Impact Tielemans was one of Leicester's main players again, starting in 33 of his 37 appearances between Premier League and Europa League.

Playing in finale Tielemans (knee) will be in the starting XI against Southampton on Sunday.
Impact Tielemans returns having missed just one match due to his knee injury. Prior to getting hurt, the midfielder recorded two assists, seven shots (one on target) and eight crosses (two accurate) in his previous five outings (four starts). Given his ability to push the attack, Tielemans should be considered a top-half fantasy target heading into the last match of the year.

Impact Unless his issue doesn't get better, it's expected Tielemans will be back in the starting XI for Sunday's finale. He often plays through minor knocks and there was no reason to push him on a short week at Chelsea. He'll look to close the season in good form, adding to his six goals and four assists.

Doubt for Thursday Tielemans is dealing with a knee knock and is a doubt for Thursday's trip to Chelsea, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.
Impact Tielemans is unlikely to be risked Thursday if he's not 100 percent, especially with the finale only a few days later. Leicester have nothing to play for and while Tielemans is a regular in the squad, it's possible Boubakary Soumare returns to the XI in a difficult spot.

Assists in rout Tielemans provided one assist on two chances created during Sunday's 5-1 win over Watford.
Impact Tielemans earned his fourth assist of the season to match his tally from 2020/21. The midfielder hasn't been a major fantasy option due to his role in defensive midfield, but has produced a solid 10 goal contributions. Tielemans will be tested heavily against Chelsea on Thursday in the penultimate match of the campaign.

Takes four shots in win Tielemans took four shots and created two chances in Wednesday's 3-0 victory against Norwich City. He also made an interception and won three of five tackles in the match.
Impact Tielemans was dangerous as usual going forward against Norwich, and he now has a combined seven shots and three chances created across his last two games. He will want to extend that form into Sunday's clash against Watford, which have conceded 70 goals in 36 matches this season.
MAY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
One assist off bench Tielemans logged one assist across 14 minutes during a 3-1 loss Sunday against Tottenham Hotspur.
Impact Tielemans has four assists across the Foxes' ongoing Premiership campaign. They have a UEFA Europa Conference League semi-final game Thursday against Roma, so his fantasy managers should not worry that he received less playing time than usual.
