The second of four Premier League matches to take place on Sunday sees Brighton and Hove Albion make the long trip north to face Newcastle United.

Kick-off at St James’ Park is at 14:00 BST.

From a Fantasy perspective, it’s probably fair to say that, in general, there is less riding on this game than in the other three fixtures today.

There is nevertheless still plenty of interest in the likes of Allan Saint-Maximin (£5.5m), Callum Wilson (£6.5m) and Mathew Ryan (£4.5m), all three of whom have double-digit ownerships in Fantasy Premier League.

That trio of players starts this afternoon, with there being only one change to the starting XIs from Gameweek 1 across the two teams combined.

Steve Bruce has unsurprisingly made no alterations to his line-up following the opening-day win over West Ham United.

That means that Ryan Fraser (£6.0m), Miguel Almiron (£6.0m) and Matt Ritchie (£5.0m) have to be content with a place among the substitutes.

Graham Potter’s only change sees Aaron Connolly (£5.5m) come in for Adam Lallana (£6.4m), with the latter having limped out of the defeat to Chelsea last Monday.

Lallana is fit enough for a place on the bench, however.

Ben White (£4.5m) has also recovered from injury and keeps his place in the back three.

There were no goals in either meeting between the two clubs last season.

Indeed, not one of the last six fixtures between Newcastle and Brighton has seen more than two goals scored.


Newcastle United XI: Darlow, Manquillo, Fernandez, Lascelles, Lewis, Hayden, Shelvey, Hendrick, Saint-Maximin, Carroll, Wilson.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Ryan, White, Dunk, Webster, Lamptey, Bissouma, Alzate, March, Trossard, Maupay, Connolly.

      No, they can adjust - hoping Son goes back up to 3 as he played full 90 and a midfielder

  26. TheDragon

    This is the ultimate trap to captain Son next week isn’t it...

    1. Bobby Digital
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It's between City mid, Son or Werner for me..

    2. Alexis Nonsense
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Son is a couple of 2 pointers next yes

  27. Brosstan
    6 years, 1 month ago

    So Brighton have bought VAR for this round. Non penalty given and then they didnt bother putting the line at Trossard's toe so no offside given. Two wrong goal

  28. T.Henry14
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Tierney? Keep or sell? Who instead? Doherty, Castagne, Coleman?

  29. Bobby Digital
    6 years, 1 month ago
