Struijk returns to Leeds side as Eze starts for Crystal Palace

Fantasy Premier League defender Pascal Struijk (£4.0m) returns to the Leeds United starting XI as they face Crystal Palace in Gameweek 8.

The versatile option was recently designated as the replacement for Kalvin Phillips (£4.9m) ahead of a Gameweek 6 trip to Liverpool, only to get substituted inside the opening half-hour after a dismal showing.

However, following a 4-1 home defeat to Leicester, Marcelo Bielsa has turned back to Struijk, who comes into the time in the place of Jamie Shackleton (£4.8m).

The main attention from this game is sure to be on the attacking options though with Patrick Bamford (£6.0m) leading the line and yet to blank on the road this season.

Owned by 33.2%, he is the most popular asset at Selhurst Park this afternoon although Wilfried Zaha (£7.4m) is not that far behind him.

Meanwhile, Eberechi Eze (£5.8m) makes his first start since Gameweek 4.

29% of Fantasy managers come into Gameweek 8 with the out-of-position midfielder, who starts up-front with Jordan Ayew (£5.7m) up-front.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; van Aanholt, Dann, Kouyaté, Clyne; Eze, Riedewald, McArthur, Townsend; Zaha, Ayew.

Leeds United XI: Meslier; Dallas, Cooper, Koch, Ayling; Struijk; Harrison, Alioski, Klich, Costa; Bamford.

    All my players have returned so far, KWP, Lamptey, Zaha and DCL.

    ML rivals still crushing me as they have Bruno!

    What can you do?

      Just accept it. Better to be unlucky in FPL, then unlucky in other parts of your life. Noone is lucky in everything.

      Am in the same position as you, 4 returns so far and no Bruno. My advice: be positive and pleased you made good choices. Should give you more confidence for future picks. And it's a long season!

            Yeah that's the one thing putting me off doing it. I could swap Son and Kane out for Bruno and Martial and then do the wildcard a week later. It would mean another hit though, and I've already taken about 5 this season.

      Robbo hasn't played yet... but yes. I did warn everyone that they shouldn't be blinded by Robbo's price. Lamptey was clearly a better option to start. (which is what I did)
