Key takeways from Watford vs Spurs
- WAT plays NEW (a) & NOR (h) in next 2; huge games for PL survival – Doubling up pn King & Dennis could be a great punt
- 5 CS in the last 8 since Conte’s arrival – Cheap defensive assets in Dier (4.6), Sanchez (4.5), Davies (4.5) & Royal (4.9)
Word of Caution
- Need to keep an eye on Dennis’s situation. He was subbed at HT. – More importantly, his equation with Watford w.r.t AFCON participation needs more clarity
- Spurs play ARS (h), CHE (a), SOU (h), WOL(h) & MCI (a) in next 5. Clean sheets might be hard to come by – 7th return by Son in last 6 (4G / 3A)

Key takeaways from Crystal Palace vs West Ham
- Olise with 2G / 3A in 311 mins played
- Edouard with 2G / 4A in last 4; seems to have gained Viera’s backing as a regular starter
- With Benrahma off for AFCON, Lanzini (being on pens) seems to be a potential cheap MF option (5.8m) – Has started 5 of the last 6 games – Bowen with the 12th assist of the seaon (albeit a lucky one) – WHU plays NOR(h), LEE(h), WAT(h) & NEW (h) in the 4 out of their next 6 games
Word of Caution:
- Gallagher still recovering from Covid – Edouard / Gallagher only 2 assets to choose from w.r.t FPL
- Clean Sheets are hard to come by for WHU; only 4 so far – Might not have a DGW in GW22
