The biggest Gameweek of the season kicks off on a barmy Friday night on the south coast as Brighton host second-placed Manchester United.

Fantasy managers will be focused on the away side, despite the absence of their most popular asset, striker Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian misses out through injury as Jose Mourinho hands starting roles to Marcus Rashford and Antony Martial in his front three. Juan Mata also comes into a much-changed line-up as Alexis Sanchez is omitted from the squad.

Significantly, Paul Pogba is named on the teamsheet once again. United’s form player, the Frenchman has three goals and an assist from his last four starts and goes into tonight’s match as the fourth most signed play having been snapped up by 140,000+ managers ahead of the deadline.

Elsewhere for United, Chris Smalling could be a key figure against a Brighton defence that has proved vulnerable at set-plays. The Seagulls have conceded 20 goals, including 14 from corners – more than any other side. Smalling has three goals in his last seven starts and top scored in the previous Double Gameweek with 15 points.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Think I can consider this an “inauspicious” start to the GW... whole bunch of Brighton points benched (again), no cs for DDG and J-Linz not even a starter!

    Dunk ans Ryan on bench again ....aaarrrgghhh

    1. Alexis Nonsense
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Ryan has been a better choice than de Gea in 2018 😛

      1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Incredibly yes. And I think the only time I played him was BB week.

        And perservered with Dunk all season and managed to miss his CS’s...

      This. Gross too for me

  6. Gudjohnsen

    Guess Gross > Pogba for -4 was a poor move

    1. Fantastisk
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Lol

      1. white heart pain
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

      Risk of rotation even stronger now. No respect needs to be given at all, it's a friendly. Only beating records could be a factor.

      1. Alexis Nonsense
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I think Pep likes that kind of records

        Can see them go for it

  11. SB007

    Pep will play strong team don’t worry.

    Well done Jules!

  19. Louis Van Gaalstones
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    A team of players who are over thinking it, Martial, Rashford, Shaw, Fellaini all trying to prove a point and instead psyching themselves out

    1. Ziyech on the Bench
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sad

  22. shirtless

    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Had Gross all season until BGW35. Now find myself with Lingard! And rival has Jesus (TC) to my Kane(C) and BB. Getting a bit nervy...

  23. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    It's genuinely baffling how highly some people rate Paul Pogba.

    1. barracuda
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Couldn't lace Mo's shoes tbh

    2. Vinyl78LP
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      League 1 fodder like Fellaini and Matic next to him probably doesnt help.
