Crystal Palace face Brighton and Hove Albion at Selhurst Park in the second of four Premier League matches to take place on Sunday.

Kick-off in the M23 derby is at 14:00 BST.

All four of the players who have double-digit ownerships from these two teams start this afternoon.

Three of them were doubts for this fixture, be it through injury or rotation risk.

Tyrick Mitchell (£4.2m) sees off the challenge of Patrick van Aanholt (£5.4m) at left-back for now, with the fit-again Dutchman only among the substitutes.

Tariq Lamptey (£4.7m) and Wilfried Zaha (£7.2m) were both flagged with injuries in Fantasy Premier League but the pair are passed fit to feature.

Mathew Ryan (£4.5m), Albion’s most-owned FPL asset, is between the posts again as expected.

Crystal Palace have made four changes in all to the side that were thrashed by Chelsea before the international break.

Gary Cahill (£4.5m) is back after a long-term lay-off and replaces Mamadou Sakho (£4.5m) at centre-half, while Jeffrey Schlupp (£5.5m) is in for Eberechi Eze (£5.9m) down the Eagles’ left flank.

Jordan Ayew (£5.8m) isn’t in the Palace squad, so Michy Batshuayi (£5.8m) joins Zaha in a two-man attack.

The injured James McCarthy (£4.5m) is replaced by Jairo Riedewald (£4.4m) in the middle of the park, while new signing Nathaniel Clyne (£4.5m) is on the bench.

Brighton make two changes to the team that lost 4-2 against Everton last time out.

Dan Burn (£4.4m) and Adam Lallana (£6.3m) come into the visitors’ starting XI, with Steven Alzate (£4.5m) and Aaron Connolly (£5.5m) dropping to the bench – possibly as a result of their exertions with their respective countries over the international break.


Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; Mitchell, Cahill, Kouyaté, J Ward; Schlupp, McArthur, Riedewald, Townsend; Zaha, Batshuayi.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Ryan; Webster, Dunk, White; Burn, Bissouma, Lallana, Lamptey; Trossard, Maupay, March.

  2. DAZZ
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Zaha keepers finally rewarded after 2 blanks

  3. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Fck you everyone who instructed me to lose Zaha for Grealish!

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      You didn’t have to listen 😉

      1. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Ofc I know that but when 20 people comment why you have Zaha take Grealish, and it happened over and over again. Now Wilf will score a fckin hattrick.

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Blame yourself for getting rid before Brighton

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        And its not like Grealish has already played

    3. Vlekz
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Don't ask for free advice then

    4. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Grealish hasn't played yet, he may double Zaha's score.Plus you made the move you can't blame other people.

    5. Dexters Laboratory
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Sell Grealish for Zaha for a -4 hit

    6. liner
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Its not like it should be ur decision?

    7. MINUS FOUR
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Ever thought about making your own decisions based on your own reasoning? It's liberating.

    8. Amsterhammer
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      He always scores against Brighton.

    9. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Hahahaha

  4. Brosstan
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Having penalty takers is quite tortuous but it normally works out well! Cheers Wilf

  5. The Train Driver
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    If that's a pen, we would have min 6 pen per game, so stupid...

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Ridiculous decision.

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      It's stupid because VAR won't overturn one like that but refs won't give 'em 9 times out of 10.

    3. Brosstan
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      It's a problem with VAR. Refs know that VAR will bail them out if it's a clear dive so they are softer on the whistle, less afraid to be tricked. But then VAR in turn are too rigid on what constitutes a 'clear and obvious error' so they never overturn those soft decisions

      1. bOttOmEdpOstrEpliEr.
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Exactly this.

  6. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Flashscore said Batsman scored penalty, my hearth almost stopped. then they changed fast

  7. SteJ
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    And the quest for a gk clean sheet continues for another week

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      You won't get any with Ryan

    2. SteJ
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      And a gk booking too. Fml

  8. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Is Maupay worth 0.6 over Watkins?

    1. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      No

    2. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      I don’t think so, the stats are very close for now.

    3. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Depends how you use the money...probably not. Maupay on penalties though...

    4. ReindeerHotdog
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      With the players supporting Watkins I think he's a no brainer for 6m.

  9. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Unbelievable!!! Something positive!

  10. Don Kloppeone
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    It would be Zaha!

  11. Pariße
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    That’s a pen and the high foot at City-Arsenal wasn’t.

    1. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      How is that a penalty?

      1. Pariße
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        I was being sarcastic of how inconsistent the refs are.

  12. Salah’s Sonnet
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    God i hate Zaha

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Love him 🙂

  13. Stupendous
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    I knew it!!!! Goodness.

    Dont go Zaha on WC they said.

    Pulisic over Zaha worked a treat.

    Why do I not trust my own instincts???

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Zaha looks awful

      Palace look worse

      But I guess that was part of the thinking in getting him, he might at least score a pen or 2

      1. The Sociologist
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        The stats aren’t brilliant, was just hoping for pens to tide me over this next week or so whilst KDB our.

    2. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Yep Grealish over Zaha smart people here whenever I listen to advices here I end up losing points

      1. Winston.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Just one GW...

    3. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Because it’s one gameweek? Pulisic is always a better choice than him

      1. Brosstan
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Pulisic is another injury waiting to happen

  14. nerd_is_the_werd
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    That's not a penalty.

    1. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Agree

      1. Winston.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Lucky Zaha

  15. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    What do you think ? A or B ?
    A. Fernandes + Werner
    B. Havertz + Kane

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      A

  16. Traction Engine Foot
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Did Ryan get booked?

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Yes.

    2. TRIPOS TOPPER
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      yep

  17. The Sociologist
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Yessss he’s on pens!

  18. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Saw the replay, soft penalty imo

  19. Niho992
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Lamptey will get assist for that right ?

  20. JJO
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    I faking hate this game
    Every wc decision i made backfired
    Last day changes were Taa and Neto instead of Robertson and Zaha

    1. TRIPOS TOPPER
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      if you watch the games you can see Robbo getting forward much more than TAA
      Neto is a waste of a Liverpool spot

    2. Brosstan
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Tbh that was an awful decision mate.. Robbo has looked much better than trent and Neto is a rotation risk

  21. Goodricke
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    So Werner, Digne and Zaha were axed in my wildcard. I hate this game.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      The game has zero point to it

      1. Hughes Your Daddy
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Not if you have Zaha and Mitchell

  22. ivantys
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Kevin friend's the VAR, he must have zaha in his fpl team.

  23. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Werner + Zaha > Son + Watkins looking like a disaster in FanTeam already.

    I need to just not make transfers apparently...

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      I was tempted to sell Werner in FanTeam but luckily kept him.

      Will you play CL Fanteam?

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        No. I have so many FanTeam drafts for PL that I don't really feel like doing CL research. It takes too long.

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 17 Years
          5 years, 10 months ago

          Cheers, I am tempted though

  24. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Mitchel looking lively too

  25. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Lol think I've got 2 CSs in total this season

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      average is most that 3.5 goals per game, of course you have 2 CS

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        I'll add 'defenders who have returned anything' in that case.

  26. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Aw F off, outside chance of a Lamptey CS would’ve been lovely.

    I guess nobody gets CS anymore

    1. Niho992
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Mitchell owners will

  27. Kodap
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    How is that a Penalty, lol...

    Lamptey CS wiped! Another depressing GW..

    1. Zimo
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Just that kind of season. Soft penalties in every game.

  28. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 10 months ago

    Who do I dig myself out from this mess?

    No wildcard, 1ft and 0.8itb

    Martinez
    Taa-Saiss-Lamptey (James,Mitchell)
    Salah-Sterling-Son-Foden-Podence
    Dcl-Jimenez (Brew)

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Nothing wrong with it

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Getting rid of Podence will be a good start

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah. Might keep him one more gw and ship out for free next gw and go for 343

    3. Brosstan
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 10 months ago

      Just sit...fine team

      1. Brosstan
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 10 months ago

        Wait for 2 FTs then remove james and Podence

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 10 months ago

          Cheers. Will do that

  29. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  30. @persecuted_by_mods
    5 years, 10 months ago
