Team news, injury updates and predicted line-ups for FPL Gameweek 3

Gameweek 3 is upon us and we’ve got all the important team news information in our weekly press conference summary below.

For more detailed information, check out our Predicted Line-ups page and Injuries and Bans feed plus Az and Neale’s video below:

Man City vs Arsenal

Kevin De Bruyne (ankle) and Phil Foden (foot) remain unavailable, while off-the-field issues involving Benjamin Mendy means he is also out of the equation for the visit of Arsenal. 

“He’s getting better but still is not fit.” – Pep Guardiola on Kevin De Bruyne

Thomas Partey (ankle) and Eddie Nketiah (ankle) are still out, while Mikel Arteta’s press conference comments intimated that Ben White (illness) would remain sidelined as he has yet to return to training despite described as “asymptomatic”.

There are concerns beyond this trio, too, with Willian building up match fitness after his own spell in self-isolation and Gabriel (knee) only just back in training after a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Hector Bellerin (thigh), Bukayo Saka (knock), Alex Runarsson (illness) and Kieran Tierney (thigh) have all now returned to full training, however, and are available for selection. 

Aston Villa vs Brentford

Bertrand Traore (hamstring), Morgan Sanson (match fitness), Leon Bailey (hamstring), Trezeguet (knee) and Keinan Davis (unspecified) will all miss the visit of Brentford but we could see a return for Ollie Watkins (knee), who will be available for selection should he have come through Friday’s final training session unscathed. 

Mads Sorensen (knee) is set for a long spell on the sidelines but Ethan Pinnock has recovered from the ankle knock he sustained in the EFL Cup tie against Forest Green in midweek, while Shandon Baptiste (ankle) and Mathias Jensen (foot) will be assessed after returns to training to see if they can be involved in the matchday squad.

There was no word on Tariq Fosu (knock) or Charlie Goode (knock) in Thomas Frank’s pre-match press conference but the Brentford boss did say that “everyone from the Crystal Palace game should be available”, which could mean that the pair are no longer blighted by the fitness issues that they picked up in the interim.

Brighton vs Everton

The Everton website reported late on Friday night that “Rafael Benitez is waiting to make a decision on the involvement of Dominic Calvert-Lewin at Brighton, with the striker’s training programme still restricted by a toe problem”.

Moise Kean starts a three-match ban, meanwhile, but Benitez was coy about Everton’s other team news on Friday, saying only that Fabian Delph (shoulder) was set to miss the trip to Brighton and refusing to elaborate further.

He had been more loose-tongued when speaking to club media the day before, however, confirming that Alex Iwobi had complained of tightness in his quad following the midweek win over Huddersfield – although the winger has been sighted in training since.

Ben Godfrey and James Rodriguez are both now out of their quarantine periods following positive Covid-19 tests, meanwhile, although no sight of the former in training ground images (despite travelling to that EFL Cup in a watching capacity) and doubts over Rodriguez’s future means that their involvement at the Amex is still in question.

Tariq Lamptey (hamstring), Dan Burn (knee) and Joel Veltman (self-isolating) all look set to miss the visit of Everton but Graham Potter did provide relatively positive updates on another trio of players, with injuries to Enock Mwepu (knock) and Neal Maupay (shoulder) not as serious as first feared and Danny Welbeck (hamstring) in line for a return on the bench this weekend.

There is still some doubt over whether Mwepu and Maupay will feature: the former was described as only having an “outside chance” of involvement but the latter has trained and Potter said he was “hopeful”, although stressed that he would continue to be monitored “as we get closer to the game”.

Newcastle vs Southampton

Martin Dubravka (foot), Jonjo Shelvey (calf) and Karl Darlow (illness) will all miss the visit of Southampton, while Isaac Hayden (knee) remains “touch and go”.

Paul Dummett is back in contention after a calf problem, however, while Allan Saint-Maximin is expected to brush off a knock that he picked up in Wednesday’s EFL Cup tie against Burnley

Will Smallbone (knee) and Stuart Armstrong (calf) are Southampton’s only confirmed injury-related absentees.

Norwich vs Leicester

Jannik Vestergaard (knee), Jonny Evans (foot), James Justin (knee) and Wesley Fofana (leg) will all miss the trip to Norwich City.

Ryan Bertrand is available after recovering from Covid-19, meanwhile, although Brendan Rodgers’ comments about “seeing where he’s at, in terms of game time” suggests a start is still in doubt.

The biq team news question is over who gets the nod in place of the suspended Ayoze Perez and whether it elicits a change in system. When asked about Perez’s replacement in Thursday’s presser, Rodgers said that he was looking for “someone who can penetrate with or without the ball, someone who can deliver quality and someone who can press the game when we don’t have the ball.”

Przemyslaw Placheta (illness), Bali Mumba (knee) and Sam Byram (hamstring) are all sidelined for the Canaries while Josh Sargent (glute) and Christos Tzolis (calf) are doubts after picking up problems in midweek. Sargent is a “minor question mark” according to Daniel Farke but Tzolis is a bigger doubt, and faces assessment over the next 24 hours to see if he can feature.

West Ham vs Crystal Palace

Arthur Masuaku (match fitness) looks likelier to return on the other side of the international break but West Ham are otherwise in fine fettle, with David Moyes only reporting his usual weekly “knocks” but adding that “most of us are okay”. 

Eberechi Eze (Achilles), Michael Olise (back), Nathan Ferguson (Achilles) and Luka Milivojevic (match fitness) remain unavailable but Patrick Vieira said his squad had come through the midweek EFL Cup defeat to Watford unscathed, so there are no fresh concerns.

Liverpool vs Chelsea

Fabinho and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain returned to training this week after missing Gameweek 2 for personal reasons and Andrew Robertson is back in contention for a start after making the bench against Burnley last weekend, leaving only James Milner (knock) on the sidelines for the visit of Chelsea.

“Robbo trained the whole week, of course he [is] in contention, no doubt about that. Millie will not be ready – I think that’s it pretty much. All the rest trained and looked good and sharp.” – Jurgen Klopp

Christian Pulisic (illness) and the West Ham-bound Kurt Zouma (personal reasons) are the only absentees we know of ahead of Chelsea’s clash with Liverpool, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek making a return to training following a spell in self-isolation.

Burnley vs Leeds

Marcelo Bielsa told the media on Friday that Robin Koch (pelvis) was making progress in his recovery from injury but “not completely healthy”, so the Germany international looks set to miss out on the trip to Burnley.

The Leeds boss was otherwise coy on the team news front but there are no other known issues to report, with Diego Llorente and Adam Forshaw back involved in the EFL Cup in midweek. Bielsa indeed said in his pre-Gameweek 3 press conference that he thought Llorente was ready for 90 minutes.

Kevin Long (Achilles) and Dale Stephens (ankle) are Burnley’s only two confirmed absentees, with Ashley Westwood (toe) and Matej Vydra (knock) both back in training and hopeful of inclusion on Sunday. 

Spurs vs Watford

Nuno Espirito Santo confirmed on Friday that an out-in-the-cold Tanguy Ndombele will again not be considered for selection despite the lack of injury, while Joe Rodon (unspecified) and Cameron Carter-Vickers (ankle) are still on the injury list.

The return of Thursday’s two-goal hero Harry Kane to the Lilywhites’ starting XI looms large, with the Spurs head coach perhaps hinting at a first league start of 2021/22 for the England international when saying that “he is still improving but playing is the best way for all players to improve”.

Joao Pedro (knee), Ben Foster (hamstring), Ozan Tufan (unavailable) and Dan Gosling (illness) will miss the trip to Spurs, while Nathaniel Chalobah (illness) is still working on match fitness with the Watford medical team and Juraj Kucka (thigh) had only been involved in light training as of Friday. 

Wolves vs Man Utd

Scott McTominay (groin), Dean Henderson (illness), Alex Telles (ankle), Phil Jones (knee) and Marcus Rashford (shoulder) are Manchester United’s absentees for the clash with Wolves.

“He is working really hard. When I asked him if he was ready to play, we had a behind-closed-doors [game] against Burnley and he felt: ‘No, I need to suffer on the training field first.

“He needs to work because you know he had his holidays, he came in, said his goodbyes at Real Madrid, then he didn’t train with them, then he was waiting for his visa, then he came here, had his isolation. 

“He’s had a good couple weeks of training and he’s looking impressive.” – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Raphael Varane

Long-term injury victims Jonny (knee) and Pedro Neto (knee) remain sidelined for Wolves but Willy Boly and Yerson Mosquera have returned to training after hamstring injuries and will be assessed ahead of the visit of Manchester United.

      .....goes down to win a penalty. Bruno places the ball on the spot

        .... for Ronaldo to take it

      Heart warming how they're funding his retirement plan.

        Essentially. It would be funny if signing him undoes all the rebuild work since Ole took over

        1. Tcheco
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          This is the downside. They’ve built a nice squad balance with Bruno becoming top dog - interesting to see how it plays out

      A and B both good shouts. I lean to B.

    3. Visionaries
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      If you have a FT I'd cash in on Tsim now. Otherwise you don't need to make a change. Very similar team to mine

  3. Tcheco

    Nooo DCL

      Time for Cenk Tosun to step up

    2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      What?

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        It's a hilarious joke

        1. Bennerman
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Isn't it...?

        2. Tcheco
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          I hope so. Benitez comments naturally worrying for a new owner

          1. Bennerman
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Does seem a bit of a concern, can't instantly recall whether Rafa is generally a blusterer or generally tells the truth in press conferences

      2. Tcheco
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Woke up to a yellow flag

    3. Zoostation
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Seems like their is more to this then we thought.

      I'm likely going to Ings for a -4, seems crazy but sometimes this game is worth the risk.

      Will likely captain him as well.

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        He either starts or is ruled out, which means you can sell for Jimenez or Ronaldo next GW. Trust your bench

        Do you have a bench?

        1. Tcheco
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Bissouma. Will keep for GW4 regardless I think

  4. timawflowers
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    keep salah or bring in son for a hit, worried no spurs cover this week

    1. FPL price manipulators are …
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Play the long game

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      What will you be worried about next I wonder? Just do it, worry is a terrible thing.

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Worry is interest paid on a debt that doesn't yet exist.

        Something along those lines, from some wise man or another

        1. Indpush
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          "Worry is interest paid on trouble before it becomes due."
          William R. Inge

          “Worrying is like paying a debt you don't owe.”
          Mark Twain

          1. Bennerman
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            There you go, cheers. The Twain one, think I was badly recalling

  5. Ci Siamo
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    I am finding myself getting sucked into the groupthink and going for Antonio (c) over Bruno.

    My gut has been saying Bruno (c) but I haven't actually watched Wolves myself which makes me think there must be a reason so many people are going for Antonio.

    Worried about destroying my rank just before International break haha

    1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Well you may destroy it with Antonio:D

    2. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Wolves did alright last week v Spurs but gave up chances still, especially when Kane came on. I'm also considering Bruno(C), due to them bound to be absolute bouncing into the game with the Ronaldo news

      1. Ci Siamo
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks guys, keep flip flopping

    3. rnrd
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Same dilemma here but leaning towards Antonio::

      - Great stats
      - on red hot form
      - West Ham on fire
      - CRY still a wip

      what can you ask for more?

      bruno carries a EO fear factor and he can score big but I think United might struggle a bit and they will have to cope with Traore.

      You can't ignore all those points he hasn't got yet.

  9. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Been on Antonio all week but with Ronaldo incoming and Fernandes possibly making way to raise funds it’s leaning me onto Bruno for one last hoorah!! Those in the same boat, who to captain:

    1. Fernandes (wol)
    2. Antonio (CRY)

    Thanks

    1. The Knights Template

        Would you say it’s the sensible option? Highest EO%?

    2. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Leaning to Bruno too here

      1. FCSB
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        I keep grounding myself by saying head over heart though… if it wasn’t for Ronaldo I’d still be on Antonio… so I guess going with Bruno would be sentimental…

        What percent for each are you?

  13. anish10
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Which to play

    A) James
    B) Livramento

    1. BlueEddy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      tough..I'm on the same...I think the attacking potential of James just scrapes it...but will it be a high scoring game?

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      B

    3. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      James

  14. TAT
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    I’m torn between making 1FT this GW or a-4 in preparation for a spot for Ronaldo.

    - 1 FT of will give me 2FTs over the international break, though I might WC anyway to restructure.
    - A -4 will allow me to restructure to a 3-4-3 including Kane (potential captain if bringing him in) before the international break. Kane could become Ronaldo, and I could take another -4 to bring in DCL, and potentially avoid using the WC.

    Which route sound better?

    Sánchez
    TAA - Shaw - Ayling
    Benrahma - Greenwood - Barnes - Salah - Fernandes
    Antonio - Ings
    (Foster - Tsimikas - Veltman - Perica)

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      The second restructure

      1. TAT
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Hate taking hits though, but there's an upside in keeping the WC a bit longer, I guess. If using the WC over the international break, I can target this gameweek a bit more come to think of it, not just using the planned 1FT of Barnes to Raphinha.

    2. BlueEddy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Second structure and captain Kane

      1. TAT
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        I forgot to mention above that I'll be dropping Fernandes to make the restructure possible, which feels a bit risky given the fixture. It will certainly not be playing it safe going with the restructure!

  15. BlueEddy
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Going forward, who would be a better pick?
    Pereira
    Cresswell (excellent fixtures but would mean tripling up on WHU)
    Shaw
    Digne

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Cresswell

  16. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Any 4.7m defenders worth a -4 if planning to WC next week? Current defenders are:

    Trent, Shaw, White, Veltman, Tsimikas

    1. BlueEddy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Defenders are not really worth the hit. If they concede one goal, you're at -2

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      You should know better than this.

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Haha. I was hoping there was a new shiny one that somebody could recommend! Chances of getting any points from Tsim, White or Veltman? Doesn’t look promising!

          It does not

    3. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Might not get your points back but Dier at 4.6 might keep a clean sheet against Watford

  17. Budgies

    WC activated, I’m currently on this….

    Sanchez, Gunn
    TAA, Regulion, Armartey Janes, Livramento
    Jota, Grealish, Bruno, Benrahma, Bissouma
    Antonio, Ings, Lukaku

    With the news of Ronaldo I’m considering this, and would swap Kane out and £0.5m left over

    Sanchez, Gunn
    TAA, Regulion, Armartey Janes, Livramento
    Jota, Grealish, Pogba, Benrahma, Bissouma
    Antonio, Kane, Lukaku

    Thoughts? Stick or swap?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      No Kane, no gain.

    2. BlueEddy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Bold! No Salah, nor Fernandes...Good luck!!!

      1. Budgies
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Bruno will lose pts from Ronaldo taking penalty’s, and said it time and time again….I don’t believe Salah is worth £5m more than Jota for the extra pts Salah will score.

        1. BlueEddy
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          It's good! I'm tempted as well. I am on WC this week and have been playing around with that idea...

        2. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Why the hell would the best pen taker in the league stop taking them?

        3. FPL_trail_runner
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Bruno wont lose anything this week

          and Bruno + Ronaldo is very fine for week 4 home to Newcastle, then move on for Salah week 5

  18. George Agdgdgwngo

    On a wc. Shall I go Reguilon or Shaw?

    1. BlueEddy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      I'm in a similar quandary... have you looked at Cresswell, Pereira or Digne too? Between those two though, I'd go Shaw

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Will Ronaldo compete for Shaw's position?

      1. George Agdgdgwngo
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Position? Wtf?

        He may take some set pieces off him though

        1. The Knights Template
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Pretty sure Ole wants him at LB.

    This crisis rocketed the PL in front of any other leagues financially, and the margins between who can afford what are bigger than before bar a few financially healthy examples. In other words, in crises, the rich are getting richer. This will take years (or just Brexit) to overturn.

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Brexit is the crisis

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        There was a lull in PL spending during Brexit uncertainty, what we are seeing is the effects of Brexit certainty and it aint pretty

      Chaos is a ladder, start climbing and get over it.

    3. Bennerman
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      This is true. Football finances are real, and a year without fans means vast majority of clubs just had a massive hit, select few survived and have strength.

      One problem is, though

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        That those clubs finding it difficult to sell, because other clubs can't afford fee/wages.

        So of you see a very big squad, you know who still has money!

  20. Von Lipwig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Bench one... It's toney right?

    A) Greenwood (WOL a)
    B) Raph (BUR a)
    C) Toney (AVL a)

    1. Von Lipwig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      I'll take that as 'yes, stupid question' 🙂

      1. The Knights Template
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        This

  21. AzzaroMax99
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Sanchez
    Shaw Dier Digne
    Salah Bruno Raphina Pogba
    Antonio(C) DCL Wilson

    4.0 Ayling Gilmour Tsimikas

    G2G?

    Only dilemma is start Digne or Ayling?

    1. BlueEddy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Digne to start....he's been close to scoring points...

  22. DR0GBA
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Would you do Salah > Son (-4) if you play wildcard next week anyway?

    I'd be captaining Son

    1. George Agdgdgwngo
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      No

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah go for it

  23. Fernandito
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    What would you do with Mahrez?
    A Keep & have 2 FT for next GW
    B Grealish
    C Benrahma
    D Raphinha

  24. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Roll FT?

    Sanchez
    Coufal TAA Shaw
    Ben Mo Pog Bruno Raph
    Antonio(c) Ings

    Bench: Ayling Tsimikas Perica
    0,5m ITB, 1 FT

    1. Pratik
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Roll!

  25. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    This GW only:

    A) Toney & Livramento
    B) Toney & Cresswell (-4)
    C) Grealish & Livramento (-4)
    D) Raphinha & Livramento (-4)

    B puts Livramento on the bench, otherwise I just have Brownhill.

    Cheers

  26. It’s gonna Ben Mee

    Vardy captainers will be the winners this GW

    1. FPL_trail_runner
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Not sure if its viable

      Expect Nacho this week with Vardy and leicester are very poor in attacknig data so far.

      Ive gone for Lukaku for now, and save a future transfer

  27. FPL_trail_runner
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    If DCL is out makes my WC even sweeter as i avoided him. 0.3mil in bank. Ronaldo in week 4 for Kane, at 12mil or 12.5mil forward, Salah for Bruno week 5.

    Sanchez (matthews)
    TAA Shaw James Duffy (Liv)
    Raphina Bruno Benrahma ( gilmour , biss)
    Kane (c) Antonio Lukaku

    3 premiums + TAA is pretty nice and balanced.

    1. Dannyb
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      That is a very nice looking team to be fair.

      1. FPL_trail_runner
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Yep

        I switched greenwood (now dont like his chances with Ronaldo) + DCL (was always 50 50 on him) for 4.5mil bench + Lukaku and playing one of duffy / Livramento each week which is viable i believe.

  28. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    what happened to DCL? (no updates today so where did they got this toe injury news?)

    1. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Stubbed his toe (again)

    2. The Knights Template

      Ingrown toenail.

  29. Get up ya bum
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    The wildcard almost picks itself except for gk. Sa vs Meslier is annoying me

    1. FPL_trail_runner
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      I agree 🙂

      But is Sanchez now. See mine above

        This is me

        Sa
        TAA James dier
        Salah Pogba benrhama Traore

        1. FPL_trail_runner
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Different

          Interesting. planning Kane to Ronaldo?And no Lukaku plan for a while ya?

          Im more than happy with the 3 premiums option + TAA

          1. Get up ya bum
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Keeping options open. Will assess Kane and Lukaku this gw. No plans for Ronaldo ATM

  30. Devos

    Amartey
    Shaw
