Dan Burn (£4.2m) is on the bench as Brighton travel to Sheffield United in Blank Gameweek 33.

The budget defender played a full 90 minutes in Tuesday’s 0-0 draw with Chelsea, coming away with a fifth clean sheet of the campaign.

That was his first start since his Gameweek 28 injury and it looks as if Graham Potter is taking no chances with his fitness for this one, even with Ben White (£4.5m) suspended.

Joël Veltman (£4.4m) forms part of the back-three with Adam Webster (£4.3m) and Lewis Dunk (£4.9m), who has 31 points in his last five matches thanks to a goal, three clean sheets and five bonus.

Jakub Moder (£5.0m) and Pascal Groß (£5.8m) are in the wing-back roles tonight while Leandro Trossard (£5.7m) features alongside forwards Neal Maupay (£6.0m) and Danny Welbeck (£5.5m).

The Belgian has two double-figure hauls in his last five Premier League appearances while Sheffield United have conceded 13 goals in their last five.

Rhian Brewster (£4.3m) remains the most popular Sheffield United asset with 5.2% worldwide ownership and he makes his second successive start against Brighton, lining up alongside David McGoldrick (£5.2m).

Blank Gameweek 33 Line-ups

Sheffield United XI (3-5-2): Ramsdale; K Bryan, Egan, Baldock; Stevens, Fleck, Norwood, Osborn, Bogle; McGoldrick, Brewster.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI (3-4-1-2): R Sánchez; Webster, Dunk, Veltman; Moder, Lallana, Bissouma, Groß; Trossard; Maupay, Welbeck.

Blank Gameweek 33 so far…

Timo Werner (£9.2m) scored the only goal of Chelsea’s 1-0 win over West Ham, his first in the Premier League since Gameweek 24.

Ben Chilwell (£5.8m), who continues to keep Marcos Alonso (£5.7m) out of the side, got the assist in a closely-fought battle for the top four.

Chelsea got back to their clean-sheet securing ways as Edouard Mendy (£5.2m) and César Azpilicueta (£5.9m) returned to the starting XI, although the former lost one of his points from a stoppage-time yellow card for time wasting.

Jesse Lingard’s (£6.6m) run of reliable FPL delivery came to an end at the London Stadium, the scene of his first blank since Gameweek 23.

That means he has now gone two matches without an attacking return from open play since Aaron Cresswell (£5.7m) sustained a hamstring injury.

Bonus points

  • 3 – Ben Chilwell
  • 2 – Antonio Rüdiger
  • 1 – Thiago Silva

    1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

    veltman to do the trick

    1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Is he so poorly paid at Brighton that he has to subsidise his wages on Brighton pier?

  7. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years

    Has been a crap day with Trent Jota Salah Lingard and Mendy . Sheffield to score now to ruin my Veltman clean sheet. Absolute certainty.

    1. The Suspended One

    Looks like Kane is fit for tomorrow. Hopefully he can do the business and stay fit for the following weekend.

    1. not_astarte

    2. Bushwhacker

      Needs to go and play for a team that actually attacks.

    3. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Brewster repays price tag with .... a try ... eh, a conversion ... touchdown? What, a concussion ... oh, a goal you say????

  11. Bonus magnet
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Salah now on 2 BPs

    Was zero all along

    Interesting & not complaining

  12. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Too greedy to want 15 points from Dunk?

    1. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      You’re a greedy desperado ... but if you don’t ask you don’t get .... but I fear Brewster goal off the bench will put paid to that ..... he’s , ehhhhhh, due?

      1. Pep bites Kun
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Desperado .. been a long time since I heard that y'all

        'Due' is more about a mammal gestation period with a higher rate of accuracy rather than the likelihood of a player hitting the net within a 4 week timeframe.

    Of course Burn plays against Chelsea when his clean sheet is stuck on my bench. When i need him, benched against Sheff Utd. Come on Blades.

  14. hotine

      Not Pool's form, it's Mane/jota/firmino's form.

  18. djman102
    • 17 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    The template has 3 players I don't own: Salah, Rudiger, and Coady.

    Really need a Veltman haul here to make up the deficit.
