Crystal Palace take on Everton in the final Premier League match of Gameweek 16, with kick-off at Selhurst Park at 16:30 GMT.

Patrick Vieira makes three changes from the Gameweek 15 defeat at Manchester United, with Joel Ward, Will Hughes and Odsonne Edouard coming in for Nathaniel Clyne, Jeffrey Schlupp and Christian Benteke, all of whom drop to the bench.

That means influential defender Joachim Andersen remains out, despite returning to training last week.

As for Everton, Rafa Benitez also shuffles his pack. In come Mason Holgate, Fabian Delph and Andre Gomes, with Yerry Mina and Allan missing out completely, while Anthony Gordon is a substitute.

Lucas Digne, meanwhile, is once again absent from the matchday squad.

GAMEWEEK 16 LINE-UPS

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Ward, Tomkins, Guehi, Mitchell, Kouyate, Hughes, Gallagher, Ayew, Zaha, Edouard

Subs: Butland, Olise, Eze, Mateta, Schlupp, Clyne, Benteke, Kelly, Riedewald

Everton XI: Pickford, Coleman, Holgate, Keane, Godfrey, Doucoure, Delph, Gomes, Townsend, Gray, Richarlison

Subs: Begovic, Kenny, Iwobi, Gordon, Gbamin, Branthwaite, Rondon, Simms, Onyango

        EXC: Tottenham returned to training today and Antonio Conte wasted no time - putting his players through a double session. Looking increasingly likely Leicester game should be okay. https://t.co/ZgU58GVZJX

        #thfc returned to training today. Antonio Conte made his players complete a double session

        1. Stranger Mings
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Should we be jumping on spurs if had rest ?

          1. Ask Yourself
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            Having COVID and no training isn’t exactly much of a rest. Might jump on maddison

            1. Stranger Mings
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 4 months ago

              You wouldn’t play reguilion then?

      3. MikeS
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Interesting, might keep reg now

        1. Stranger Mings
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

      4. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        What does this mean for Son

        1. MikeS
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Probably still has to isolate

    8. Gazwaz80
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Had Guita for many weeks, this week was his last chance so I think it’s time to go our separate ways, I sorry to say, he won’t be sadly missed 🙂

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        He's absolute piss

      2. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Never usually use a goalie transfer outwith wildcard but thinking I’ll make an exception for Guaita

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          I think it's goung to be worth it.

        2. MikeS
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          That's bs, I took a -4 for ddg that paid off a treat with Sanchez out

        3. Botman and Robben
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Ramsdale or DDG?

          1. Gazwaz80
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            DDG for me…

    9. Sergeant Slaughter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Who’s at greatest risk of rest/injury next GW?
      Alonso
      Broja (news soon)
      Mount
      Bilva
      James

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        James?

        1. Sergeant Slaughter
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Longshot, yes

      2. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Guaita

      3. _Gunner
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        James I think

      4. RogDog_jimmy
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Given Broja went off injured it’s him obviously.
        James for rest I imagine.

    10. Lord of Ings
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      It’s almost as if palace forget how to play in the last 20-25 minutes of matches

    11. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Gray YC

    12. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Gray YC, red check...

    13. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Turned into a fun game for a neutral.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Yes, YC for Gallagher is what we need now.

    14. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Would have been better off keeping Foster-Bachmann combo instead of wasting a transfer on Guaita

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        And buying Salah 😀

        1. Deulofail
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          That's not what's holding me back, it's all Guaita!

    15. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Guaita is last season's Ramsdale

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Guaita is last season's Guaita.

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Last season he tended to pop up with a random 10 pointer. Can't see they ever happening again.

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

            Because Woy’s tactics were different to Vieira’s

    16. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Sold Reguillon for Dalot this week -4 because I had so many flags and no bench. Regret it

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Looks like spurs could play and United might be off now 😆 ouch

        1. MikeS
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Moral of the story, especially with this new variant, wait to do transfers now till last minute

          1. Paqueta Rice
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            I did make the transfer last minute. This news only broke today

        2. RogDog_jimmy
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Ouch!

      2. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I don't, yet. At least I can now afford to sell Gundo for Son.

    17. Tabasco
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Need a Gallagher YC to wipe away those BPs/tears

    18. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Pickford is such a show pony 😆

    19. MikeS
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Everton lucky to have 11 men in field, doucore should be sent off

    20. Old Gregg
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Ramsdale
      Taa-Livra-James-Alonso
      Salah-Jota-Gundo*
      King-CR7-Broja*

      Mbuemo-Normann*-Cancelo*

      1FT 2.3 ITB

      a) Gundo + Mubemo > Foden +’Bowen (-4)
      B) gundo > Foden and Play mbuemo v Utd
      C) any recommendations?

    21. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

    22. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Who to replace Guaita with?

      A. Ramsdale
      B. DDG
      C. Lloris (if game goes ahead also there will be future dgw's)

      1. jdp219
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Seconded. Commenting so I can come back to this. 😉

      2. Seano
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

      3. Pep bites Kun
        • 9 Years

    23. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years

      Coleman playing rugby out there

    24. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Is Guiata even a keeper or just an outfield player they put into goals. He is useless.

    25. sirmorbach
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Any early thoughts for my 2 free transfers, lads? I'd greatly appreciate it, as I'll have limited time tomorrow.

      Ramsdale
      TAA, Cancelo*, Dias, James, Livra
      Salah, Foden, Jota, Bowen, Luiz
      Antonio, Wilson, King

      A. Wilson to Watkins, hold other ft
      B. Luiz to Gallagher/Odegaard, hold other ft
      C. Both A and B
      D. Wilson to Dennis, Luiz to Mount
      E. Something else?

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Yes. My early thoughts are don't do any transfers until we know about the covid situation.

    26. Kannbury
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Good save Guaita!

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        How many saves is he on?

        1. Kannbury
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Only 4

    27. Ray85
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Livra for Dalot, Targett or Tierney? Or stick and play against Palace?

      Also are people sticking with Antonio for the next few games (bar ARS that look easier) or is he long gone?!

    28. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      If I don’t transfer maddison in tonight I’m priced out, worth the risk in the light of Spurs training news?

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        No

      2. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Not worth the risk

      3. Duke Silver ☑
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Who are you getting rid of? Could be other covid fires to be put out over the next couple of days.

    29. RogDog_jimmy
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      What a fun game this has turned out to be.

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Someone doesn't own Guaita

        1. RogDog_jimmy
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Haha. Just Gallagher. So I’ve been relaxed with points for the second half.

          1. Botman and Robben
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            He is 1st on my bench. Having a very bad time.

            1. TKC07
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 4 months ago

              Same here.. Always benched him for double digit hauls and never missed any blank yet.. lol
