Zaha and Maupay on target as Brighton earn late draw at Selhurst Park

We conclude our Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Gameweek 6 write-ups with analysis of Crystal Palace v Brighton and Hove Albion.

For a summary of all seven of Saturday’s games, click here, while the footer at the bottom of this piece will direct you to our detailed Scout Notes on the other Gameweek 6 action.

CRYSTAL PALACE 1-1 BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION

  • Goals: Wilfried Zaha (£6.9m) | Neal Maupay (£6.5m)
  • Assists: Conor Gallagher (£5.7m) | Joel Veltman (£4.4m)
  • Bonus points: Maupay x3, Veltman x2, Robert Sanchez (£4.6m) x1, Zaha x1

ZAHA CONVERTS FROM THE SPOT

Having stepped up to convert a first-half penalty, Wilfried Zaha (£6.9m) has now scored five goals in his last five games against Brighton at Selhurst Park.

The 28-year-old carried most of the Eagles’ threat on the night, as Patrick Vieira’s side launched the majority of their attacks down his flank, with Zaha and Tyrick Mitchell (£4.5m) as involved as any in the final-third.

Despite tonight’s late set-back, it’s been a reasonable start to the season for Palace, who have six points from their opening six games. During that run, they’ve had a tricky set of fixtures, having already faced Liverpool and Chelsea, while it’s also worth noting that they remain unbeaten at home.

In an attacking sense, they have registered a league-low 14 shots on target, while only Spurs have accumulated fewer goal attempts. However, their 7.44 xG ranks mid-table, and there is potential to do well with Leicester City and Newcastle United’s shaky defences up next at Selhurst Park.

GALLAGHER LOSES SET-PIECES

In another energetic midfield display, Conor Gallagher (£5.7m) bagged an assist after winning the first-half penalty. The on-loan Chelsea man has now netted two goals and three assists this season, and ranks 11th amongst all midfielders for FPL points.

However, with Luka Milivojevic (£5.4m) returning to the starting XI tonight, he was no longer on set-pieces. 

Considering that 0.56 of his 0.84 xA total had arrived from dead-ball situations, it is a blow for his owners, though it is worth noting that he did take them back on once the Serb had departed on 72 minutes, which is something to monitor moving forward.

Conor Gallagher’s touch heatmap v Brighton and Hove Albion in Gameweek 6

“The players are as disappointed as I am, the fans too. To concede a goal like that with the last kick is difficult to accept. We have to look at the game and how difficult we made it for them. They’re a good side with a lot of confidence. We should take the three points.

We gave them so many problems. The way they played the last 15 minutes with long balls doesn’t look like them. Not scoring the second goal left the door open. That was an important moment for us. It was a tough game. Both teams didn’t create much.

We are improving. We’re getting stronger. The first few games we played against Chelsea, Liverpool, West Ham, we managed to create chances. We deserve to have more points so far. We’re in a good process.” – Patrick Vieira

FOUR IN SIX FOR MAUPAY

Neal Maupay’s (£6.5m) late equaliser was his fourth Premier League goal of the season, as he moved up to fifth in the forward standings after picking up three bonus points.

Graham Potter lined his troops up in a 3-4-1-2 formation, but switched to a back four in the second-half in an attempt to get back into the game.

However, despite that change of shape, they generally didn’t do enough in the final-third, though there was real quality about their late equaliser, with Joel Veltman (£4.4m) sending the ball through to Maupay, who dinked it over the keeper and into the back of the net.

Interestingly, goalkeeper Robert Sanchez (£4.6m) bagged a bonus point despite conceding and picking up a late yellow-card, having created a big chance for Danny Welbeck (£6.0m) in the first-half.

Further forward, the influential Yves Bissouma (£4.6m) missed tonight’s match with a knee injury. It’s fair to say the Seagulls missed his energy and ability to break up play in midfield, with further updates expected in the coming days over his availability for Gameweek 7.

As a result of the draw, Brighton remain undefeated in all three of their Premier League away matches this season, with Arsenal (h) up next before the international break.


C Palace XI: Guaita, Ward, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell, Milivojevic (Kouyate 72), McArthur, Gallagher, Ayew (Schlupp 86), Zaha, Edouard (Benteke 72)

Brighton XI: Sanchez, Duffy, Dunk, Burn (Alzate 45, Moder 65), Veltman, Gross, Lallana, Cucurella, Trossard, Welbeck (Connolly 76), Maupay

    which 3 players you choose from this list

    1. Ronaldo
    2. Mo Salah
    3. Lukaku
    4. Vardy
    5. Bruno
    6. Son
    7. Kane

    1. Gabbiadini

      1,2,3

    2. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      2,3,4 based on value. 1 might be a better than 4 but not sure if he is worth 2m more.

    3. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      1,2,3

    4. Calum Undisputed

      i gt 124 just switch to 234

    7. Jumpernot

      2 years, 6 months ago

      For me i'd say 2,3,4 personally.
      United don't have the best fixtures & Cheslea have better options which is why I swapped Ronaldo for Lukaku.

      Vardy is consistently returning and is overlooked with all the premium options. I can't fit him in my team but really wish I could and Leicester have some pretty decent fixtures for them to get some goals in.

      I don't think Ronaldo is worth the extra money at the moment. At first yes, but I feel like there could be a bit of a civil war at united. United look pants again, Ronaldo is going to get moody and cause a fuss, I can't see Ollie being able to handle him. Obviously just my opinion but that penalty situation is just the start of things to come I reckon.

    8. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I have 1,2,4 currently and will switch 1 to 3 as applicable.
      Vardy is gold at the moment, and Salah keeps chipping away, so no reason to not have them at the moment

    1. PapaWengzz

      Fantastic team! Can see why you are at that rank

      1. _Lingardinho_
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Best wild card ever week before

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Don't like wolves double up. 1.02m rank.

    3. RAMZES666
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Why Williams over TAA?
      Lvp could very well keep a CS and he has chance of attacking returns. Rested for Porto game as well, so no surprise benching

      1. The Knights Template
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        You're supposed to add your rank.

        1. RAMZES666
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          95k OR. Could be higher given that i stupidly benched Sa for Foster, thinking Watford has a higher chance of CS playing home

          1. The Knights Template
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            I don't want to hear your excuses (Sa owner and points-haul-getterer)!

            1. RAMZES666
              • 6 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              All good. Rolling with my sweet Antonio(C) saving me from red arrow 🙂

              1. The Knights Template

                Nice one.

      2. FantasyHero
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        TAA rested for Porto?

        1. RAMZES666
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Yes he didn't travel with the squad

  5. FPLtfs

    Only two saves, goal conceded, yellow card, and bonus point?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      shows the quality of game 😉

      1. fish&chips
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Guaita should have got 3 BPS. 4 saves and also created a big chance at the end 😉

        1. The Knights Template

      Exactly.. Shaw 15 pointer incoming

  8. Tibbs
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Undecided on which one:

    Shaw + Jota + Traore (-4) >>

    1) Rudiger + Raph + Saka (1m ITB)

    2) Rudiger + Raph + Benrahma (0.8 ITB)

    Don’t own Antonio so basically Saka or Benrahma?

      1. Based on Saka looking to have turned a corner and WH in Europe

  9. DunkinDonuts
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Should i double up on CFC defence or get a better keeper/defence?

    Bachmann/Foster
    TAA/Rudiger/Cancelo/Semedo/Liv
    Salah/Jota/Gray/Raphina/McArthur
    LKK/Jim/Antonio

    0.1itb, 1 transfer

    a) Semedo to Christensen
    b) Bachmann to Ramsdale
    c) Semedo to Tierney
    d) Jota to Sarr/Saka , Semedo to Alonso for -4

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      You said could you get a better defence then presented Arsenal players!

      1. DunkinDonuts
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I think arsenal has turned the corner. Bachmann was a bad choice and the best 4.5 i see at the mom is Ramsdale
        Tierney seems like a good option as well (or White).

        Recommendations welcome though!

        1. The Knights Template
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Tierny of those you mentioned, and good luck.

    2. mojoindojo

      D with Saka

      1. DunkinDonuts
        • 5 Years

        Thank you, not sure if i should do it over 2 weeks though and save the 4 points.

  12. RAMZES666
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Jota owners here, what are your plans for him moving forward?

    Plays striker for a team which still creates obscene amount of chances,
    However fixtures are getting harder and Firmino returning from injury.

    I am not sure if it is worth 2 transfers to downgrade him to someone in the 5.5-6.5m price range and upgrade a 4.5m def to Cancelo as i still see some value for 7.5m mid playing OOP.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah, I'm gunna hold im.

    2. Philosopher's Stones

      Looking to ship him this week. Still not sure who to replace him with tho. Looking for a one week punt as I'll WC in gw8

      1. RAMZES666
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Sarr is a good shout this week. I'm looking at either Gallagher/Everton mid (already have Sarr and Benrahma)

    3. jackruet

      Keeping him this week. Cz i want 2 ft before int break

        Smart move, but not getting Chelsea def for GW7?

        1. jackruet

    How is she looking?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Like Mirander Kerr in a Catwoman costume.

  14. Amartey Partey
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    I think my guess a couple weeks ago about United and penalties was right. Bruno takes them unless it’s Ronaldo who wins the penalty then he takes it. I reckon that is why Ronaldo was trying so hard to get a penalty against West Ham.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Have we seen Ronaldo take a self-earned penalty?

  15. FCSB

    Just went for a run and thought about Joel Veltman the whole time and how he had rewarded the faith paid in him… needless to say I registered a PB

      Well I've been thinking about Miranda Kerr in a Catwoman suit and I'm on the couch binge-watching Wandavision. TKT 1 - FCSB 0.

    How do you guys think of these moves?

    Shaw / Hoever / Jota >>> Rudiger / Alonso / Saka for -4.

    1. The Knights Template

      Can't argue here, go for it.

      1. FPL ElasticO

  17. Original Sin

    My current Front 3 are Lukaku, Antonio, Eduardo

    Got Eduardo as a punt but he is not returning as expected, at least he played some more minutes yesterday. Should I ship him out? I have 3.6 ITB, I can do Jesus in GW8, or Vardy. Any thoughts?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      How long have you owned him?

      1. Original Sin

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      What sort of returns were you expecting? Before yesterday he hadn't started a match and had played a grand total of 31 minutes.

      1. Original Sin
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        What do you recon? Did he look good though? GW8 Jesus/Vardy if he doesn't come good next GW?

          Was neither here nor there for mine. If you really think he's got points in him back yourself in but he's not nailed and doesn't have the easiest of fixtures.

    3. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I think in the short term its worth moving him on to someone in form like ASM if you have the funds.

      1. Original Sin
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yes 3.6 ITB, I don't have any plan of using the fund elsewhere, so maybe Jesus over ASM?

        1. PapaWengzz
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Jesus playing out wide puts me off but he could still be a great pick for the price.

        2. The Knights Template

          2 years, 6 months ago

          You'll make Eduardo cry. He's asked me to ask you for one last chance. Promises a goal and assist.

          1. Original Sin
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Lol good one. Tell him that his wish has been granted and he gets one more week. But if he fails again, then he needs to be ready for the consequences, chopped off from my team

      2. PapaWengzz
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Just seen that you have funds, I would definitely shift him to Vardy or ASM depending on the kind of team structure you want.

    4. Calum Undisputed
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I would go for vardy. ppl might be put of by his price but for leicester he is the only one who scores

  18. akhilrajau
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Pls suggest 2 to play
    A. TAA
    B. Coufal
    C. Toney

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Take TAA out of the equation, just cannot bench him for mine.

      I'm always reluctant to bench attackers over defenders but probably just Coufal due to home game.

      1. akhilrajau
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yea i thought like this but the confusion is for TAA city match. Toney is playing good and also in the penalty. Coufal liek u told home game so .

      2. akhilrajau
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Ok who to play between coufal and Marcal

        1. Calum Undisputed
          • 2 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          TAA MARCAL

          1. akhilrajau
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            K thnak u so better taa, marcal and toney and coufal on bench

    Is it gtg?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years

      If only we could have four Burnley players. This is what you're thinking I'll bet.

      1. The Knights Template
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Gtg to Turf Moor

      2. Professional07
        • 2 Years

        Lol.. Yeah
        Any changes you recommend?

        1. The Knights Template
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I'd want a bench, personally.

  20. The Knights Template
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Gtg to Turf Moor

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      We should all go to Turf Moor. Tough jousting at Turf Moor. Ok I think I've covered up the reply fail beautifully. Nobody will notice I'm sure. And if they do I'll spin my way out of it with a lazy Shaw to Rudiger post!

      1. Harry the Hack
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Spin your way out of it? Are you running for public office?

  21. Lingard’s Shin Guards
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Choose one

    Zaha
    Grealish
    Benrahama
    Gray/Townsend
    Saka
    Gallagher

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Saka

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Also really struggling with this one, might even get 2 of them for Greenwood and Jota

    2. fish&chips
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I'm looking at this too. Probably Grealish if I had the funds but I don't so I think Saka is the best option given that all the others have fixtures which are already poor or soon turning sour.

    3. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Went Saka & Gray

    4. Harry the Hack
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      If you can get a package Gray/Townsend deal for one slot, I'd go with that

    5. Calum Undisputed
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Grealish
      else townsend

  22. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Lining up like this,

    Cheeky Alonso C?

    Sa
    Trent, Alonso, Tierney, Semedo
    Salah, Greenwood, Saka, Gray
    Lukaku, Antonio

    4.0, Sissoko, Livramento, #Bamford

    .7

    1. Harry the Hack
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      ive thought about the odd cheeky move or two myself in my time. A Chilwell start and late sub would hurt though

      1. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Lukaku is the obvious but like to go against, might go Antonio for 3rd time

        1. Whazza
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Antonio 8 attacking returns
          Kaku 3

          Keep it simple.

          1. Harry the Hack
            • 14 Years

                  Haha on a serious note. Antonio looks unstoppable this season. Chelsea rarely score more than 2. I think it's Antonio C for me

                  1. Harry the Hack
                    • 14 Years
                    2 years, 6 months ago

                    Chelsea are flat track bullies. I don't think you'll blank with Ant, but I'm finding it hard to look away from Kaku. If I don't, it would be the cheeky Alonso.

                    1. Whazza

                      • 11 Years
                      2 years, 6 months ago

                      Both good options for sure!

    'In general it’s quite good, but still we can do better. John Stones needs minutes, he arrived late from the summer, got injured and then Aymeric Laporte and Ruben Dias are playing really well.

    The season is so long and I know he’ll be ready. He’ll get minutes but sometimes he’ll have to wait. Sometimes you have to wait and be on the bench, like Ayme last season.’

    Pep Guardiola.

    1. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      That sounds like a benching for Stones this season, in majority of the important matches.

      Stones to start next game

    Lukaku needs to step up or we won’t be seeing him anywhere near the top of the FPL table!

    Ronaldo without pens is way too expensive!

    5-6 game weeks and we might be back to the budget / mid priced front line!

    1. _Gunner
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Are you getting Lukaku this week though? OR wait till after the IB?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2. Nabs Kebabs
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Auba looking decent

      1. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years

        And Vardy

        1. Nabs Kebabs
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Yep absolutely

    3. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Vardy Antonio essential. Toney ASM even Auba/Jesus looking the better options currently

  28. fish&chips
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Can Lukaku wait until GW9? Southampton and Brentford don't look like thrashing and I fancy utd to put a few past Everton and Leicester

    1. JammySprat
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      My thinking.

    2. DAZZ
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Hard to decide. Im leaning towards Ron > Lukaku for free. Cant see Big Rom blanking for a third straight game, he’s been so unlucky. Just think Chelsea turn the screw now

    3. Calum Undisputed
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      i got lukaku
      hoping he can better bully southampton defense like Jimenez esp without livramento
      Brenford good draw with lpool but i still see it as conceded 3 on their first real test against top side.
      lets see them against antonio

  29. dashdriver
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    What should I do with this team?

    Guaita / Steele
    TAA / Dias / Shaw* / Duffy / Williams
    Salah / Raphinha / Sarr / Benrahma / Normann
    Ronaldo / Bamford* / Antonio

    64k OR / £0.5 ITB / WC played / 1FT

    A) Bamford & TAA > Lukaku & Livramento (-4)
    B) Ronaldo > Lukaku
    C) Bamford & Shaw > ASM & Alonso (-4)?
    D) Shaw > Alonso or Rudiger
    E) Anything else?

    1. JammySprat
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Lots of options, where you leaning?

      1. dashdriver
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Leaning towards A. Feel like I need Lukaku in my team now, and thinking TAA can be dropped due to difficult fixtures.

        1. dashdriver
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Just don't like taking a hit to bring in Livramento when I plan to bench him, but it's the only way I can afford Lukaku other than a direct switch with Ronaldo.

        2. JammySprat
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Not sure fixtures matters for pool defence and Watford next. You would also be bringing in Liv on a hit playing against your other transfer. That said if you think TAA going to struggle and Lukaku shine it would be the move.

  30. Nabs Kebabs
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Not many considering dropping TAA? Cancelo and Alonso/Rudiger with 3 cheapies looks good enough to me.

    1. JammySprat
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Definitely an option, just be annoying if cancelo or Alonso are rotated and TAA gets 12pts when he's highly owned

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Considering going TAA Alonso and Cancelo back three

      1. JammySprat
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        CAT at the back
