Glenn Murray (£6.4m) has been named on Brighton’s bench for their opening Double Gameweek 34 fixture.

He was captained by just over 100,000 Fantasy managers this week given that the Seagulls have two fixtures to play.

However, Chris Hughton has preferred to leave the veteran striker among the substitutes, selecting Florin Andone (£5.0m) to lead the line instead.

Anthony Knockaert (£5.2m) and Jurgen Locadia (£5.3m) are the two options to flank the Romanian international.

All eyes will be on Shane Duffy (£4.8m) now that Son Heung-min (£8.8m) managed just an assist against Huddersfield.

The centre-back was the second-most captained player inside the top 10,000 managers for Double Gameweek 34 and he starts in Brighton’s back-line today.

Alongside Lewis Dunk (£4.4m), he is flanked by Bernardo (£4.2m) and Martin Montoya (£4.3m) in defence.

In central midfield, it’s Yves Bissouma (£4.6m), Davy Pröpper (£4.8m) and Dale Stephens (£4.3m).

Both of them currently yellow-flagged, there was no room in the matchday squad for Pascal Groß (£6.7m) or Solly March (£4.7m).

Bournemouth have named a strong first XI with Josh King (£6.6m), Callum Wilson (£6.6m), Ryan Fraser (£6.3m) and David Brooks (£5.1m) all in the starting XI.

Danny Ings (£5.4m) is back in the side for Southampton as they host Wolves today.

He missed the visit of Liverpool in Blank Gameweek 33 because he was ineligible to face his parent club.

With some Fantasy managers looking to the Saints for Double Gameweek 35 investment, they will be happy to see Nathan Redmond (£5.3m), James Ward-Prowse (£5.1m) and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg (£4.4m) in the starting line-up.

After recent tinkering, Nuno Espirito Santo has selected what appears to be his best XI.

Raúl Jiménez (£6.8m) is paired with Diogo Jota (£6.2m) up front, while Matt Doherty (£5.3m) plays on the right of midfield.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Montoya, Duffy, Dunk, Bernardo; Bissouma, Stephens, Pröpper; Knockaert, Andone, Locadia.

Bournemouth XI: Boruc; S Cook, Mepham, Aké; Fraser, Gosling, Lerma, Smith; Brooks, King; Wilson.

Burnley XI: Heaton; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor; Hendrick, Westwood, Cork, McNeil; Barnes, Wood.

Cardiff XI: Etheridge; Peltier, Morrison, Ecuele Manga, Bennett; Gunnarsson, Arter; Hoilett, Camarasa, Murphy; Zohore.

Fulham XI: Rico; Bryan, Le Marchand, Ream, Fosu-Mensah; Cairney, Anguissa, Chambers; Sessegnon, Mitrovic, Babel.

Everton XI: Pickford; Digne, Jagielka, Zouma, Coleman; Gueye, Gomes; Bernard, Sigurdsson, Richarlison; Calvert-Lewin.

Southampton XI: Gunn; Bednarek, Yoshida, Vestergaard; Valery, Ward-Prowse, Højbjerg, Bertrand; Sims, Redmond; Ings.

Wolves XI: Rui Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Boly; Doherty, Dendoncker, Rúben Neves, João Moutinho, Jonny; Jiménez, Diogo Jota.

    Duffy close

  11. Feloh

    if it ain't a goal, don't say player x close. It annoys the f out of me when own a player and they get close without scoring.

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      If someone says close when it is a goal, it will get confusing.

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Unfortunately your players do not score every shot it is statistically impossible

    Captaining a centre back is awful. Spend 60min waiting for them to concede, spend the next thirty waiting for them to concede while you can actually see the points they would lose.

    *shudders*

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      When its a centreback who has 7 attacking returns in his last 30 games u know he's always got a chance to score/assist

  13. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    every saying duffy close like he scored being close doesnt count for anything in fpl

  14. Samwise
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    duffy close

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 10 Years

    I will probably log off at 60 minutes if Brighton are on a clean sheet

    Can't stand the "X is on 3 baps let's celebrate" posts.

    1. Samwise
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

    3. Grounderz
      • 14 Years

      No one can stand you.

  16. Samwise
    • 7 Years

  17. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Why are Duffy captainers annoyed when he has another over 150 minutes of time to get something?

  18. sully29
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Cluffy dose.

  23. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    It's kind of more fun to captain someone who has almost no chance of scoring.
    That probably explains my rank this season 🙂

  24. Chucky
    • 12 Years

    1. Samwise
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Don't swear, its unbecoming
