"A midweek round of games heading into the Christmas period brings issues for FPL managers. Injuries to key players - such as Crystal Palace's Ismaila Sarr - rotation and a lack of information from managers, with many news conferences taking place after Tuesday's 18:00 GMT deadline. The solution? Trust players with high expected minutes while trying your best to avoid taking points hits. Might be easier said than done."

Midweek fixtures during the Christmas period create selection challenges due to injuries, rotation and late manager news after the Tuesday 18:00 GMT deadline. Absences such as Crystal Palace's Ismaila Sarr increase uncertainty for squads. The advised approach is to prioritise players with high expected minutes and minimise points-hit transfers. The team of the week is chosen to fit a 100m Free Hit budget. Phil Foden, Igor Thiago and Dango Ouattara produced big scores for a 60-point week. Specific picks highlighted include Matz Sels, Daniel Munoz, Trevoh Chalobah and Virgil van Dijk based on form, minutes and fixtures.
