This weekend the Premier League is back in action but the big clubs are struggling with a very serious setback of injured players and suspended ones at the same time. Gabriel, a defender, will be out of action for Arsenal when they meet Tottenham Hotspur at the Emirates on Sunday. On the other hand, after long-term Gyokeres, a striker, might come back from a hamstring injury and this could be Mikel Arteta’s indubitable advantage.
Furthermore, Liverpool can get a boost as goalkeeper Alisson returned back to training this week ahead of their match with Nottingham Forest. Besides, Liverpool still have to deal with the absences of long-term players such as Stefan Bajcetic and Jeremie Frimpong, but the potential comeback of Alisson gives a good vibe to them.
Moreover, Chelsea are traveling to Burnley with Enzo Fernandez being the only one in doubt of a knee injury. Blues apart from the absence of Cole Palmer, Mykhailo Mudryk, Levi Colwill and Romeo Lavia have no other option but to be optimistic by the arrival of Enzo Maresca after losing the last match. Likewise, Burnley have been hit with the absences of Zeki Amdouni and Jordan Beyer among others.
Additionally, Lucas Paqueta West Ham is suspended for a match against in-form Bournemouth while the latter are without a few players such as Milos Kerkez and Ben Doak. On the other hand, Brighton are running out of players for their match with Brentford while Fulham, Crystal Palace, and Wolves are struggling with injuries in their squads as well.
Anyhow, Manchester City are on their way to Newcastle without Mateo Kovacic and Rodri and in addition to that, both clubs have a list of players who are doubtful for the clash.
Injuries might have a deciding role in the outcome of the matches which involve key derbies, top-four battles, and relegation fights in a crucial Premier League weekend which is almost here.
