Impact Schar managed to have better numbers than the ones he did on the previous outing but then he was very unfortunate when try to cut a pass from the left flank, as the ball went off his leg into his own net for what was Arsenal's second goal in the 71st minute.

Named to starting XI Schar (hamstring) will play in Thursday's matchup with Everton.

Impact Schar was forced off in the 74th minute versus Tottenham on Sunday due to his hamstring problem. It was the first time in seven consecutive starts that Schar didn't go the full 90, so fantasy players should be able to count on him closing out the match, barring any lingering injury concerns.

Late test Thursday Schar (hamstring) is considered a late call for Thursday's trip to Everton, according to manager Eddie Howe.

Impact This isn't too surprising, as Schar only made it 74 minutes in Sunday's win against Tottenham. On a short week, there's no reason to push Schar into the XI again, especially with a muscle issue. Jamaal Lascelles has performed well when given the chance this season and seems likely to get another call against Everton.

In doubt against Toffees Schar (hamstring) will be re-evaluated prior to Thursday's clash with Everton. Schar told reporters, "An assessment [Monday]. I don't think it's bad, just a hamstring I felt but we...

Impact Schar had gone the full 90 minutes in 14 straight appearances before being forced off versus Spurs on Sunday due to his hamstring issue. The central defender didn't seem too worried but with the quick turnaround ahead of Thursday's match, it may force Schar to sit out just the second time since the World Cup. If Schar can't play versus Everton, Jamaal Lascelles could be in line to feature in the starting XI.

In lineup against Forest Schar (foot) is in the lineup for Friday's match against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Schar has started nine of Newcastle's last 10 Premier League games since the World Cup, missing out only against Manchester City at the beginning of March due to a head injury, but he is withdrawing from the Swiss National Team's upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers in March while he deals with foot pain. It is unclear whether this will affect his availability for Friday's Premier League match against Nottingham Forest, though he was pictured in training with his teammates on Friday. Jamaal Lascelles could be the backup option in central defense if necessary.

Expected to play Sunday Schar (concussion) has been training and is expected to be an option Sunday against Wolves, according to manager Eddie Howe.

Impact It sounds like Schar went through concussion protocol and had to miss last week's Man City match, but he's back and ready to start again. While Jamaal Lascelles was solid last week, Schar is still the top center-back on the team, starting 22 of a possible 24 league matches.

Impact Schar was dominant as usual on defense, even matching his season high in clearances, while also being a threat on the offensive end as his side usually has open-play and set-pieces crosses as one of their biggest weapons. The center-back is currently among the top 10 EPL players in both clearances and interceptions, being one of the safest fantasy picks at his position.

Impact Schar was forced off early against Aston Villa on Saturday but seems no worse for the wear. With the defender fit, he should reclaim his place in the starting XI considering he has featured in all but one of the club's 13 matches this season. Despite being a fixture in the starting XI, Schar won't offer more than mid-range fantasy value except in formats that value defensive stats.

NOVEMBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Comes off injured against Villa Schar was subbed out of Saturday's victory against Aston Villa in the 83rd minute after suffering a hamstring injury, manager Eddie Howe announced after the game.
