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.

        ESR and Galla failed to score... This would have been a great chance to gain some ranking.

      Scout the Spurs and Chelsea games tomorrow before making a decision, but as it stands Alonso the clear favourite for me.

    Mbeumo>Jota, Jimenez>King for a hit now or wait and do it for free?

    1. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years

      Wait. Consider the fixtures before you burn 4 points

  7. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years

    Something for Raph on the break here if the other players can pass it to him

  8. camarozz

    Madness to get rid of Foden with those fixtures coming up?

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

      Yes imo.

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

      I wouldn't have done it if he wasn't injured (possibly), more subject to rotation than Jota and no longer playing centrally

    3. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Wait & see him play. I'd like to see him central rather than glued to the wing

    4. Yank Revolution

      Sold for Jora, no regrets

  14. GreennRed

        Cheers TM. One less move to contemplate!

    Best defender up to 4.4? Need to upgrade my bench 1 by 1. Tavarez? White? Lamptey? Anyone else?

        Wolves good defence so far, never croosed my mind. Thanks

    Think iv spent too much on my defence without realising it.

    Now that I want Jota it's become obvious

    5.7 /6.1 /7.7 / 6.4 /Livra

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

      Same

    2. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Should be ok if you get a 4.5 forward and play 442

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Can you not get Jota in alongside the big 4? (TAA, Cancelo, James, Alonso)

      I had the same realisation that I was spending too much in defence last week, but I was using a back 5! I shifted Dias into Jota with 2FTs and now I'm happier with the balance.

      Those 4 should give a really good rate of points per million over the long-term. so although you've got a lot of money there, the returns they give you is worth it.

    4. Forgetmeknot
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Is that purchase price?

      I’m on taa 7.5, cancelo 6.1, James 6.1, reguillon 5, Livra (at 4)

      Got Jota in okay 2 weeks ago

      1. camarozz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Just got James in before deadline.had rest a while.

        Can do Raph➡️Jota with my ft this wk but also wanted Cornet at some stage.

  17. JariL
    • 9 Years

    4.4m fwd Locadia gets over 20 minutes

  18. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Mbuemo, Vardy to Jota, Jesus for -4?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years

      Can you wait a day?

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

        Yeah but it's tight

  19. Old Bull
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    As soon as I got Hwang in he managed 8pts over 4 weeks. Anyone getting rid of?

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

      This is the law of fpl

    2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years

      After Burnley. For one of the Watford boys.

    Leeds Smash & Grab ? - ( Raph )

  21. Bobby Digital
    • 6 Years

    Locadia 🙄

  22. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Need a random 1-1 with unknowns

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

      Are Leeds and Brighton defences highly owned?

  23. 824545201
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    A) Raph, Rudiger, Toney --> Jota, James, Davis (-4)

    B) Son, Livramento --> Jota, James

    A is a no-brainer right?

    1. tbos83
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Just B for me

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

      No. Wouldn't sell Rudiger. Wait and see Son tomorrow.

  24. g40steve

    Lamps off

  25. TorresMagic™

    3 - Lamptey (32)
    2 - Cucurella (30)
    1 - Veltman, Dunk (26)

    Lamptey subbed.

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

      Almost got Lampty.

      Went with Alonso

      Hopefully not a mistake.

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 3 Years

        Of course you did mate

        • Has Moderation Rights

        2 years, 4 months ago

        Did you really consider Lamptey?

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

          I was concerned about his injury record.

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

          I'd consider him too if he didn't play for Brighton

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

    F... me the passing from Leeds players have been dreadful this match.

  27. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Really low standard of passing in this game

  28. Fabreghastly
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Too many Leeds passes going to Brighton players. They don't have to work very hard to get the ball back

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Leeds have been utter garbage. With a striker Brighton would be three or four up.
