Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Obvious Starts
Jordan Ayew-M/F ($8,100 DK)
Since returning from AFCON he’s only managed to get three shots off in two matches. However, on the season, he averages 11.4 FPPG. Considering how many gaps Chelsea leaves in midfield, Ayew will get his opportunities. And when given the chance, he can make it count!
Cole Palmer– M ($9,400 DK)
The midfielder gets 13.1 FPPG. Additionally, with some of the injury concerns heading in (More on them later) he should see an increased role. Particularly with the happenings on the side of Crystal Palace, even if the away team drops points, he will give you nice fantasy production and value.
Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Start ‘Em
Raheem Sterling– M/F ($7,400 DK)
In 19 starts he has 5 goals. Although Sterling is not nearly as consistent as you’d like him to be with chances, he still gives you fantasy points. At 10,1 FPPG his inclusion is more about how he will likely have plenty of one-on-one opportunities today. In reality, if he doesn’t threaten the goal today, it’s hard to see a better opportunity to do so in general.
Odsonne Edouard– F ($6,300 DK)
At 9.0 FPPG this is about the upside of playing a porous Chelsea defense. Sure, his service may be a bit more limited today. (No I haven’t forgotten.) However, chances will come and even if it’s a half chance, my money is on the visitors conceding over anything else.
Chelsea vs Crytal Palace Sit ‘Em
Michael Olise– M ($10,000 DK) and Eberechi Eze-M/F ($9,500 DK)
Both will be ruled out for the Monday matchup. Ultimately, this explains why the line is where it is at. With both high producers being out, Chelsea will likely find an easier time today. However, if these two were healthy, you’d have to like the chances of Crystal Palace to pull off a result.
Nicolas Jackson– F ($7,800 DK)
However, regardless of who can play on the other side, Jackson remains a fantasy liability. He has the talent to have a nice game, but his efforts have been too inconsistent. Especially, as he is coming off a game with a goal against Aston Villa, stay away!
Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Lock of the Day
Enzo Fernandez– M ($5,700 DK)
The middle of the park needs to be his today! Coming off a 10.1 fantasy day, you can expect him to build off that performance. Fantasy value is circumstantial, but because of the injuries to Crystal Palace, Fernandez is set up to have a nice day for Chelsea.
