Duffy and Lamptey start but Maupay benched as Brighton face Newcastle

Brighton and Hove Albion face Newcastle United in the final Premier League match of the day.

Kick-off at the Amex is at 17:30 GMT.

The visitors go into this match bottom of the table, following a win for Norwich City at Brentford earlier this afternoon.

Albion, despite not winning any of their last five league matches, will go fifth with a victory over the managerless Magpies.

The Seagulls have an excellent recent record against Newcastle, however, having not lost to today’s opponents in their last eight meetings. The hosts have conceded only one goal in those eight fixtures, beating Steve Bruce’s former side 3-0 on two occasions in 2020/21.

Graeme Jones will take temporary charge of Newcastle for very probably the final time this evening, with Eddie Howe in the director’s box at the Amex ahead of his imminent appointment.

Jones makes three changes to the side that began the 3-0 defeat to Chelsea, with the benched Javier Manquillo, Ryan Fraser and Sean Longstaff replaced by Jonjo Shelvey, Jacob Murphy and Miguel Almiron.

Graham Potter makes only one change to the side that started the Gameweek 11 draw at Anfield. Tariq Lamptey gets his first league start of the campaign, replacing Jakub Moder, but there is again no place in the starting XI for Neal Maupay.

Shane Duffy keeps his place at centre-half.

Duffy and Robert Sanchez are, by some distance, the most popular FPL players in tonight’s fixture. Both are owned by just under one in four FPL managers overall and just under 40% of the top 10,000 Fantasy bosses, while 11% of the top 10k own both of them.

    Straight red is 3 games in the league, right? Or only for intentional violent conduct?

    1. Smokey_Lowkey
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      One game for professional foul.

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Professional foul, 1 game.

    3. vova
      • 13 Years

      only for intentional violent conduct

    4. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years

      Cheers. Couldn't remember.

  2. vova

    Play Steele or Ramsdale next GW?

    1. Esalman
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ramsdale

    2. BIG TONES
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Never benching Ramsdale ever again after missing 10 points by benching for Foster last GW

    3. mdm
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Steele

  3. Esalman
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Only Son can save my rank now.

  4. lordkippe
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Ramsdale to Dunk worth a hit ?

  5. F4L
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Imagine having a FK 35 yards from goal and not shooting against a CB in goal...

    1. BIG TONES
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ridiculous right

  6. Randaxus
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    I took a hit to go from Sanchez to Guaita.

    1. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      My condolences on missing out on the rollercoaster ride that is SANCHEZZZ

  7. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Steele in goal next game?

    1. mdm
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

  8. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Who plays next week? Sherpa or Steel?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Bench suggests Steele.

    2. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Just wondered that, as Steele is my other keeper - so naturally, the other guy will play

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I have Steele to. Going by how things are going, expect Sherpa to play!

  9. Messiah Hazard
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    LiveFPL predicting a green area for me from 135k to 115k after 25 points from 9 😀

  10. Stimps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Cancelo and Livra benching, double chlesea defence and Sanchez owner here

    1. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ooof. Sorry.

    2. BIG TONES
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      RIP bro. Better luck will come though

    3. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Same. Except Cancelo.

    4. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Pretty much the same here. Got anyone to play?

      1. Stimps
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        TAA, Son, Salah (c), Raphina, Vardy.... So I guess need a haul or 3

        1. Danno - Emre Canada
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Ha pretty much mine as well just Antonio instead of Vardy, so good luck mate. Shocker of a week

    5. Beatle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ouch

  11. borat
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Luckily for me i played foster and benched sanchez by mistake this week.
    30 mins ago i was fuming.

  12. Qaiss
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Farke apparently sacked. What a weird decision.

    1. Randaxus
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      They sacked him after they won? lmfao

    2. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Mad if true

    3. F4L
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Looks like they already had someone lined up, today was just a formality. Still pretty harsh

    4. Cruicky
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      correct decision looking at his PL record. very bizarre timing after they managed to actually win a PL game, should have done it last week.

      1. Randaxus
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        If Pep Guardiola was the manager of Norwich they would still lose almost every game lol

  13. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Criminal from Newcastle not to get a shot on target at all there...

    1. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Dunk is a big unit

  14. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    BBC still has headline Martinez sent off

  15. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    So is Steele the #2

    1. Milk, 1 Šuker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I’m hoping so. He started the cup games.

    2. mdm
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yes. Bench tonight suggests so

  16. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    34 with Ramsdale, White, Salah(C), Trent and Jota left. First decent week in a long time

    1. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A decent week for me too. 43 but just TAA, Salah, and ESR left

  17. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Farke finally wins a game...

    Right, that's it you're sacked!

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Really?

    2. Ode
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      To be fair they've been horrible for the whole season 1 game won doesn't tell much

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Norwich weren't good today either though, it was yet another poor performance

      They conceded 2.79 XG and 19 shots and fluked 2 goals from 1.16 XG

  18. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Kaptain Kane you only have yourself to blame for this Sanchez disaster.

    On 1 save you asked for 2 more.
    - 1 goal attempted
    - 1 denial of goalscoring opportunity

    I blame you entirely.

    1. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Now do you believe the curse!

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Like what are the actual odds of those events occurring like that?!

        1. Gunneryank
          • 2 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          You'd tell us if you were some sort of dark sorcerer, right? We won't tell.

          1. Big boy Bowen
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            Maybe I am and I just don’t know it!

  19. BIG TONES
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Any other Vardy (c) on here?

    1. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Here o/

      1. BIG TONES
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Awesome! Let's go!

        1. Pipermaru
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          It's a smooth sailing for me so far, 44pts, hope it won't go south tomorrow, c'mon Jamie!

          1. BIG TONES
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            Big score for you this week! Well played

  20. Qaiss
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Farke sacked

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      What the Farke?

  21. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    The Athletic report that Norwich manager Daniel Farke has been sacked this evening.

    1. CrouchDown
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Big Sam written all over this

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Perhaps. But Farke is better.

    2. Gubby-Allen
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      It's on the Norwich website.

  22. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    7 pts with antonio vardy salah raph taa white to go screwed up its time to WC

  23. Cok3y5murf
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Damn, was hoping for another Newcastle goal. -2 would've been sweet

  24. Gunneryank
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    For Farke's sake.

    1. You've got red on you.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      For Farke's 'sack'

  25. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Why sack a manager after his first season win?

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Send him out on a high?

    2. F4L
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      give the new guy coming in 2 weeks to work with the squad

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Good plan, except for the fact they haven't got the new guy yet. 😀

        1. F4L
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          if they haven't lined someone up, then yeah it's extremely weird

        2. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          They must have.

  26. Kodap
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Double chelsea defence, Toney & Sanchez.. solid start, Cancelo my only saving grace at the moment.

    Trent, Salah, Son, ESR, Vardy & Antonio left, so not all bad.

    1. LE CHARO
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Triple Chelsea defence here, sold Cancelo for James and Antonio for Toney to fund other moves next GW... Also got Sanchez, Mbeumo and started Broja ahead of Raphinha and Livra.

      On 14 points at the moment with only Trent, Salah, Son and Vardy left. You're fine mate

  27. EffPeeEll
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Farking hell.

    Norwich finally win a game, and away from home at that. and gets the DCM award

    Funny old game as Greavsie would have said.

  28. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Havertz owners keeping or selling and if selling, for who?

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Selling for Son

    2. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Not sure yet but Son or Jota for me.

    3. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Is Lukaku and Werner back? If so, I’ll probably get Jota or Raphinhia

    4. JONALDINHO
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Selling to Son

    5. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      cheers all

    6. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Son coming in.

  29. jonnybhoy
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    So Sanchez to Guatia?

    1. EffPeeEll
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Will he cop a 3 game ban?

      1. mdm
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        1

        1. EffPeeEll
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          thx

      2. Eh, just one more thing ...
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        No … not serious foul play so only 1 match.

    2. I Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Just going to play Steele probably.

  30. Dthinger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Well, now I have a keeper dilemma I guess… do I play Steele who will surely try to snatch his chance at the #1 jersey against Villa, or McCarthy, who will be up against Norwich on a new manager bounce?

    1. mdm
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago
