GAME LOG

Scores, assists in win Xhaka scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) and logged one assist from two chances created during Saturday's 4-2 win over Leicester City.
Impact Xhaka is already two-thirds of the way to matching his goal and assist total from each of the last three seasons. As this game came against a defensively-weak opponent, Xhaka isn't going to be able to produce this performance each week. As long as he remains a physical defensive-midfielder, bookings will continue to diminish his value as well.

Concedes yellow card in win Xhaka conceded a yellow card and made two interceptions during Friday's 2-0 win over Crystal Palace.
Impact Xhaka also created one chance and drew four fouls in this game. As one who's no stranger to the referee's ire, Xhaka is always a trouble spot on the pitch and in fantasy, even if his abilities have improved enough to make him a near-lock to start each week. Still, he's required to focus on the defensive work and this will prevent him from achieving the same heights that Martin Odegaard could reach.

Scores only once in 2021-22 Xhaka completed the 2021-22 campaign with one goal and two assists after starting and playing 63 minutes in their 5-1 win over Everton in the season finale.
Impact Xhaka had another modest season stats-wise, as he does not scored more than once or assist more than twice since the 2018-19 campaign. The midfielder also logged 27 shots, 32 chances created, 25 crosses, 32 tackles, 28 clearances and 10 yellow cards in 27 appearances (27 starts).

Finds rare assist Xhaka provided one assist on one chance created during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Brighton.
Impact Xhaka found a rare assist during Saturday's match, only his second assist of the season. The midfielder did well to get forward, lining up out of position at left-back. Xhaka is a minor fantasy option, but he has slightly more value at left-back moving forward for Saturday's trip to Southampton.

League Cup: Arsenal earns 0-0 at Liverpool despite Xhaka red

Liverpool failed to take advantage of Granit Xhaka’s 24th-minute red card and was held to a 0-0 draw by Arsenal in the first leg of the English League Cup semifinals
JANUARY 13, 2022
Sent off against Liverpool Xhaka was sent off with a straight red card in the first half of Thursday's Cup semifinal against Liverpool.
Impact It's the second red card of the season for Xhaka, which means this could be a longer suspension. For now, the belief is that he'll be given a three-game ban, keeping him out the next two league matches as well as the second leg against Liverpool. Unfortunately for Arsenal, they are short on options in the midfield and youngster Charlie Patino may be asked to start again.
JANUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Expected to return for Cup match Xhaka is expected to return from COVID-19 ahead of Thursday's Cup match against Liverpool, according to manager Mikel Arteta.
Impact Even if Xhaka isn't ready to start Thursday, he'll have enough time to get back his fitness for Sunday's trip to Tottenham. It's a busy week for Arsenal and they'll need all bodies on deck for two huge matchups. Xhaka likely tested positive for COVID-19 last week, which is why he's available again.
