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.

  2. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years

    At least a Kane (C) Son owner to soften the blow. Was not expecting anything from this game our side.

  3. Revival

  7. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Going to be a painful afternoon this.

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

      Nah, Palace playing decent

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

    This Son/kane thing is bordering on ludicrous now.

  9. GOTHAM City F.C.
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Guita was so good before that

  10. S.Kuqi

      You must dislike points?

  11. JONALDINHO

    Game now destined to end 0-1 with Spurs sitting back

    1. Groot the Leveller
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      they will push on i recon - 3-0

  12. The Chosen One...
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Remember people getting rid of Son and Kane just because of fixtures

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Depending on who they got instead it may well have worked out for them.

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

    I surrender, Bissouma/Vardy to Son/Fodder for -4

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

    KDB over Kane was a dreadful shout

  15. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Spurs so lucky. Looks like it is their lucky season this time. If Liverpool, Chelsea, Man Utd, or Man City were playing Palace today and one of their players had that Kane shot, Guaita would have saved it.

    Better to be lucky than good.

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

      Not sure if I mentioned that I believe this game to be all luck!?

      1. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Not all luck. But there is a fair amount of luck.

        Tbf, Spurs have been unlucky in the past, so their luck was going to change at some point. Looks like it is this season.

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

      Lucky mentioned THREE times there

    3. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Any other day, that shot is 100% comfortably saved

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

    Had enough of these Kane G Son A and vice versa. It’s bloody torture to see

  17. Stupendous
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Matip and Fabinho up next!!!

  18. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Deciding between Kane or Fernandes is tough

  19. JJO
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    How lucky are Son and Kane this season?

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

      You can say that about Bruno and Salah who have had about a million penalties

      1. JJO
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Dont get me wrong
        I had both,now only Son...but those 2 are getting goals and especially assist un such a lucky way

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

    Here’s a question. Who scores more by end of season?

    Son and Kane

    or

    Salah and De Brunye

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

      Son and Kane
      KDB looks cack this season

    2. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Son and Kane easy

  21. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Mahrez & Vardy âž¡ Bruno & Ings (-4)

    Yay or Nay?

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

    may go back to Kane instead of KDB in my formation

    1. TRIPOS TOPPER
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I'm thinking same

      KdB not justifying his price at all

  23. Bury94
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    150,000 rank drop from that even though I own Son, brutal

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

      HOW?!

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

        What is the point in playing the game if a player we own actually makes us drop rank

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

          Are you serious?

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

      captained Son, not own Kane and I didn’t move rank

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

        Absolute joke ain’t it

    3. Bram
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Rank drop from only owning Kane too!

  24. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Any number crusher here?
    Having Son, not as captain and no Kane - Do I want Son to deliver??

    1. Bram
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yes assuming no Kane involvement.

  25. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    No chance I’m selling Kane for KDB

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

      I was deciding who to bring in for Vardy, Kane or KdB in a 452.
      Think Kane >Kev

  26. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Lol Guaita. Now just get a pen as well.

  27. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Casuals like me sold Kane and Son because of fixtures.

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      LOL

    2. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Their performances have definately supported the form over fixtures argument.

  28. Baines on Toast...
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    The thing with all of these assists is that so many of them are extremely lucky, they aren’t creating chances so much as unlikely opportunities. Like Bruno’s assists at the end of last season

  29. Garlana
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Took Kane out for a hit to get Salah, prayers needed ..

  30. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Own Son but my rank drops by 30% after that goal

    1. Custard Gannet
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Own Kane and I've drop around 30K

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

      Don’t get how this happens

      1. CaptMidnight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        It's because lots of people captained him. Relax. Salah to play later. You're not going to get constant rank rises.

      2. Bram
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Kane has an effective ownership of 98% so uncapped what he does is irrelevant. Son assist is thus unmitigated damage.
