In Gameweek 38, Crystal Palace and Liverpool play host to Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wanderers respectively.

But which of their Fantasy Premier League (FPL) assets have the best chance of hauling?

Here, we identify the weaknesses Palace and Liverpool could try to exploit.

ASTON VILLA: LEFT FLANK

Lucas Digne (£4.6m) has started each of Aston Villa’s last seven Premier League games because of Alex Moreno’s (£4.9m) injury issues, largely performing well.

However, the 30-year-old looked massively off the pace against Liverpool on Monday night.

In a lacklustre display, he only completed 70% of his 40 attempted passes.

Beaten easily by Mohamed Salah (£13.4m) for two early chances, Digne was caught out countless times and looked shaky throughout.

Salah’s end product might have let him down, but the spaces were there.

And they normally are for Aston Villa’s opponents in recent times. Unai Emery’s troops have conceded six goals in their last three matches and, significantly, are third-worst for key passes conceded from their left flank over the last four.

  Probably the toughest FPL competition out there to win and you did it with one gameweek to spare. Scout need to hire you as a pro pundit!

    Won with two matches to spare (presumably the three finalists have no differentiators in these last two matches).
    GW37 was always going to be its final Gameweek.

  Yeah, I agree. Some merit in the proposed changes to the rules - play without a GK so there's more goals scored!

Newcastletoons predicting changes to the back line tonight; Burn to move to LB and Dummett at CB. I fancy a few surprises tonight.

    Just been checking the internet and can’t find anything beyond the press release. Photos of Ben Parkinson training suggest they’re readying alternative striker options though; I’m not optimistic of either Wilson or Isak starting although the latter seemed more likely

      Interesting - I’d expect Isak to start given his illness was characterized as mild.

  Skipping Salah, looking at Olise, Havertz, Cho or Mateta.
  For either Bruno, Gordon & Isak, probably do two for -4

An idea guys:
Would it not be effective to restrict EO next season and allow a free transfer for a red flag?
I believe injuries and EO knowledge has a detrimental impact on the game.
Just some thoughts.

  An extra transfer for a red flag would likely increase ownership of popular players, certainly for engaged fantasy managers.

  One game to go with uncertain levels of motivation and a litany of injuries- it’s difficult to have confidence in any moves at the moment.
  
  I’m thinking who’s most in the beach. I feel West Ham will turn up with deckchairs and suntan cream
