<h2>Will Haaland be rested against Luton in FPL Gameweek 33?</h2>
<p>Last week, we highlighted <strong>Erling Haaland's </strong><a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-headaches-gameweek-32">underwhelming form</a>, with two goals in seven games and a benching against Aston Villa.</p>
<p>The Manchester City striker eased concerns slightly by scoring against Crystal Palace in Gameweek 32, although owners will have been hoping for more.</p>
<p>We advised caution in losing patience with the league's top scorer, particularly as City host Luton in Gameweek 33.</p>
<p>But the Haaland headache this weekend is whether to <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/the-best-fpl-captain">captain</a> him - and how much of the game he will play.</p>

<p>City have a tough test against Real Madrid in their Champions League quarter-final. The first and second legs come a few days either side of the Luton game.</p>
<p>Pep Guardiola could rotate his squad in the league, just as he did with Haaland and <strong>Kevin De Bruyne (£10.3m) </strong>in Gameweek 31 and <strong>Phil Foden (£8.1m) </strong>in Gameweek 32.</p>
<p>The treble winners are in a three-horse race for the title, so it's not like City can take their focus off the league.</p>
<p>But with Luton among the favourites for relegation and Madrid arguably their biggest challengers in Europe, rests for key players would be unsurprising.</p>
