FPL injury update: Gordon, Doku, Calvert-Lewin, Eze and Nkunku fitness latest for GW15
Managers of the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) have until Tuesday, December 5 at 18:00 (GMT) to finalize their GW15 rosters.
This midweek, all 20 clubs are in play. The two most notable matches are Manchester United vs Chelsea and Manchester City vs Aston Villa.
Newcastle United host Everton, and the Magpies will be keen to build on their impressive win over United on Saturday.
In terms of individuals, in-form winger Anthony Gordon would need no second invitation to put his former employers to the sword.
The winger was withdrawn in second-half stoppage time against United, with manager Eddie Howe explaining: “I don’t know at this moment in time, I hope he is OK.
He just said he was feeling a tightness in his hip, fingers crossed it’s nothing serious.”
Gordon returning in time to face the Toffees is by no means out of the picture, but FPL managers planning to throw him into the side may be wise to hold fire until there is clarity on the 22-year-old’s condition.
From one lightning-quick wide man to another, Jeremy Doku was hauled off with just over 50 minutes on the clock as Manchester City and Tottenham drew 3-3 at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
The sight of the Belgian limping slightly will not have been a welcome one for Sky Blues boss Pep Guardiola, who is already without fellow left-winger Jack Grealish for Wednesday night’s trip to Villa Park due to suspension.
It therefore seems likely that Doku will be rushed back into the starting XI if he is physically able, although City are yet to provide details on the specifics of his knock.
