A quieter-than-usual Saturday features only four Premier League matches, the first of which is Leicester City v Crystal Palace.

Kick-off at the King Power Stadium is at 12:30 BST.

There’s one change apiece for the two sides involved, with injury forcing Brendan Rodgers’ hand.

Daniel Amartey comes in at centre-half to replace Jonny Evans, who misses out with a calf strain.

Patson Daka leads the line again, with Jamie Vardy only among the substitutes.

Patrick Vieira’s only change from the victory over Leeds United sees Tyrick Mitchell come in at left-back, Jeffrey Schlupp move to midfield and Michael Olise drop to the bench.

James Maddison and Wilfried Zaha were both among the 10 most-bought midfielders of Gameweek 11, attracting over 530,000 transfers in between them.

Their Fantasy Premier League (FPL) ownerships are both now around the 20% mark as a result.

The pair have contrasting records against today’s opponents: Maddison has never scored against Palace, while Zaha has seven goals in his last nine appearances against the Foxes.

A reminder that a booking for Maddison today would see him miss Gameweek 12 through suspension, as it would be his fifth caution of the season.


GAMEWEEK 11 LINE-UPS

Leicester City XI: Ward, Justin, Faes, Amartey, Castagne, Dewsbury-Hall, Tielemans, Soumare, Barnes, Maddison, Daka.

Subs: Iversen, Soyuncu, Thomas, Mendy, Albrighton, Praet, Perez, Iheanacho, Vardy.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Ward, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell, Doucoure, Eze, Schlupp, Zaha, Edouard, Ayew.

Subs: Johnstone, Balmer, Tomkins, Milivojevic, Riedewald, Ebiowei, Olise, Gordon, Mateta.

    Who scores more GW12?

    A) Guehi + Salah
    B) Edouard + Salah
    C) Trossard + Aubameyang

    1. JJO
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Who knows

      1. agueroooooney
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Great input

        1. Bennerman
          4 years, 12 days ago

          It's true, though, it's a futile exercise whereby a load of randoms have a guess

          1. agueroooooney
            4 years, 12 days ago

            They're not random guesses though, they are predictions from people who follow Premier league football, which is why most people post on here

      2. Amsterhammer
        4 years, 12 days ago

        This

    2. Gooner Kebab
      4 years, 12 days ago

      A

    3. mrelpea
      4 years, 12 days ago

      A

  2. Botman and Robben
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Zaha and Maddy braces each please.

    1. SHOOTER MCGINN
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Hoping for the same. Which probably means this will be 0-0 and clean sheets for everyone else.

  3. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Hoping for players to get injuries is very mean-spirited I feel

  4. Geriatric Unathletic

    Thinking I may just go with 10 in GW 12. Means I can keep Saliba (who I would want back) along with the trinity of Cancello, Haaland and Martinelli. Use my free transfer on moving Williams to a playing defender and as have 1.5 in the bank, can be reasonably choosey to a point

    1. JJO
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Me too
      Dont want to lose money or 2 transfers on anyone from Martinelli, Cancelo, Foden or Halland

  5. Geriatric Unathletic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 12 days ago

    This will be a disappointing 00 draw. Too many hopes pinned on returns for both defence and attack, lol.

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      4 years, 12 days ago

      I'd be very surprised to see Leicester play out a 0-0, they've had only one of those since February last year

    2. Gooner Kebab
      4 years, 12 days ago

      More like a 1-1

    3. BeaversWithAttitude
      4 years, 12 days ago

      I'd take the Ward clean sheet since it is rare as Halley's Comet.

  6. JRD
    4 years, 12 days ago

    zaha walking on the pitch with a red bull 2 mins before the game.
    hes gonna fly

  7. Geriatric Unathletic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 12 days ago

    1 -1 draw

  8. Old Wulfrunian
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Bench one please.
    a)Williams
    b)Bowen
    c)Toney

    1. JJO
      4 years, 12 days ago

      A of course

    2. Old Wulfrunian
      4 years, 12 days ago

      cheers both.

  9. Geriatric Unathletic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Zaha and Maddison zilch ;).

  12. Geriatric Unathletic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Zaha and Maddison zilch ;).= comment on this game

  13. The Senate
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Pls Guehi Zaha Madders can you get me some points

  14. Geriatric Unathletic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 12 days ago

    This is the conundrum - Too many wanting points from both thier attack and defence/G.K.

    1. The Senate
      4 years, 12 days ago

      1-1 with OGs from Castagne and Andersen inbound

  15. JJO
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Is this a new post or Geriatrics ward?

  16. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    4 years, 12 days ago

    That was horrendous from Edouard

  17. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 12 days ago

    This game has goals surely

  18. Geriatric Unathletic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Having Ward and Maddison a Leicester cleanie and win would suit me just fine. Not gunna happen though is it :(.

  19. Ha.
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Have Zaha and Maddy scored 10 each yet?

    1. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      No, only 6 each

      1. Ha.
        4 years, 12 days ago

        It’ll do I guess

  20. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Maddison time 😎

    1. Geriatric Unathletic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Pretty please with whipped cream on!

  21. Jafooli
    4 years, 12 days ago

    11'
    Joachim Andersen (Crystal Palace) receives a yellow card for a nasty tackle.
    10'
    Timothy Castagne (Leicester) commits a rough foul. Andy Madley stops the game and makes a call.
    9'
    Timothy Castagne (Leicester) commits a foul after unfairly battling his opponent for the ball.

    Andersen mistaken for Castagne? 😛

  22. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Andersen yc

  23. Bobby Digital
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Remember two seasons ago when Iheanacho was banging them in and when the next season started he was on the bench again?

    1. Ha.
      4 years, 12 days ago

      No. You?

    2. Bobby Digital
      4 years, 12 days ago

      He scored 12 goals that season, while playing only 1400 mins.

    3. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      I member.

      Rodgers is weird. This squad is severely underperforming.

    4. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      4 years, 12 days ago

      I was just bemoaning Rodgers' treatment of him earlier. Hope he gets to leave soon, deserves an honest chance elsewhere and Rodgers doesn't deserve him, even when he's had nobody else available he's often tried to avoid playing him despite how well he tends to do when he gets a good run

      1. Mambino
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Rogers might be gone first

    5. Ser Davos
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Was pick of the 7.5 forwards summer of 2021

  24. meenabakery
    4 years, 12 days ago

    15 minutes in and Ward is still on a clean sheet.

    1. Bobby Digital
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Remarkable

  25. meenabakery
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Poor choice of cardigan from Patrick.

  26. DycheDycheBaby
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Thanks Andersen for rewarding your new owner with a yellow card!!

    1. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Bet he did it just to spite you as well

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      First def on my bench and coming in for Coufal. As long as he doesn't get another and 1 week suspension when I really need him, I can live with this. But now I need to check odds for him being sent out. Just to get some consolation money.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Looks like I actually can't 🙁

  27. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    4 years, 12 days ago

    This has certainly been a game low on quality so far

    1. Bobby Digital
      4 years, 12 days ago

      I've seen worse.

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Villa on Monday?

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Barnes and Daka doing well

  28. Hawk Eye
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Looking for a one game punt on Jesus for GW 12, WCing in 13
    A. Daka
    B. Ouba
    C. LIV (which one?)
    D. Mitro
    (Got Haland &Kane)

  29. lilmessipran
    4 years, 12 days ago

    This is gonna be a 0-0 right?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      When they get tired 2nd half some sloppy passes at the back could nullify the CS ...

      1. lilmessipran
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Ya, with Ward in goal cleanie is never certain

    2. Hawk Eye
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Maddison yellow card please

  30. Ser Davos
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Bench of Haaland, Foden, Cancelo, Martinelli

    Decent FPL assets are like hen's teeth this season

    Any objections?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Wow BB chip that!

    2. Big Ronnie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Think I might do the same. Don't know if 2 transfers on the Foden Trossard hokey cokey is worth it.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Expected points for Trossard must be below 8. I wouldn't.

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 12 days ago

      I think I would. As KdB owner I will sell him to get Foden.

      1. Ser Davos
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Sell KDB for the blank then bring Foden in post blank could be a decent ploy. That was my original plan till I needed Gordon to Maddison funds

        Cheers all
