Sunday’s solitary fixture gets underway at 4pm as promoted pair Brighton and Hove Albion and Newcastle United square up at the Amex Stadium.

With many now filling their forward lines with premium frontman, we get the chance to run the rule over a trio of budget midfielders today.

The Seagulls’ Pascal Gross has played a part in all four of his side’s goals so far, serving up two goals and a pair of assists in his last two outings.

He was the second top transfer target for Gameweek 6, with over 381,000 transfers in.

For the Magpies, Matt Ritchie has bagged four assists in his previous three, while Christian Atsu’s goal and assist over his last two starts has also turned heads.

Indeed Ritchie and Atsu, along with team-mates Jamaal Lascelles and Chancel Mbemba have been subject to heavy investment over the last week, with a combined 783,000+ transfers in.

Newcastle number one Rob Elliot is the most owned player for Sunday’s clash, sitting in 23.7% of squads after conceding just once in his previous three. Yet he is the most benched player in the Gameweek, with over 808,000 naming him among their subs.

    Joselu doing everything but score

  10. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Would bet money that Joselu is top of the "goals imminent" table

    1. ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Which, as Pogba can tell you, means he's not gonna score until next season

    Alonso owners...
    Keeping or selling?

    1. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Gone.

      1. Pochecinno
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Surprised Wakey. Was that to fund another move? After the City game, Chelsea's fixtures are very strong.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      I don't know yet. Probably holding...

        Keeping for now.

          Gone......but more of a tactical switch, might get him back. I have played Chelsea defense wrong all year. Luis last week.....geeeez.

          Holding for 2 more weeks and will then decide

        4. tm245
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          If he had been pulled 3 minutes later we would all be celebrating the rest ahead of a busy week. Apparently he was on tilt and about to get a second YC.

          1. Hazz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Correct. Throwing a hissy fit. Once Conte sensed the tiniest bit of danger, he had Cahill begin warming up.

        Come on Knockaert collect some goals rather than cards, you soft flower!
