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.

  1. RAFA THE GAFFA

    6 years, 4 months ago

    Pulisic+Tammy >> Grealish+Rashford tonight for free? Yay or nay?

    Pope
    Soy • Lundy • Aurier • Rico
    Son • KDB • Maddy • Pulisic
    Vardy • Tammy
    (McGov. Greeny. Mané. TAA)

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Tammy? Can you just do Grealish - feels a bit rash (excuse the pun). But granted I'd get him if I had another ft.

      1. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Tempted to play Greenwood over Soy?

        1. RAFA THE GAFFA
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          Depends on my moves. Soy is benched atm

        2. Clintymints
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          Currently have this atm

          I usually set my team really early as the decision is based on gut feeling, then re-access during the week

          Still on Greenwood atm

      2. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Only way to get him. Will likely captain if I do. Tricky one though

    2. Teomi
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Im not a fan of selling Tammy, could easily backfire. Chelsea is still a great attacking side

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Would you do this then?

        Pulisic+Maddy >> Grealish+Alli

        1. Teomi
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          Do you have a lot of money banked in Mané?

          1. RAFA THE GAFFA
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 4 months ago

            Got him at 11.6

            1. Teomi
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 4 months ago

              Ok I see... otherwise mane to Alli would be a good 2 week punt and then get mane or Salah back for gw 19

  2. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Only good thing to be said about that half is, the second has to be better.

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Some terrible Televised games this weekend

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      It won't. This is Palace.

      They could be 7th after this game, and this style of football is how they're doing it. Ugly, but effective.

      1. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        So I should turn off now? 🙂

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          There won't be (m)any clear opportunities. Depends what entertains you. I like watching the tactical battle.

          1. Ask Yourself
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 4 months ago

            Watching for the tactical battle whenever palace play is like pooing in your hands and clapping

  3. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone know the site that gives you your team and league stats? Homepage has two boxes, red and blue I think, to enter the code for either your team or league?
    I can’t remember it and been searching for 5 mins.
    It’s not fpllive

    1. Gaddafi
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Have you tried fpllive?

      1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        It’s not the one, i just looked on that

        1. Gaddafi

      livefpl

    3. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      It has a banner with eg most points, most clean sheets etc at the top of the league analysis page
      Background is black I think

      1. The FPL Units
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        how about this:

  4. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Need Brighton and Zaha goals 2nd half..... sorry FFS

  5. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    This is beautiful ugly football from Palace. Brighton can't penetrate through their deep 442 block of man flesh. All they need is a lucky break on the counter and this game is theirs.

  6. TheDragon
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    I can’t take another Kelly 8 pointer on my bench

    1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Me too.....

  7. Wensink
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Brighton with 68% possession that half. I just need to accept that Palace won’t keep a clean sheet.

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      This is what palace do. They will probably break and win 1-0

    2. AriseSirGiggsy
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Why? No clear chances barely any half chances

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Possession has no correlation with goals.

      1. Wensink
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Trossard looks lively. Reckon the goal comes from him.

  8. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Richarlison or Moura?

    1. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Richarlison

      Alli and Son from the Spurs mids

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Ta

  9. Je suis le chat
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Nick Tanner surely going to retake the fpl lead after tonight. Ironic he had no Pool assets as a former Kop legend.

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Leg end maybe

  10. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    0-0 at odds of 4-1 is practically giving money away.

    1. AriseSirGiggsy
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Available now?

      1. GENERATION X
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        9-4 now I got 4s after 30 minutes in play

        1. AriseSirGiggsy
          • 15 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          Ah ok
          I’m only offered 12/5

    2. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Can't be right?

      1. GENERATION X
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        See above.

  11. grooveymatt65
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Who would be worth getting from Everton then, if they get Ancelotti?

    1. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Richarlison

    2. AriseSirGiggsy
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      An Italian-speaking psychiatrist?

    3. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Overrated manager with a very short shelf life

      Everton should go nowhere near him

      1. Tcheco
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        3x Champions league winner. Surely you're joking..

      2. el polako
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Cant be bothered to go on google but pretty sure that apart from maybe Pep and Jose no other manager in PL have more trophies under his belt.
        Ancelotti is one of the very best managers in recent memory and deserves bit respect.

    4. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Higuain

    5. The Gobstopper
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Was just going to post this question as well. Tactically, I'm thinking that Digne could be revitalized. And if he does go with a 4-4-2 format, I'm wondering if he might be inclined to use Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison at the top (or maybe even Kean with Richarlison).

  12. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    I would be very surprised if Palace keeps the cleanie

  13. Collie01
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    A late Brighton goal would be nice.

  14. Babelcopter
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Hold Kelly! CS would be so tasty!

  15. Release The Ox
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Pope
    Kelly Lundstram Webster
    Cantwell Pulisic Sterling Zaha
    Ings Jiminez Vardy

    Button Soyuncu TAA Salah

    Have 2 FT's and 2mil in the bank. Here's my options:

    1) Sterling and Pulisic ->Son and KDB
    2)Sterling and TAA-> Son and Doherty
    3) Pulisic and Cantwell -> Grealish and Martial
    4) Any other suggestions

    Want rid of Sterling as he's not producing enough for his price and has a suspension/rotation looming over him.

    1. Arse Craic
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      1

    2. Karhumies
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      1

    3. Release The Ox
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Cheers fellas

    4. Karhumies
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Webster to Rico
      Zaha to Grealish or Cantwell to Traore

  16. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Zaha will never leave palace. That is his quality, how mad would someone have to be to fork out 50mil plus on that. Only an idiot would sign him

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      So Arsenal or United then.

  17. Athletic Nasherbo
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    TAA + Mount > Otamendi + Richarlison 2FT?

    1. Rash
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Would not recommend bringing in otamendi

  18. andres
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Hedno
    Kelly Soy Lund
    Cantwell Alli Son Madds
    Rash Vardy abraham

    TAA, mane, Pieters 0.6 ITB 1FT.

    A madds to grilish
    B taa/madds to kdb/5.2 def (-4)
    C other

  19. FPL FREAK
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Whom to get from the following :

    Cahill

    Basham/ Eagen

    Saiss

    Fernández (new castle)

    My budget is 4.5
    I need a good cleansheet getter... Iam thinking of getting Cahill.. He hasn't played today but might play few upcoming matches...

    What do u say...??

    Good cheap defender for playing 11...?? Budget 4.5...

    Needed to replace lescalles...

    WC TEAM:

    Gazzaniga. Button.
    Lescalles. Lundstram. Rico. Kelly. Reid.
    Mane. KDB. Son. Alli. Hayden.
    Vardy. Abraham. Rashford.

    1. FPL FREAK
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Guys anyone...??

      1. Arse Craic
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Targett

  20. Pumpkinhead
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    This game ending 0-0 would be the worst possible score line for me.

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Same, I’m one point above cup rival. I have zaha, him jelly, dunk and Ryan. Not a snowballs chance in hell with this sack of onions playing for me

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Him kelly

        1. TheDragon
          • 8 Years

          I’m Jelly what am I

  21. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Palace have to be one of the most boring teams going right now. They just seem to sit back and settle for the 0-0, sitting back at home like this is frankly embarrassing. Impressed with Brighton, they seem to at least have something about them, having a go home and away.

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Cue Palace winning this game 1-0

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Cue Brighton win 1-0

    3. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Results are not embarrassing

    4. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      They're missing like half their squad, it's damage control

  22. JohnnyCroat
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    By the way... Kelly getting 6 goes down to goals scored (2 each), goals conceded (6 each once subs are on)... eeep! Coin toss! Need that 1BP

  23. Rash
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Need kelly red card/og/brighton to score 4 for me to progress in the fpl cup. #clutching

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Lol - looking good then

      1. Rash
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Scored 70 this week but going to get pipped by someone ranked 4m

        1. TheDragon
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          The magic of the cup

          The cup is genuinely harder to win than FPL itself

  24. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Who are first choice at the back for palace?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Ward Cahill Tomkins/Sakho PVA.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Not Dann then?

  25. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Don't mind Gualta getting a CS with an ownership of one in fifty. But Kelly's one in three, different story.

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Ryan too

  26. circusmonkey
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Greetings from Casablanca. Keysxand Gray at half time on beinsport. Can't beat them.

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      With special guest Ron Atkinson

    2. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Those two are not worth a hill of beans. 🙂

  27. Freund88
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Grealish or martial for next 5 gws?

    Or recommend another from a team that’s not spurs/Chelsea/city

    1. Tcheco
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Richarlison 😉

  28. Mind över Mata
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    A) TAA and Pulisic -> Aurier and Alli (-4)

    B) Pulisic -> Grealish

    Any thoughts?

  29. Pep's Money Laundry
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Getting Zaha a couple of weeks ago was a big mistake, to make things worse I started Zaha instead of Webster.

  30. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone looking at Kane for the Xmas period too? Often explodes

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I was strongly considering it, but requires a hit, whereas Son is a FT (both using Salah as makeweight)

    2. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Toying with a Son Ali Moura triple up
