Impact Schar was forced off early against Aston Villa on Saturday but seems no worse for the wear. With the defender fit, he should reclaim his place in the starting XI considering he has featured in all but one of the club's 13 matches this season. Despite being a fixture in the starting XI, Schar won't offer more than mid-range fantasy value except in formats that value defensive stats.

Cracks four shots in draw Schar played four shots (one on target), made three clearances, one tackle and a cross as Newcastle shared the honors with Bournemouth in a 1-1 result on Saturday.
Impact Schar created a series of attacking moves for his team and demonstrated, through his contribution to both defensive plays and shots on goal, that he is a versatile center back. He is a player that should be providing more assists but he has been let down by the poor goal scoring execution of his receiving attackers. From six appearances (all starts) he has scored once and contributed to three clean sheets.

Finishes injury-plagued campaign Schar scored two goals, provided two assists and made 95 clearances over 25 appearances (all starts) during this past season.
Impact Schar missed nine of Newcastle's first 11 matches and then three out of the last five due to injuries, but was mostly great when able to play and even better after his side had some reinforcements coming for the final half of the campaign. Centre back will certainly be a position where the Magpies will have at least one high-profile name for next season but Schar will still likely be one of his side's defensive leaders.

Impact Schar suffered a concussion Monday, so he'll have just under a week to pass protocols and be an option again. His status is dependent on if he passes protocols or not, so he's truly a doubt to feature. If he can't go again, Jamaal Lascelles would be set for another start alongside Dan Burn at center-back.

With less than a week before the finale, there's a chance he'll miss Sunday's match if he indeed suffered a concussion with Jamaal Lascelles likely to take his spot.

Impact Schar limped off, which could imply a muscle injury, which could also be the end of his season if that's the case.

This doesn't sound like something to worry about, as Switzerland only have a couple friendlies over the break. He'll have a week of close to full rest before the next match and for now, he expects to be ready.
