Both these men found the scoresheet as their respective sides locked horns at Selhurst Park in Gameweek 16. Crystal Palace's Wilfried Zaha (£7.4m) opening the scoring, before Leicester's Harvey Barnes (£6.7m) levelled during the second half with the match finishing 1-1. Zaha accrued seven FPL points from the fixture, with Barnes acquiring eight.

Crystal Palace host Sheffield Utd in Gameweek 17 who currently sit bottom of the Premier League on just two points. Leicester travel to Newcastle who are coming off the back of a 0-0 draw at home to Liverpool. Both fixture are enticing for anyone looking to pick up either Zaha or Barnes. The Leicester midfielder is the cheaper option, however Zaha against a side who already look resigned to the Championship next season edges it for us, with the Palace star having already scored eight league goals this season compared to Barnes' five.

Verdict: Wilfried Zaha
