The eighth match on a busy Saturday of Premier League action sees Brighton and Hove Albion take on Tottenham Hotspur, with kick-off at the Amex at 17:30 BST.

Mauricio Pochettino has made two changes to the side that lost to Liverpool in Gameweek 5, with Paulo Gazzaniga (£4.5m) and Son Heung-min (£8.3m) replacing the injured Michel Vorm (£4.9m) and the benched Harry Winks (£5.5m).

The club reported that Vorm sustained a knee injury in training on Friday.

That means Kieran Trippier (£6.0m), Toby Alderweireld (£5.9m), Danny Rose (£5.9m) and Lucas Moura (£7.4m) have been recalled to the Spurs line-up after missing out (for various reasons) on a start in the UEFA Champions League defeat to Inter in midweek.

Dele Alli (£9.0m) is fit enough for a place on the visitors’ bench, meanwhile.

Brighton’s starting XI is unchanged from the team began the 2-2 draw with Southampton on Monday night, with Pascal Gross (£6.8m) missing out with an ankle injury.

Florin Andone (£5.0m) is among the substitutes for the first time this season having built up his match fitness over the last fortnight.

Harry Kane (£12.4m), still owned by around one in four Fantasy Premier League managers, leads the line for the Lilywhites. The England striker is only averaging a chance every 44.8 minutes in away league matches this season.

Glenn Murray (£6.5m) had the best goal conversion rate of all Premier League strikers going into Gameweek 6, having scored with four of his nine shots.

No FPL midfielder has registered more assists than Anthony Knockaert (£5.5m) this season.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Montoya, Duffy, Dunk, Bong; Stephens, Bissouma, March, Propper, Knockaert; Murray

Spurs XI: Gazzaniga; Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Dier, Dembele; Eriksen, Lucas, Son; Kane

      1. Meinhoff
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Best penalty taker in the world probably

        1. DMP
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          No he is not. Jimenez only missed one peno all is carrer. And it was on Wolves.

  6. Hooky
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    How much do you think Man Utd would get for Sanchez if they sold him? £20m?

    1. The Mastermind
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I’d pay 20M to get rid of him.

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Depends on how many pints the buyer had. At least 10 for 20m.

    3. HamezMace
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Not if they sold him to China. £250m

      1. Hooky
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        He's no Odion Ighalo

        1. Mic
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          How dare you. He is known as God to me.

    4. Pinturicchio10
        7 years, 2 months ago

        He'd be boss if the manager wasn't such a cretin.

    5. Sponge-worthy
      • 13 Years

      Did Kane just snub Lamela?

      1. Hakchak
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

    10. FPL ZB
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years

      Looks like one of those weeks where the general average will be up there with the ffs averages

        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Hoped for 60. On 54 with possibly 6 BP and Alonso & Pedro still to play. Zilch on the bench. Anything over 60 will do me.

      5. caldracula
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        60 seems a bit high or is this accurate?

    14. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Come on Harry try and live up to that hefty price tag.
