Fantasy focus switches to Jiménez as Brighton host Wolves

The Fantasy Premier League focus switches to Raúl Jiménez (£7.6m) in Sunday’s final match.

The Wolves forward was the most-sold player for Gameweek 16, losing 220,000+ owners ahead of today’s trip to Brighton.

That was despite recording seven attacking returns in his last eight Premier League outings.

Naturally, he starts once again for Nuno Espirito Santo’s men, flanked in the 3-4-3 system by Diogo Jota (£6.1m) and Adama Traoré (£5.2m).

Meanwhile, Aaron Connolly (£4.7m) is absent for Brighton today, having picked up a knock midweek.

“He just had a knock, a bit like a dead leg. He’s had a few games as well this game just came around too quickly for him.” – Graham Potter

Leandro Trossard (£5.8m) comes into the side, while Aaron Mooy (£4.8m) and Pascal Groß (£6.4m) are also in the starting line-up.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Burn, Webster, Dunk, Alzate; Pröpper, D Stephens; Trossard, Mooy, Groß; Maupay.

Wolves XI: Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Dendoncker; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; D Jota, Jiménez, Traoré.

        No it was Jota. So far wide, it was rather comical.

    With 2 FT & 1.1 ITB, Button > Hennessy is really all that’s on this week provided no midweek injuries right?

    Guaita
    TAA, Robbo, Chilwell, Lundstram
    Salah, KDB, Maddison, Pulisic, Alli
    Vardy
    (Button, Mousset, Connolly, Rico)

    Will work on getting a couple of Son, Rashford, Tammy or Kane in for Salah & Connolly/Mousset for GW18 then for a 4 point hit I think

      Yeah I think so I’m in a similar situation and have a similar plan. Thinking of Saiss to Cahill with 1ft and carrying the other.

        To avoid burning a FT, and also ensure I’ve a playing GK if Guaita gets rested for a game or two - budgets are almost irrelevant this year anyways and my TV is 106.0 so 0.3 doesn’t worry me tbh

            I don’t see it as being hugely likely, but more of a safety net that might yield 5-10 points somewhere along the line

            Midweek injuries and it’s cancelled though, but more of a last resort use of FT

        For GW17 with those fixtures, who makes way? For GW18 there’ll be 2 FT’s & 1.0 to work on adding a striker, but even then it’s a tricky call
