Injury and Suspension Updates to Note
After serving his suspension, Pedro Neto is available for picking as Chelsea host Newcastle. His teammates Dario Essugo and Romeo Lavia are fit to play after long-term injuries.
With a knock, Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard’s availability for the Everton is yet to be confirmed.
Brighton’s Kaoru Mitoma is unlikely to feature against Sunderland with an ankle injury.
Harry Wilson missed Fulham’s game against West Ham with an ankle injury. He may also miss the Nottingham Forest fixture.
Jadon Sancho will be unavailable for picking as he is ineligible to face his parent club, Manchester United.
In-form Crysencio Summerville (West Ham is out with a calf injury).
Must-Have FPL Picks
While West Ham appear to be finally finding their footing under Nuno Espirito Santo, with a title race and revenge after a humiliation by Real Madrid, Manchester City might just come out on top in this fixture. Erling Haaland (£14.6m), Antoine Semenyo (£8.3m) from Pep Guardiola’s side, and the Hammers’ Jarrod Bowen (£7.5m) are strong selections.
Liverpool host Spurs, whose whole season has been a humiliation ritual. If you expect Tottenham to put up a fight just because Arne Slot’s side are not always so convincing, think again. This is Tottenham we’re talking about. FPL managers can look to the Reds’ Hugo Ekitike (£9.2m), Mohamed Salah (£14.0m), Dominik Szoboszlai (£6.9m) and Virgil van Dijk (£6.2m) as options.
Other Fantasy Football Matchweek 30 must-haves include Chelsea striker Joao Pedro (£7.7m), Arsenal’s Gabriel (£8.2m), Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes (£10.1m), Fulham’s Alex Iwobi (£6.4m), Bournemouth defender Senesi (£5.0m), and Brentford striker Igor Thiago (£7.2m).
