The Fantasy focus is on Chelsea in the opening round of Gameweek 34+ matches as they travel to face Crystal Palace.

Willian (£7.2m) and Christian Pulisic (£7.2m) have both received plenty of transfer attention in recent weeks having returned points in each of their last three matches.

The Brazilian has dispatched a penalty in each of those, registering two double-digit hauls and averaging 11 points per game.

Pulisic has been a little less explosive, earning Fantasy assists for being fouled in each of the last three, making for an average of seven points per game.

As has been usual since the Premier League resumed, the two players flank Olivier Giroud (£6.6m) in Chelsea’s front-three, who scored in the 3-0 win over Watford.

Of particular interest is a start for Billy Gilmour (£4.3m) in Chelsea’s midfield, although it is only his second of the season and first since Gameweek 29.

Roy Hodgson’s Crystal Palace contains fewer points of interest for Fantasy managers, with Jordan Ayew (£5.2m) and Wilfried Zaha (£6.6m) deployed either side of Christian Benteke (£5.7m) in attack.

Meanwhile, Watford host Norwich in what appears to be one of Gameweek 34+’s “gimme” fixtures.

The Canaries have been shipping goals since the Premier League restart and are yet to score.

There will be some interest in Craig Dawson (£4.8m) who has registered the joint-highest number of shots in the box of any defender over the last four matches, his total of seven more than any Watford player too.

There is a rare start for Danny Welbeck (£5.8m) on the flanks of the attack while Troy Deeney (£6.2m) holds down his centre-forward role.

Full Line-Ups

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; van Aanholt, Dann, Cahill, J Ward; McArthur, Milivojevic, Kouyaté; Ayew, Benteke, Zaha.

Chelsea XI: Arrizabalaga; Azpilicueta, Zouma, Christensen, R James; Gilmour, Barkley, Mount; Pulisic, Giroud, Willian.

Watford XI: Foster; Masina, Dawson, Kabasele, Femenía; Hughes, Capoue; Welbeck, Doucouré, Sarr; Deeney.

Norwich City XI: Krul; Lewis, Klose, Godfrey, Aarons; Tettey, Vrancic; O Hernández, Stiepermann, Buendía; Pukki.

    1. Supertrooper
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 19 days ago

    4. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 19 days ago

      Pickford way better. Pickford makes some odd decisions, but at least he saves shots on target.

    5. Supertrooper
      • 13 Years

      Kepa

      1. FPL Daniel

    eesh. my pathological avoidance of Chelsea wingers is not helping me right now

  17. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 19 days ago

    Kepa won't want to see the replay

  18. It’s gonna Ben Mee

    Rocket!

    Oh as if Pulisic scores too, after the best gameweek ever this is already one of the worst

    Palace have been one of the most boring teams for a while

    Setup so defensively but never seem to get criticised

    They have some decent attackers too. Evident for what Zaha did but team is so limited by the tactics

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 19 days ago

      It's also limited by the players, look at that defense and midfield!

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 19 days ago

      Zaha is overrated. Inconsistent. If he was that good he wouldn't be with Palace.

      1. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 19 days ago

        Wrong.

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Explain? Not lacking talent, far from it. Why did Ferguson let him go? Why are big clubs not falling over themselves to sign him?

  21. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years
    6 years, 19 days ago

    I was so wrong. I said 2 SoT and Kepa will concede. I was so optimistic. He cocneded 3 goals from 3 SoT against West Ham!!!

  22. BeaversWithAttitude
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 19 days ago

    Wilf!

  23. WVA

    How much was Kept? £7?

  24. Zilla
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 19 days ago

    lol at me for owning Chelsea defence with Kepa in goal

  25. Scholes Out For Summer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 19 days ago

    Pulisic on free kicks now?!

  26. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years

    Is Zaha also looking for new contracts?

    1. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years

      is there a time when he isn't 🙂

        6 years, 19 days ago

        Gotham is a top series bro.

  28. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 19 days ago

    Imagine blaming that on kepa

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 19 days ago

      Insanity

    2. Supertrooper
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 19 days ago

      Shot straight at goal, any capable gk would save that

  29. Srv210

    Kripa has been so poor ,now I'm questioning whether the guy was even good at bilbao ?

  30. The Train Driver
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 19 days ago

    Feels like I need to take a risk to catch up 50 pts. Thinking DCL+Jimi to Gayle+Vardy next week and C Vardy.

    Foolish?
