Murray starts against Cardiff as Duffy remains main focus

Glenn Murray (£6.4m) has returned to the starting line-up for Brighton.

The veteran forward was left on the bench for the 5-0 defeat Bournemouth on Saturday.

Also back in the side is Pascal Groß (£6.7m), making his first start since Gameweek 28.

After such a devastating result against the Cherries just a few days ago, it looks as if Chris Hughton has reverted to the 4-4-1-1 formation that brought more success for Brighton earlier in the campaign.

Solly March (£4.7m) is another returning face, stationed on the left of midfield, Alireza Jahanbakhsh (£6.7m) on the opposite flank.

Bruno (£4.4m) comes in at right-back to captain the side, while defensive pair Shane Duffy (£4.8m) and Lewis Dunk (£4.4m) keep their places in the side – as does goalkeeper Mat Ryan (£4.4m).

It is these options where the majority of Fantasy interest lies. 66,000 managers captained Duffy for Double Gameweek 34.

22.72% of those in the top 10,000 form part of that number.

Given that Cardiff have allowed more headed attempts and shots from set pieces in the last six matches, there is every chance that Duffy could nick some attacking returns.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Bernardo, Dunk, Duffy, Bruno; March, Pröpper, Stephens, Jahanbakhsh; Groß; Murray.

Cardiff XI: Etheridge; Peltier, Ecuele Manga, Morrison, Bennett; Ralls, Gunnarsson; Mendez-Laing, Camarasa, Hoilett; Niasse.

    Well that’s it. Duffy (c) dream is over. Why did so many fall for the trap this week?

      Doubt it. Name me a popular and successful TC of a player who does not play for a Top 6 team?

      The graveyard of FPL is littered with players who have TC the likes of Andy Carroll.

    First of many tonight, I think, for both sides.

    Ryan and Duffy(c) here. 100% my fault and not blaming others because I'm not a child.

  21. BigBillyBass

    Brighton are abhorrent

  22. KLOPPTOMANIA
    • 14 Years

    Duffy goal inbound...

    1. Don Kloppeone
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 10 days ago

      Into his own net perhaps

  23. Valar(Keith)
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 10 days ago

    TAA could out score Duffy(c) + Ryan + Dunk the way things are going

    Happy I went with the 1 Brighton. WC 37 and TC next week it is 🙂

    Shite x 2 still = Shite.

    At least it was a quick kill rather than an 80 min torture

    I've had it with Brighton after this horror week. I hope they go down now and I never have to see them again in EPL and FPL.

    I would actually take 2 points from dunk and Duffy right now

    This week's maths lesson: 2 times 0 is still 0
