Fantasy interest minimal as relegation-threatened Villa face crucial Palace clash

It’s not quite last-chance saloon territory for Aston Villa but, seven points adrift of safety and with only four matches remaining, a victory over Crystal Palace is surely a must this afternoon if they want to keep their slim chances of avoiding relegation alive.

Kick-off at Villa Park is at 14:15 BST.

Both managers originally made one change apiece from the sides they sent out in Gameweek 34+ but an injury to Kortney Hause (£4.4m) in the warm-up has seen Ahmed Elmohamady (£4.1m) replace him.

Dean Smith has also recalled Conor Hourihane (£5.7m) to the Villa midfield, with Anwar El Ghazi (£5.3m) dropping to the bench.

That should see Jack Grealish (£6.0m) move to a more advanced position down the left of the hosts’ attack.

Keinan Davis (£4.3m) is only among the substitutes, as is the fit-again Matt Targett (£4.3m).

Pepe Reina (£4.2m) recovers from a hamstring strain to start.

Roy Hodgson’s one alteration is an enforced one.

Gary Cahill (£4.4m) looks set to miss the rest of the season with a hamstring injury, so Mamadou Sakho (£5.0m) gets the nod to replace him at centre-half.

Budget FPL defender Martin Kelly (£4.1m) is back on the bench after recovering from a calf problem.

It’s fair to say interest is limited in this one from a Fantasy perspective.

Grealish is the only player in either starting XI who has a double-digit ownership in Fantasy Premier League.

‘Ghost teams’ will account for some of that ownership and, if we instead look at the top 10,000 in FPL, not a single player from either Villa or Palace is owned by more than 3%.

Grealish’s ownership within this elite group is only at 2.13%.

Nine of Palace’s ten clean sheets this season have come against sides in the bottom half.

The Villans have scored just twice in their last eight Premier League matches.


Aston Villa XI: Reina, Elmohamady, Konsa, Mings, Taylor, McGinn, Douglas Luiz, Hourihane, Trezeguet, Samatta, Grealish.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Ward, Dann, Sakho, van Aanholt, Zaha, Kouyate, Milivojevic, McArthur, Ayew, Benteke.

    VAR is getting worse. That was top of the shoulder, near the head

      Yup. It's like a monkey is making rhe decisions

      Not surprising. Jon Moss is blind as a bat. He is no better at looking at a TV screen than he is on the pitch.

    FFS Members Area says Jiminez 0 BAPS

    FPL says Jimenez 2 BAPS

    Which is correct?

    1. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
      • 8 Years

      Fpl

    2. George Agdgdgwngo

      Hopefully fpl

      Members needs to add 3bp for the game winning goal bonus
      I thought they added it in the calculation but it seems not

    4. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Mark owns Jimenez... shameless at this point

  3. A Fat Spanish Waiter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    So... Jon Moss is poor at BOTH Var and actual Refereeing. Shocking. He shouldn’t be anywhere near a professional football match.

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Having seen him in action in the flash - I totally agree, even though he gave us a penalty.

  4. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    TAA+Sarr+Jiminez
    To
    Egan(bench)+Pulisic+Jesus(C)

    For -4, good moves?

  5. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Vardy better do well... or Jimenez to Vardy was a waste of a transfer.

    Also confused as to why I’ve been paying premium for Doherty over Boly (who I had before) for weeks... has he even been close to attacking returns?

    1. Greek Freak
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      He hasn't. Ever since the restart his attacking threat has been non-existent.

    2. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah hoping for Vardy to do better than Jimi for this reason
      Doherty looked tired today - not sure I’ll be keeping

    3. tokara
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      At this stage, value is meaningless

  6. potatoace
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Well at least there's clarity now.
    Top of the shoulder is now part of your hand/arm now....apparently.

  7. FantasyHero

    Some help here lads.

    Reina Martinez
    Lascellas saiss awb aurier egan
    Sterling kdb foden saka martial
    Vardy jimmy greenwood

    Thinking of maybe
    A. Vardy to ings
    B. Saka to willian/pulisic
    C. Lascellas to azpi/Alonso
    D. Something else?

    1. Thomas M.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Either Vardy or Jimi to Ings sounds good.
      And a Chelsea mid for Norwich looks good. Puli has looked really good despite last game giving Willian easy goals tho. Just a matter of time until he unleashes

      1. FantasyHero
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Bringing in chelsea mid for saka would mean i would have to bench vardy or jimmy. Although dont think my city mids all will start but canr risk benching any.

  8. Rainer

    Super Wolves 😎

  9. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Glad I didn't go the Jimmy to Vardy route atm. Might even keep him for the season.

    1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      You won’t be saying that later after vardy smashed Bournemouth !

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah, that could happen. Results have killed B'mouth.

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      A nice parting gift I think, Ings calling!

      Were Wolves good or Everton pants?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Didn't watch, sounds like a poor game for both.
        Might upgrade Connolly to Ings

    3. Greek Freak
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I've gone the Jimmy to Kane to Vardy for a couple of hits route 😀

      Now waiting for Vardy to be out tonight and for Lascelles to come off my bench.

    4. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Why? Vardy could easily score Jimenez + 4 and then some

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Hence atm, wouldn't have got the obvious Sterling (c) for Foden move in.

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Sterling (c), join the club.. but would have kept Foden for Bournemouth and Watford

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years

            May get him back this GW.

      2. Goonsquad245
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        What do you think Vardy’s points expectation is later?

        I don’t think it’s higher than 8, let alone 12.

    5. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Did that couple of weeks ago already three goals up + todays

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years

        Of course, looks a bad GW to sell with hindsight. Had other fires.

    6. MidTableFantasy
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy could kill Bournemouth... but I don't see much happening after that

    7. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years

      One more game for me, then he becomes Auba for 37 and 38

  10. Grounderz

    3 years, 8 months ago

    Why can’t they just play all the games at the same time? Oh yes, TV money...

    1. Supersonic Marv'
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      And we wouldn't be able to watch them all.

        FPL points > watching

      3. Long ago I drew a walrus

        Do you actually want to watch Villa v Palace though

        1. Supersonic Marv'
          • 7 Years

          No I'm watching the grand prix.

      Unique circumstances too.

      Extra TV money for the clubs to replace footfall.

      1. Now I'm Panicking
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        They never play all the games at the same time anyway (apart from last game of the season) - have no idea what the OP is complaining about tbh

        1. Grounderz
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          They do and that’s GW38.

            Read the post again....

              You’ve bitten the bone for far too long and let that go. Thank you for reacting to my post.

      The suspense is killing me when I have thousand bucks at stake.

    8. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Dumbest thing to complain about. No one is forcing you to watch, others enjoy more football.

  11. Zimo
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Can't believe Dean Smith had the audacity to complain because of the penalty given against them last week when they got a point because the goal line technology failed Sheffield United. Now today a shoulder goal is ruled out for handball and he'll probably say it was correctly ruled out. Aston Villa really deserve to ger relegated.

    1. Dennis System
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      This makes zero sense

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah sorry. I was just mad at how inconsistent and plain wrong VAR is. I have nothing against Villa.

  12. Arron Wan Bissaka Nil
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Digne, Sterling, Jesus for Trent, Salah and Jimenez for a 4pt hit. Yay or nay?

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      You're bringing in the first 3?

      Seems okay but I expect one of Jesus and Sterling to not start the next game.

      1. Arron Wan Bissaka Nil
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah it would be. Thats my fear but my mini league rival had Antonio and captain Sterling, so need something drastic!

    2. tokara

      Digne injured

  13. Rainer

    What’s the story with Jimmys BPS?

    He’s missing 3BPS in members which could be GWG but then Dendockner is to lose 3, with no dispossessions...

    1. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      looks like ffs haven't added the winning goal 3bps

      Wolves played some great football today. Some great passing, dribbling and goals.
      Jimi was involved in none of it. But he did kick a stationary ball into a net , so 2 baps it is.

      1. tokara
        • 9 Years

        Lol what a summary

    Also, would you sell Doherty? At least downgrade to a cheaper WOL defender like Boly?

    1. bombayblues
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Considering the exact same. Looking to use the funds to upgrade Nketiah to Ings or 5th mid to Pulisic

    2. DAZZ
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Not worth the transfer personally. Might aswell hold on for burnley and PALACE

    3. ElliotJHP
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Seems a bit of a waste of a transfer at this point unless you really need funds

  15. FatLever

    3 years, 8 months ago

    I was checking Sheffield Uniteds losses and I couldnt find the 9 losses they have in all tables.
    Can you find the 2 'missing' ones ? Here are all the losses I can find...

    M Utd (a) 0-3
    M City (h) 0-1
    L'pool (a) 0-2
    M City (a) 0-2
    Newc (h) 0-2
    L'pool (h) 0-1

    Pretty impressive.

    What to do with Mahrez, surely he won't start against Bournemouth?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      By minutes, he shouldn’t if Pep wants him for the SF, who knows though.

    2. ElliotJHP
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Heard the same before this game, he can still get points off bench too in this city side

    3. Strchld
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah, could transfer him to Pulisic, but If he starts..

    An absolute joke that they manipulate Jimenez baps. He should have 0. This is blatant cheating from someone with access to the engine. Ive never seen FFS/Opta stats get the wrong output before. Someone call them out on it on twitter please.. I dont have an account

    1. Totti
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      this happened every single week for FPL admins sake 🙂

      1. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        No it doesnt. Its changed from the BPS that show at full time because they havent accounted for game winning goal and dispossessions. However, the OPTA/FFS stats are always correct. This time somehow they arent? Whats the explanation if not blatant manipulation.

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      It’s been going on for years. There is no transparency with the decisions. Stats and bonus can be manipulated to suit people’s needs. It’s no surprise

      Why would you sell someone who will play for someone who won't?

      I’m actually thinking of salah to D Silva and using the money the following week to do DCL to aubameyang for the last 2 games

    If you had a wildcard now to set up a ghost team for the last 3 GWs, no transfers allowed after, who would you go for? I think I might look at something like

    Ederson
    Azpilicueta Boly Taylor fodder fodder
    Bruno Martial Sterling Dilva Pulisic
    Aubameyang Ings Greenwood

      Looks pretty good.

  25. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Jimmy, Sarr + Mahrez out Ings + Foden + Antonio/Chelsea mid for -8 a bit too much?

    1. bombayblues
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Not a fan of -8s but could really pay off the hit

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Could be Dilva instead perhaps. See what happens in the game tomorrow.

        1. bombayblues
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Is Mahrez not expected to start? I have a similar dilemma - either to play Nketiah + Mahrez for Ings + Pulisic or
          Nketiah + Doherty for Ings + Boly. Trying to get a 15 to BB in GW38

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            50/50 for Mahrez imo. More about money and that Foden/Dilva may start the next 2 and miss FA Cup.

    2. Long ago I drew a walrus
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I'd do it. Pulisic ahead of Antonio if you can afford.

    3. Thomas M.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      -8 looks too much. Jimmy + Mahrez just?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Play Sarr, which mid to get? Could even upgrade Connolly and keep Jimmy.

        1. Thomas M.
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Pulisic and Jesus? I think Pulisic has looked really good lately (apart from last game maybe). About to explode. Looking at Vardy + Mahrez -> Jesus and X atm -4

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            Jesus is a bit of a troll but can see the attraction, cheers.

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Cheers all.

      Bit too much can you do a -4?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        -4, could keep Jimmy or Sarr.

      Depends on your desires for the season.
      It's outside what could normally be expected & will stay there.
      Have some fun, make some moves/hits that you wouldn't do if in top 10k.
      See if there are any lessons to be learned for the future.
      Good luck.

        Cheers, guess the aim is top 100K now.

    7. HollywoodXI

      Can you do Jesus and Pulisic? That’s my move for a hit this week (Mahrez and Jiménez out).

  26. bombayblues
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Have the following team:

    McCarthy (Pope)
    TAA. Doherty. Saiss. Taylor (Baldock)
    Salah. KDB. Mahrez. Bruno (Hayden)
    Vardy. Greenwood (Nketiah)

    Chasing in my ML and looking to have a decent 15 to BB in GW38

    Does it make sense to do
    1. Mahrez + Nketiah = Pulisic + Ings (-4)
    2. Doherty + Nketiah = Boly + Ings (-4)

    Looking to do Hayden + Vardy = Soucek + Jesus in GW37

    Would appreciate any help

  27. Thomas M.
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    With a midfield of Sterling, KDB, Mahrez, Martial and Pulisic
    Thinking of transferring Mahrez+Vardy out for Jesus and X.

    Who should be X? Got 10mil. Cant get Bruno 🙁

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      I'd get Foden for next week. He's most likely to start.

  28. potatoace
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3pbs for a so called "winning goal" in a 3-0 result is a joke.

    1. Thomas M.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      3? what did I miss? currently on 2?

      1. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        bps not baps. Its how he end up with 30bps

        1. Thomas M.
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          my bad

    2. fr3d

      Who did you kneejerk him out for this week?

      1. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I'll tell you after the Leicester match 🙂

    3. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Don’t think that’s the question to ask of the BPS system. It’s consistent and it’s true, 1-0 Jimmy goal would have won the game.

      There are issues with BPS but that isn’t one.

      It’s not Jimmys fault the others couldn’t muster up more BPS.

      Forward goal is 24 BPS which helps him too.

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      They should give it to the last goal or only if the difference is 1 goal. Man City players wouldn't get it often these days.

      1. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I think they should just rid of such an arbitrary bonus.

      2. Pipermaru
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Why fix something that is not broken? I wonder how many people arguing that Jimenez bonus only because they sold him before this GW and/or have a bad GW score so far?

    Who is your captain for GW36+?

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Foden

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      KDB, might be Pulisic or Ings come Tuesday.

      Tricky week.

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Probably Pulisic.

      5 days rest til the semi, Norwich at home.

    4. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Current team (1 FT, 2.3 ITB) :

    Patricio
    TAA, Saiss, Digne
    KDB, Mahrez, Bruno, Martial, Salah
    Greenwood, Jimenez

    Worth playing FH to get:

    DDG
    AWB, Azpi, Alonso*
    KDB, Sterling, Bruno, Antonio, Pulisic
    Jesus, Ings

    *Doherty over Alonso unless we get early team news with him starting

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      No IMO, your original team could easily score more

      1. ryacoo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Wow, really? I hate it tbh, Mahrez rest seems inevitable.
