Gameweek 6 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues on Sunday with Brighton and Hove Albion v Leicester City at the Amex Stadium.

The two sides arrive in contrasting form, with the Seagulls placed fourth after taking 10 points from their opening five matches. Leicester, meanwhile, have suffered four successive defeats and remain at the foot of the table after Thursday’s 1-0 loss to Manchester United.

Kick-off is at 14:00 BST.

Graham Potter makes one change from the side that lost 2-1 to Fulham in Gameweek 5, as Danny Welbeck comes in for Pervis Estupinan, who drops to the bench.

He sits alongside Billy Gilmour, who joined from Chelsea earlier this week.

    I had Mac Allister for a good part of last season. Why couldn't he pull of this stuff then?

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      He didn't want to

  2. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    How many games left for Brendan? LEI could go down at this rate ...

    1. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      0. Sacked in the morning

  3. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Bye Bye Rodgers!

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Time to go after that performance, but the keeper really is ‘tea lady’ standard!

  4. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Can’t see Rodgers lasting much longer now. Leicester really are a car crash at the moment.

  5. el polako
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Going against template just doesn't pay off.

    Thank you Graham Potter for my 2 minutes of Estupinan and his 1 pointer.

    Feck this game man.

    1. GoonerSteve
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Loads of 1pters this week. Most of my team!

    2. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      It can and does.

      It’s just harder to pick the right player against the template considering there are so many players to chose from.

      I went with Collins. 2, 7, 9

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Same score as TAA, Robbo, James!

    4. yousunkmybattleship
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Everyone got nothing this week so meh

    5. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Really? This was the ideal week for non template, zero-Liverpool teams, my team scored 64; still have Martinelli and Jesus to play. Huge green arrow!

  6. WATERMELONS
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Salah for MacAllister anyone?

    1. C-Dawgg
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Trossard for me

    2. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Looool

    3. Hits from the Bong
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Son plays Leicester next

      1. _Ninja_
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        City

        1. Hits from the Bong
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          Next next

      2. Fish up a tree
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Bailey first!

    4. yousunkmybattleship
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Nah Salah to Bailey

  7. sunzip14
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Grand Total of massive 5 points from Sanchez, TAA, Cancelo, and James. Trippier and Neco laughing from the bench 😀

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Consistency is key 🙂

    2. One for All
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Lol should of started Trippier instead of James. Chelsea leak too many goals atm.

  8. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Salah > Mac Allister?

    1. Fish up a tree
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      No brainer

  9. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Lost 2 bonus from Trossard + Gross double because that late goal ((

  10. Wirtzle Gummidge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Ward you saucy minx.

  11. WhatWouldYourZlatanSay
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Mendy, Salah, Greenwood >
    1.Pope, Gundo, Darwin (-4)
    2. Pope, Sterling, Toney (-4)

    Would give me a lot more flexibility too for the next few GWs.

    Yay or nay?
    If yay, which?

    Cheers guys.

  12. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone else feel 1 assist for Gross is a bit disappointing when Brighton score 5? Thought he was going to be involved in everything

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      No you're the only person who feels that.

    2. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      He could've scored a few himself, I'm keeping. Might get in Trossard too.

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Yes, but points are points, and I’m grateful for anything I get this season.

    4. Sif
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      A bit like Leeds the points will be spread around. Just have to pick one, still value.

  13. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Groß to Macallister then?

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Yes just done it

    2. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      See no reason not to

    3. Kane Train
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      No way. Penalty & a free kick. Gross more active overall will be a better scorer

  14. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Wait - shouldn’t we have MacAllister if he’s on pens?

    1. sunzip14
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Also FK

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Kneejerk point chasing. Check his stats

  15. steven8991
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    thinking of doubling up gross and mac allister.

    2FT
    Perisic/Cucurella > Malacia/Patterson
    Bailey > Mac Allister

    Do it?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Just target Leicester

      1. sulldaddy
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        This may be the truth

    2. Deer-in-headlights
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Potential benching headache.

  16. Pukki Party
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Leicester can't win without Albrighton

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Albright on the right

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Schmeichel

  17. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Sold Toney, Rodrigo and brought in Mitrocvic, Groß this week.

    Sold Haaland on my WC for KdB two gameweeks ago.

    If you want some FPL advice, let me know 😆

    1. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      I basically did those moves.
      But the only difference is that you didn't captain TAA (c) this week, with Pope (vc)

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        I’m still trying to play seriously lol. I fall for the crap that comes out of Pep’s mouth, every time.

  18. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Veltman > MacAlister (-4)?

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Ones a defender?

      1. Sandy Ravage
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Is he?

        1. Sandy Ravage
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          *sarcasm
          Already have 3 BHA

  19. Dannyb
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Brightons next 3 fixtures look awesome as well.

  20. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Groß just gone up in price too so get an extra 0.1 selling value

  21. Winton
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Zaha or groß?
    (In the long term)

    1. Winton
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Or MacAllister

      1. nerd_is_the_werd
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        I am tempted to go with MacAlister, he's on penalties as well.

  22. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    I have exact cash to do Kulu to Sterling.

    Wanted to wait one more week to see Chelsea but those fixtures are just to good to avoid.

    He is bound to rise again this week.

    1. Kane Train
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Do it. Kulu probably sees more bench time for Richarlison now.

  23. Gordon Cole
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Already regretting buying MGW last night when I could have had Mac Allister. Rushed into it before I got priced out by Rodrigo supposedly dropping, damn you fplstatistics!

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Dw about it. Ive regretted every single move I have made this season. Even regret the moves I didn't make.

      1. Not again Shirley
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        I regret wasting my time onthis stupid game so that trumps both of your annoyances.

      2. Gordon Cole
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Haha! Tell me about it. Why do we do it to ourselves?

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Would actually be interesting if that website never actually existed, probably would be far fewer price changes

  24. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    New manager bounce, Leicester players interest me

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Smithies a shoo in

  25. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Antony time 😎

    Shiny new toy!

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Werner mk2

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        No way!

  26. Not again Shirley
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Not sure why I have Kulu tied up for 8.2 million when these 3 Brighton lads are like 3 million cheaper each. Sorry Kulu, time to go mate (even though you’ll probably brace at the Etihad at the weekend now!)

  27. Muzzy
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    which combination to choose?

    Mid
    A. Gros.
    B. Trossard
    C. Mac Allister

    Fw
    D. Toney
    E. Mitrovich
    F. Isak

    .

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      C Mac - on penalties and set pieces
      E Mitro

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      CD if chasing last week’s points

    3. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      B & E

    4. Kane Train
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      AE

  28. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Should I get Trossard & MacAlister (-24). Feel like they are essential now after that 1 game 🙂

    1. Fish up a tree
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Only for a -28

      1. thegaffer82
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        I could probably stretch it to a -28

        1. Fish up a tree
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 7 months ago

          Good lad!

    2. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Can’t you just get Trossard for -20 this week and get MaCallister for free next week??

  29. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Rodrigo to Trossard went nicely!!!

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      nice!

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks mate!!!

  30. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Painful. I was on wildcard and Mac Allister was the obvious choice of cheap Brighton midfielder.

    Damn!

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah. I looked at his touch heatmap and thought Trossard or Groß would be better - despite pens. But he was brilliant today.

      1. TomSaints
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        I think all were good picks. But needing to make up ground, he was a safe different pick
