of comfort – the former Juventus man has netted two of those strikes and is looking to score for the third successive match at Vicarage Road today.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Considering how awful these teams defensively and are the number of expected goals they should have conceded recently this was a pretty inevitable 0-0.

      zaha such a knee-jerk pick.Always picking players who braced / scored previous game

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        so annoying fell into that trap as my rival have him instead of getting shaq/tosun

        1. Ode
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          Lol Shaq & Tosun have been sh*t compared to Zaha

          1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 13 days ago

            shaqiri has more points than zaha this season.LOl and shaq has also hauled in last 2 too

            1. Ode
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 13 days ago

              You're probably the dumbest human being i've seen on this site

              1. Zaha has been injured most of the season

              2. Total points has no meaning over current form

              3. You just stated "Always picking players who braced / scored" and then said Shaqiri was a better option than in-form Zaha this week. Lmao

              3. If 5 & 6 points is a haul for you then you're probably not good at the game

              You're one of those casual players who doesn't actually watch PL games and just judges players based on their points. Also fix your name

              1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
                • 8 Years
                8 years, 13 days ago

                U knoobhead shut up. I never said Shaq was the best option and zaha was a bad option. Zaha wasn't injured last season and before season and has never crossed 150 points. U knoobhead shaqiri hit the post vs spurs and I am not saying based on seeing scores. What I am saying is we should not base selections just based on last game and I talking generally NOT about only zaha today. Then y was zaha not an attractive option for many with fixtures like liv(h), bha(h), bou(a) when people wilcarded in gw32.surely bha(h) is a bettee prospect than most of the rotation risk dgwers most had like willian and son. But y we only picked them because they hauled in the previous 2 matches.
                U are the Muppet seeing shaqiri's 5 and 6 pointer on live scores and not watching actual matches loool

        Zaha was a good pick. Team was hot, he was hot, and he is one of the leading attackers on his team. Not many goals in this fantasy sport, so hard to assume your pick will truly count.

        1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 13 days ago

          he has had only one brace all season and only one double digit haul all season and that was last week

          1. walkman666
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 13 days ago

            He’s been playing well. He has had recent form. Given our choices this week, and his price and opponent, it was a good option.

            1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 13 days ago

              if he had'nt braced last week would u have got him

              1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
                • 8 Years
                8 years, 13 days ago

                i.e. if he had blanked last week

              2. walkman666
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                8 years, 13 days ago

                Hard to say in hindsight. I look at history over several seasons, and he has 150 point type,totals. He’s a proven fantasy producer. Just not today. Also, even this season, which is not as productive, he is a leading goal plus assist scorer on his team.

                1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
                  • 8 Years
                  8 years, 13 days ago

                  he has never been a great fantasy option and has crossed 100 points only once .He is a class act but he was overhyped this week due that brace last week

                  1. Ode
                    • 8 Years
                    8 years, 13 days ago

                    Shaqiri has been a great fantasy option then?
