Deemed fit for Hammers clash Andersen (hamstring) will be available to face West Ham United on Saturday. Manager Roy Hodgson told reporters, "He's okay. [Will he be in the squad?] Yes."

Impact Andersen has started all 27 of his appearances for the club this season, so if he is fully fit he should be a near-lock to feature against the Hammers. Given his limited offensive upside, the central defender will likely be hard-pressed to provide more than mid-range fantasy value except in formats that heavily rely on defensive stats.
