Premier League managers delivered injury updates ahead of a packed fixture list. West Ham confirmed Lucas Paqueta will miss the Sunderland clash amid transfer rumours, while Burnley's Joe Worrall could return. Tottenham faces a crisis with up to eight players sidelined, including Lucas Bergvall's three-month ankle injury.

Fantasy Premier League managers have key decisions. West Ham's Crysencio Summerville, fresh from scoring against Spurs, is a popular pick. For Tottenham, Cristian Romero remains a top defensive option despite the team's struggles. Burnley's Martin Dubravka offers budget goalkeeping value, and Fulham's Harry Wilson leads all midfielders in points since Gameweek 13.

The weekend's headline clash sees Arsenal host Manchester United. The Gunners' Gabriel is the league's top-scoring defender, while United's Bruno Fernandes, the most-bought FPL asset, creates the most chances. With key players returning from the Africa Cup of Nations, teams like Brentford and Sunderland could see their lineups shift significantly.
