Brighton and Hove Albion v Manchester City is the last of six Premier League matches being contested on Saturday.

Kick-off at the Amex is at 17:30 BST.

There are a couple of high-profile benchings on the south coast in the form of Shane Duffy (£4.4m) and Kevin De Bruyne (£12.0m) but no real shocks aside from that, with the other main players from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) perspective all involved from kick-off.

Solly March‘s (£5.3m) recall and Duffy’s demotion to the bench is the one change that Graham Potter has made from the side that drew at Norwich last weekend, so Yves Bissouma (£4.5m) once again has to content himself with a place among the substitutes.

Pep Guardiola’s two changes from the midweek Champions League win at Club Bruges sees Gabriel Jesus (£8.6m) and Ilkay Gundogan (£7.2m) come in for De Bruyne and Riyad Mahrez (£8.7m).

Raheem Sterling (£10.7m) misses out as a precaution.

All three of the Manchester City players who can boast a double-digit ownership, Ruben Dias (£6.2m), Joao Cancelo (£6.3m) and Jack Grealish (£7.9m), start this evening.

Cancelo is by some distance the most-owned City asset in the top 10k, with Phil Foden (£8.0m) a distance second:

      Great for Dias/Cancelo baps

    Selling Mahrez back to Son paying off so far I guess

  3. EL_FENOMENO
    5 years, 16 days ago

    Best Raph replacement:
    a) Mount
    b) Foden
    c) Gundo

    1. JBG
      5 years, 16 days ago

      A

    2. Thomas Magnum

      Not the biggest fan of any, but I think A ticks over the best (when he plays) but B & C have more explosive potential. All will get rotated a few bit, especially with the busy period starting soon but if I had to pick one I'd go C, not much in it though

    3. JONALDINHO
      5 years, 16 days ago

      B

      Dias

        Thanks guys. LRL How is your week going? I have no MC players, so sweating it a bit.

        1. Botman and Robben
          5 years, 16 days ago

          So-so. At 25pts with no City player either. May finally use my WC.

            Who does one get in midfield though? I just brought in Son, who knows how it will turn out. Other than Salah, the rest are poor.
            Will get in a MC def and wait and see I think.
            Happy I missed the Havertz train!

              Pep roulette makes choosing a MC mid such a headache.

    2. Thomas Magnum

    1. Bushwhacker

    2. Rainer
      5 years, 16 days ago

      Where you considering Mount before today? Won't be on pens too often.

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        5 years, 16 days ago

        Yes I did when Lukaku was out but did not want -4 ... and could not afford Havertz

    Is there a way to see comments on live chat stream?

  8. Paqueta Rice
    5 years, 16 days ago

    I’ve not seen the injury to Raph and Biesla just said he didn’t know the extent of the injury. Is he definitely going to miss the Norwich game?

    1. sirmorbach
      5 years, 16 days ago

      Can't be sure yet, but didn't look good

    2. Thomas Magnum
      5 years, 16 days ago

      Not definitely, and anyone who says he will/won't before any reports come out is purely speculating

      5 years, 16 days ago

      Foden wouldn't have celebrated like that if he didn't touch it at all so he must have got something on it

      1. Bushwhacker
        5 years, 16 days ago

        Sure he would.

  20. Uppercut Panda - A legend i…
    5 years, 16 days ago

    2. Rainer
