Two Premier League matches kick off at 14:00 BST today โ€“ Brighton and Hove Albion v Leicester City and West Ham United v Manchester United.

At Brighton, Graham Potter makes just one change as Adam Webster (ยฃ4.5m) is sidelined with a hamstring injury and is replaced by Solly March (ยฃ5.4m).

Pascal Gross (ยฃ6.0m) is continuing to self-isolate due to Covid-19 regulations, but Enock Mwepu (ยฃ5.9m) does return to the bench along with Tariq Lamptey (ยฃ4.4m).

As for Brendan Rodgersโ€™ Leicester City, Boubakary Soumare (ยฃ4.9m) makes his first Premier League start and comes in for Marc Albrighton (ยฃ5.4m), while Ricardo Pereira (ยฃ5.5m) replaces Timothy Castagne (ยฃ5.4m) at right-back.

Meanwhile, Michail Antonio (ยฃ7.9m) is suspended for West Ham United after being sent off against Southampton in Gameweek 4. As a result, either Jarrod Bowen (ยฃ6.3m) or Nikola Vlasic (ยฃ6.0m) will lead the line, with Said Benrahma (ยฃ6.4m) and Pablo Fornals (ยฃ6.0m) completing David Moyesโ€™ front four.

For Manchester United, Scott McTominay (ยฃ5.4m) starts alongside Fred (ยฃ5.0m) in a double pivot following groin surgery. That means Paul Pogba (ยฃ7.8m) could move back into a more advanced role on the left of Ole Gunnar Solskjaerโ€™s 4-2-3-1 formation.

Mason Greenwood (ยฃ7.7m) starts ahead of Jadon Sancho (ยฃ.9.1m) on the right, who drops to the bench along with Donny van de Beek (ยฃ5.8m) and Victor Lindelof (ยฃ4.9m), both of whom featured in Europe.

    Very nice goal. Is it weird that I'm happy about that even as a Sanchez owner? I feel like so many people have jammy Veltman and Duffy points coming in.

      Yup I was certainly hoping for that goal as a Sanchez owner. 85% EO for him but a 12 pointer for Duffy would have been about 4 points against along with other Brighton double ups.
