Gameweek 23 comes to a close on a wintry Elland Road tonight as Leeds United take on Crystal Palace.
The start is at 20:00 GMT.
Patrick Bamford (£ 6.7m) carries the hopes of nearly 50% of Fantasy managers tonight, having seen their ownership increase even further in the last Gameweek – just under 250,000 FPL bosses transferred in front before the Saturday deadline.
Bamford’s ownership has risen about 85% in the top 10k, with Stuart dallas (£ 4.8 million) is also widely owned among this elite group – the Northern Ireland international is on more than one in three of these teams.
As we have grown used to seeing this season, Leeds has not changed from their previous game.
There is not Pablo Hernandez (£ 5.7 million) between the substitutes, however, and the veteran playmaker was lost through injury.
The news from the Palace team is more remarkable, with Roy Hodgson opting for the field Tyrick mitchell (£ 3.9 million) and Patrick van Aanholt (£ 5.4 million) on the same side.
One of them, probably Van Aanholt, will probably play “out of position” higher up the left flank.
Hodgson also delivers Jean-Philippe Mateta (£ 5.9m) his debut, with Michy Batshuayi (£ 5.7 million) in the bank alone and Wilfried zaha (£ 7.2 million) absent due to a hamstring problem.
Mitchell and Leeds’ Pascal Struijk (£ 3.9m) are two of Gameweek 23’s three cheapest starters, with the latter being part of their eighth straight lineup at Bielsa in the Premier League.
The reverse encounter between these two teams ended with a 4-1 victory for Palace, a match in which Eberechi Eze (£ 5.8m) posted his highest FPL score of the season.
Leeds United XI: Meslier, Ayling, Cooper, Struijk, Alioski, Dallas, Klich, Phillips, Harrison, Raphinha, Bamford.
Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Van Aanholt, Cahill, Dann, Clyne, Mitchell, Milivojevic, Riedewald, Eze, Mateta, Ayew.
