Leicester’s attack looks set to have the defining say on Blank Gameweek 33 as Crystal Palace come to the King Power Stadium.

It has been a low-scoring round thus far but Jamie Vardy (ยฃ10.3m) and Kelechi Iheanacho (ยฃ6.2m) could make all the difference.

24.1% of Fantasy Premier League managers own the Foxes’ talismanic forward for Blank Gameweek 33, who is fresh from two double-digit hauls across his last four matches.

Meanwhile, 21.5% of teams worldwide come into the latest round with Iheanacho in their team, while just over 10% of the top 10,000 managers captained him.

However, the real difference makers are those who own both, just 4.8% of managers overall in possession of the two Leicester strikers.

The pair are less differential in the top 10k, 23.7% of them owning Vardy and Iheanacho for Blank Gameweek 33.

For the second match in a row James Maddison (ยฃ7.3m) is at number 10 while Timothy Castagne (ยฃ5.8m) and Luke Thomas (ยฃ4.1m) provide width as wing-backs with Ricardo Pereira (ยฃ5.9m) on the bench.

Crystal Palace face Leicester’s 3-4-1-2 system with their usual 4-4-2 formation, with Wilfried Zaha (ยฃ7.1m) and Christian Benteke (ยฃ5.5m) up-front and Jordan Ayew (ยฃ5.6m) on the right-hand flank of midfield.

Meanwhile, for the first time, we are trialling a new matchday service, providing you with live updates in the form of a live blog discussing key Fantasy talking points. Let us know what you think!

Blank Gameweek 33 Line-ups

Leicester City XI (3-4-1-2): Schmeichel; Fofana, Evans, Sรถyรผncรผ; L Thomas, Ndidi, Tielemans, Castagne; Maddison; Iheanacho, Vardy.

Crystal Palace XI (4-4-2): Guaita; van Aanholt, Dann, Kouyatรฉ, J Ward; Eze, Riedewald, Milivojevic, Ayew; Zaha, Benteke.

    A) Gundo(cry) to Son(SHU)
    B) Jota (mun) to Son
    C) Bruno (LIV) to Son

    Depending on how rapidly prices change in the A group I could be priced out - 0.3 safe just now

            On the same page, it has to be Bruno surely? Liverpool between two semi final legs, and the rest of the fixtures are not exactly great. Not sure whether Fulham and Wolves games will have any meaning and will it be free scoring or just boring.

      It's incredibley frustrating at those lofty heights. The tiniest mistake means you double your rank in a heartbeat.

      I went into the final game week of last season at 1,500. I'd been 640 on 2 separate occasions that year so I wanted to push for top 1000 rather than settle, because I might not ever be in that position again. Went for 2 differentials and ended up 5,600. Would have bitten your hand off for top 10k at the start of the season but it's so frustrating when you've gotten close to the summit and not managed to cling on. You're in a great position, 5 weeks to go. Keep going!

          Not sure about it with Southampton and Newcastle next, and Bruno getting off the boil. I could swap Bruno and Kane on two free transfers.

            Me two as have 2FTs so Bruno & vydra to Kane & raphinha or pereira. Maybe too rash then to dump Vardy straightaway but handy to carry over a transfer for DGW35

    I was thinking of BB this coming GW, but would need to move out Cresswell who is currently flagged at 50%, but has such a nice run coming up that losing .3 of value on him would mean I wouldn't be able to directly swap him back in if fit.

    a) Cresswell to Shaw
    b) Cresswell to Shaw and BB
    c) Hold 1FT and Cresswell for now

    Martinez - (Johnstone)
    TAA - Dallas - Holding - (Konsa - Cresswell)
    Salah - Lingard - Bruno - Son (Soucek)
    Kane - Iheanacho - Bamford

    Thanks!
