The key Fantasy Premier League assets all start for Crystal Palace against Brighton.

Wilfried Zaha (£6.7m), Martin Kelly (£4.3m) and Vicente Guaita (£5.1m) have all survived a recent wave of injuries.

Roy Hodgson is without Patrick van Aanholt (£5.5m), Joel Ward (£4.4m) and Jeffrey Schlupp (£5.5m) through injury while Mamadou Sakho (£5.0m) is serving the second of a three-match suspension.

However, Andros Townsend (£5.6m) and Gary Cahill (£4.5m) are missing from the team.

Meanwhile, Neal Maupay (£5.8m) starts up-front for Brighton while Yves Bissouma (£5.0m) gets a rare appearance in central midfield.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; Riedewald, Dann, Tomkins, M Kelly; McArthur, Milivojevic, Kouyaté; Zaha, Benteke, Ayew.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Ryan, Montoya, Webster, Dunk, Burn, Pröpper, Bissouma, Mooy, Groß, Maupay, Trossard.

    What are people doing with Liverpool defenders... time to ditch?

    1. BNMC
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      I want to do Robbo out to get money to upgrade my front line but it would cost me -4. If I keep Robbo, I'd have to play Soyuncu (mci).

      I'm thinking long-term though. I would not want a LIV defender until at least GW25.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      keeping TAA

    3. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Keeping taa atm.
      Just because i don't have a FT to burn though 😀

    4. IRBOX ⚽
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Ditching Trent. Will get him back around GW24. Just not providing value this season despite his attacking prowess. With difficult fixtures I would rather load up on attack and go cheap defensively

    5. FCSB
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      TAA or Robbo are season keepers imo... pretty fixture proof

      1. troller
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        LOL

    6. Crazygopher
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Wild carded got rid of taa and rob. Kept salah

    7. waldo666
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Doubled up from the start with VVD and TAA, dumped VVD a long time ago now and have zero inclination to double up again. WC soon and hard questions will be asked of TAA then, leaning to keeping at this stage though.

  2. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    A. Keep Zaha
    B. Zaha to KDB for -4

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      A

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      A but might sell for Grealish depending on tonight's performance

  3. rokonto
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    Is it only 2 games left for the 5 yellow cards ban?

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

  4. Forza Papac

    American ads: Fast food (which looks way better than we have in the UK), movie trailer, State Farm, TRUCKS

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      As a Brit who has been in America for 20 years ... stick with your fast food. American fast food is horrific.

      1. Forza Papac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Interesting. How so?

        1. Bushwhacker
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Well largely because we have almost no regulation on food here compared with Europe, so heaven only knows what you’re eating but usually it gives me a stomach ache! Not across the board, Chik FilA is great .... but most doesn’t look like the ad (same worldwide) and makes you regret it shortly after!

        2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

          They give the cows steroids

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      I love watching NBC for matches at the weekends - the ads are absolutely top notch... the one with the ex NFL player selling Testosterone supplements is peak humankind lol

      1. Red Card Rockets

        Yank here, like reading these comments, smile

  5. afsr
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    G2G for GW18?

    Guaita
    Rico, Lundstram, Aurier
    Pulisic, KdB, Alli, Grealish
    Vardy, Rashford, Jimenez

    Button, Mane, Soy, Hanley
    0FT, 2.2 ITB

    Anyone else keeping Pulisic for SOU and ARS? Or should i get rid?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      nice team, for GW18 at least

  6. Bushwhacker
    • 6 Years

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Sticking on Rash?

        1. Amey
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Nope
          Vardy

  7. Amey
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    Everyone is taking hits this gw (most are at least).
    Should I take one too for Pope to Guaita (-4) ?? Just can't find a FT to swap them

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      nope

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Nah.

    3. waldo666
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      I wouldn't.

    4. Pukki Blinders
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Nope

    5. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      OMGuaita will pay it back for you in one game - do it 🙂

      1. Amey
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        😀
        Thanks MBP

    6. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Thank you all !
      It's tough to watch Guaita racking up points and I'm not having him 😀

    7. mookie
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Done it 3 GWs ago(Pope 7, Guaita 26).

      1. Amey
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Yes
        I'm sitting duck atm with Pope.
        Cheers mate. Might pull the trigger

    8. King Kohli
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Did Pope > Guaita three weeks ago and it's one of the best moves I've made all season.
      He's a beast!

      1. Amey
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Would you do it for hit ??

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          I stand by my original assessment 😉

        2. King Kohli
          • 13 Years

      1. Bushwhacker

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          You think so? I thought CPL attack was so bad and it was more like a 'parting gift' 😉

    3. waldo666
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      C

  9. Pukki Blinders
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    Think I'm in the minority here with 2 FTs yet no sure what do to with them... thinking just burn 1 FT this week with Pope to Guiata? Think I want to keep Liverpool assets as well.

    Pope Button
    TAA Aurier Soy Lundy Rico
    Mane KDB Alli Martial Hayden
    Jimi Vardy Tammy

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years

      Hayden to Dendo if you're playing that spot this week

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        He plays CB though

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          I see..so he scored against WHU from CB position?

      • 16 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Don’t WC with just one GK imo

      I’m also not a fan of that defence at all, and benching one of Grealish & Jota every week seems odd

      But each to their own - GL 🙂

      1. Crazygopher
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks for the reply.was thinking of getting in Martin for button. Have 0.1 Defence is weak. But good fixtures Am looking to get liverpool back gw24. So rash to maupay and up grade targett to taa or rob.

    2. Bronski
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Get Guaita in nets

  13. Sloane426

    Targett nailed?

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Yep
      Gunning for another 40-70 pointer gw 😛

      1. Sloane426
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Aurier or Targett?

        1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Aurier. Villa suck

          1. Amey
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 3 months ago

            Yep

    Gazza
    Lundstram Kelly Rico Soyuncu
    KdB Son Alli Zaha
    Vardy Abraham

    McGovern; Greenwood, Mane, TAA

    1FT 0.9ITB

    What's the move here?

    A) Greenwood -> Ayew/Mousset
    B) Mane -> Sterling/Grealish/Richarlison/Martial
    C) Greenwood -> Jimenez & TAA -> Baldock -4

    Actually prefer C at the moment. Thoughts? No WC left.

    1. Bronski
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Why selling Greenwood likely to get gametime and good goals per minute ratio?

  15. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    GW18 - Jesus​, TAA, Robbo, Zaha to Kane, KDB, Aurier, 3.9
    GW19 - Mane to Salah?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Not sure about Jesus to Kane

  16. KendrickLlama
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    Any thoughts appreciated! 2 FT and 0.1 ITB

    Henderson McGovern
    Lundstram Soy Kelly Tomori TAA
    Pulisic Maddison KDB Alli Mane
    Mousset Vardy Jimenez

    Feel its time to ditch TAA but also missing a decent strike force

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Mousset, Pulisic, Trent to Rashford, Fleck, Aurier for -4pts?

  17. camarozz

    (can't sleep)

    Couple of choices here

    2fts 0.8itb

    A) Tieleman/Pulisic➡️
    Richarlson/Grealish

    B) Mings/Pulisic/Mousset ➡️ Aurier/Grealish/Jota - 4

    Benching TAA + Mane

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      B

  18. melvinmbabazi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    Mane to KDB

    Yes or No?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      No

    2. Crossologist
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Pondering the same here but would lose a bit of value, previous time i thought KDB would drop then cost me 0.3 to bring him back in, so probably just holding

      1. Crossologist
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        So No i guess

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Yep - Salah is back

    4. waldo666
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

    5. jia you
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Yup had full value tied up in Mane and still made the move, points over pounds 🙂

  19. Holmes
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    Would like to have a front four of Vardy, Jimenez, Jota, Maupay! 😮

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Why Jota? 11 blanks in 13 starts!

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Playing better now, injury-free

      2. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        He started poorly last season, then scored great and consistently once he found his feet.

        Most of us hoping it’s the same scenario. Brace week before last, then a hat trick mid week Europa, improves stats, passing eye test, playing Norwich in the blank.

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Norwich will do well against Wolves though for my money, looked extremely focused & well drilled v Leicester for full 90 minutes

      3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Fair enough, interesting

        6.1 is very cheap

    2. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Maupay is interesting one.

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        No double digit score yet but what to expect at that price

        1. Amey
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Yes.
          Gets lots of chances. Wasteful at times.

    3. NABIL - FPL otai

      an EVE attacker could join the party

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Looking at Richarlison, any other player for watchlist?

        1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

    Son or Alli?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai

      6 years, 3 months ago

      Alli

  21. Magpies4ever

    Best 2 week punt for a midfielder without considering price?
    Have alli, martial, KDB and zaha

    1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Richarlison

    2. Bronski
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Son

  22. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years

    Best option for this team? 2 fts, 0.3m itb. OR 52k.

    Which combination looks better?

    A) Cahill + Alli
    B) AWB + Grealish, upgrade Ings -> Abraham in 19.

    1. Holmes

      Cahill is probably injured, so B

    Those next five fixtures in addition to his 8pts makes it difficult to shift Zaha now!
    Not a terrible complaint I guess but Richarlison and Dilva are tempting me!

    1. Bronski

      Resist the temptation Palace great run of fixtures

        will keep now, if he had blanked last night I'd be 50/50 on it 🙂

    Thoughts on getting Moura instead of Alli to double up with Son?

    1. Bronski
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Dele more nailed but both will get gametime over Christmas

    2. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 8 Years

      I might. 3 very good games and IT Will be one rotation at most if any.

    Best Keeper to replace Pope with?

    A) Ramsdale
    B) Guaita

    1. Kane Train
      • 11 Years

      Actually Guaita isn’t an option
