Off the back of Palace's first Premier League win of the season last time, there's plenty to consider in your Fantasy Premier League line-up this weekend!
This season, we have teamed up with Fantasy Football Scout to help bring you hints, tips and advice during the 2026/27 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) season.
Scout will be using their expertise to provide advice and gameweek tips which should prove useful in ensuring you win your mini-leagues.
Remember that the Gameweek 4 deadline falls tomorrow (Saturday, 12th September) at 13:30 BST – so hurry to adjust your team with our advice below!
Last week’s Player Spotlight was Tyrick Mitchell (£4.5m),and the defender really shone in Gameweek 3.
Mitchell’s 15 FPL points was the biggest return of any player in the game and came courtesy of two goals and two bonus points.
Ben Chilwell (£4.5m) also impressed in Gameweek 3. Chilwell came off the bench to make his Palace debut and scored the winning goal with his first touch, registering him seven points in FPL.
Meanwhile, Yéremy Pino (£5.5m) and Daichi Kamada (£5.0m) continue to look like excellent options. Both midfielders are only owned by 0.3% of managers making them fantastic differentials. Pino and Kamada both registered five points this weekend courtesy of their assists.
There were other returns across the Palace team in Gameweek 3 with Eddie Nkeitah (5.5m) also registering four points in FPL for his assist.
Axel Disasi (£4.5m) and Anan Khalaili (£5.0m) both registered enough defensive contributions (blocks, tackles, clearances and interceptions) to return the two additional Defensive Contribution points. Khalaili has now achieved that threshold in each of the last two gameweeks.
Goalkeeper Dean Henderson (£5.0m) also made five saves in Gameweek 3 which earned him an additional save point in FPL.
Palace’s World Cup winner Pino has made a good start to the season in FPL.
Pino has returned in both the games that he has started so far this season, registering an assist in both Gameweeks 2 and 3, to ensure back-to-back five-point returns. Only one player in the game has more assists than Pino so far this season.
Pino has had four shots to date, only Mitchell has had more across the Palace team so far.
He has also created the joint most chances across the Palace team with Nkeitah. Only Mitchell and Nkietah have had more penalty area touches than Pino in during the 26/27 season to date.
Pino has also narrowly missed out on Defensive Contribution points in the last two weeks. The midfielder has averaged 9.33 defensive contributions per 90 minutes, midfielders need 12 to register the two additional points.
Palace’s own Mitchell was the highest scoring player in FPL this weekend.
Leeds’ Jayden Bogle (£4.5m) was the second-highest scoring with 14 points in Gameweek 3. The defender scored a goal, registered all three bonus points and was substituted ahead of the Brighton goal, meaning that he still achieved the four clean-sheet points.
Newcastle’s Harvey Barnes (£6.0m) and Luka Vuskovic (£5.0m) both registered 12-points in Gameweek 3. Vuskovic scored, registered the two Defensive Contribution points and two bonus points, meanwhile Barnes scored and registered an assist as well as two bonus points.
Brentford’s Vitaly Janelt (£5.0m) looks a good budget midfielder option. The midfielder registered 11-points in Gameweek 3 with a goal, two Defensive Contribution points as well as three bonus points. This builds on his goal and Defensive Contribution points in Gameweek 1.
Palace face Ipswich Town in Gameweek 4. Ipswich's top scoring FPL player is summer arrival Emersonn (£5.5m).
The hard-working forward's contributions at both end of the pitch have seen him collect 12 points thus far.
Over 300,000 managers currently have their Wildcards activated.
If you are playing your Wildcard this week, it is important to look at the form that teams have shown in the opening weeks of the season, as well as the fixture swings.
Coventry City, Newcastle, Palace and Chelsea all have the best run of fixtures over the next six gameweeks according to the Fixture Difficulty Rating (FDR), and so could be good investments for the coming weeks.
