A large number of Fantasy Premier League managers are turning to Marko Arnautovic (£7.0m) and West Ham to kick-start Gameweek 8.
The Austrian forward, named in the starting line-up for the second week in a row, sits in 17.6% of Fantasy squads for a Friday night trip to Brighton.
Arnautovic is the most popular player in tonight’s fixture, but colleague Lukasz Fabianski (£4.5m) is not far behind with 13.5% ownership.
None of their Hammers’ team-mates are even close though. The third-most fashionable West Ham player is Felipe Anderson (£6.8m), owned by 2.6%.
Such is Fantasy interest in Brighton that their most popular assets aren’t even involved tonight.
Dale Stephens (£4.4m) and Markus Suttner (£3.9m) are both in a little over 5% of Fantasy squads but neither of them are in the matchday squad.
Anthony Knockaert (£5.5m) has caught the eye in recent weeks but only 1.5% of Fantasy managers are in possession of him at time of writing.
Meanwhile, Glenn Murray (£6.5m) returns to the side after being rested for the Gameweek 7 trip to Manchester City.
BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION XI (4-4-1-1): Ryan; Bong, Dunk, Duffy, Bruno; Jahanbakhsh, Propper, Kayal, Knockaert; March; Murray
WEST HAM UNITED XI (4-3-3): Fabianski; Masuaku, Diop, Balbuena, Zabaleta; Noble, Obiang, Rice; Anderson, Arnautovic, Yarmolenko
