Chelsea legend John Terry makes Arsenal PL title prediction after Manchester City's draw against Nottingham Forest Chelsea legend John Terry believes Arsenal have all but sealed the Premier League title after Manchester City slipped up against Nottingham Forest.
MARCH 5 SPORTSKEEDA.COM
Declan Rice - Poor in service Rice registered six crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Wednesday's 1-0 win against Brighton.
Impact Rice's crossing volume was typical but his accuracy was not there. He's probably not going to play Saturday in the FA Cup game to keep him fresh for the UCL clash against Bayer Leverkusen, and he'll need to be on point for that contest. Leverkusen has allowed just 29 goals in 24 league games, though they did concede 14 goals in eight UCL group stage games.

Jurrien Timber - Tallies assist Timber assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Wednesday's 1-0 victory over Brighton.
Impact The defender has been good whenever he gets involved in the attack, setting up Bukayo Saka for the game's only goal. Timber is probably going to be rested Saturday and will likely return to the pitch in UCL play against Bayer Leverkusen.

Bukayo Saka - Finds another goal Saka scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Wednesday's 1-0 win against Brighton.
Impact Saka now has two goals in his last four EPL games after struggling for much of the middle of the campaign in that department. He's likely going to be on the bench for the FA Cup game, which means his next action probably comes in UCL play against Bayer Leverkusen. Leverkusen did give up 14 goals in eight UCL group phase games.
MARCH 5 ROTOWIRE
David Raya - Keeps clean sheet David Raya registered two saves and allowed zero goals in Wednesday's 1-0 victory versus Brighton.
Impact After some rough patches of late, Raya had an important clean sheet to get Arsenal back to winning ways and open up a bigger gap at the top of the table. We'll see if Raya gets a breather for Saturday's FA Cup game and if he does, his next start likely comes in UCL action against a Bayer Leverkusen team which was second in the Bundesliga a season ago behind an attack which put in 72 goals in 34 league games.
MARCH 5 ROTOWIRE
Yankuba Minteh - Flurry of service off the bench Minteh recorded eight crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to Arsenal.
Impact Minteh was brought on to add some flair to the Brighton attack and unfortunately, most of his crosses couldn't find a teammate. He should have more luck against Sunderland as the side has started to fade a bit of late, though his poor display against Arsenal might translate to less playing time.
MARCH 5 ROTOWIRE
Ferdi Kadioglu - Poor in service Kadioglu registered six crosses (zero accurate) and three clearances in Wednesday's 1-0 loss against Arsenal. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 82nd minute.
Impact Kadioglu didn't have a single accurate cross on the day and he didn't contribute much else offensively. He should be able to rectify that against Sunderland, a team which started well defensively but has given up nine goals over its last five EPL games.
