Makes four interceptions in loss Lindelof made three clearances, four interceptions and won one of one tackles in last weekend's 1-0 defeat against Crystal Palace.

Impact Lindelof kept five clean sheets and recorded two assists in 28 Premier League appearances (26 starts) this campaign, as injuries to Raphael Varane meant that Lindelof got a lot more playing time than many perhaps would have expected. The 27-year-old is still the third-choice center back behind Varane and Harry Maguire heading into next season, however.

Goes full 90 in Cup win Lindelof (COVID-19) started and secured a clean sheet in Monday's 1-0 win against Aston Villa in the FA Cup.

Tests positive for COVID-19 Lindelof tested positive for COVID-19 and will likely miss Thursday's match against Burnley in addition to Monday's draw against Newcastle.

Impact Lindelof dealt with a chest issue a few weeks ago, so testing positive for COVID-19 isn't a good thing. His return will depend on when he tested positive, as he could be back either Monday against Wolves or he'll have to wait for the team's mid-week January match.

Impact Lindelof has avoided missing any games since the club was last in action Dec. 1 versus Norwich City thanks to several postponements. When healthy, the defender has been a lock for the starting XI, featuring in all but one of his 17 appearances for the club this year. Still, given Lindelof's limited offensive upside, he has just one shot (on target) this season, he shouldn't be expected to offer more than mid-range fantasy value.
