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!

    I think Maddison wasn't a good fpl option after his injury.

    He isn't 100% yet, not on set pieces, doesn't shot, doesn't touch the box.

    Disappointed so far from an fpl perspective

      Not passing the eye test either - he looks rusty

    2. Bushwhacker

      He did finally take a free kick that came straight back to him and he ran out of play.

      i mean if Castagne wasnt there, that ball from Nacho was going straight to Maddison in the box

    The guy with the highest score this week also played his WC. It looks like an anti-FPL team that went the complete opposite for him ๐Ÿ˜†

            He's so bad at fpl, he can't even fail properly

          I wonder if someone got into his team and tried to screw him over

          Ultimate backfire

          1. @persecuted_by_mods
              5 years, 27 days ago

              If someone's doing that to him with his OR..

            Timing. Hope you're not homeless.

          Non FPL related, but, The United States Supreme Court is taking up a case that will lead to the elimination of all laws preventing the carrying of a firearm in public.

          Because the only thing that stops an idiot with a gun is another idiot with a gun.

          Are England’s immigration laws friendly for Americans? Asking for a friend.

            Handguns and concealed carry should both be illegal. As well as AR-15s. Citizenry is not militia and the 2nd Amendment is being misconstrued by the court. One day, we will get it right.

              The laws are going the other way unfortunately. I can’t even talk about it anymore after Sandy Hook, just shame on them.

          Handball

          1. Bushwhacker
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 27 days ago

            Not a chance. That would be beyond ludicrous.

            • 13 Years
            5 years, 27 days ago

            Wow, but Wilson was disallowed?

            VAR VAR VAR...

            1. Bushwhacker
              • 6 Years
              5 years, 27 days ago

              Wilson was handball.

                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                5 years, 27 days ago

                Watch the replay; he touched it with his right hand. I don’t like disallowing those goals mind you, but it was the exact same situation

        15. Botman and Robben
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 27 days ago

          Nice. I have Castagne & Nacho.

          5 years, 27 days ago

          Anyone but Castagne damn it ๐Ÿ™

          It's so difficult when you make the bad call between 2 options

          Cancelo to Castagne or Kane to Party ๐Ÿ™

          1. FPL Daniel
            • 16 Years

          • 16 Years

          Wow. VAR did NOT (I repeat, DID NOT) disallow the goal for possible handball!

        18. Drogo
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 27 days ago

          took in Castagne and nacho in WC!

              • 13 Years
              5 years, 27 days ago

              Well, I also took in TAA, Jota, Siggy, Maddison, Sanchez and those didn't work out so well. Hopefully in the long-run they will though.

        19. Weasel Boy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

          • 7 Years

          VAR is too funny... what a crazy time to be a football fan. checks everything it should not check and omits everything that should be checked

          1. Bushwhacker
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 27 days ago

            Checked. Cleared.

        21. TomSaints
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 27 days ago

          Well that’s a few points to justify the hit

          • 13 Years

          Getting Castagne and Iheanacho for a 4 point hit was well worth it now!

          That assist doesn’t stop me considering as a total failure my Wood to Iheanacho move!

          Not getting Castagne in to have slot for Maddison... Well, I can only smile the way this season is going... Top 100k is only target left and shouldn't be too difficult.

          1. Bushwhacker
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 27 days ago

            Castagne is just way too expensive.
