Zaha absent for Crystal Palace as Alli returns for Spurs

1,126 Comments

Wilfried Zaha (£6.8m) will take no part in Crystal Palace’s meeting with Tottenham Hotspur this evening after being absent from the matchday squad.

That news comes after Roy Hodgson revealed in his press conference earlier in the week that he had no fresh injury concerns ahead of Gameweek 12.

The Eagles’ back-four remains unchanged but it looks as if they are lining up with a 4-2-3-1 in Zaha’s absence. Jordan Ayew (£5.8m) looks set to lead the line.

Meanwhile, Dele Alli (£8.9m) returns to the Tottenham starting line-up for Spurs the first time since Gameweek 4. Fantasy managers hoping to invest in Spurs’ appealing schedule around Gameweek 15 or 16 will be looking for a strong performance from the England international.

Erik Lamela (£6.4m) starts a third match in a row with Christian Eriksen (£9.2m) named on the bench.

Crystal Palace XI (4-2-3-1): Hennessey; Van Aanholt, Sakho, Tomkins, Wan-Bissaka; Kouyaté, McArthur; Townsend, Milivojevic, Meyer; Ayew.

Tottenham Hotspur XI (4-2-3-1): Lloris, Davies, Foyth, Alderweireld, Trippier, Wanyama, Sissoko, Alli, Moura, Lamela, Kane.

    What are people thinking 're kane on a gw15 or 16 wildcard??

    Looks a top captaincy option throughout December due to his lack of rotation.

    But he's still not looking as explosive as old
