The Scout is tipping five players to produce big points in Gameweek 2 of 2021/22 Fantasy Premier League.
Wilfried Zaha (CRY) £7.0m
The winger was Crystal Palace’s standout performer under their new manager Patrick Vieira during pre-season.
Zaha scored a team-leading four goals across their five friendlies, including two converted penalties.
He is expected to retain spot-kick duties for Palace's home match against Brentford, with their first-choice taker Luka Milivojevic (£5.5m) unavailable due to personal reasons.
Although Brentford started the season with a 2-0 home win over Arsenal, they still allowed their visitors plenty of scoring opportunities.
The Bees conceded 13 shots inside the box and 22 shots overall, both league-leading totals.
Thomas Frank’s side were particularly vulnerable down their right flank.
Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney (£5.0m) created six chances in Gameweek 1, more than any other player in Fantasy.
Zaha looks well-placed to exploit that weakness.
The Ivory Coast international partnered Jean-Philippe Mateta (£5.5m) up front in a 4-4-2 formation at Chelsea on the opening weekend.

But Palace are expected to revert to the 4-3-3 system they used over the summer, allowing Zaha to occupy a role on the left of a front three against Brentford.
The Bees' poor away form in last season’s Championship further boosts Zaha’s prospects.
Brentford managed a mere seven clean sheets across their 23 road trips.
Zaha can take advantage of those frailties and inspire the Eagles in their first home match under Vieira.
