Jason Puncheon returns in time for Palace’s cup clash with Reading this evening. Riyahd Mahrez has fully recovered from the cramp that led to his withdrawal at Watford, Shane Long is back for Southampton’s trip to Stoke, whilst Aaron Lennon remains a doubt as Everton square up to Chelsea in the last eight of the FA Cup.

Claudio Ranieri has confirmed that Riyad Mahrez has fully recovered from the cramp that saw him withdrawn late on against Watford last Saturday evening. Matty James is the only absentee for the Foxes clash with Newcastle on Monday.

Per Mertesacker and Gabriel have both recovered from the injuries that forced them off against Hull on Tuesday night. Laurent Koscielny has “a little chance” of making Sunday’s cup clash with Watford, whilst Arsene Wenger went on to reveal that Aaron Ramsey’s thigh problem is “a small alert”, though the Gunners have yet to establish a full prognosis.

Jason Puncheon is available for Palace’s cup clash with Reading tonight. Connor Wickham remains ruled out with a thigh injury and is expected back in time for the Gameweek 32 clash against West Ham in early April. Wayne Hennessey is back in contention after missing out with a minor injury last weekend.

Aaron Lennon is “progressing well” from a hamstring injury but remains a doubt for Everton’s cup clash with Chelsea. Bryan Oviedo is a doubt after picking up a chest infection, though Tom Cleverley and Gareth Barry have both recovered from similar complaints. Kevin Mirallas serves the first of a two-match ban for the Toffees.

Shane Long has recovered from a knee injury in time for Southampton’s trip to Stoke. Skipper Jose Fonte sits this one out after being sent off against Sunderland last week, whilst Jay Rodriguez is set to step up his fitness by turning out for the reserves next week.

Eddie Howe has confirmed that he’ll make a late decision on the fitness of Harry Arter. The Bournemouth boss revealed that Josh King is playing with a knock, though Junior Stanislas remains sidelined with a hamstring injury.

All this and more has now been updated in the Team News section ahead of tomorrow’s deadline. Keep an eye on our official Twitter Stream for breaking news – as the day unfolds, we will issue updates from Friday’s press conferences and refresh our Team News tab accordingly to keep you informed.

    "Yaya Toure has a problem in his heel - he is out tomorrow," says the Chilean. "We don't know about Kiev on Tuesday."

    And I just brought him in...

    Super confused !,

    I have
    Hart
    Toby Targett Fuschs
    Siggy Silva Mahrez Alli
    Aguero (C) Kane Vardy

    Bench : Arnie, Bellerin and Ward.

    I really want to play Arnie, and I have already used my All Out Attack and hence cant ship out Targett and go for a 2-5-3 formation. The only person I can think of swapping with Arnie in the midfield is Siggy, but looking at his form in recent weeks, I have no reason as to why I should not take him.

    Thoughts please?

    Thanks a ton in advance

    damn, forgot to change my Captain back from Kane to Kun - I now have that horrible uneasy feeling in the pit of my gut ... that Kun is on for 5 goals

    In a previous GW I had Kane not Kun. With 15 minutes to go Kun had done nothing. Then he gets 2 goals to my frustration.

    Kun is class. Patience is a virtue.
