Gameweek 29 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues at Selhurst Park this evening, with Crystal Palace hosting table toppers Manchester City at 20:00 GMT.

Pep Guardiola sticks with the same XI that beat Manchester United so convincingly in Gameweek 28.

That means Joao Cancelo recovers from illness to feature at left-back, while Nathan Ake also returns to the matchday squad as a substitute.

Further forward, attacking trio Riyad Mahrez, Jack Grealish and Phil Foden all start in Pep’s usual 4-3-3 formation.

Ruben Dias, meanwhile, misses the trip through injury as expected.

As for Palace, they are unchanged from the side that beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-0 last time out.

Nathaniel Clyne retains his place at right-back, while the returning Joel Ward is named as a substitute.


GAMEWEEK 29 LINE-UPS

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Clyne, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell, Kouyate, Schlupp, Gallagher, Olise, Zaha, Mateta

Subs: Butland, Matthews, Ward, Tomkins, Ayew, Eze, Benteke, Edouard, Riedewald

Manchester City XI: Ederson, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Cancelo, Rodri, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Mahrez, Grealish, Foden

Subs: Steffen, Carson, Ake, Sterling, Gundogan, Jesus, Zinchenko, Fernandinho, Mbete

    How does Grealish get booked for that yet Rodri doesn't get a booking for 2 cynical fouls

    Mitchell yet again, if we got £55m for AWB, bids got to be silly to prize him away from us.

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)

    Own up, who else sold Cancelo this week to “take advantage” of fixtures

    1. It's Fergie Time
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I was going to sell him in GW 32, not so sure now

    2. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I sold Kilman so pretty much the same 😛

    3. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I sold Cancelo on wildcard for Silva and upgraded him to Robertson this gameweek. No regrets so far.

  11. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    4 years, 1 month ago

    Eduard probably busts the CS after being a stinking asset

    Liverpool fans praying Manchester City drop points in 2 or 3 games.

    But they could well drop points themselves at Arsenal on Wednesday.

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Arsenal starts looking good

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        A days less rest but have matched both Manchester City and Liverpool over the last 10 league games.

  13. COLLIN QUANER

    Cancelo 9 pointer. Grab and assist/goal and we feast!!!!

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

      Locked-in. Confirmed. Good to see.

    2. Sun God Nika
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Would be a frenzy

  14. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Rodrigo - he who can never get a card it seems. Ref must have him.

    1. FPL Emu
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Martin Atkinson shows his hate for United whenever he refs a Utd match, but clearly it extends to offering some help here

  15. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    In desperate need of Foden scoring a winner

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Imagine he'll be subbed sometime soon.

      1. MIGHTY JOE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Thats 100%

  16. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    If there ever was a time for Clyne to score and reveal Liverpool shirt underneath, it's probably now.

  17. TopBinFC
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Time to sell Foden, not a good fpl asset

  18. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Who's going to get the winner here? So intense? 😛

    1. TopBinFC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No one. 0.0

  19. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Rodrigo again, lol - can just do what he wants 🙂

    1. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      It's annoying as hell when Rodri plays against your team and he gets away with literally everything. If he scores the winner, it's just extra irritating.

  20. It's Fergie Time
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Pep no subs?

    1. TopBinFC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Very strange, thought sterling or jesus be on by now

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Need Yaya Toure

      1. Hughes Your Daddy
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        haha yeah - remember twice Yaya Toure won games at ours. What a player he was.

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          And you need Townsend ...

    3. schlupptheweek
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Apparently he doesn't use subs much due to saving money on appearance fees haha

  21. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Gallagher customary yellow

  22. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Sold Cancelo and have a bet on KDB to score.

  23. Threat Level Midnight
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Truly confused as to how Pep has made no subs?

    1. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No bench

      1. Threat Level Midnight
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Huh? Raheem has been in fine form and they definitely have options.

    2. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Really odd. Too one dimensional.
      Dont understand the grealish and foden obsession he has. Sterling and gundogan much better players if given chance

  24. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bad feeling its going to be a repeat of Chelsea at home, we look knackered. Late 0-1 :/

  25. COLLIN QUANER
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Edouard owners fuming with the 0 pointer

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      They are used to it by now believe me

  26. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    No striker costing City

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Aguerrooo

  27. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Did cancelo to Doherty for a - 8 minutes before deadline. Knew straightaway cancelo will get his typical 9 pointer. And Doherty will blank.
    One of those transfers u know its wrong but unnecessary logic like doherty has 3 games compared to cancelo 1 game..

    1. Threat Level Midnight
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Was never a good decision when Doherty is just plain awful

  28. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Kouyate and Mitchell warriors tonight, what a performance.

  29. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Vieira > Guardiola

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      4 points off City this season - not bad.

      Phil Frauden ghosting yet again
