Fantasy Premier League’s top two points scorers are in action at Selhurst Park this afternoon in the second of five matches to take place on Sunday.

Kick-off is at 14:15 GMT.

Son Heung-min (£9.6m), FPL’s newly crowned most-owned player, and Harry Kane (£10.9m) have already plundered 198 points between this season and both start, as expected, in south London.

Jose Mourinho has made only one change to his line-up from the side that defeated Arsenal last weekend, with Tanguy Ndombele (£5.9m) replacing Giovani Lo Celso (£6.9m).

Gareth Bale (£9.4m) isn’t part of the visitors’ matchday squad but Dele Alli (£7.4m) makes the bench, having been out in the cold on the domestic front since Gameweek 4.

Bale is apparently absent through illness.

The Palace team news is even more straightforward, with Roy Hodgson unsurprisingly naming the same starting XI that thrashed West Bromwich Albion in Gameweek 11.

Tyrick Mitchell (£4.0m) was sent home from training on Friday with an illness and misses out, although the budget FPL defender has only made Hodgson’s 18-man squad once since Gameweek 6 anyway.

Along with Kane and Son, Wilfried Zaha is among the top five FPL players for points per match.

The Ivory Coast international averages exactly 8.0 points per game in 2020/21, with three double-digit hauls to his name already – although all of those have come away from home.

A further 287,699 FPL managers brought Zaha into their squads ahead of Friday’s deadline and the Palace talisman is already the most-bought player of Gameweek 13, too.


Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Clyne, Kouyaté, Cahill, Van Aanholt, Schlupp, McArthur, Milivojevic, Eze, Zaha, Benteke.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Aurier, Alderweireld, Dier, Reguilon, Hojbjerg, Sissoko, Ndombele, Bergwijn, Son, Kane.

  3. g40steve
    • 8 Years

    Bergwijn is very over rated player the amount of missed passes today is shocking

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Just like Havertz

    2. F_Ivanovic
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

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

      No Mitro in the squad at all?

    6. Andy'81
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      The have to be ghost teams with him now surely?

    2. The Final Boss
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      How quickly a tallisman became nolisman?

    3. Z
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      There are rumors that Wolfs wnat him

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        I can see him doing well there!

        1. Z
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Me too, but only rumors (he speaks portugies hahahah)

  7. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    No Kelleher gets me Martínez off the bench. Finally some luck 😳

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      So scrawny

  8. ☈☾
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Yesss Son 0 baps

    1. The Final Boss
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Is he subbed?

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      All he deserves

  9. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    That Kane goal has pushed me down by 190 K. C'mon Salah and Vardy. Time for some revenge!

    1. Z
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I am in plus 10k, coz of Dier + Regulion (so far)

  10. Hect.OR 98th
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Suggestions for a 4th mid to replace Jota?

    Have 6.8, value 0.8 to spend, so Zaha is around the top of my budget, but also looking at Groß and Soucek to give me funds to upgrade Mitchell to a playing defender over Christmas.

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I like Mount personally

      1. Z
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Mount is nice pick

      2. Hect.OR 98th
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers. Hadn't considered him.

        1. Forever In Our Shadow
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Doesnt score many points though. He is an assister of the assister.

      3. Goodricke
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Someone recommended Pascal Groß to me earlier.

        Tiny ownership (0.6%), on pens and corners and against Fulham and Sheffield in the next 2 fixtures.

        I jumped on it!

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Zaha, Bowen, Neto, Soucek, Lookman all could work

    3. F_Ivanovic
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Bowen has to be top of the list. Best fixtures, DGW. 2nd most points out of that bracket behind Zaha who has really bad fixtures.

    4. TKC07
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Greenwood

  11. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Son assist only won’t be enough for BAPs right?

    1. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Hope so

    2. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      click on the game and check the bps ... no hope

    3. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Nope unless Spurs CS is wiped

  12. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Top 10k average 42 points atm

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Wow

  13. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Will feel like I got out of jail if the score stays like this - but bound to be at least another return for Kane & Son I bet 🙁

  14. WVA
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    So glad the suffering of this he ends today

  15. Cruyff Turn
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Salah starts 🙁

    I own him, but I've capped Mane. Massive drop if Salah explodes...

    1. Ragabolly
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      No, you gain rank from both. Marginal gain from Salah, significant gains from Mane

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Hardly. Salah has under 100% EO this week. You want both to do well.

  16. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Jota??

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Lol

    2. Z
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      RIP

  17. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    BPS system absolutely loves Kane.

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

      27 BPS for Guaita being Guaita helps.

      He’s good in other departments in general too.

    2. MagicMessi
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Winning goal simply ?

    3. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Of course he drops so deep and links up play. Every little pass counts.

  18. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Jota out for 6 to 8 weeks

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Serves Klopp right for playing him in a game that didn't matter.

      1. F_Ivanovic
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        another idiot with no brain.

        1. Isco Disco
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          If you’re that smart then please explain why did Klopp play one of his best in form players in the dead rubber CL tie?

    2. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Klopp does not have a mirror apparently.

  19. WVA
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Jammy bench points everywhere, makes me sick lol

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Not for me. But I never brought Soucek in to play so happy I have a bench player who could bring in more than a 2 pointer if needed.

  20. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Celso coming on

  21. NorwichCityLad
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Which jota replacement?

    A)Bowen

    B)Grealish

  22. DAZZ
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    How is a back line with Aurier and Dier so solid. Jeeez

    1. Z
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      MOURINHO!
      He even makes Aurier decent def player

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      This! Aurier was awful and don't get me started on Dier

  23. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Hope Kane does not rise before Wednesday. Planning Vardy + Podence + Lamptey to Kane + Soucek + Lewis for -4 to give me this 11:

    Martinez
    James Dallas Coufal
    Salah KDB Bruno Son
    Kane Bamford

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Soucek* 5th mid

    2. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Unlikely not to imo.

  24. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Jota on bench, I get Soucek points off the bench. That is the best start for the Liverpool game.

    1. Dannyb
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Same, very happy with that jam

      1. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        And Salah captain here. Good times here.

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Disgraceful bench points

    3. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Luck. I never get it

  25. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Palace actually getting a couple of decisions now.

  26. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    @Kaptain Kane. Where's my big money?

    fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2020/12/11/gameweek-12-scout-picks-built-on-liverpool-spurs-and-leeds/?hc_page=9&hc_sort_by=comment_date#hc_comment_22942147

    jk. But I look forward to the game. Should be a good one.

    1. Z
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Well....there is nobody else left to play 🙁

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah I don't think it's a huge achievement or anything. Team was pretty straightforward I think. Klopp simply doesn't have options due to injuries.

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Shout Camzy, hope Salah makes it to 60!

  27. Ha.
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Where do I request another Son/Kane goal?

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

      Son winning a pen on Wednesday.

  28. Chalobah's Witness
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Jota's injury is breaking my personal dream team.
    I just can't afford Salah with KDB, Bruno, Son and Kane and I'm not willing to get rid of one of these.

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Salah > Kev

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Get rid of KDB for Salah!

    3. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Get rid of Salah or KDB. Preferably sacrifice KDB. Thank me later.

  29. Londongeezaa
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Could do with a Palace goal to kick start the deadly duo.

  30. WVA
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Need a Son goal with no Kane involvement, don't think that's possible though

    1. TKC07
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Tough one. Has to be an OG.
