Two more Premier League matches follow on from Arsenal’s defeat to Bournemouth, both kicking off at 3pm BST.

Two of the Gameweek 33 doublers, Burnley and Brighton and Hove Albion, meet at Turf Moor.

Simultaneously, in west London, Brentford host Everton.

TEAM NEWS

Starting with the team news from in-demand Brighton, Fabian Hurzeler has made two changes from the Seagulls’ last outing in Gameweek 31.

Both are enforced as Lewis Dunk is suspended and James Milner has picked up an injury.

Olivier Boscagli and Yasin Ayari come into the side.

Diego Gomez and Yankuba Minteh keep their places on the flanks, which means more bench duty for Kaoru Mitoma.

Danny Welbeck leads the line again.

As for Burnley, Scott Parker responds to the defeat to Fulham by making four changes. He’s had his hand forced with two of them, as Hannibal Mejbri and Josh Laurent are absent through injury and suspension.

Lesley Ugochukwu, Marcus Edwards, Hjalmar Ekdal and Florentino Luis all start, while Kyle Walker and Lyle Foster are benched.

There are two alterations for Brentford for the visit of Everton.

Two players affected by injury in Gameweek 31, Dango Ouattara and Mikkel Damsgaard, are back in the side.

Ethan Pinnock moves down to substitute duty, while Jordan Henderson misses out entirely.

David Moyes has made only one change from Everton’s 3-0 win over Chelsea.

It comes at the back as Jarrad Branthwaite gets the nod over Michael Keane, who drops to the bench.

      Great player only 4.7% ownership

        It was him or Wilson I went Harry because Pool are pants

    Where is my Mitoma assist?

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years

      In Saipan.

    I trawled through countless posts on X analysing the best Brighton assets on WC32 and only remember seeing one poster saying Weiffer was the only BHA midfielder he was considering. Fair play to that random guy.

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      A midfielder playing full back. Yuck! He doesn’t deserve those points!

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        Fair point, such a left field pick. I knew he was nailed for DEFCON but his first goals for Brighton in one match is ridiculous.

    2. JBG
      • 7 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      Tbf to those people, it's very difficult to recommend a midfielder that's playing as RB, that's never/very rarely done exactly this.

    3. Moon Dog
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        First 2 goals of the season!

        He does average 13.8 DCs per game though. I probably should have considered him for that...

      Bowen, Thiago and KDH bringing in the points - glad I didn't follow the crowd and WC this week 😀

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        The WC was to set up the BB?

        1. Essan

          I'll play FH and have the same team as everyone else bar some defenders who'll get barely any points 😉 Plus I have a great team for the next GW - and my WC and BB still in hand 😀

      2. tutankamun

        Same here. 46 from 6 up to 2.7k

    5. jonnybhoy

      That brighton clean sheet was massive

      1. thegaffer82
        • 14 Years
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        Defo! 9pts Verb + 5pts Hecke and still got DGW to come. Gross 6pter not bad as well.

      2. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        First of 3 hopefully

        1. Qaiss
          • 10 Years
          5 days, 4 hours ago

          They were lucky to keep 1 today. Will likely concede in the next 2 games

      3. brianutd-why always we? 20
        • 14 Years

        19k deficit for me

    6. RealSocialDads
      • 9 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      Benching KDH for Dango hurts!

      1. The-Red-1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        I can't wait to ditch Dango for Sarr in 36

    7. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      KDH would've been in most WC teams had West Ham won the FA Cup game.

      Phew

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        Mavropanos, Bowen, Summerville, KDH, Garner, Tarkowski were my 6 picks before I had to remove them.

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 13 Years
          5 days, 4 hours ago

          Wow would've been so great

    8. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      The Welbeck blank doesn’t hurt too much, if he saves them all for the double I will be happy.

      Double Brighton defence off to a flyer!

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        Saves them for his one game in the DGW

    9. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      20 points from my three awful Brighton players!

    10. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      Just impossible to climb this season

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        5 days, 4 hours ago

        Yeah thought I was doing well with my WC but then saw everyone that didn’t wildcard has Bowen and Thiago lol

    11. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      Had I not opted for BB33 and instead FH33, intended to do Andersen, Enzo & DCL to Diouf(6), KDH(9), Bowen(14)

    12. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      Thiago haul softening the blow of no verbruggen

    13. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      3 players in the 3pm games. Verbruggen, KDH and Thiago. 🙂

    14. The-Red-1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 days, 4 hours ago

      Not on WC, and very happy so far with Bowen and Thiago points.

      But very nervous about next week.

      In 2 minds whether to FH to get 11 doublers that every WC manager will have (feels a bit pointless as I'm guaranteed to lose ground), or just BB with the team I have (just 5 doublers)

      Dubravka Roefs
      Hill Virgil Tarkowski Thiaw Gabriel
      Semenyo Palmer Bruno Dango Anderson
      Haaland Thiago Bowen

      I'm 30 points behind rivals who have used WC and will BB. So I guess I'm goosed!
