Marcus Tavernier, cooled off

His card is not burning this gameweek: Marcus Tavernier is on a form of 5.2, and other players are ahead of him. That is worth knowing rather than hiding, and the rest of the page is the same either way: whether he starts, whether he is fit, what he costs, and what the next fixture looks like. Numbers as of 2026-09-24.

Availability

Will Marcus Tavernier start?

  • No flag against him in the FPL data
  • Started 5 of the 5 gameweeks played so far, 424 minutes in total

Nobody outside the club knows a line-up before it is announced, so the honest version is what the data shows: whether he carries a flag, how often he has started, and how many minutes he has actually played. Marcus Tavernier has started every appearance so far, which is the strongest available signal short of team news.

Is Marcus Tavernier injured?

No injury designation against Marcus Tavernier in the Fantasy Premier League data as of 2026-09-24, and no official note attached to him. In DraftIcon a flagged player carries the warning on the card, and anyone ruled out is not offered in packs at all, so you cannot draft a player who will not play.

Injury notes change during the week, usually after a press conference. This page is rebuilt from data rather than from reporting, so treat it as the state at the time above and check the club before a deadline.

The verdict, with its limits

Is Marcus Tavernier worth owning?

In a season-long game that question means committing a squad slot for weeks, and it deserves more than a form number. What the data supports is narrow and worth stating exactly: he is 5.2 on form, costs £6.1m, and the official projection for the coming gameweek is 5.2 points. Everything past that is judgement, including ours.

The question that matters

Will the form hold against CHE?

Next up: away at CHE, rated difficulty 4 of 5. That opponent is a strong defence against the position, and it is where a hot card turns into a trap. The form is real, the fixture is not, and form against the wrong opponent is the most expensive pick in the game.

The record behind the number

Marcus Tavernier form and points this season

Points in each gameweek so far. This is what the form value is made of, rather than a number you have to take on trust: one big haul and two quiet weeks read very differently from three steady returns, even when the average is identical.

The next 5 matches with the difficulty the Premier League itself assigns to each one. A single easy opponent is worth less than a run of them, which is the whole argument for looking past the next gameweek.

How to play it

What Marcus Tavernier is worth in a draft

You do not buy Marcus Tavernier in DraftIcon PL, you hope he is dealt to you. He is a midfielder in the Icon tier of the pool, and his card is not burning this gameweek. He next faces CHE away, a strong defence.

How the burning works, and what it is worth against a hard fixture, is on the gameweek hot cards page rather than repeated here.

Ten hot cards. One gameweek.
