Olsson (achilles) is expected to miss this Saturday's game against Crystal Palace, manager Alan Irvine told the Express & Star.
Olsson (achilles) has been troubled by the problem for a number of years and the latest flare up could mean time for surgery. “It's been something that has been bothering him for some considerable time," manager Alan Irvine said. “He has had an injection, and if you can imagine getting an injection in your Achilles, it's not nice. He's in a bit of discomfort still." Olsson has been displaced from the side by the central defensive duo of Joleon Lescott and Craig Dawson and would only make the bench if he was fit.

Like most defenders, Olsson's fantasy value is primarily derived from clean sheets, something he's managed to do just twice in 2014.

Olsson picked up a yellow card in Saturday's win at Swansea, his 10th of the season. He will now miss the next two matches and be available again on April 5 against Norwich City.
Olsson will miss a match at Hull City and then a home game against Cardiff City, two solid opportunities for clean sheets. Outside of that, he is not much of a fantasy producer.
