Murray starts against Cardiff as Duffy remains main focus

Glenn Murray (£6.4m) has returned to the starting line-up for Brighton.

The veteran forward was left on the bench for the 5-0 defeat Bournemouth on Saturday.

Also back in the side is Pascal Groß (£6.7m), making his first start since Gameweek 28.

After such a devastating result against the Cherries just a few days ago, it looks as if Chris Hughton has reverted to the 4-4-1-1 formation that brought more success for Brighton earlier in the campaign.

Solly March (£4.7m) is another returning face, stationed on the left of midfield, Alireza Jahanbakhsh (£6.7m) on the opposite flank.

Bruno (£4.4m) comes in at right-back to captain the side, while defensive pair Shane Duffy (£4.8m) and Lewis Dunk (£4.4m) keep their places in the side – as does goalkeeper Mat Ryan (£4.4m).

It is these options where the majority of Fantasy interest lies. 66,000 managers captained Duffy for Double Gameweek 34.

22.72% of those in the top 10,000 form part of that number.

Given that Cardiff have allowed more headed attempts and shots from set pieces in the last six matches, there is every chance that Duffy could nick some attacking returns.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Bernardo, Dunk, Duffy, Bruno; March, Pröpper, Stephens, Jahanbakhsh; Groß; Murray.

Cardiff XI: Etheridge; Peltier, Ecuele Manga, Morrison, Bennett; Ralls, Gunnarsson; Mendez-Laing, Camarasa, Hoilett; Niasse.

              Not quite LFC blitzed them at Anfield 3 nil. Spurs are up a mere 1 nil and have injury problems. A Spurs cleanie at the Etihad is not happening.

                What I think is not happening is a city clean sheet. I believe spurs will score 1 in a counter (with their current
                form son and lucas will cause them issues) and from there they will park the bus.

    On bench boost and main keeper for rest of season is Lloris, but it seems likely to at least pay back the -4 as a minimum

      Risk/Reward probably led them to it. The thinking was that he would definitely get one clean sheet, which would be the same as a striker with one goal. The clean sheet was more likely than any goal but its blown up in their faces as it turns out Brighton are trash

      Lucas was much better than you're making out. He was liverpool's player of the year one season. He took a while to settle in fairness but was far from a bad player.
