Injury updates to be recorded

• Kai Havertz (Arsenal): Germany Kai Havertz will miss the rest of the season after suffering a hamstring injury during the Dubai training camp – a big blow for Arsenal who has struggled to attack the power in recent years.
• Gabriel Martinelli (Arsenal): Gabriel Martinelli came out earlier in Arsenal’s 2-1 defeat of Newcastle in the Carabao Cup, then added to the misery of attacking Arsenal. The Brazilian winger also suffered a hamstring injury, but it was still being revealed.
• Nicolas Jackson (Chelsea): On the west side of London also looked forward to them down with a hamstring injury. Chelsea’s second top scorer, Nicolas Jackson, chose his injury during Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over West Ham. He rested during the fourth round of the FA Cup. However, Chelsea have learned the seriousness of his injury, putting aside it for weeks/month, with April’s return to target.

Top transfer target

• Chris Wood, Anthony Elanga & Matz Sels (Nottingham Forest): If there is a fantasy football manager without one of the three, I hope you enjoy life at the bottom of your mini league. Nottingham Forest is the most in -form team next to Liverpool this season. And no one has to hesitate when bringing Chris Wood (£ 7.1 million), Anthony Lump (£ 5.3 million) or Matz Cell (5m) into their FPL troops.

• Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah and Trent Aexander-Arnold (Liverpool): Liverpool have my other doubleweek, this time facing wolves and Aston Villa. Cody Gakpo (£ 7.6 million) and Mohamed Salah (£ 13.7 million) tends to score goals, or at least give assists. Trent Alexander-Arnold (£ 7.3 million) can also increase the calculation of its contribution.
• Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa): Morgan Rogers (£ 5.6 million) The owner will enjoy Aston Villa Double Gameweek because Aston Villa hosts Ipswich and Liverpool. With Ollie Watkins, it is not possible to appear after taking a groin injury to wolves, Rogers is a safe betting betting for the next FPL manager.
• Justin Kluviert (Bournemouth): Cherry will face the Southampton table. Expect Justin Kluviert (£ 5.7 million) To return to its strong shape, rise back from loss against Liverpool.

Players to hold/benches

• Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa): Waiting for an injury update from Villa about how long Watkins will come out will be the best, before leap to sell one of the most in -form premier league attackers.

Players to sell

• Kai Havertz (Arsenal): No need to say that the warehouse attacker must be excluded from your FPL plan for the rest of the season.
• Nicolas Jackson (Chelsea): If you continue to hold on to hope that Jackson will return to his previous goal, his hamstring injury now officially kills the dream. You can sell it to further notice.

Captain’s choice

• Mohamed Salah (Liverpool): After giving a tempting point last week during a double gameweek, Mohamed Salah returned. With other double gameweek in front, safe to say the King of Egypt will make your fantasy soccer dream come true. And if you did not do three times the captain last week, maybe it’s time to take the risk this time.
