Official FPL status, match record and listed set-piece order

Ballard's 0.0-point forecast is being held down by the current availability flag. A training return or manager update matters more than the flag colour itself.

30,803 net transfers out has pushed the market away from Ballard. For an owner, the useful question is whether 5 starts and 0.47 xGI support holding through the crowd movement.

Away at Bournemouth is an FDR 3 fixture that puts the focus on clean-sheet floor and attacking involvement. The model lands on 0.0 points; use that as a one-week baseline, not the whole transfer case.
