Brighton FPL Gameweek 24: Ayari Seeks Spectacular Moments
In Gameweek 24 of the 2025-26 Fantasy Premier League season, Brighton’s Yasin Ayari showcased his knack for spectacular goals. The midfielder scored a powerful strike from just inside the box during a match against Fulham. This goal marked Ayari’s second in his last five appearances, along with two assists, making him a significant player for both Brighton and Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers.
Yasin Ayari’s Growing Influence
Yasin Ayari has subtly emerged as a crucial asset under coach Fabian Hurzeler. The Swedish international has faced criticism for his earlier lack of goals. However, his recent performances indicate a positive shift in his offensive contributions.
- Current FPL Price: £4.8 million
- Goals in Last Five Matches: 2
- Assists in Last Five Matches: 2
Ayari’s goal at Craven Cottage came on the 28th minute, unleashing a strike so powerful that Fulham’s goalkeeper, Bernd Leno, could not prevent it. His impact was further highlighted by a rare assist from Olivier Boscagli, marking a significant moment in the match.
Match Overview: Brighton vs. Fulham
Brighton appeared to be on the brink of securing a draw against Fulham until Harry Wilson’s late free kick clinched a victory for the Cottagers. Brighton has struggled at Craven Cottage, with only one point gained from six Premier League visits. Despite the loss, Brighton outperformed Fulham in several metrics:
- Total Attempts: Brighton 13 – Fulham 12
- Shots Inside the Box: Brighton 10 – Fulham 5
- Opta-Defined Big Chances: Brighton 4 – Fulham 2
Following Ayari’s stunning goal, Fulham equalized in the 72nd minute. Danny Welbeck thought he had put Brighton ahead shortly after, but VAR intervened, ruling out his goal for a marginal offside. Welbeck had multiple chances to score, but his efforts were thwarted.
Expanding Player Insights
As the season progresses, Ayari’s overall contributions have become noteworthy. Since Gameweek 19, he has ranked high for long-range shots and has registered impressive statistics:
- Total Shots: 39 (most without a big chance)
- Defensive Contributions: 3 FPL rewards in recent matches
Despite being an unused substitute in Gameweek 22 against Bournemouth, Ayari’s comeback performance proves his readiness to deliver for the team. His continued development makes him an appealing option for FPL managers seeking budget-friendly midfielders.
FPL Trends and Captaincy Options
The latest FPL trends showcase shifting player popularity. An absence of big-name players in Gameweek 23, due to benchings, has affected many managers. Nonetheless, players like Bruno Fernandes from Manchester United have seen increased demand.
- Top Transferred-In Player: Bruno Fernandes (£9.5 million)
- Upcoming Fixtures for Chelsea: West Ham, Wolverhampton, Leeds, Burnley
As teams prepare for Gameweek 24, many may return to captaining Erling Haaland, considering his scoring record at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Meanwhile, captaincy options for players facing easier fixtures include those from Manchester United and Chelsea.
