            <p>Is <strong>Alexander Isak </strong>a good buy following <strong>Hugo Ekitike</strong>'s suspension? Which chip should you play this week? And is <strong>Erling Haaland's</strong> injury flag enough to change plans?</p>
<p>FPL content creator and pundit Holly Shand covers the key Gameweek 6 dilemmas to help Fantasy Football Hub members with their decision-making as Saturday's deadline approaches (September 27).</p>

<h2>Is Alexander Isak a good buy? How would chip use influence this decision?</h2>
<p>In my opinion, absolutely! We knew the time was coming soon for Isak to get his run in the Liverpool side as their number nine and now it looks guaranteed ahead of the trip to Crystal Palace in Gameweek 6.</p>
<p>With Ekitike out of the equation this week, <strong>Florian Wirtz</strong> benched last time and <strong>Mohamed Salah's</strong> underlying numbers failing to impress, Isak might now become the best route into their attack.</p>
<p>He comes in at a tricky price point of £10.5m and with Haaland also competing for our attention, he might not be a priority transfer ahead of Gameweek 6.</p>
<p>But for those managers toying with playing Wildcard or Free Hit this week, he becomes a highly credible inclusion.</p>
<p>The downside is that Crystal Palace are the only other side unbeaten so far though - and he doesn't come without risk given the potential for eventual rotation with Ekitike - but those buying him on Wildcard will be hoping he gets plenty of minutes from now on.</p>

<h2>What chips are good to use this week?</h2>
<p>Most chips are on the table to use this week with the fixture swing for Manchester City and the potential of Haaland in the home game against Burnley.</p>
<p>Chips are generally team dependent but if you want to transfer Haaland in this week and have a number of players looking like they should be on the sell list, this is a good time to activate the Wildcard.</p>
<p>Alternatively, with Haaland predicted by Hub AI to score 8.4 points in this fixture, it's a clear opportunity to play the Triple Captain, especially given his rest in the Carabao Cup in midweek.</p>
<p>If you have already played the Wildcard and don't own Haaland, Free Hit may be the best route to owning the City striker this week.</p>
<p>However, looking at City's longer-term schedule, it's likely you'll want to own their players for the foreseeable future, making free transfers the more sustainable route.</p>

<h2>Is Haaland's injury flag enough to change plans?</h2>
<p>I'll admit that seeing the yellow flag next to Erling Haaland's name on the FPL website is a little jarring, especially since I moved early to transfer him in on Sunday night to beat the <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fantasy-premier-league-price-rises">price rise</a>.</p>
<p>He was substituted early in the 1-0 win against Arsenal, with manager Pep Guardiola saying in his post-match press conference that Haaland had asked to be substituted and was exhausted.</p>
