Key Premier League Injuries and Suspensions for Gameweek 4
Marco Rose laid out Bournemouth's queue on Thursday. Veljko Milosavljevic is running with the ball and should be first back, Amine Adli follows a few days later, and Junior Kroupi and Julian Araujo are both targeting November after surgery.
Liverpool have a fresh doubt. Cody Gakpo finished Wednesday's win over Atletico Madrid with niggles in both adductors and Andoni Iraola could not guarantee him for Saturday against Fulham. Newcastle fared better, with Amar Dedic's hamstring not looking serious after he came off at halftime in midweek, though Joelinton remains out for Monday's trip to Leeds.
Crystal Palace could hand Cheick Doucoure his first senior appearance in nearly 20 months against Ipswich Town, and Ismaila Sarr is now expected to resume first-team training on Monday. Nottingham Forest get Ibrahim Sangare back for Aston Villa, but Nicolo Savona has hit further setbacks and still has no return date.
Georginio Rutter should be available for Brighton against Coventry City. Sunderland lose Romaine Mundle until around the end of the year following meniscus surgery.
Joao Gomes sits out one more Gameweek, serving a ban after his violent conduct red card on his Aston Villa debut.

Latest Premier League Injuries and Suspensions
Premier League Injury Statuses Explained
- Out means the player is ruled out of the next fixture. Either the club has confirmed it, or there is a known return date still in the future.
- Doubtful means the call is a game-time decision (GTD). The player is in contention, but the manager has not committed to a status, and the decision often lands on matchday morning or with the teamsheet itself. In Sean Dyche terms, this is when a player is "touch and go."
- Suspended means the player is unavailable through accumulated yellow cards or a red card ban.
- News means there is a written update attached to that player from the last few days. Open it for the quote and its timestamp.
Treat a doubtful tag as an open question, not an answer. Managers hold pre-match press conferences on Thursday and Friday for a weekend fixture, and that is when most of the week's uncertainty resolves. Trust the news note over the estimated return date, and cross-check anyone you are counting on against the predicted lineups before you commit. A player can be perfectly fit and still start on the bench.
Premier League Suspension Rules Explained
Suspensions are the most predictable part of team news and the part people get wrong most often. The Premier League runs three yellow card thresholds, each tied to a cut-off point in the season.
- Five yellow cards in a club's first 19 league matches brings an automatic one-match ban. Reach five after that cut-off and nothing happens, which is why bookings pile up harmlessly through the second half of the season, assuming they're below 10.
- Ten yellow cards in the first 32 matches brings a two-match ban.
- Fifteen yellow cards across all 38 brings a three-match ban.
Only Premier League bookings count toward those totals, and the resulting bans are served in Premier League fixtures. Cards picked up in the FA Cup or the EFL Cup accumulate on separate counts.
Red-card suspensions depend on the offence. Dismissals for two yellow cards or certain professional fouls generally carry shorter bans, while serious foul play and violent conduct can result in longer suspensions. Unlike yellow-card accumulation bans, red-card suspensions can carry across the Premier League, FA Cup and EFL Cup.
Clubs can appeal a red card as wrongful dismissal. Yellow card accumulation bans cannot be appealed at all, which makes the players sitting on four bookings the ones worth watching as a gameweek approaches.
Premier League Injury FAQs
Before making a transfer, compare the latest injury status with our FPL player rankings and predicted lineups.
Who is injured in the Premier League right now?
The table at the top of this page covers all 20 clubs, with the most recent news note attached to each player. It updates as news breaks, so what you see is the current picture.
What does doubtful or GTD mean?
The club has not committed either way, and the player could go in either direction. Expect the resolution at the pre-match press conference or with the confirmed teamsheet. A doubtful player may still start, appear from the bench or miss out entirely, so the latest manager comments and predicted lineup are more useful than the tag alone.
When will an injured Premier League player return?
Expected return dates are estimates and can change as a player progresses through treatment and training. Check the player's latest timestamped news update in the injury table for the most current information. Manager press conferences later in the week often provide a clearer timetable for players nearing a return.
How many yellow cards is a suspension in the Premier League?
Five, so long as they arrive inside a club's first 19 league matches. Ten through 32 matches and 15 through all 38 are the later thresholds, worth two matches and three.
How long is a red card ban in the Premier League?
One match for a second yellow or a professional foul, and three for serious foul play or violent conduct. The Football Association can go longer where an incident warrants it.
Do Premier League suspensions carry over to the FA Cup or Champions League?
Domestic competitions share a red card ban, so a league sending-off can cost a cup appearance. UEFA keeps its own count, and yellow card bans stay inside the Premier League.
When is Premier League injury news updated?
Updates land continuously, with the biggest wave on Thursday and Friday when managers face the press. Confirmed teamsheets bring a second, smaller one on matchday.
How do I check whether one specific player is fit?
Filter the table to his club and open the news note on his row for the latest quote and its timestamp. Every player name also links through to a full profile with his complete news history.
Which Premier League team has the most injuries?
It shifts week to week. Set the status filter to Out and work through the club dropdown to compare squads before you commit to a transfer or a team-news bet.
How do Premier League injuries affect FPL?
Injured and doubtful players can affect both expected minutes and whether a player appears at all. Before making an FPL transfer, check the latest injury news, expected return date and projected lineup. If an FPL player does not appear, an eligible bench player may automatically substitute into the lineup under FPL rules.
