Impact Grbic has now mounted 18 saves with eight goals allowed over his past eight matches and given he's merely kept one clean sheet in that span he has been underperforming in most fantasy formats of late.

Ivo Grbic - Makes four saves in 3-1 victory Grbic made four saves in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Lorient.
Reinildo Mandava - Heads one home in 3-1 win Mandava scored on two shots (one on target) and added two crosses (none accurate), three interceptions, three fouls drawn and team-high 81 passes completed in Wednesday's 3-1 win o...
Impact Mandava delivered a stellar all around performance and was a serious threat going forward. His ruthless header all but sealed the deal for his team with the third goal of the night early in the game. That was his first major offensive contribution of the campaign but he's taken six shots over his past seven starts. He's also produced impressive defensive peripheral numbers on consistent basis.

Botman Sven - Wins three aerials in 3-1 victory Botman had one shot (off target), three aerials won, two tackles (one won), two blocked shots, four clearances and 78 passes completed in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Lorient.
Impact Botman turned in a fantastic all around display and a stat output and the only thing missing for the perfect fantasy day was the clean sheet. He's been superb since his return from an injury in December and has been a massive fantasy producer with one goal, one assist and one clean sheet from his previous three matches.

Renato Sanches - Shines with assist in 3-1 victory Sanches tallied one assist, four chances created, four crosses (all accurate), four dribbles and two corners in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Lorient.
Impact Sanches was absolutely brilliant here and delivered another impressive display within a matter of days. He's off to a lava hot start of 2022 with two assists on six chances created and six crosses already in just two affairs and could be one to look at as a good addition to your roster moving forward.
JANUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Isaac Lihadji - Stars with goal in first start Lihadji scored on his lone shot and added one chance created and two fouls drawn in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Lorient.
Impact Lihadji was very impressive in his first start of the season and the highlight of his night was a fantastic goal to open his Ligue 1 account. The youngster has now mounted one goal and one assist over his past three appearances (one start) and with the departure of Jonathan Ikone he may gain a far more prominent role for the rest of the season.
JANUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Bamba - Quiet in win midweek Bamba had one shot (on target), one chance created and one dribble in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Lorient.
Impact Bamba was pretty quiet yet again and he's now barely delivered anything, statistically, in his two matches in 2022. Another one is quickly coming up this weekend but with just one assist and no goals all season it'll be hard to trust him to get his big break exactly now.
JANUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Burak Yilmaz - Takes five shots versus Lorient Yilmaz had five shots (one on target), two crosses (none accurate), two aerials won and two fouls drawn in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Lorient.
Impact Yilmaz turned in another very active display that never really fully realized its potential. It's been that kind of an year for him the effort and the running in his legs are always there but he just hasn't had his magical touch from last season.
JANUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan David - Quiet in win over Lorient David had one shot (off target), two dribbles and one chance created in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Lorient.
Impact David had a quiet one here despite Lille's domination and has now scored just once in last four matches. The forward had back to back poor statistical outputs and doesn't seem to have arrived in 2022 just yet. With 15 scores across all competitions this season already though he could probably afford some downtime.
JANUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Tim Weah - Returns off bench Wednesday Weah played 22 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Lorient.
Impact With Jonathan Ikone out of the club and Weah now back healthy the latter should take on even bigger role on the wing than earlier in the season and his fantasy upside could spike rapidly. He may be a prime candidate to start as soon as this weekend even.

Benjamin Andre - Available for Brest match Andre (suspension) is available for Saturday's match versus Brest.
Impact Andre is right back after purging his suspension midweek. He's been an offensive force of late with one goal on four shots and one assist on three chances created over his past four full matches and remains a great defensive contributor as well with 20 tackles, 13 interceptions and nine fouls drawn over the last six affairs.

Tim Weah - Could feature versus Lorient Weah (quad) was named in the 20-man squad for Wednesday's match versus Lorient.
Impact Weah has been sidelined since early November and given he's missed more than a month now the winger will likely be eased off the bench in his return which will keep his upside fairly limited.

Reinildo Mandava - Fills stat sheet in draw Mandawa made three tackles (one won), seven clearances, four interceptions and two blocks during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Marseille.
Impact Mandawa had another great defensive performance, filling the stat sheet and being a huge reason why his side conceded just one goal despite playing for about an hour with one man down. The left back has been one of the Ligue 1's best at his position this season and will try to remain productive during Wednesday's home match against Lorient.

Benjamin Andre - Gets sent off versus Marseille Andre was sent off during the first half of Sunday's 1-1 draw against Marseille.
Impact Andre picked up his second yellow card in just 32 minutes, which led his side to play with one man down for about an hour. The midfielder will be suspended for Wednesday's clash against Lorient.
JANUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ivo Grbic - Makes five saves in draw Grbic made five saves and conceded one goal during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Marseille.
Impact Grbic had his hands full here, specially because his side had to play with 10 men for about an hour. The goalkeeper still looked on his way to a clean sheet, but then Cengiz Under ruined his plans with a stunning curly shot from just inside the box in the 75th minute. Grbic is having nice performances this season, but the recent lack of clean sheets diminishes his fantasy upside. Up next for him is Wednesday's home match against Lorient.
JANUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Renato Sanches - Provides assist in draw Sanches made an assist, had one off-target shot, created two chances and sent in two crosses (both accurate) during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Marseille.
Impact Sanches took the corner kick that was headed home by Sven Botman in the 15th minute and would've been credited with another assist if it the wasn't the miracle save made by the opposing goalkeeper to deny Burak Yilmaz header from the six-yard box. The midfielder couldn't keep the strong play though, mostly because his side had to play with one man down for about an hour. Up next for Sanches is Wednesday's home match against Lorient.
JANUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Botman Sven - Scores, shines defensively in draw Botman scored a goal off his lone shot and made 12 clearances and three blocks during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Marseille.
Impact Botman displayed once again his aerial prowess, scoring the opening goal of the match with a powerful header off a corner kick in the 15th minute and then racking up a season-high 12 clearances to help his side escaping with at least one point despite playing the entire second half with one man down. Botman shows every game why he's considered one of Europe's best young centre backs and he'll try to keep it up during Wednesday's home match against Lorient.
