Bissouma absent as Edouard makes first start for Palace

In the final match of Gameweek 6, Crystal Palace host Brighton and Hove Albion at Selhurst Park in the M23 derby.

Kick-off is at 20:00 BST.

Odsonne Edouard (£6.5m) makes his first start for Palace, having scored twice as a substitute against Tottenham Hotspur in Gameweek 4.

Luka Milivojevic (£5.4m) also features in the starting XI, with Cheikhou Kouyate (£4.5m) and Christian Benteke (£6.3m) dropping to the bench alongside Jeremy Schlupp (£5.4m), who has recovered from a thigh problem.

Eberechi Eze (£5.9m) and Nathan Ferguson (£4.5m) remain sidelined.

As for Brighton, a win at Selhurst Park tonight would see them go top of the Premier League.

Robert Sanchez (£4.6m) and Shane Duffy (£4.3m) – who are currently owned by 25.4% and 22.5% of FPL managers respectively – both start, but Yves Bissouma (£4.6m) misses out with a knee injury and is replaced by Pascal Gross (£6.0m).

Dan Burn (£4.4m) is also in for Solly March (£5.4m).

Tariq Lamptey (£4.4m) again makes the bench, with Graham Potter stating last week that they will carefully manage his return to fitness.

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Fair that he gets an assist as Sa owners did

    *receive ball*
    *fake forward motion*
    *step over*
    *pass back*

    That’s all I’ve seen Veltman do.

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      That'll do Velt, that'll do.

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Oh, but there was THAT cross

      The one that went all the way out for a throw-in, close to the halfway line

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I mistook that for a clearance in the final third. Just to be certain Palace didn’t counter attack.

    3. @persecuted_by_mods
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Could easily be subbed for Lamptey

    4. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I only need a brace from Gallagher and a CS from Sanchez for a bad GW

        You asked for 🙂

    10. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Milivojevic again, try his best to avoid passing to gallagher

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        The world will avoid Gallagher getting anything now I have him

    11. Digital-Real
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Can't see any Gallagher points in this game unless they switch formation second half

      1. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Can you see them now? 😛

      It is rather strange to see Crystal Palace dominate possession and play fluid football. Quite refreshing.

      1. Gunneryank
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I don't begrudge Palace their flowing football. Just not this game dammit!

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I really need a Palace goal so come on!

          1. Gunneryank
            • 2 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            (Obi Wan force jazz hands):

            You don't need a Palace goal.

      2. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Hughton to Potter, Hodgson to Viera

        ...

        Jose to Nuno

    13. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      That Gallagher slide. My goodness

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        If he doesn't get booked I'll eat my hat

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          If it’s a straw hat, that’s cheating.

          1. WVA
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Honestly this is just getting ridiculous now

    14. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      What will Gallagher and Sanchez end up with? I predict 1-0 to Palace with no Gallagher involvement to leave me with the below scores this week. Horrific!

      Shaw 0
      Sanchez 1
      Gallagher 1
      Rudiger 1
      TAA 1
      Livramento 2
      Lukaku 2
      Ronaldo 2 (C)
      Benrahma 3
      Salah 7
      Jota 7

      Steele 0
      Sissoko 2
      White 2
      Scarlett 0

        Dude. We know. A lot of us had shite weeks. That's the game.

        Get a grip.

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Relax, not seen anyone come close to that!

      4. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        That's a haul this GW!

      5. I Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        A good example of why three premiums is not the way.

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I get that it hasn't worked the last two weeks (since I went for it) but I don't see how going three premiums suddenly means all your players fail to return + one of the premiums did.

      6. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Just out of interest, if I try to get that team now I'm £1.5m over budget.

        How did you manage it?

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          TV only 101.8? Trust me you don't want it!

      Milivojevic makes a negtive impact on gallagher already, steal set pieces, want to be the main man, keep making the last passes instead of passing to gallagher in a good position

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Like I said as soon as I bring him in the universe will conspire against him

      Final touches from Palace are terrible

    18. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years

      Sanchez is so incredibly sure footed and assured, that I almost find it attractive.
