RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Yacob received a red card just 28 minutes into Saturday's 2-0 loss to Chelsea.
Yacob made a reckless two-footed lunge on Chelsea striker Diego Costa and picked up a straight red card as a result. Yacob's dismissal had little effect on the result as West Brom were already two goals behind following strikes from Costa and Eden Hazard. The Argentinean midfielder was making his first start of the season and will now be unavailable for at least one game.

Yacob made his return to first team action in Saturday's 1-0 win at Leicester City.
Yacob replaced Stephane Sessegnon in the 81st minute after missing two weeks due to a family emergency back home in Argentina. The central midfielder has yet to start a game this campaign and is a weak fantasy option given his defensive play.

Yacob has yet to return from Argentina where he is dealing with a family emergency, manager Alan Irvine told the Express & Star.
Yacob returned home prior to Monday's game against Manchester United and won't be back for Saturday's fixture with Crystal Palace. He's not going to be back before this game. We are in contact with him as much as we can whilst being compassionate as well, manager Alan Irvine said. Yacob has yet to start a game so far this campaign therefore the news won't have much impact for fantasy managers.
