The eighth match on a busy Saturday of Premier League action sees Brighton and Hove Albion take on Tottenham Hotspur, with kick-off at the Amex at 17:30 BST.

Mauricio Pochettino has made two changes to the side that lost to Liverpool in Gameweek 5, with Paulo Gazzaniga (£4.5m) and Son Heung-min (£8.3m) replacing the injured Michel Vorm (£4.9m) and the benched Harry Winks (£5.5m).

The club reported that Vorm sustained a knee injury in training on Friday.

That means Kieran Trippier (£6.0m), Toby Alderweireld (£5.9m), Danny Rose (£5.9m) and Lucas Moura (£7.4m) have been recalled to the Spurs line-up after missing out (for various reasons) on a start in the UEFA Champions League defeat to Inter in midweek.

Dele Alli (£9.0m) is fit enough for a place on the visitors’ bench, meanwhile.

Brighton’s starting XI is unchanged from the team began the 2-2 draw with Southampton on Monday night, with Pascal Gross (£6.8m) missing out with an ankle injury.

Florin Andone (£5.0m) is among the substitutes for the first time this season having built up his match fitness over the last fortnight.

Harry Kane (£12.4m), still owned by around one in four Fantasy Premier League managers, leads the line for the Lilywhites. The England striker is only averaging a chance every 44.8 minutes in away league matches this season.

Glenn Murray (£6.5m) had the best goal conversion rate of all Premier League strikers going into Gameweek 6, having scored with four of his nine shots.

No FPL midfielder has registered more assists than Anthony Knockaert (£5.5m) this season.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Montoya, Duffy, Dunk, Bong; Stephens, Bissouma, March, Propper, Knockaert; Murray

Spurs XI: Gazzaniga; Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Dier, Dembele; Eriksen, Lucas, Son; Kane

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

        Got rid for Mkhi. Waste of transfer. Ditched Mkhi this gw eventually.

        1. HNI
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Avoid being knee jerky and you will eventually get a good rank. Always plan to get a player with 6gw plan atleast unless INJURED. Benched ocassionally is fine as long as manager respects you as was in case of Beilva

      4. Jules Rimet
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        They do look a bit tired but you also have to give Brighton some credit that are making them look bad.

    16. Yoshioka
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Was Salah flat-chested in the end earlier?

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

          7 years, 2 months ago

        • JustPark

          • 10 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

        • Yoshioka
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

            • 10 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          He's doing very nicely 🙂

      7. Marvin.
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Chris Hughton is really underrated as a manager I think. He's done a really good job wherever he's been.

        1. Ógie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          This

          And he has been screwed over by lots of clubs he helped get into the PL in the past so it is very nice to see him well established with Brighton.

      8. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Not watching has Kane done anything since running at the penalty spot

      10. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Expected Trippier to be running away with the 3 baps. Doesn't look like he'll get them

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

                • 12 Years

          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago
