The first of two Sunday fixtures gets underway at the Amex Stadium as Brighton entertain Southampton in the 1.30pm kick-off.

From a Fantasy perspective, Pascal Gross has been the standout attacking asset among these two sides this season.

Owned by over 16% of Fantasy Premier League managers after bagging two goals and four assists, the German has been involved in 80% of the Seagulls’ efforts in front of their own fans.

Yet it’s the visitors’ Manolo Gabbiadini who is the most captained from this match, with 7,150 managers handing him the armband on the back of his brace in Gameweek 8.

However, the Saints’ record on the road – two goals for and against in three – suggests that clean sheets may be the likeliest source of points for both sides.

The visitors are without Maya Yoshida today, with the Japan international dropping to the bench –
over 80,000 FPL managers drafted him in last week.

Of the two, it’s Chris Hughton’s men who have the most encouraging schedule for those looking to invest.

Brighton seek a a third clean sheet in five today and, with a trip to Swansea preceding visits from Stoke and Palace in the upcoming four Gameweeks, centre-halves Shane Duffy and Lewis Dunk could play their way into our plans.

    Guys, how come the minute's silences for Remembrance Sunday have been happening this weekend instead of next?

      Think it's just Leicesters tribute. They're away next week

        That makes sense, home clubs this week and then the home clubs next week. Cheers

      With Sakho back we looked stronger in defence so might get more in future games, most fans prefer his to Hen. But might be short term as i can see us going for a new 1st choice keeper in January.

        Why didn't Sakho start yesterday?

    vardy - needed his points but was hoping he'd blank.
    key sale in transfer plans.

    That's another bad week for me. I finished with 39 points and drop to 2nd from bottom. What's up with my team?
