As we enter the latter stages of the season, Fantasy Premier League managers must consider the absence of players in their squads through suspension.
Players who accumulate 10 yellow cards in Premier League matches up to and including their team's 32nd fixture will serve a two-match ban in the competition.
Players who will miss GW32
Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.3m) will miss Everton's trip to Crystal Palace as he completes his three-match suspension. Doucoure was shown a red card for violent conduct in Everton's 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur in Gameweek 29.
Also sent off in the same match, Lucas Moura (£5.8m) serves the final game of his three-match ban. He won't feature for Spurs at Newcastle United.
Aleksandar Mitrovic (£6.6m) is three games into the eight-match suspension he received following Fulham's FA Cup defeat to Manchester United. Unlike yellow cards, red cards are carried over from the domestic cup competitions.
He is out of the home meeting with Leeds and won't be available until Gameweek 37.
Players close to suspension
Ivan Toney (£7.7m) is on nine yellow cards and with Brentford having completed 31 fixtures, he has just one match to navigate before the suspension threshold increases to 15 yellow cards.
Meanwhile James Maddison (£8.1m) is no longer at risk of an immediate suspension. Maddison is on eight yellows but, like Brentford, Leicester City have played 31 matches.
