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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Go away Gross

    1. VS10_
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      He went away from my team before he started producing 🙂

    2. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Most over-achiving player. Annoying 🙁

    After Chelsea, is DDG essential? One of the highest points scorers so far in the whole game. I'm getting him in for Fabianksi.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Just got him in on a WC. My WC has been terrible thus far, but not DDG. He's a great pick. May end up doubling-up with him and Jones.

      Season keeper for me.

      1. El Lobito 10
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah I've got Jones so a double up is perfect.

        In draft a rival has been killing it by having Valencia-DDG double up.

  21. Viper

    8 years, 4 months ago

    I'd be having such a good week if I hadn't taken a hit to do

    Alonso, Mhki & Lukaku - > Otamendi, Salah & Aguero 🙁

  22. Freddo
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Hemed to come on for the winner.

  23. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    I have Dunk and Cedric in the game. Typical that these two teams both have their scoring boots on.

  24. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Forster shouldve done better tbh, it was at his near post, and with his frame, it shouldnt have gone in.

    With some snazzy inspect element skills, I managed to organise my team scout picks style 😎

      Why?

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        because I'm a lonely guy and I have too much free time

  26. Fred54

    Chupo-Moting > Gross has been on the back burner for so long the bloody kitchen has burnt down.

    1. Over Midwicket
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I have both. Pretty happy considering I got them at 5.4/5.5. All they need is an assist every other game and I'm happy

    2. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      But look a couple of games down the road, Brighton have terrible fixtures, while Stoke have great fixtures.

      I wouldn't be looking to bring Gross in now...that ship has sailed

  27. Over Midwicket
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Groß almost another assist

  28. Viper
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Almost another Gross assist..

  29. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Groß cross almost converted by Murray again. Groß assist no.2 incoming

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Pleaaaaseeeee

    2. VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years

      Please

  30. Rainer

    If Murray isn't on the pitch will Gross be on pens?

    1. The Naked Kun
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Bit late replying, but it'll be Hemed.. if he isn't on the pitch either then I don't know.. poßibly Groß, pössibly Pröpper.
