Romain Saïss (£4.9m) is the biggest Fantasy casualty from Sunday’s early kick-off between Wolves and Brighton.

The 6.5%-owned defender is one of five players to drop out of Nuno’s starting XI in Triple Gameweek 35.

Nelson Semedo (£5.2m), Leander Dendoncker (£4.6m), Owen Otasowie (£4.5m) and Adama Traoré (£6.0m) are the other players to find themselves benched after Wolves’ 1-1 draw at West Brom in Gameweek 34.

Ki-Jana Hoever (£4.4m) and Max Kilman (£3.9m) are the beneficiaries in defence, where the pair look set to play in a back four.

Joao Moutinho (£5.1m) returns in midfield after being sidelined for two games. Daniel Podence (£5.3m) and Morgan Gibbs-White (£4.9m) start in attacking midfield alongside Vitinha (£4.7m), with that trio operating behind Fabio Silva (£5.2m).

For the Seagulls, Joel Veltman (£4.4m) is absent from the matchday so squad so Alireza Jahanbakhsh (£5.4m) is drafted in by Graham Potter.

The attacking midfielder could be set to line out at right wing-back, though the shapeshifting Brighton boss may have some other tricks up his sleeve.

Adam Lallana (£6.2m) remains in the treatment room for Brighton, who beat Leeds 2-0 at home in their previous Premier League outing.

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI (4-2-3-1): Patricio; Ait-Nouri, Kilman, Coady, Hoever; Neves, Moutinho; Podence, Vitinha, Gibbs-White; F Silva.

Brighton & Hove Albion XI (3-4-3): Sanchez; White, Dunk, Webster; Burn, Bissouma, Gross, Jahanbakhsh; Trossard, Maupay; Welbeck.

      All 3 of mine starting today. 🙂

      V's Leicester, all three probably start on the bench 🙁

      Then all 3 back on for Pool game I reckon 🙂

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Sounds like a realistic scenario tbf

  11. OPTA FPL

    Bruno 2 goals today

  12. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno (C), Greenwood, Lindelof and Martinez in this one.
    Could be massive, could decide whether it’s a week from hell or heaven

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Bruno's irrelevant, given his EO. What matters is what your other two United players do.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        This is true, what is his EO actually?

        1. moment
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Ooh ok so small gains with captain, I’m very surprised it’s that low. Would have thought it would eclipse Kane EO the other week or at least match it considering TGW

      2. thegaffer82
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        He's not irrelevant if you haven't captained him though

        1. Ron_Swanson
          • 15 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Exactly

        2. justaguy9
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          And not irrelevant if u don't have him at all.

    2. justaguy9
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Rashford c Greenwood shaw here. Season defining game

    3. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Wish I'd have kept Martinez on my FH.

      I've had him consistently in my team since GW3 WC. Feel lost without him 🙁

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Him and Dallas my favourite players this season, I recall selling Martinez in the first blank - my first bad decision this season that was

    Nacho(TC) looking better now after seeing that Utd team sheet

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I think they'll play a pretty strong team all week to pressure Man City whilst possible.

      1. JONALDINHO
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Even if they do the players will be exhausted.

    2. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I think Leic losing yesterday probably made up Ole's mind to rest the big guys for the Leic game.

      Might work out well for Leic, but I still feel Utd's B team is stronger than Newcastle team... so no guarantees of a big Leic score

  14. DAZZ
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno (C) Greenwood Henderson Watkins. Ideally United 4-0 here

  15. Del Griffith
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno (C) Let's gooooooooo!!!

  16. It's Fergie Time
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Shaw, Bruno, Greenwood (c)....Let's go United!

  17. Drogo

    Dunk and Dallas on bench...

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

  22. Hits from the Bong

    Dunk! No!!!

  23. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Perfect for us Nacho(C). United look like they’ll fully rotate for the Leicester game and field their strongest team again against Liverpool

    1. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Looks like it

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Watch as Bruno is the only player to start all 3 🙂

  24. Chandler Bing
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    How many games does Dunk miss for this?

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      1. But it's next week which is when most people will actually need him!

      1. El Presidente
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Straight red 3 match ban

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Wasn’t violet conduct so only 1

        2. JIMMY TUGGINS
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Not violent conduct.

  25. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    So they're rotating vs LEI then... Nice!

  26. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    In an OR context, Martinez owners with Fernandes(c) have a dilemma. A Villa CS today is worth more (in an OR context) than a Fernandes goal.

  27. Bob_the_builder
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    So this means rotation against Leicester only as there's no way that United go understrength against Pool.

    1. MightyGar
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      It could all be a big old double bluff by OGS, saying he will rotate and then play his first team every game

      1. Bob_the_builder
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Well he generally doesn't like to rotate but surely the Europa final is the bigger priority over consolidating a near certain 2nd place finish in the league?

  28. Fudgy
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    WTF DUNK YOU IDIOT

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Hey mate

      1. Fudgy
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Hey 😀

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          How’s it going?

    2. Ejaaz11
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      FFS was a guaranteed 15 pointer.

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Season over?

  29. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Gunna be a tough watch I think for me this Utd game.

    I got rid of Watkins, Shaw & Martinez on my FH and brought in Maguire & Greenwood (kept Bruno).

    Hopefully it comes off!

  30. JJO
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    So Dunk on 5 points + bonus as maximum?

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Doubt he gets any bonus with a red card, can’t recall that ever happening before

    2. Ejaaz11
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      4 PTS no bonus

    3. dabber7
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Could even end up on 3 points if Wolves can score another ...
