Brighton v Leeds team news: Raphinha returns as Duffy is benched

Brighton and Hove Albion take on Leeds United in the final Premier League match of the day, with two of the three most-owned Fantasy Premier League (FPL) assets on show back from injury and suspension – and the other one benched.

Kick-off at the Amex Stadium is at 17:30 GMT.

Robert Sanchez is back between the posts for the hosts after serving a one-game suspension in Gameweek 12, replacing Jason Steele.

Shane Duffy is a substitute for only the second time this season, however, with Joel Veltman recalled at the expense of the Irishman.

Neal Maupay for Adam Lallana is Graham Potter’s other alteration, while Enock Mwepu is back on the bench after recovering from a muscle injury.

Any notable Fantasy interest in Leeds players is restricted to Raphinha, who sits in around one in five FPL squads and in over 50% of the top 10,000 managers’ teams.

He and Rodrigo replace Joe Gelhardt and Mateusz Klich in Marcelo Bielsa’s starting XI, while Junior Firpo is in for Pascal Struijk at left-back.

GAMEWEEK 13 LINE-UPS

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Sanchez, Dunk, Webster, Veltman, Cucurella, Lamptey, Bissouma, Moder, Gross, Trossard, Maupay.

Subs: Steele, Mac Allister, Mwepu, Lallana, March, Duffy, Locadia, Richards, Sarmiento.

Leeds United XI: Meslier, Llorente, Cooper, Firpo, Dallas, Forshaw, Phillips, Harrison, James, Raphinha, Rodrigo.

Subs: Klaesson, Roberts, Struijk, Gelhardt, Cresswell, Klich, McCarron, Shackleton, Jenkins.

    What do you think will end up being the better option?

    A. Buy Alonso and play Foden
    B. Buy Son for Foden and play Broja/Livra?

    1. nolard
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      a

    2. mox81
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I prefer A, best too see how tomorrow goes re Foden

    3. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A

  2. stevehaigh84
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Foden - Jota free transfer?

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Probably

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Before this weeks deadline.

  3. Fish up a tree

    Guys thoughts on Raph to Bernardo before possible price rise?

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Not yet

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Unless priced out I don’t think it’s worth transferring in a player who is yet to play for the current GW

  4. Atimis
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Raph to Jota -4 or just keep Raph for the next 2 GWs?

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'd do it

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'd do it too

    3. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I took that punt and did it this week so I'd probably say yes, although Raphinha's fixtures are favourable.

      1. Atimis
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah just afraid that it can backfire

  5. tommo1989
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Livramento & Aubameyang to Alonso & Jesus for exact funds?

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Not yet.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Wait for it

  6. 1912 F.A Cup Winners

    Repost bottomed-

    Evening all!! Already have Jota, would you do Foden to Son???!!

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Not yet. Let's see how Spurs look first

  7. Fuddled FC
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Which is the best option now?

    a) James
    b) Alonso

    I could use the funds from the cheaper Alonso. Is he as nailed as James with Chilly out

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A for me

    2. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely A for me too

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      What they said

  8. DycheDycheBaby
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    GTG for GW14? Can only afford Jota if I sell Son (or take a hit).

    Sa
    TAA--James--Alonso--Cancelo
    Salah--Son--Raphinha
    Antonio--Wilson--Jimenez
    (Steer, ESR, Livramento, Sissoko)

    1. Fuddled FC
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Looks

      1. Fuddled FC
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Good to go

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Gtg but no Jota is a worry

  9. ZiadHisham
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Transfer in Cornet or Bowen?

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Cornet if you have Antonio.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Monitor today

  10. drughi
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Is kane or son a must ahead of brentford Norwich ?

    1. Fuddled FC
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No Spurs assets are a must at the moment

    2. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No. However, if we tall about potential...

  11. trinzoo
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Zaha or Saka to Jota??

    1. Fuddled FC
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Didn't Saka go off injured today?

  12. Saka Rice
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Jota a must?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Almost

    2. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No. It was only Southampton

  13. Corona is not good 4 U
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Was it stupid to start Saint-Maximin and bench White? In retrospect, yes, but was it a stupid mistake? Thank you!

    1. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      based on Newcastle's recent record at the Emirates, then possibly. yes.

    2. Viper
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Nah, the forward has the higher upside so not a terrible mistake or anything

  14. Netters2018
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Rudi or Alonso (already have james)

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Alonso

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Same conundrum. Giving it a look later

  15. The FPL Units
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Antonio and Livra to Alonso and 6.8 fwd wood/benteke for free?

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      To play 5 atb with taa James Cancelo regi Alonso

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Could work. Not for me since I feel safer with Antonio and definitely want him for GW16 and 18

  16. Riverside Red
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Chilwell to Walker rather than another Chelsea defender seems more logical to me. Any thoughts on this move.?

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Quite like it as an under the radar move. Everyone owns Cancelo and Man City’s upcoming defensive fixture run is great. Less attacking threat than Alonso but good bps stats recently.

    2. Thomas Jerome Newton
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Just as good defensively but misses out on the frequency of attacking returns.
      Decent shout though.

  17. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Can't wait to get shot of Tierney (for Alonso). Ended up being a shocker of a transfer!! 🙁

  18. theoldgit
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Has anyone worked out what GW's the World Cup play offs are and what players might be unavailable? Ronaldo for example.

  19. CRO KLOPP
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    1 FT ,0.8 itb

    Ramsdale
    TAA James Cancelo Laporte
    Salah Son Raphina
    Antonio Jimenez Wilson
    (4.0 Mbeumo Livra Luiz)

    A) Laporte to Alonso
    B) Mbeumo and Laporte to Jota and Johnson (-4)
    C) something else

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Wait for tonight. I'd do the Jota move but will consider ditching one of Wilson or Jimmy to fund it instead of Laporte. You need reliable subs from now on imo

      1. CRO KLOPP
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Yes,I will wait one day,but Laporte doesnt look like reliable also with Stones in squad

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Fwiw I did Laporte to James before deadline, but also managed to buy Jota. However in your case Johnson is not so reliable (I might be wrong), and a good chunk of your money is stuck on Jimmy and Wilson, who are transfers in waiting. If only you can wait a week or two to downgrade one of them for fund.

          1. CRO KLOPP
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            Yes,I could even save ft this week,cheers

    2. DycheDycheBaby

      A

  20. Viper
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Evening all!

    Which moves looks better?

    A. Saka & Jimenez - > Jota & Benteke (-4). Bench Mbeumo (tot)

    B. Save FT. Start Mbeumo. Do the above move for free next gameweek

    1. CRO KLOPP
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I like A but Jimenez can punish you

      Ta peeps

  22. Warby84
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    New look squad;

    Ramsdale
    Trent James Cancelo
    Gallagher Smith-Rowe Salah Son Jota
    Vardy Toney

    Dennis Williams Duffy

    Took a -4 to get Jota (Chilwell/Biss to Williams/Jota)

    Will upgrade 4th defender soon, but not a priority

    Thoughts?

  23. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Early thoughts on Son,Christensen, and Livramento to James Alonso and Jota -4??

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Great moves but losing Son might haunt you

    2. CRO KLOPP
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Good moves,two upgrades and Jota can cover Son's points

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Don’t do it tonight, assess after games tomorrow

    4. Chris_White
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Go ahead

    5. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights

      After games, sure.

  24. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Just did Sarr to Jota. That's the end of his good form.

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Noooo

  25. Fuddled FC
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Another rise for James is going to be close

    If he rises I'll be locked out of Dias > James but I'd really like to wait until tomorrow's games are over

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I hate being priced out. I'd gamble it

      1. Fuddled FC
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I think it'll just mean I'd have to go Dias > James instead

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Yep

        2. Fuddled FC
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Dias > Alonso instead

          1. NABIL - FPL otai
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            James is s must for me. Alonso, not so sure

    2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Wait. If he rise get Alonso instead.

    3. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Do it tonight

    4. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Do it tomorrow

  26. putana
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    anyone else in same position of not wanting foden to play so white comes in?

  27. Soto Ayam
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Is it likely that Chilwell's price will be frozen now?

    1. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No, that only happens when a red flag is removed straight to no flag.

      1. Soto Ayam
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers.

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No, but won’t fall much. Lukaku only fell 0.2m despite going from 3.1m owners to 0.8m. DCL only fell by 0.2m and is at his 8.0m starting price despite having 2/3 fewer owners than in GW1…

      1. Soto Ayam
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks. Not really sure who to bring for him. Hoping I can avoid another price drop and save ft this week.

  28. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    I brought Guaita in as differential pick but would you use free transfer to switch to Ramsdale? Or stick with Guaita?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Can't wait to sell him after this GW

    2. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Have Guaita too and thinking the same move, will keep Guaita for Leeds while Ramsdale has United and switch after that I think

  29. MagicMessi
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Lads please choose one free transfer
    Foster*
    Chilwel *. Trent Cancelo James livra
    ESR *. Salah Jota Gallager Cornet
    Wilson Kane Benteke
    0.9 itb

    A). Foster to Degea
    B). ESR to Bowen
    C). Chilwell to Rudiger now before price change

    ???? Thanks

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Who’s the other keeper?

      Would do the Chilwell move soon if you can - whatever you end up choosing. I think you have plenty of depth to do Alonso over Rudi too.

      1. MagicMessi
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Hein 4.0 not playing
        I just select Rudiger bcuz of potential rise ..but really can play 3 in the back and also livra good fixture so dont know really confused

        1. RogDog_jimmy
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Hmm. Tough one.
          Think Chillwell out is first priority.
          Foster at least will play and not lose price.

          1. MagicMessi
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            Agreed

          2. MagicMessi
            • 11 Years
