Richarlison (£8.0m) has overcome the ankle injury sustained midweek to start for Everton in Gameweek 4.

The Brazilian was one of many players discussed by Carlo Ancelotti in his Friday press conference, and it would appear that he has passed the fitness test.

That means Richarlison is free to make a fourth successive start in Everton’s front three, joined there by Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.5m), now owned by 41.6% of Fantasy Premier League managers, and James Rodríguez (£7.7m).

The Colombian, now sat in 30.3% of teams, has blanked in two of his first three league matches for the Toffees, but his last Goodison Park outing produced a 12-point haul.

However, Everton’s midfield trio is somewhat patched up today with Allan (£5.5m) and André Gomes (£5.5m) both missing out to a groin injury and a knock respectively.

They are replaced by Tom Davies (£5.4m) and Gylfi Sigurdsson (£6.9m) while Abdoulaye Doucouré (£5.5m) makes his fourth successive Premier League start of the campaign.

Brighton arrive on Merseyside on the back of some positive displays, so Graham Potter has tempered his tinkering once again, making just one change to the side that lost to Manchester United.

Yves Bissouma (£4.5m) is back in midfield, while Leandro Trossard (£6.0m) and Neal Maupay (£6.5m) start in support of Aaron Connolly (£5.5m).

Meanwhile, popular full-back Tariq Lamptey (£4.6m), owned by 10%, retains his berth on the right-hand side of a midfield four.

Everton XI (4-3-3): Pickford; Digne, Mina, Keane, Coleman; Sigurdsson, T Davies, Doucouré; Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin, Rodríguez.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI (3-4-2-1): Ryan; Webster, Dunk, White; March, Alzate, Bissouma, Lamptey; Maupay, Trossard; Connolly.

        True, I refuse to own Vardy so I may never catch him!

          6 years, 1 month ago

          Kepa, Rudgier, Smalling? Hamez not Hojberg on the bench? Nothing to worry about

      Palace defender at 4.5 could be nice

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Have Mitchell who I think will keep playing for a bit more. Burnley or Southampton maybe? Or one of the Leeds boys?

    4. Rock n Grohl
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Burnley and Newcastle rotate really well

    5. Rock n Grohl

    Digne needs to leave because of Pickford. Got 1.5m in the bank.

    A) TAA

    Guaita (Nyland)
    Saiss - Lamptey - Digne (KWP, Ferguson)
    Zaha - Trossard - KDB - Bruno (Elneny)
    Wood - DCL - Jimi

    1. ZimZalabim

      1. have you seen cyan
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I had Son I did him to Trossard for this week, assuming Son was out for 4 weeks or something. Who were you thinking?

        1. ZimZalabim
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Kane or Son or Bale

          U have Time and Money to pick whoever u want

        Bruno counts!

    3. riot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'd do Wood to Kane, think he's an outstanding pick

    4. Rock n Grohl
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Pulisic, Son and one of Trent / Robo would be on my list with that team.

    5. have you seen cyan

  9. TyroneGAA

    Will Brewster start Sunday?

    1. riot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'd say it's quite likely

    2. Rock n Grohl
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Something mentioned yesterday about not being registered in time for this weekend?

      1. TyroneGAA
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Great thanks get nine points of the bench then

  10. riot

    6 years, 1 month ago

    Rich and Wilson to DCL and Maupay done, time to relax over int break. Brewster first on bench so I'll tank an injury

  11. Wicked Weapon
    6 years, 1 month ago

    So I played Soucek over Bissouma. Surely that goal was a one off event right ? I fully expect Bissou to string together a nice run of 2,2,3,2,3,2,2,2,2,3 pts till the end of season but then again Soucek isn't likely to do any better is he ?

    1. riot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Soucek significantly better option

    2. Vazza
      6 years, 1 month ago

      That was a natural decision. I would have done the same. Don’t be hard yourself

  12. Patio Kev

    Lampetey came off at HT with a tight hamstring according to Graham Potter (Source - Radio 5)

    Looks like it wasn’t tactical then.

  13. Under my Cucurella
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Was going to do Son>Jrod and got talked out of it and into getting Zaha instead... that's gone well so far

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      There’s certain teams you don’t consider attackers from. Palace are one of them.

      1. Under my Cucurella
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Every time I've not gone with my original decision and changed my mind due to advice on here this season it's gone badly

    2. have you seen cyan
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I dont know why I got Zaha, always the same thing everytime I own him. Does nothing for 5 weeks, finally gets a goal the week I sell him or he scores when I have him and it gets VAR'd.
      Why do I do this to myself 🙁

      1. Under my Cucurella
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I'm hoping over the nice run of fixtures he can pay off the decision somehow

  14. Vazza
    6 years, 1 month ago

    What are the chances that one of Son or Saiss don’t feature at all tomorrow ?

    A. 0%
    B. 25%
    C. 50%
    D. 75%
    E. 100%

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      75%

    2. Pep bites Kun

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      He was the reason I wildcarded after GW2.

  16. Bank$y

    Newcastle will go up to 5th today and suddenly everyone will reconsider Wilson. You heard it here first.

    1. riot

        6 years, 1 month ago

  18. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Does Dallas' position on the pitch today makes him an interesting choice?

  19. Salah’s Sonnet
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Of course it’s Sterling, end of season

  20. Zilla

  22. NULL-X-VOID
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Foden is making so many errors tbh

  23. have you seen cyan
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I have a really random question, say I wanted to make an app game and it was about the premier league. In that game, can I use the actual real player names and team names from the PL, without paying any royalities or breaching any copyrights?
    I think big games like pro evo and fifa have to pay to sue those real player names? But then websites like, and other fantasy apps, websites etc use the names and they obviously dont pay, so how does that work?
