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.

    61 all out, time for salah to ruin my gw! Or at best, make it an average one.

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Good score that though

      1. jason_ni
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Yea, could have been a lot worse going into this liverpool game, have a bit of buffer from salah damage!

  7. Feloh
    • 9 Years

    Scout picks on 24 with salah(c), vardy and Robbo to go.

  8. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Son and Kane owners should thank Guaita for the points..

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      nah he is the reason Kane did not get hatty

  9. BigBillyBass
    • 7 Years

    Is Jota essential?

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

      As essential as Foden was

  10. potatoace
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Klopp.." [jota out] one and half, two months"

    1. Right In The Stanchion

      See below. Timing

  11. Right In The Stanchion
    • 6 Years

    Any news on how long Jota is out for??

    Thank you Soucek off the bench

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Around 2 months

  12. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    I just want Arsenal to sit in the bottom 3 at some point of the league. It'll make me happy.

    1. Right In The Stanchion
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Jealous rival fan?

      1. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        So jealous 😆

    2. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      We won’t. If we lose today, Arteta is sacked.

      1. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Man united fans shouldn’t laugh cause they aren’t in a better position than us.

        1. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          Nownow i have no vendetta. Just wanna mess with a friend.

        2. Rolls-Royce
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          lol. They are clearly in a better position than Arsenal or can you not even read the PL table?

          1. Qaiss
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 3 months ago

            They aren’t. They have a manager who isn’t taking them anywhere and they’ve spent a ton of money whilst he’s been there. Look at the point difference. It’s not impossible for us to finish above them.

            You just aren’t very smart.

          2. Qaiss
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 3 months ago

            Even the mods deleted your comments ye sad little man

      2. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Mikaela Farteta won’t get sacked yet

        1. Qaiss
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          He will if we lose today.

    3. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      No points today and I'd say its pretty likely with our upcoming fixtures

      1. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        I will pray for a speedy recovery for u guys as soon as u hit 17th 😛 i just wanna annoy a friend.

  13. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Robbo a serious differential here. He's basically the only Liverpool defender that is relatively highly owned, but still only 20%.

  14. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Jota->

    A) Gross
    B) Soucek

    1. Vazza
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Soucek

    2. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Soucek and spend the balance wisely

    3. Reeker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      B. Use the funds elsewhere

    4. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Gross

    5. dunas_dog

      A

  15. WVA

    What does it feel like to me in the top million overall?

    1. CaptMidnight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Not that special tbh.

    2. Steve Chance
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I'll tell you when I get there.

  16. DGW Sane TC Fail....
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Klopp 6-8 weeks out for Jota

  17. StevenW
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    24 points with Salah (C) & Lamptey to play. Think I’m going to see a big fat red arrow unless Salah Hauls - even then I imagine it’s quite likely I drop.

    Any way of seeing live averages / updated league tables without waiting for the FPL app to update?

        5 years, 3 months ago

        Thank you!

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Wow what's your team? I've had the worst possible week with no goals and I'm still on 30 points

      1. StevenW
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Team is:

        Mendy
        Chilly Lamptey Regul Coufal
        Salah (C) Bruno KDB Grealish
        DCL Watkins

        Steele Mitchell Jota Brewster.

        Got 1 FT remaining having done Jota -> Mahrez already

    3. Flair
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      If Salah hauls with a G+A you should see a grey arrow

      1. StevenW
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        At the moment it’s the best I can hope for!

  18. Sz21
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Which looks best?
    1. Lamptey + Jota -> TAA/ Robbo -> Soucek/ Lookman (Exact cash).
    2. Just Jota-> Soucek/ Lookman. 2.4m ITB for Mahrez-> Son in a few weeks.
    Anything else I should consider?
    Also deciding who is better between Soucek/ Lookman.

    McCarthy.
    Lamptey, James, Chilwell, Dallas.
    KDB, Salah, Mahrez, Fernandes.
    Bamford, DCL.
    Forster, Jota, Brewster, Ferguson.
    0.6m ITB, 2 ft's.

  19. Miniboss
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    My last players to play next, high hopes for Robbo & Salah(c) to deliver big.

  20. potatoace
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Up the Saffrons!!

  21. hueycho
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Need a hattie from (S)alah!!

    1. Vazza
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      This!

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

    49 points so far.. bricked on C with KDB. Don't own Salah. As long as Salah doesn't get more than 10 points I guess I'll consider this week a success.

    1. DAZZ
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Lol good luck. I would hate to watch this without Salah. Worse than Spuds without Son/Kane

  23. DAZZ
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Pointless game because every serious player has Salah (c)

    1. Defcons are for Kinnear
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I know but it's nice when we all celebrate together on here

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      There’s about 3 people in my mini league who did Mane>Salah cap. The fear lmao

    3. AzzaroMax99
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      No, it isn't, for me at least. My rivals in ML had KDB & Kane as C, so everything is open.

    4. Cruyff Turn
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I've gone Mane (c), also own Salah... this could propel me to the top of my ML.

  24. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    I'm reading this as Klopp out for 2 months

  25. SHOOTER MCGINN
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Pretty much no move in rank after that Spurs game. Robbo, Salah (c) and Vardy to go. Gonna be disappointing not to get a green from now.

  26. Vazza
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    This game reminds me of when Salah bagged four goals against Watford a couple of years ago..

    1. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Yes please

  27. corderz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Time to hide behind the sofa with no Salah :/

    1. hueycho
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Yeap

  28. vincentwsho
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Dias or Cancelo? Worth getting Robbo out to save 1.5 or 1.6 value?

    1. Vazza
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      NO way!!

    2. Cruyff Turn
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I've gone with both – Cancelo for high-risk, high-reward. Dias for consistency.

  29. bigdip
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Got 2FT with 0.0itb

    Mccarthy (Forster)
    Cancelo Justin James Taylor Lewis
    Bruno Son Sterling (c) JOTA Gordon
    Vardy Dcl Wilson

    Jota to Soucek and save other FT. Then next week Sterling to Salah and Vardy to Kane?

  30. Bury94
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Fellow Mane captainers let's pray together
