As Gameweek 33 approaches, Fantasy Premier League managers are keeping a close eye on fitness updates for key players. Among the most discussed are Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold, Bournemouth’s Justin Kluivert, and Nottingham Forest forward Chris Wood.
Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool)
Liverpool’s standout defender, Trent Alexander-Arnold, is back in training following an ankle injury he picked up during a Champions League clash with PSG. Manager Arne Slot has stated that the right-back could be included in the squad for the upcoming match against Leicester City. However, given his time out, he might begin on the bench as he builds up match sharpness.
For FPL players, Alexander-Arnold remains a top-tier option, with 40 points in his four matches prior to injury. Keep an eye on Liverpool’s lineup announcement to determine if he’s ready to start.
Justin Kluivert (Bournemouth)
Kluivert has been a standout performer in recent weeks, earning 43 points across three gameweeks, including a huge 22-point haul against Newcastle. His price has jumped to £5.8m due to his red-hot form. That said, Bournemouth’s next match is against Liverpool — a tough test that might limit his returns in the short term.
Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest)
Chris Wood has seen his stock fall in recent matches. After a brief scoring burst that netted him 23 points in two games, he failed to produce against Bournemouth, and his value has dropped to £7.0m. With difficult fixtures on the horizon against Arsenal and Manchester City, FPL managers may want to explore other options up front.
