Double Gameweek 27 comes to a conclusion this evening as Brighton and Hove Albion entertain Crystal Palace and Southampton face Brentford.

Kick-off in both matches is at 19:30 GMT.

Virtually all of the Fantasy focus will be on Brighton in the M23 derby but the headline-grabbing team news comes from the visitors, who are without a recognised senior goalkeeper tonight.

Vicente Guaita has picked up a late injury so, with Sam Johnstone already sidelined, it’s 19-year-old youth product and debutant Joe Whitworth who will be between the posts at the Amex.

In Patrick Vieira’s two other changes, Cheick Doucoure returns from suspension to replace Luka Milivojevic in midfield and Odsonne Edouard starts up front in place of Jordan Ayew.

Brighton make two changes to the side that began the 2-2 draw at Leeds on Saturday, with Danny Welbeck and Levi Colwill coming in for the benched Adam Webster and Evan Ferguson.

In the other game, Southampton recall Mohamed Elyounoussi and Ibrahima Diallo at the expense of Romeo Lavia and Theo Walcott.

Brentford’s only change sees Mikkel Damsgaard drop to the bench and Kevin Schade given his first start since his January move.

    Not watching. Is the Brentford defence investable - even away from

    • 16 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Palace could be playing until this time next year v Brighton and wouldn't score.
    Southampton have been unlucky v Brentford - final ball their issue.

      Timing

  26. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years

    Any chance MacAllister gets a goal?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not anymore:(

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not from the bench

  27. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Out of interest, anyone know if March would have got bonus had his he been given his goal?

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Eh?

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Vs Leeds

        1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Ah.

      2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        First game disallowed goal

    2. Ejaaz11
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He would have got 3 bonus

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Would he? Because if it was given to March then Mitoma would have got the assist

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

          Wrong

    3. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Probably not

    4. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      2

    5. iCon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I think he would have got 3…or was at least on for 3 when he was temporarily awarded the goal

    6. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      think so

  28. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I’m going to jinx it.

    106 points and first century of the season. But still kind of dissapointing
