With no midweek fixtures scheduled, Eze is guaranteed to finish as the top performer of Gameweek 35 thanks to his brace at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.

The England international scored two relatively simple finishes as the Eagles outclassed Spurs in North London.

For Oliver Glasner, it was the perfect preparation for next weekend’s FA Cup final against Manchester City.

And this date with destiny at Wembley is a huge point of interest in the world of Dream Team as it means Palace will be among the select group of four teams with two fixtures to fulfil in Gameweek 36.
