Get ready for a thrilling Premier League clash as Nottingham Forest takes on Chelsea! But will the teams' recent form and player availability impact your Fantasy Premier League (FPL) lineup decisions?
The Battle at City Ground:
Nottingham Forest, sitting in 17th place, faces a daunting task against the mighty Chelsea, who are currently 7th. The match, set for October 18th at 12:30 BST, could be a turning point for both teams.
Predicted Line-ups:
- Nottingham Forest: The Forest's recent form has been lackluster, with a six-game run of LLDLL. Their best player for expected goal involvement (xGI) during this period is yet to be determined.
- Chelsea: The Blues have had a mixed bag of results, WDLLW, and their top player for xGI in the last six Gameweeks is also a mystery at this point.
FPL Team News:
- Price Change Predictions: Players like Pope (NEW), Grealish (EVE), and White (ARS) are very likely to rise in value, while many others are expected to remain stable or even drop.
- Injury and Rotation Concerns: Keep an eye on the injury list and potential rotation risks, as these could impact your FPL strategy. And this is the part most people miss—the importance of staying updated with team news and press conferences.
Controversial Picks and Strategies:
- Sanchez: A key player for Chelsea, but will he deliver against Nottingham Forest? Some FPL managers might consider him a risky pick.
- Dubravka: Could be a potential bargain for BUR, but is he worth the risk?
- Senesi: BOU's Senesi is a player to watch, but is he a reliable FPL asset?
