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.

    A) Omo to reguilion or b) hwang to asm or any forward under 6.9?

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

      Take in mind that Reguilon quoted after the last games that manager expects him to ‘arrive, arrive,’ in the box but ‘defend too’ Reguilon said ‘now he feels dead’ rotation risk but an attractive one at that. Monitor Spurs at Burnley tomorrow as Burnley actually have a functioning attack now. Do you have Toney? Rotates well with ASM for next 4 game weeks!

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Ta think reguilion appeals more

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

          Don’t rule out Dier. 0.6M cheaper. Generally well up the baps in clean sheets, set piece danger on corners and direct free kicks. No rotation. This is looking like my move.

          1. Stranger Mings
            • 3 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            Ok yeh Dier looks great value - I can afford up to 5.1

    Is it time to move Raph on on Leeds are rank?

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

      Two good GWs coming up. Hold for now.

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

      Leeds form is pretty poor and they look lost though

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

        Two home games and were rampant against Spurs for 60 mins. A point away to Brighton decent enough result. Have a think. I’m holding Raph fir two more GWs. Any other route to Jota for you?

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

      Keep next one or two. Then an easy switch to Bowen.

  4. Over Midwicket
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Chilwell -> Alonso

    Or

    Chilwell + Gray* -> Jota + Reguilon (-4)?

    1. Arteta
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I would closely follow both defenders tomorrow, then decide who convinced me and is worth buying.

  5. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Lamptey past the eye test today, I don't remember him doing any defending

    1. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Considering his injury record, got to be a rotation risk for the congested fixtures coming up though.

      No route to Jota?

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

    Ramsdale (Sánchez)
    Alexander-Arnold Cancelo James Reguilón (Livramento)
    Salah Son Jota Gallagher (Gray)
    Aubameyang Toney (Scarlett)

    1FT, 1.0 in the bank. It's a normal squad with 3 issues in the form of Aubameyang, Scarlett and Gray.

    How do I fix this mess? Switch to 5-4-1 or 4-5-1?

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

      Maybe Auba>Ronaldo in a few gameweeks and Son > someone

      1. Arteta
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        That could work out nicely but you have to understand how frustrated I am after 6, 2, -1, 2, 1 and he could easily blank at Old Trafford.

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

      The essentials I think are:

      TAA/James/Cancelo maybe Alonso

      Salah/Jota/ maybe Gallagher

  10. Danstoke82

    Which move? 1FT

    A) Livramento > Alonso
    B) ESR > Bernardo

    Thanks in advance.

      Can you do both mate??! I like both of those moves!!

      1. Danstoke82
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Sadly not at the moment, it’s one or the other until I shift Vardy > Antonio on a few weeks time

          Ah that’s a shame mate, I’d wait and see tomorrow and then decide, We will know more about Alonso then, I’m looking at those two same players to bring In too(see below)

          1. Danstoke82
            • 9 Years

            Problem is I’ll be priced out of Bilva tonight as he is going up so need to make a call on him tonight

    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Evening all!! Early thoughts, initial plan this week was Foden to Son(have 2.5 in the bank) but wondering if ESR to Bilva could be a better use of the funds and keep Foden aswell, any thoughts???!! I shall be doing Chillwell to Alonso too

    1. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      You not worried about Pep roulette squire?
      Take it you have Jota?

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah definitely worried about it mate, getting Silva in would mean I’d feel comfortable moving Foden on soon as I think Silva seems the most reliably nailed forward in that team, yeah have Jota too mate

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

    Does Jota outscore Jimenez by 4 points or more next GW?

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

      Possibly. Everton have been tosh. But they do have some key players close to a return.

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

      Everton tend to 'lift' in the Derby, despite their form.

  15. JollyGoodYellows
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Planning to take a -4 this week to do Chilwell + Havertz > Alonso + Jota. Is it worth doing the Jota move tonight before the price rise?

      • 6 Years

      ASM was playing left mid today with Joelinton and Wilson up top. Not very involved offensively. Or you could downgrade Antonio aa his fixtures look terrible and not doing much stats wise.

    1. RAMZES666

      Vardy or Son depending on their performance tomorrow

    10k rank with Vardy in the squad.

    Fear I may fall victim to a switch to Kane next GW.

    resisted so far.

    Salah cappo next week to resist the temptation?

    cant see any point investing in a 12k spursy striker unless he carries the armband.

    1. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah I agree. If you can't captain, not much point. I also think theres a slight outside chance Kane possibly gets a benching in one of the next three. He played 90 against Mura 2 days ago.. In the next 12 days, Spurs have to play 4 games and the game against Rennes is a must win for Spurs. So who knows.

      • 12 Years

      So your bench is useless and you are running 4-3-3 without a strong 4th defender and are weak in midfield.

      Is this intentional? If you are going to run without a bench you need to build to the formation properly. Have you got a plan?

      1. Ruudy Van
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        No plan at all

        Just had a quick look, I have exact funds to do foden & Christensen to Jota & alonso? Thoughts?

    2. EffPeeEll
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      probably jumped on kane too soon.

      he soaks up funds.

      christensen should have been chillwell, now probably alonso or rudiger.

      brownhill should be Jota .

      strikers have delivered effall up to now.

      lukaku could be decent

      1. Ruudy Van
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I’ve had Kane 4 weeks and 2 of those captain…. I can’t sell him now can I?!?

        To Lukaku?

        Kane & foden to Lukaku & Jota?

        I do need different moves and Lukaku could be that.

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

          wait on lukaku.

          Jota is essential.

          my team is templatey but gaining ground.

          it depends on how you want to go.
