#2 Michail Antonio vs Crystal Palace (H)

It is not often that I mention non-premium assets in my captaincy articles, let alone them being so high up, but Antonio’s stats and performances have been as good as anyone in the league – the potential he has if he stays fit is right up there with the best.

This week, he has a great fixture to go with it. Antonio is in the form of his life and has 3 goals and 3 FPL assists to his name already. A London Derby should keep the adrenaline going against a Palace side that has looked far from solid defensively.

Although one thing that might be worth noting is that Crystal Palace have only conceded 1 big chance in their 2 games so far.

Antonio may not get as many chances as he was gifted by Newcastle or the 10-men of Leicester, but the momentum this man has and the form he is in make it really hard to bet against him.
