Following on from the goalless draw at Anfield, four more Premier League matches get underway at the traditional Saturday afternoon kick-off time.

Leicester City v Brighton and Hove Albion is the stand-out fixture from a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) perspective, with interest in the free-scoring visitors heightened in recent weeks.

James Maddison is back on the bench for the hosts, who swap out Wilfred Ndidi and Marc Albrighton for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Dennis Praet.

There are two changes for Brighton, too, one of which sees Danny Welbeck start in place of budget FPL forward Evan Ferguson. Jan Paul van Hecke also makes his first Premier League start in place of defender Levi Colwill, who is out with a muscular injury.

It’s one change apiece at St Mary’s: Adam Armstrong replaces Mohamed Elyounoussi for the hosts, while new Aston Villa signing Alex Moreno is handed his full debut in place of the injured Lucas Digne.

Danny Ings is on the bench for new club West Ham as David Moyes recalls Kurt Zouma, Said Benrahma and Emerson Palmieri for Aaron Cresswell, Tomas Soucek and Pablo Fornals.

Yerry Mina for Ben Godfrey is Everton’s only change.

Among Bournemouth’s five changes is a debut for winger Dango Ouattara.

Nottingham Forest also hand a first start to a new acquisition: Chris Wood replaces Gustavo Scarpa up top.

Injured goalkeeper Dean Henderson is replaced by Wayne Hennessey, while Willy Boly makes a very swift recovery and comes in for Scott McKenna.

    First goal on target goes in after almost thirty minutes from a zero percentage chance, it's just so typical.

    Ward cs gone as expected but Kepa cs against odds..Mitoma on the other hand...

    2. TheTinman
      • 10 Years

        • 7 Years

      VAR looking at Bowen goal ….. GOAL GIVEN

  8. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Boy: Ouch!!!!
    Mum: What happened??
    Boy: I just stubbed Mitoma

  9. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Is Ward the goat?

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      No, the goat would have got a hoof to it.

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Amazing consistency

    3. Free Hat
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Tbf he was before the break.
      Scored a ridiculous amount of points when not expected

  10. FPL Emu
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    I have two FTs, but how do I even use them here? No player seems right to take out, but I have infinite blankers

    DDG

    Shaw, Trippier, White

    Rashford, KDB, Mahrez, Mitoma

    Kane, Haaland, Toney

    (Ward, Mac Allister, Doherty, Bueno)

    1. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Maybe Doherty to a 4m to free up some funds for future use.

      1. FPL Emu
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Yeah I guess that makes as much sense as anything.

    2. Going Home
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      I’ve been out of the loop. What is the situation re potential blanks?

  11. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    For 6 pointer matches on at once

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years

      Whoops

  12. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years

    2. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Great

    3. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Took me a while to work out if he still played for Leicester City ..

    4. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Sanchez CS gone?

    5. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Marco Brighton 1 - 1 Brighton & Hove Albion

  13. Tonyawesome69
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Mitoma is a cracking player. He can go down the line or come inside, defender has no idea how to defend

  14. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Estupinian fail ?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      At least he has an assist

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Very much so

  15. Unliklinho
    • 12 Years

    Adios Fat Frank...?

    1. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Ello mi old mate Dyche

  16. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Owning Brighton and Leicester defence. Was only one way this was going. At least all the hope was extinguished early.

  17. SamH123
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Albrighton stopped it being allbrighton in Leicester/Brighton

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

  19. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    It's been Albrighton but he's equalised.

    1. FPL Emu
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      It's been Al brighton but a Leicester dude just equalised

      There

  20. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    That guy Albrighton has played in Premier Leauge for 80 years almost!
    In his first Premier League season, Anelka won golden boot, Nemanja Vidić won the Premier League Player of the Season

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      He's no James Milner

  21. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. JBG
