Maddison overcomes injury doubt as Pereira starts in defence for Leicester

James Maddison (£6.6m) has come through his injury doubts to start for Leicester against Crystal Palace this afternoon.

The central midfielder was yellow-flagged before the game following comments from Claude Puel in his Thursday press conference.

Maddison starts in the number 10 role for the Foxes as their run of appealing fixtures gets underway this weekend.

Ben Chilwell (£5.0m) was not as fortunate as he missed out on a place in the matchday squad through his knock.

Christian Fuchs (£4.1m) makes just his second start of the season at left-back.

The wide attacking midfield slots are occupied by Harvey Barnes (£5.5m) and Rachid Ghezzal (£5.0m) while a recall for Jamie Vardy (£8.8m) sees Demarai Gray (£5.4m) drop to the bench.

As expected, Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£4.6m) sits out for Crystal Palace, covered at right-back by Joel Ward (£4.3m).

Further up the field for the Eagles, there is a first start for Michy Batshuayi (£6.5m).

Leicester XI: Schmeichel; Fuchs, Maguire, Evans, R Pereira; Tilemans, Ndidi; Barnes, Maddison, Ghezzal; Vardy.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; van Aanholt, Sakho, Tomkins, Ward; Schlupp, McArthur, Milivojevic; Zaha, Batshuayi, Townsend.

    Thoughts on these moves? Not sure on chip strategy yet, have all chips left:

    Son, kiko and firmino OUT

    Aguero, TAA and Almiron IN for -4

    Current team:

    Guiata, boruc
    Doherty, kolasinac, laporte, Robertson, kiko*
    Hazard, Son, Pogba, Salah, camarasa
    Firmino, rashford, jiminez

        1. McEwan
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Haha, tbh was needing a points boost on Sunday but that was above my expectations!

    3. F_Ivanovic
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Do you think Aguero will outscore Firmino by more than 4 points in 3 GW's compared to Firmino's 5 GWs?

  2. Daghe Munegu
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Is McNeil nailed?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Is McNail neiled is the bigger question

    2. Dreaming of glory
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Think so yea

  3. Jigger & Pony
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Play Rose (che) or use FT to get either Laporte (WHU) or TAA (WAT)?

    1. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Davies could well play instead of rose anyway.

      1. Jigger & Pony
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Yes I can see that...

        1. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          If you need blank coverage for 31/33 then taa might make sense.

  4. tafrère
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    19 pts with 4 players left, captain already played.

    This is goodbye to LMS.

    1. Garlana
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Keeper 3pts
      Doherty 5
      Son(c) 4
      Jiminez 7

      Am I close?

          misread... 🙁

      2. tafrère
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Jonny (2) and Alderweireld (1).

      You aren't even in the bottom 200 atm.

      1. tafrère
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Yes but if Salah or Aubameyang score this is over.

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Salah is 107 EO and Auba 57 in LMS.
          Salah blank would help.

          1. PrettyDick

            sorry, what does LMS stand for?

    Sooo.. Periera & Cook in for a hit worked out well!

    1. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      In the cold light of day does taking a hit for those 2 sound sensible?

      1. WrightnBright
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        When the players going out are Digne & AWB, yes.

        1. The 5% Team
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          yeah...just unlucky, seemed like decent transfers

        2. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Fair enough I suppose.

          Leicester have 4 cs all season though and bournemouth 6 - so can't be too surprised.

          I own chilwell though so what do i know.

          1. MTPockets
              5 years, 1 month ago

              7 and 7

              1. how now brown cow
                • 9 Years
                5 years, 1 month ago

                Sorry - my mistake

                Ruined the story.

            • PrettyDick
              • 6 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              Still though, to get 0 points from Pereira at home to Palace is unfortunate..

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            -4 to have a playing asset for 3 bgw:s makes sense...

          3. FPL Pillars
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Digne still to punish you next GW

      2. FPL Forward Thinker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Patience. Look it as a hit over a few weeks

    2. Dreaming of glory
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Think 27 shows fh in 31 would be a waste as Talent pool in massively reduced. Ud need to be v lucky to hit 60+ in reduced gw if it goes like this one

      1. PastaFasul
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Love the fact that only 3 players in the top 30 pt scorers for this game week have an ownership of more than 10% overall. I realize that may change in tomorrow's matches.

      2. Pukki Party
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Disagree,

        Alonso Robbo Digne
        Salah Mane Hazard Fraser
        Higuain King/Wilson Arnie

        For example

        1. Jigger & Pony
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Like it

    3. Vamos
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      35 with Salah (c), Robertson, Pogba and Rashford to go.

      If I can escape with Auba only getting a goal or so then I'll have had a very unexpectedly decent week.

      Up to the top 2500 in the world now. Never been this high before...

      1. how now brown cow
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Well done.

        A lot hinges on that game and I only have hojberg. Lol.

        1. Vamos
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Thanks, haven't gone crazy with hits this year or overly chased points. Just held onto players like Sterling knowing they'd come good at some point and it's worked better overall than swapping him every 2nd week for Hazard, Son etc in the main.

          1. how now brown cow
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Fair play.

            I'm around 8.5k but with son(c) fail and no arsenal coverage it'll be a big slide tomorrow.

            1. Vamos
              • 6 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              Haven't owned Son all season but this is the first week in 3 or so months I haven't wished I had done. He'll bounce back next GW.

                • 9 Years

                Planned to flog for mane anyway this week, depending on how things go....

      Wait a week for Auba to Aguero right?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Waiting a day at least.

        1. mgilbert86
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Keep for BOU home seems worth holding but aguero looks ruthless

      2. MTPockets
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I'd much rather have Aguero (and do), but would wait and see on PL/EFL lineups etc

        • Dank Squid
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Manchester City are often underwhelming in midweek games, and they also have the cup final a few days before, which is why I decided to bring Auba in and will probably give him both 27 and 28.

        • Lemongrab
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I'm sure I'll be making the move tomorrow in full rage when Auba blanks

      3. ItOnlyTook9Years
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Currently on 4 players in my squad playing gw31, so with 4 frees that makes 8. Worth planning for that or too few so free hit instead?

          Quality beats quantity half the time.
          Rondon is beating quite a few this week.

          1. Ginkapo FPL
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Did you just call Rondon quality?

            1. TorresMagic™

              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 14 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              "half the time"

        3. potatoace
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          It's really hard to say. There are pros and cons to each strategy this year. Personally I would say 8 players for 31 is fine (So long as they are not a gash 8)

        4. MTPockets
            5 years, 1 month ago

            If those 4 include liverpool wouldn't FH personally

            1. ItOnlyTook9Years
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              2 liverpool, will be 3 obvs

          • ItOnlyTook9Years
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Cheers all, will hopefully save a transfer this week and see where I'm at after next GW

          • pingissimus
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            How many for 33?

            If you have a couple Arsenal for 33 8 seems ok in 31

          That's not the Pereira haul I ordered 🙂

          1. MTPockets

              Awful. 10 from 5 here...

                • 10 Years
                5 years, 1 month ago

                Not so bad...28 (-4) from 5...good week for me to take a hit. AWB out for Lascelles worked out well. 6 to play with Auba(c).

                • 11 Years

                TAA goal tbh

                I have TAA, Robbo, Pog, Salah.

                I also have £300 on city to win the league (£800 back) so United win would be ideal

                Fixtures and blank 31.
                Sons next games are: che, ARS, sou, blank, liv, probably blank.
                Manes next games are: WAT, eve, BUR, ful, TOT, sou

                  • 8 Years
                  5 years, 1 month ago

                  I have Salah, Son, Mane and Pogba... aside from Hazard maybe in a couple weeks I can't see anyone who would replace Son.

            3. Dirty Harry
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              How does King get 3 bonus for scoring a goal but also missing a pen?

              1. TorresMagic™
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 14 Years
                5 years, 1 month ago

                Goal = 24 bps
                Pen miss = -6 bps and -2 points.

                1. Dirty Harry
                  • 8 Years
                  5 years, 1 month ago

                  You'd think missing a pen would be punished more.

                  1. TorresMagic™
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • Has Moderation Rights
                    • 14 Years
                    5 years, 1 month ago

                    A dodgy consolation penalty save is rewarded way too much so not really.

              On topic: probably skip Leicester asset.

              Off topic: just watched The Bodyguard. Who the heck shag their boss really?

                I thought about captaining Rondon, but then the people who actually posted they were considering it got raked across the coals. So I didn't. #hindsight2020

              For week 28 assuming no injuries tomorrow

              A Aguero Almirón or
              B Rondon Sterling

                It's incredibly close, personally leaning to A but I guess it depends more on who you're taking out.

                  Would be Son and Aubameyang

                Haven't Newcastle got Burnley?

                A - close but slightly less rotation threat with Kun.

                That said I have Kun but I’m not expecting hauls just the regular goal and managed minutes - I’d much prefer Salah for the hauls.

              Son > Mane for free? Or save ft?

                  5 years, 1 month ago

                  I would at some point over next few weeks, but not urgent given Chelsea's form
                  Didn't watch Spurs game though so no idea how Son looked today

                  I think would make move. With Kane back Son did not play well and Spurs have a lot of tricky fixtures ahead.

                  1. jdp219

                    To be fair, Son did well with Kane before the injury, so I'm not sure that's a strong argument.

                  I don't have the same scenario, but I'm thinking of saving regardless. Unless some injury bug hits.

                A) play anderson (mci a)
                B) play pva (mun h)
                C) Barnes (-4)
                D) rondon (-4)

                  B

                  Neither c or d for a hit and FA won’t feature next week unless off bench.

                  Probably A and hope.

                  The forwards can wait a week, should be a cagey game.

                People interested in Fraser after the next 2?

                  • 7 Years
                  5 years, 1 month ago

                  King/Wilson over Fraser for me, only cause I’ll have a forward to sell but Fraser will be a good pick.

                2. pingissimus
                  • 5 Years
                  5 years, 1 month ago

                  Most definitely - I’m not going near anything Leicester related and only Lanzini from WH could tempt me if he gets starts in the next two.

                Was a hit for Pereira a -2 or a -4? With no playing subs.

                  Mmmm not overly sure what to do. Bought Laca in for GW27 for a hit (Yeah stuffed up my transfers not realising the blanks/doubles would be confirmed over the FA Cup weekend)

                  Do I...

                  1. Laca > Aguero
                  2. Downgrade Shaw
                  3. Patricio out who can't buy a cleansheet
                  4. Other?

                  Patricio (Hamer)
                  Robertson Shaw Doherty AWB Bednarek
                  Salah Mane Pogba Son Hayden
                  Laca Jimenez Rashford

                      I have all chips available.
                      Thinking probably

                      1. FH32 WC34 BB35 TC Salah vs Hud

                      Or

                      2. FH31 TC32 WC34 BB35 but that kind of screws 33 with lack of players

                        5 years, 1 month ago

                        You have only 4 playing for GW 31 but 5 confirmed and 2 more if Palace gets knokced out for GW 33.
                        If you figure out your chip strategy it will be easier to plan your transfers.
                        Hamer to Boruc is a safe move as far as navigating blanks are concerned as Boruc is Blank-free.

                  Which two to play?

                  A) Anderson (Mci)
                  B) Rondon (Bur)
                  C) Digne (Car)
                  D) Periera (Bha)

                  Currently on Rondon and Digne.

                    CD

                    Don’t judge Pereira on today. Brighton are as rubbish away as Palace are good.

                    Looking forward to all the groans next week when he returns

                      Benching a player who just scored 12 points for a player who scored 0 feels a bit wrong though.
                      Have a feeling Leicester is becoming like Chelsea.

                        I know.

                        I’ll play Rondon (and Pereira) but that’s only because I want to carry two FTs into 29. I suspect there’ll be at least one manager out by this time next week.

                        Sarri (especially) Puel or Silva our coukd change the landscape

                  The move will be Robo+Son+Ings to TAA+Mcneil+Aguero.

                  I´ve looked at PL games during the last two seasons (including the current one) in which Agüero has scored at least three goals. Pattern verified.

                  GW 2, vs Huddersfield: Sane only played the last 25. Agüero: 3 goals, 1 assist.
                  GW 25, vs Arsenal: Sane no-show, Agüero: 3 goals.
                  GW 26, vs Chelsea: Sane no-show, Agüero: 3 goals.

                  Last season:

                  vs Watford 16th of September: Sane only played the last 30. Agüero: 3 goals.
                  vs Newcastle 20th of January: The only exception - Sane played the entire game. Agüero: 3 goals.
                  vs Leicester 10th of February: Sane no-show. Agüero: 4 goals.

                  Kun behaves differently when Sané isn´t on the pitch - spends more time in the box, instead of dropping back (and allowing Sterling to score from tap-ins). I saw the same thing (Lewa/Robben/Ribery) when Pep was managing Bayern.

                  For those considering Agüero/Sterling as C/TC in 32, knowledge of Sané status (first choice on the left?) might be crucial.

                      Nice observation. Have noticed Aguero can get fewer chances when Sterling's in the tap-in zone but never really thought it through.

                          Joking... My score is way worse than yours. Didn't like your post tbh. 😀

                    Maybe it's a bit early but who do you think is the best GK for GW31 & GW33?

                    Cheers!

                      Alisson

                        Already own Robbo... Not a huge fan of 2x on any team defence.

                        Thanks for your reply, appreciate it!

                      Probably Dubravka tbh.

                        Brave call given he’s not going to pkay 33 when Palace beat Watford

                      understand not doubling up on defenders as you’re forced to play the other 3 if there’s a bad fixture but no reason whatsoever to think of keeper as “doubling up” on defence

                        Prefer to spread the risk. Did it make more sense now?

                      Try Schmeichel- at least one cs in the bag. If not Heaton is the obvious call on form and solid defence and guaranteed 31 and 33

                    Where is the undo button? Surely if we get enough votes the Pereira+Anderson for a hit moves can be overturned?
