RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Oscar tallied an assist in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Swansea City.
After an excellent season during Chelsea's title run in 2014-15, his influence waned from the side last year as he tallied just three goals and three assists in 27 Premier League matches last season. With a bevy of options in the midfield, Oscar needed a performance like Sunday to help hold off the out-of-favor Cesc Fabregas from entering the starting XI. Without a European campaign to crowd the fixtures list, it also means new manager Antonio Conte will be free to stick with a preferred XI with little way to break back in if one falls out of favor.

Oscar: Past News Updates ( ▲ View most recent update )
April 2, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Oscar came off the bench in Saturday's 4-0 win at Aston Villa, but still managed an assist right out of the break.
Much like his teammates, it hasn't been a great season for Oscar, who still only has three goals and four assists on the campaign. With inconsistent playing time, his fantasy value isn't very high.
February 16, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Oscar (calf) is available off the bench for Tuesday's Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain.
Oscar was iffy for the match after missing last weekend's Premier League fixture, and while it's a plus he's fit to make Tuesday's squad, his fantasy value is limited as a reserve.
February 15, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Oscar is traveling with the team for Tuesday's Champions League match against PSG after sitting out last weekend's Premier League match against Newcastle because of a calf injury.
Pedro scored twice on the weekend, which should be enough for manager Guus Hiddink to give him a start ahead of Oscar, with Eden Hazard and Willian also likely to start.
January 16, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Oscar tallied an assist as a substitute in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Everton.
Oscar came on in favor of Nemanja Matic in the 55th minute so Chelsea could find the equalizing goal. A minute later, the deficit doubled. In the 98th minute, Oscar's head played the ball to the foot of John Terry, who put just enough on the ball to get it past Tim Howard to secure a point. After eight starts in a row, Oscar came off the bench for the third time this season. With Cesc Fabregas looking like the Fabregas of old, Oscar may find himself outside the starting XI with regularity.
January 13, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Oscar (toe) is starting Wednesday against West Brom.
Oscar played only 45 minutes during Sunday's FA Cup match due to inflammation in his toe, but he'll slot right back into the starting XI, with Eden Hazard (hip) still sidelined.
January 11, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Oscar's availability for the Wednesday fixture with West Brom is in question as he continues to recover from a toe injury.
The Brazilian has reportedly been dealing with inflammation in his toe of late, and he was replaced at the half during Sunday's FA Cup match versus Scunthorpe. Oscar will likely be assessed as kickoff for Wednesday's match approaches, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Pedro the likely candidates to enter the starting XI if he is forced to sit out.
January 3, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Oscar scored a goal on two shots (one on target) and tallied an assist in Sunday's 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace.
The Brazilian has been inconsistent all season, but scored his second goal in the past four matches on Sunday in a comfortable victory. He's up to three goals and an assist on the season in 14 Premier League matches, but seems to be turning a corner along with the rest of his Chelsea teammates as they enter the second half of the season.
