ERIC DIER NEWS

In contention against Man City Dier (thigh) will be an option versus Manchester City on Saturday. Manager Antonio Conte told reporters, "Eric Dier is available."

Impact Dier will be back in action after playing in just one of the club's last four contests due to his lingering thigh problem. Considering the central defender has started all 20 of his appearances for the club this year, fantasy players can likely expect him to get back onto the pitch for kickoff Saturday.

Impact Dier has been out for a little more than a week with the injury and missed the second leg against Chelsea. It doesn't look like he'll be able to return unless Conte is forgetting about the defender.

Logs four clearances Dier recorded four clearances and two blocks during a 1-0 win Sunday versus Watford.

Impact Dier recorded 16 clearances across three Premier League appearances during August. Considering the Spurs maintained a clean sheet each game, he is expected to remain one of their new manager Nuno Espirito Santo's primary center-backs this year.

Makes 28 starts Dier made 28 starts during the 2020/21 Premier League season.

Impact Dier made the most starts of any center-back for Spurs and received credit for nine of the team's 12 clean sheets kept this season. In a season where his clearances (122) were much higher than his tackles (23) or interceptions (22), Dier's value isn't the most trustworthy for upper-level defensive production in fantasy.
