Brighton and Wolves are without key attackers as they meet at the Amex Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Danny Welbeck (£5.5m) came into the weekend with a yellow flag for his knee injury and is absent from the matchday squad.

That is now two matches in a row the Brighton forward has missed out on a place in the starting XI; Neal Maupay (£6.1m) Aaron Connolly (£5.2m) and Leandro Trossard (£5.7m) comprising the front-three against Wolves.

Tariq Lamptey (£4.7m) remains sidelined for his hamstring injury, so Joël Veltman (£4.3m) features on the right-hand side again, Dan Burn (£4.3m) earning a third successive start on the left of defence.

They sit in front of Robert Sanchez (£4.4m) who features for the fifth match in a row since displacing Mat Ryan (£4.3m).

Daniel Podence (£5.5m) is the key absentee for Wolves, as well as Raúl Jiménez (£8.2m) of course, with Fabio Silva (£5.2m) coming into the side to lead the attack.

Nuno Espirito Santo has gone back to the 4-2-3-1 formation he experimented with recently, featuring an attacking-midfield trio of Pedro Neto (£6.0m), Vitinha (£4.8m) and Adama Traoré (£6.1m).

Max Kilman (£4.1m) is the man to suffer from Nuno’s downsizing of the defence, Rayan Aït-Nouri (£5.0m) and Nelson Semedo (£5.4m) operating either side of Romain Saïss (£5.1m) and Conor Coady (£4.9m).

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Sanchez; White, Dunk, Webster; Burn, March, Bissouma, Veltman; Trossard, Connolly; Maupay.

Wolves XI: Patrício; Aït-Nouri, Saïss, Coady, Semedo; Neves, Moutinho; Neto, Vitinha, A Traoré; F Silva.

    Mitchell is world class. LOVE that guy

      Nice top post!

    2. Futile Tinkering
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      It's amazing how their defense improved in the last two with him in.

    3. Third Eye Vision
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      The Mitchell points have taken me past my cup opponent. We have the same front 7, so it’s down to the defence.

      Hope he keeps his spot. Always nice when a player you keep hold of through price drops, starts getting you points again.

      Also my Michelle is a nice person. Love that girl

  2. Paqueta Rice

    Wasn’t someone posting on here earlier about a Podence haul today?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Didn't see. Yet this is first time he is useful to me, I get Dier from my bench!

    2. Keep Calm and Play On
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Yes yes there was

  3. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    62 with Salah, Mane and Stones left. Green?

    1. MoSalad
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      You can check it on LiveFPL

      1. JONALDINHO
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I don’t like checking it because I see my rank high when I know it will come down due to having less players less. Just like a general idea

        1. F_Ivanovic
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          So why even ask at all then? Just wait till the GW is over.

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Look at the earlier replies.

  4. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Always a nice feeling when your 3.9 priced def gets a cs.

    1. bialk
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      And may save your FH next week.

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Saving my fh but activated wildcard instead

        1. Rolls-Royce
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          What's your WC team looking like. Might activate mine depending on how the week goes.

  5. MoSalad
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Best Forward under £5.5m for a BGW 18 punt one week only?

    For some stupid reason I’m actually considering McGoldrick surely Sheff Utd due a goal.

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Brewster is cheaper.

      1. MoSalad
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        In & out for just GW18 so not bothered about saving £. McGoldrick more likely to start, I was going Tekkers just depends on his injury now.

    2. BenDavies
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Never ever consider a Sheffield United attacker

      1. MoSalad
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        For one week what’s the worst that could happen. Max differential points.

    3. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      I wouldn't go near anyone from Sheff Utd

      1. MoSalad
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I would prefer Benteke but depends on his injury, gutted Martinelli isn’t a forward.

    4. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      I've got McGoldrick and Wilson for my gw18 forwards ... there's always a chance that he gets something

      1. MoSalad
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        This is my thinking he plays, fits the price bracket and there’s a chance how ever small he could get some points he got a brace against UTD.

    5. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Fabio Silva?

      1. MoSalad
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I was thinking about him, just doesn’t always start that’s the only thing.

        1. Sun Jihai
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Yep - see how he does today. A good performance should earn him another start.

          1. MoSalad
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Agreed if he scores he’s going in.

  6. HD7
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Taylor and Wood in my starting 11 (Ouch)

    Its good I put Mitchell and Coufal first and second on the bench though (Sun)

  7. Party time
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Salah(C) what do we want?

    I say a hatty & 2 assists. Anything less & I won’t be satisfied

    1. HD7
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Didnt you captain Vardy:/

  8. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Do you think Mitchell will keep place ahead of PVA? Helpful if does as let’s me get 8 players out next week and save FH

    1. FootballDog
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Like to know this ^^^^^

    2. Kingtekkerz
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah as long as Palace wins (and looks good at the back) Mitchell will keep his place

    3. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      You want this stress every GW?

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Just want him for week 18 then gone anyway

    4. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Can Mitchell not play RB too?

    5. Jimbo74
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Don't see why Roy would drop him, what with Palace's defence seeing a big improvement. At 3.9, he's worth keeping, even if he doesn't play every game.

  9. Dont_Win_Friends_With_Salah…
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Is Podence injured, rested or dropped?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Guessing injured or rested. He got hacked near ankle/back of foot last game.

  10. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Mitchell = Golden boy 2021. What a beauty.

  11. goldensock
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    If I keep my ft next week and use free hit for double game week will I have two ft to use the following week?

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      NO

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        FT's are killed by a Free Hit and never carried over.

    2. FootballDog
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Nope, will lose them

      1. goldensock
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Even if you have two to use before you free hit?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 17 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          yes

        2. The Polymath
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Yes. You are being given UNLIMITED FREE TRANSFERS and you still want the 2 you were given from last week? It doesn't work that way. 😀

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Add a GW to my name.

  12. Egg noodle
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Safe to say that the rest of tonight's games don't really impact fpl as much?

    1. MoSalad
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Neto is in quite a few teams in my ML.

  13. Rolls-Royce
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Siass goal and clean sheet, please.

    1. SuperG
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      This. Brought him in this week

  14. Traction Engine Foot
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Kilman unlikely to come on?

    1. BenDavies
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      very unlikely

  15. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Reguilon, Wellbeck, Kilman, (Matip) ... 7 missing last week, 4 missing this week - need a change of luck this year already 🙂

    1. SuperG
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      The last three are always unlikely to play.

  16. Flair
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    C Palace (0.60) 2-0 (0.34) Sheffield Utd

    1. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      That Eze goal just summed up Sheffield United's season.

  17. Vazza
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Would you save your FH if you had this lot after making a few transfers (4pt hit) ahead of the BGW

    Dias Stones Wan-Bissaka
    Son Bruno
    Kane Watkins

    1. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Please help out guys

      1. SuperG
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        In general I’m against fh next week. But those seven (six if you count Wakins) have a very low score probability.

    2. Kane and Ablett
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      I’d save, there’s a lot of twists to come this season, blanks and doubles and you’ve got 7 of many peoples free hit components in there

  20. Vazza

    I’d be surprised if PVA doesn’t replace Mitchell in at least one of the next two games

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Nah. We don't think so. Maybe only when fixtures are thick and fast/dgw etc.

  21. diesel001
    • 9 Years

    Scout Picks smashing it so far.

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 14 Years

      Apart from no Mitchell 😉

    2. Flair
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Picks have been very decent lately

  22. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Need 20 points exact from Salah, Holding, Cancelo, and Mendy to win my cup tie

  23. Tsparkes10
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Salah, Lowton to Kdb, Dias (-4) for the dgw?

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      No

    2. George Agdgdgwngo
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Why take lowton out?

  24. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Best Podence replacement for 6.2 m?

    Needs to only play BGW 18.

    Neto? Saka? Someone else?

  25. Party time
    5 years, 6 months ago

    So Brewster played again today... Oof

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      I guarantee he won't play next week when I need him most

  26. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Who is more likely to play in GW18. Ampadu or Lewis. Need to burn a transfer. Planning to transfer in Mitchell.

  27. AllINeedIsCoffee
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    First free hit draft, can you please RMT? Thank you!

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Sure

    2. AllINeedIsCoffee
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Why can't I see the rest of my post.. Anyway!

      Leno (Macey)
      Dias - Saiss - Cancelo (Maguire)
      Fernandes - Rashford - Son - Siggy (Elneny)
      Wilson - DCL - Kane
      0.4mitb and can sell Maguire for a good million fund increase.

      Thank you! 🙂

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        City attackers are arguably the standout captaincy options
        I'd do Maguire to Mitchell and Son to Sterling or something like that maybe, not sold on Siggy either.

        1. AllINeedIsCoffee
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Forgot to mention I have Mitchell too, and I find Wolves clean sheet unlikely so probably playing Maguire or wan bissaka over Saiss but I'm considering City attack for sure but pep roulette..

  28. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    I can't accept that people are getting points from Mitchell.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Patience.

    2. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Come on, you can't begrudge them a little joy?

    3. BenDavies
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      this. it's a national disgrace

    4. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      This so bad, main rival getting him for Balbeuna

          Nice one, I won't get close to that this season as still at 450k. Haven't finished inside top 10k since 17/18!

    2. MoSalad
