One-stop Kop: Supercoach EPL, everything you need to know Gameweek 31


<p>After so much discourse, analysis, and preparation for blank gameweek 31, it is finally here!!!</p>



<p>But before we get into that, a quick recap of gameweek 30, which was a lower-scoring round around the grounds.</p>



<p><strong>Bruno Fernandes</strong> led the way again, picking up two assists for a big 19 points, rewarding all those who captained.</p>



<p>Closely behind was<strong> Szoboszlai</strong>, who scored another free-kick in an otherwise disappointing outing for Liverpool Supercoach assets.</p>



<p><strong>Igor Thiago</strong> netted his 19th goal of the season, continuing his hot form and bid to be a must-have for the coming weeks.</p>



<p>Those who bit the bullet and traded out <strong>Haaland </strong>would have been left delighted with his dud 3-pointer.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>EPL GAMEWEEK 31 PREVIEW</strong></h3>



<p>Gameweek 31 kicks off at <strong>7:00am AEDT, Saturday, the 21st of March,</strong> with Bournemouth hosting Manchester United.</p>



<p>I sound like a broken record at this point, but this will be the last time I mention it. </p>



<p>This week is a blank gameweek, with Arsenal, Manchester City, Crystal Palace, and Wolves all not playing.</p>



<p>This leaves us with just 8 Premier League games for the weekend, and will likely leave many managers scrambling to field a full side.</p>



<p>There are no obvious games to target from a Supercoach perspective, but Fulham vs Burnley and Newcastle vs Sunderland appear to have the most one-sided potential.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>KEY AVAILABILITY WATCH</strong></h3>



<p><strong>Jurrien Timber (ARS):</strong> Was subbed off in the first half vs Everton; however, expected to be back ahead of Arsenal&#8217;s next Premier League fixture</p>



<p><strong>Matty Cash (ASV): </strong>Progressing well in recovery, in contention to return this weekend</p>



<p><strong>Mikkel Damsgaard (BRE): </strong>Has been playing through knee pain after a knock a few games back, in doubt for this weekend&#8217;s game</p>



<p><strong>Reece James (CHE):</strong> Felt a hamstring injury after Newcastle game, and although nothing has been confirmed, expected to miss some time</p>



<p><strong>Trevoh Chalobah (CHE):</strong> Suffered an ugly ankle injury vs PSG, but since been confirmed to be not as bad as first thought, still likely to miss some time</p>



<p><strong>James Tarkowski (EVT): </strong>Everyone seems to be in the blue here, with not much being disclosed from the club, in doubt for this weekend</p>



<p><strong><strong>Nordi Mukiele</strong> (SUN):</strong> In contention to play this weekend, but manager&#8217;s comments hint that he will not play </p>



<p><strong><strong>Robin Roefs</strong> (SUN)</strong>: In continuation to play this weekend, keep an eye on further updates</p>



<p><strong><strong>Daniel Ballard</strong> (SUN)</strong>: Suffered a hamstring issue and is unlikely to play this weekend vs Newcastle.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>EPL SUPERCOACH BREAKEVENS</strong></h3>



<p>Breakevens are the score required for the player to either make money or lose money.</p>



<p>When looking at who to trade in this week, heavily consider the players with low breakevens, as they will help make your team money.</p>



<p>Similarly, if you have some players with high breakevens in your team, maybe it’s time to consider cutting ties to ensure your team doesn’t lose too much value.</p>
