FPL’s most-owned player in action as leaders Spurs take on unchanged Palace

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.

      McCarthy
      Chilwell, Mendy, Lewis, Targett
      Salah KDB (C), Bruno, Grealish
      Adams, Bamford

      Forster, Coufal, Brewster, ziyech

      2ft 0itb

      Really tempted to do ziyech > Greenwood as a one week punt then re assess after with another 2ft for the weekend.

      Thoughts?

          Yeah. This is just my initial thoughts. I only have Salah left to play today.

        The points difference is because K has scored two goals. Make of that what you will.

      I’m pretty sure on watching replay that’s a second yellow fire sissoko (though zaha was looking for it).

      Big moment

            Liverpool are paying for that luck last season.

      Even though I'm a Salah owner, I'd be happy if he is restricted to just a 30-minute cameo and then rested, for whatever reason. Spurs game, do some shopping, look through his brother's wedding photos etc.

      Sissoko needs subbing. Not going to make 90 mins at this rate.

      Solskjaer would be crucified for this.
