Brighton v Leeds team news: Raphinha returns as Duffy is benched

Brighton and Hove Albion take on Leeds United in the final Premier League match of the day, with two of the three most-owned Fantasy Premier League (FPL) assets on show back from injury and suspension – and the other one benched.

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

Robert Sanchez is back between the posts for the hosts after serving a one-game suspension in Gameweek 12, replacing Jason Steele.

Shane Duffy is a substitute for only the second time this season, however, with Joel Veltman recalled at the expense of the Irishman.

Neal Maupay for Adam Lallana is Graham Potter’s other alteration, while Enock Mwepu is back on the bench after recovering from a muscle injury.

Any notable Fantasy interest in Leeds players is restricted to Raphinha, who sits in around one in five FPL squads and in over 50% of the top 10,000 managers’ teams.

He and Rodrigo replace Joe Gelhardt and Mateusz Klich in Marcelo Bielsa’s starting XI, while Junior Firpo is in for Pascal Struijk at left-back.

GAMEWEEK 13 LINE-UPS

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Sanchez, Dunk, Webster, Veltman, Cucurella, Lamptey, Bissouma, Moder, Gross, Trossard, Maupay.

Subs: Steele, Mac Allister, Mwepu, Lallana, March, Duffy, Locadia, Richards, Sarmiento.

Leeds United XI: Meslier, Llorente, Cooper, Firpo, Dallas, Forshaw, Phillips, Harrison, James, Raphinha, Rodrigo.

Subs: Klaesson, Roberts, Struijk, Gelhardt, Cresswell, Klich, McCarron, Shackleton, Jenkins.

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

      It'll come at a cost 🙁

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

  3. MidTableFantasy

    Raph to Bilva? Nothing else pressing.

    1. JBG
      • 5 Years

    1. JBG
      • 5 Years

    3. Ephurion
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Please no. Would ruin my great GW so far

    4. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      As a Sanchez and Raph owner I'd take it.

    5. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Would be a travesty

  5. HonestBlatter
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Sanchez has to get some baps from this

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

      Why? Game has been played down the other end

  6. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    9 goals from 5 games and LFC with 45% of them.

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

      Another reason to why 5-4-1 is better going forward.

  7. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Blew it Ref

  8. Dennis System

  9. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    4 players on 1 bonus

    1. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Sanchez should get extra bps for staying awake 1st half.

      1. HonestBlatter
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        This

  10. g40steve

    Sa > No laughing De Gea for the fixture run?

    1. tbos83
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No way

      1. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        9 ranked 2 difficulty
        4 ranked 3 difficulty

        Till March?

  11. JBG
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Why has Bielsa put Raph on the left??

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

      Cameras might pick him out better

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Trying to find him some space probably. Was marked out of the game on the right.

  12. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Really let down by my midfield ....esr, Gallagher, raphina..... Pain

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      When it comes to budget glue guys (5.5m-6.5m), you can't beat the defenders atm.

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

      You get what you pay

  13. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Brighton content with their point at home, pathetic, please concede

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

      Should be 3 or 4 up … if only they had a striker

  14. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    3 - Cucurella (35)
    2 - Lamptey (31)
    1 - Sánchez (28)

    Meslier (26)
    Veltman (25)
    Dunk (25)

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

      Hope this stays

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Weird given Meslier has kept Leeds in it

    3. Ephurion
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Livramento-> Lamptey could become popular

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

        No point if Brighton miss every sitter he creates

  15. fusen
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Raph just went from 1 BPS to 2 BPS

    3 minutes left to get 30 more...

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

      ?

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

        the players with the most BPS get bonus points, they are two separate things.

      2. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        BPS vs bonus

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

      ?

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

      Yeah but people only actually care about the bonus points.

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

        All the more reason to pay attention to BPS to figure out who is going to get the bonus

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

          Hahaha … not when you talking about 1 BPS or 2 BPS …

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

            I appreciate you point was to highlight just how pish Raphinha has been tbf.

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

    14 shots off target BHA

  17. JBG
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    These players don't like to score goals it seems.

  18. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Raphinha to Jota is going to be a popular move for GW14!

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Crazy before Palace.

    2. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      He’ll stay in my team for another 2 weeks

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Leeds are sh*te though.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Really are, Palace will win

    4. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Just unfortunate it's late for non owners, missed a haul

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        More to come, no doubt

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          I do hope so!

  19. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Wilson or Jesus?

    1. tbos83
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Wilson has good couple of fixtures

  20. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Meslier.

    1 CS all the time I had him. Sold him 2 weeks ago. Now he keeps a Cleanie.

    Guaita, CS galore until I get him.

    I can never get it right with keepers.

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

      I recommend swallowing that pride and just get Ramsdale. I just did, and it feels good

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, probably will on my wildcard.

  21. _Ninja_
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. OptimusBlack

  24. Pukki Party

  26. HTL
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    A) Raphinha > Jota & Duffy > Johnson (-4)

    Team is currently

    Robbie Savage is so annoying on 606.

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      He's so annoying on every other platform as well

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

      Total pranny.

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

      That's his job. He's annoying, so his Sutton, but they're better craic than most pundits. Some good buzz on their show the odd time.

    I watched the two 0-0 games.At least it was a good fpl day.

    1. HTL
      • 5 Years

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

        We played so bad.There is no one that can create chances for Raul...

      Looks like my bunch with a different frontline.
