Even though the Champions League is wrapped up for another week, a few talking points from the European action spilled into the Fantasy Premier League realm.
One issue to arise from the Arsenal v Real Madrid game was Bukayo Saka (£10.4 million) limping off after 74 minutes.
“Bukayo Saka has not suffered any serious injury,” Gunners manager Mikel Arteta said. “He’s fine – I think it was a kick.”
Having just returned from three months out with a hamstring injury and with the crucial away leg at the Santiago Bernabeu to come next week, Saka will be on the bench on Saturday for the third Premier League game in a row, I predict.
But the big talking point ahead of Gameweek 32, the deadline for which is Saturday at 6pm for Hongkongers, is the Double Gameweek for in-form Crystal Palace and fifth-placed Newcastle.
