Latest News: Fabio Vieira is both suspended and injured for the Gunners, who also remain without Thomas Partey (muscle), Jurrien Timber (knee) and Emile Smith Rowe (knee). On-loan goalkeeper David Raya is available again, however, having been ineligible to face his parent club Brentford in Gameweek 13. The line-up you see here is the one that blew Lens away in midweek but there is the nagging sense that Mikel Arteta will use his squad in one or both of the next two league matches, which will be the second and third competitive fixtures in the space of seven days. The comfortable manner of Wednesday's victory allowed Arteta to make some early substitutions and spare the legs of Oleksandr Zinchenko, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka, so it's the Brazilian trio of Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus who are perhaps the most at risk of an imminent benching. Arteta used accumulated minutes for club and country as the rationale behind Gameweek 10 benchings for Gabriel and Martin Odegaard, so there will be some concern about this trio of Gabriels after they flew off to South America during the November international break. If the Arsenal boss goes full strength against Wolves, then Tuesday's trip to Luton could see the likes of Jorginho, Leandro Trossard, Eddie Nketiah, Jakub Kiwior and Ben White get a look-in.

Latest News: Boubacar Kamara picked up his fifth booking of the season last weekend and will miss this contest, as will the injured Bertrand Traore (unspecified), Tyrone Mings (knee) and Emi Buendia (knee). Villa also have a big concern over Ollie Watkins, who sat out Thursday’s clash with Legia Warsaw with a “small pain”. Unai Emery reported in Friday's pre-match presser that the striker was a "doubt" and "50/50" for the visit to the Vitality Stadium, having a day earlier said that his omission was partly down to getting "a rest". Jhon Duran or Leon Bailey will be on standby to deputise through the middle on the south coast, if needed. The omission of Diego Carlos from the Villa line-up against Legia is possibly ominous for Matty Cash, as it likely signals a) the inclusion of Carlos this weekend and b) a move to right-back for Ezri Konsa. Cash could be used on the right wing again, of course, but that was a tactic abandoned after 45 minutes against Spurs last Sunday, with Bailey impressing in that position after the interval. Given that Bailey was also benched against the Polish side, while Cash lasted 90 minutes, and there's obvious cause for concern. John McGinn or Youri Tielemans will be used centrally in Kamara's absence, with the other operating out wide again in Emery's 4-2-2-2/4-4-2.

Latest News: Bournemouth will be without Lloyd Kelly (hamstring) for Sunday’s game against Aston Villa, with no timeframe yet placed on his return. There are no other fresh injury concerns for the Cherries and Iraola isn’t expecting anyone else back for the game, so Max Aarons (hamstring), Tyler Adams (hamstring), Alex Scott (knee) and Ryan Fredericks (calf) remain out. Emi Marcondes, who has been absent all season after foot surgery, got his first minutes of 2023/24 in a behind-closed-door friendly in midweek. With the exception of an enforced change at right-back, Iraola has unsurprisingly trusted the same set of players for the Cherries' successive wins in the last two Gameweeks. He'll have to make at least one more alteration with Kelly out: Milos Kerkez is the more natural replacement but he's somewhat more attack-minded, so his manager could move Adam Smith over to Kelly's spot and use Chris Mepham at right-back instead. Philip Billing, Dango Ouattara, Luis Sinisterra and David Brooks may have to be patient again after the displays of the attacking midfielders behind Dominic Solanke in the last two league victories.

Latest News: Brentford will again be without long-term absentees Aaron Hickey (hamstring), Kevin Schade (muscle), Rico Henry (knee) and Ivan Toney (suspended), while the visit of Luton comes too soon for Nathan Collins (ankle), Mathias Jensen (adductor) and Josh Dasilva (hamstring). Mads Roerslev has been passed fit after missing out in Gameweek 13, while a now injury-free Mikkel Damsgaard (knee) may also be involved after a 45-minute run-out in a behind-closed-doors friendly on Tuesday; Thomas Frank said it was “touch and go” as to whether he’ll feature this weekend. The Brentford boss will surely switch back to a more attacking 4-3-3 after using a horses-for-courses 3-5-2 against Arsenal, perhaps sacrificing Saman Ghoddos and reinstating Neal Maupay up top. Keane Lewis-Potter is an alternative option in the front three. The only other feasible change is the return of Roerslev at full-back, which would see Vitaly Janelt move back into midfield and one of Frank Onyeka or Yegor Yarmoliuk drop out.

Latest News: We've yet to hear from Roberto De Zerbi since Brighton won in Europe on Thursday, so we're uncertain about the Albion injury latest - including an explanation as to why Adam Lallana was absent from the UEFA Europa League squad. De Zerbi at least brought us up to speed on a few fitness issues earlier in the week, confirming that Ansu Fati and Tariq Lamptey were expected to be out for a "long time" after sustaining muscle injuries in Gameweek 13. Solly March (knee), Danny Welbeck (muscle), Julio Enciso (knee), Adam Webster (unspecified) and Pervis Estupinan (muscle) were already on the sidelines, while Lewis Dunk and Mahmoud Dahoud are suspended, but Igor Julio, James Milner and Kaoru Mitoma all recovered for the midweek clash with AEK. Lallana has a good chance of displacing one of Evan Ferguson or Joao Pedro if he is indeed fit, with both forwards racking up the game-time this week off the back of international involvement with their countries. There aren't too many alternatives for De Zerbi given the lengthy injuries and bans list, especially after he said the sparingly used Carlos Baleba "has to improve". Jack Hinshelwood received words of praise from his boss following Thursday's win in Athens, however, so he could get more game-time either as an emergency full-back or in central midfield at Stamford Bridge. The neat two-on, two-off goalkeeping pattern has been slightly tweaked of late, so there are no guarantees that Jason Steele comes into the side here despite successive starts for Bart Verbruggen after the November break.

Latest News: Jack Cork (knock) is still out and backup goalkeeper Arijanet Muric is "struggling" with an infection, while it is assumed that Lyle Foster remains unavailable as he continues to seek help for his mental health. After plenty of early-season tinkering, Vincent Kompany has kept faith with the same starting XI in Gameweeks 11-13. He has been rewarded with some improved performances, if not results: the Clarets were the better team against West Ham last weekend before suffering late heartbreak. Kompany has plenty of options if he does want to change things around, with Michael Obafemi an alternative up top and Aaron Ramsey, Nathan Redmond, Anass Zaroury and Jacob Bruun Larsen pushing for starts in the attacking midfield positions. The return to fitness of Hjalmar Ekdal, a substitute against the Hammers, also puts pressure on Dara O'Shea at centre-half. The likes of Ameen Al-Dakhil, Mike Tresor and Wilson Odobert haven't even made the matchday squad of late, and neither has Manuel Benson - although he at least has the excuse of a recent return from injury and game-time with the under-21s.

Latest News: Mauricio Pochettino hasn't completely ruled out the possibility of Romeo Lavia (ankle) and Christopher Nkunku (knee) featuring this weekend, saying the long-injured pair were "close" but needing further assessment. Nkunku stands the best chance of being involved in some capacity, having been pictured in full team training this week. Chelsea have plenty of other issues, however, with Reece James and Marc Cucurella suspended and Ben Chilwell (hamstring), Wesley Fofana (knee), Trevoh Chalobah (hamstring) and Carney Chukwuemeka (knee) on the injury list. Malo Gusto (knee) is also presumably out, having not been seen in midweek training photos and described as "undergoing his rehabilitation programme" in Chelsea's weekly injury bulletin. It could be four centre-halves playing across the rear, then, with Moises Caicedo - who was benched in Gameweek 13 after a late return from South America - coming into midfield to replace Lesley Ugochukwu. A start is surely beyond Nkunku even if he does make the squad, so Armando Broja, Noni Madueke and Mykhailo Mudryk are the attacking alternatives if Pochettino does wish to make changes to his frontline - not that goalscoring has been a problem of late.

Latest News: Eberechi Eze (ankle) and Cheick Doucoure (Achilles) both came off in the defeat to Luton last weekend, with Roy Hodgson confirming that Doucoure has “snapped his Achilles tendon” and could be out for the season. Eze, meanwhile, was still seeking specialist advice as of Friday, with his foot remaining in a boot for now. Rob Holding (ankle) has also joined Jesurun Rak-Sakyi (hamstring), Dean Henderson (thigh) and Nathan Ferguson (hamstring) on the injury list but James Tomkins (calf) is at least back to warm the bench against his former employers on Sunday. Jordan Ayew and Will Hughes, the substitutes brought on for Eze and Doucoure last weekend, are the hot favourites to get promotions to the starting XI, with Hodgson yet to trust Naouirou Ahamada and Matheus Franca with a single Premier League start in 2023/24. Hodgson tends to swerve rotation when Palace are playing once a week but he has previously tweaked things in busy periods over the years, so the likes of Nathaniel Clyne, Jean-Phillipe Mateta and Chris Richards will retain hopes of a start with three games coming up in the next seven days.

Latest News: Amadou Onana (calf) is “unlikely” to make the trip to Nottingham Forest, while Dele Alli (hip) and Andre Gomes (calf) remain out. Sean Dyche said on Thursday that the Toffees were also "being careful with" Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who has complained of muscle tightness. There was better news on Gameweek 13 absentee Beto (knee), who has trained this week and who could come into contention for a start if Calvert-Lewin isn't risked. Arnaut Danjuma and Youssef Chermiti are further options up top, if needed. Aside from the centre-forward role, the right-back slot is the one other position where there is some debate. Ashley Young struggled against his former employers last Sunday, so Dyche may be tempted to make a change to his back four. It may hinge on whether Seamus Coleman is deemed match-fit enough to feature, as the Everton boss again appeared to be lukewarm on Nathan Patterson, saying that he was "still developing".

Latest News: Joao Palhinha returns from suspension for the Cottagers, who still have Issa Diop (foot), Adama Traore (hamstring), Rodrigo Muniz (knee) and Tyrese Francois (knock) on the sidelines for the trip to Liverpool. Marco Silva will have no qualms about breaking up a winning team to accommodate the hugely influential Palhinha, with Tom Cairney, Harrison Reed or Andreas Pereira making way. Cairney was excellent against Wolves on Monday but an away match at Liverpool is a very different prospect altogether, so Silva may opt to hold the long-serving midfielder back for the midweek match against Nottingham Forest. Grafter Bobby DeCordova-Reid also often starts down one of the flanks against big-six sides, so don't be surprised to see him back in the side at Anfield. And despite the win over Wolves, Tim Ream's desperate lack of pace may be a worry for Silva this Sunday - so the fit-again Tosin Adarabioyo might be the man to break Ream's 91-match run without a league benching under his current manager.

Latest News: Andrew Robertson (shoulder), Stefan Bajcetic (calf) and Thiago Alcantara (hip) have been joined on the injury list by Alisson and Diogo Jota, who suffered muscular injuries in Saturday’s draw with Manchester City. Jota’s injury sounds the more serious, with Alisson pencilled in for a possible Gameweek 17 return. Jurgen Klopp made nine starting XI changes for the win over LASK on Thursday, with only Mohamed Salah and Kostas Tsimikas keeping their places - and even then, Salah's legs were spared before the hour mark. The bulk of the side that drew with Manchester City will return for this one, then, with Luis Diaz and Caoimhin Kelleher in line to replace the sidelined Jota and Alisson. Klopp was asked about a possible dilemma up top after Cody Gakpo's goal on Thursday night but batted back the question, saying that Darwin "is in a top moment" and that Gakpo doesn't now "expect to play the next five games in a row". That said, it wouldn't be a surprise if Klopp went on to tinker with his side in Gameweek 15 against Sheffield United, the second match in a three-game week. Tsimikas, Joel Matip and Curtis Jones could easily sit out one of the next three games, too, with Joe Gomez, Ibrahima Konate and Ryan Gravenberch waiting in the wings.

Latest News: Luton welcome back Issa Kabore in west London after the wing-back missed the win over Crystal Palace with a concussion. The match likely comes too soon for Marvelous Nakamba (knee), Daniel Potts (ankle) and Albert Sambi Lokonga (hamstring), however, while Mads Andersen (hamstring), Reece Burke (hamstring) and Cauley Woodrow (calf) also remain out. Kabore's return to fitness may give Rob Edwards a welcome selection headache, as Alfie Doughty didn't look at home when deputising at right wing-back on his 'wrong' side. But with Doughty's creativity a big weapon, Amari'i Bell a favourite of his manager and the three centre-halves improving as a unit, deciding on a makeweight isn't easy. Who lines up on the right wing is also a conundrum for Edwards, with Tahith Chong and Jacob Brown impressing off the bench in Gameweek 13. The veteran Andros Townsend may still get the nod for his graft and nous, with the game-changers held back in reserve for second-half cameos. After seven matches without a goal, the question may also soon have to be asked over how long Carlton Morris remains an automatic choice in attack.

Latest News: Jack Grealish made a swift recovery from illness to start Man City’s win over RB Leipzig on Tuesday, a match that Mateo Kovacic (quad) and Matheus Nunes (muscle) missed out on. Nunes remains absent, along with Kevin De Bruyne (hamstring), but Kovacic has returned to training in the last few days and comes into contention for Sunday's match. John Stones will also be involved in the matchday squad but after he failed to get off the bench in two matches following his recovery from a muscle issue, even Pep Guardiola admitted that there was doubts about whether he'd be able to start against Spurs. Manuel Akanji, the farmstores Stones in terms of inverting into midfield, should get a game-time boost, then. The so-so performances of Ruben Dias reached a nadir in the first half of the comeback victory against Leipzig, with the stopper hooked at the break. It might not be an either/or for Josko Gvardiol and Nathan Ake, then, if Guardiola makes the big call to take Dias out of the firing line for this one. Grealish has typically been used on the flank in matches in which Guardiola wants to exercise some control, and the visit of the gung-ho Lilywhites might be one of them. Nevertheless, Jeremy Doku's lightning wing play will surely get a lot of joy from the injury-hit Spurs backline. Both players could start, of course, if Phil Foden is moved centrally at the expense of a jaded-looking Julian Alvarez - that'd be another big call from Guardiola in a game of this magnitude, given that Alvarez has been an ever-present starter in the Premier League this season.

Latest News: Mason Mount (calf) is back in training after missing the last two matches in league and cup but there are no guarantees he'll feature at Newcastle this weekend, with Erik ten Hag saying that he didn't know how it long it would take for him to be match-ready. Jadon Sancho (disciplinary), Jonny Evans (thigh), Amad Diallo (knee), Casemiro (ankle), Christian Eriksen (knee), Tyrell Malacia (knee) and Lisandro Martinez (foot) also remain out but Rasmus Hojlund (muscle) and Antony (knock) recovered for the midweek six-goal thriller in Turkey. Kobbie Mainoo, who impressed against Everton, should return to the midfield after having his minutes managed in the Champions League clash with Galatasaray, a match that Marcus Rashford missed through suspension. Ten Hag may prefer the more defensively sound Aaron Wan-Bissaka over Diogo Dalot up against the in-form Anthony Gordon, while Hojlund will surely get the nod ahead of Anthony Martial despite the Frenchman's goal in Gameweek 13. Ten Hag suddenly has a bit of a dilemma on the flanks, with Antony actually turning in a decent performance in midweek and Garnacho still riding the wave of praise from his stunner at Goodison Park. A case could be made for the out-of-sorts Rashford being benched, something that his manager has so far resisted despite his poor 2023/24.

Latest News: Eddie Howe said on Friday that he wasn’t expecting any of his injured players back for the visit of Manchester United, although loanee Lewis Hall is available after he was ineligible to feature against his parent club in Gameweek 13. So, the Magpies look again set to be without Harvey Barnes (toe), Jacob Murphy (shoulder), Elliot Anderson (back), Matt Targett (hamstring), Dan Burn (back), Sandro Tonali (ban), Javier Manquillo (groin), Joe Willock (Achilles), Callum Wilson (hamstring), Sean Longstaff (ankle) and Sven Botman (knee) this weekend. Howe doesn't have many alternative options if he wishes to change things around, with Hall, Matt Ritchie and Emil Krafth the only other senior outfielders available to him - and the last two of those haven't started a Premier League game since the 2021/22 campaign. Hall for Tino Livramento is one possible change at left-back; the latter was again excellent in Paris but Howe kept us on his toes by naming Hall in his starting XI in Gameweek 12. Livramento has started and finished both matches since the November break, while he also racked up 135 minutes for England under-21s last month, so there may be one eye on his accumulated game-time in the coming week.

Latest News: Taiwo Awoniyi (groin) is out for three months after groin surgery, while long-term absentee Felipe (knee) presumably remains on the sidelines based on Steve Cooper’s update that Forest were "as we were" in terms of injuries. Cooper's comments are always to be taken with a pinch of salt, of course. We could see an example of this with Ibrahim Sangare, who picked up an illness while on Ivory Coast duty and missed Gameweek 13 as a result. Cooper said on Thursday that it's "going to take a little bit of time" for Sangare to recover, adding that he was "back out on the grass, albeit not in full training". We've heard similar words in the past, only for the player in question to start, so don't be surprised to see Sangare's name on the teamsheet against Everton. Ryan Yates, Danilo, Cheikhou Kouyaté and Andrey Santos are the alternatives in the engine room if Sangare does miss out, while Cooper may even decide to bring in Callum Hudson-Odoi on the wing and move Morgan Gibbs-White centrally. One of Gibbs-White or Anthony Elanga are options as a false nine, too, if Cooper isn't overly enamoured with Chris Wood and Divock Origi as his strikers. The no-nonsense Willy Boly might be the man to solve the defensive problems at the rear, after six goals were conceded in the last two matches. Gonzalo Montiel, Neco Williams and Serge Aurier are alternatives at full-back, too, but Ola Aina and Harry Toffolo haven't done a great deal wrong of late despite the back-to-back losses.

Latest News: Chris Basham (leg), Rhian Brewster (knee), Tom Davies (thigh), John Egan (leg), Daniel Jebbison (illness) and Rhys Norrington-Davies (hamstring) remain out for the trip to Turf Moor but Wes Foderingham should be OK, having returned to training following an illness earlier this week. The fit-again Anel Ahmedhodzic and Oli McBurnie made their comebacks as substitutes last weekend and are a week closer to starting, with the dire showing against Bournemouth furthering the case for their inclusion. A recall for Ahmedhodzic would likely necessitate a reshuffle, with George Baldock moving to right wing-back and Jayden Bogle dropping out. McBurnie, meanwhile, will probably take the place of one of the Blades' central midfielders. The out-of-sorts Vinicius Souza was hooked at half-time last weekend to accommodate McBurnie but it was James McAtee who missed out when Paul Heckingbottom last went with two up top, so the Manchester City loanee could again be at risk. Heckingbottom may also be eyeing up a change at left wing-back after Luke Thomas's poor recent displays, with Ben Osborn, Max Lowe and Yasser Larouci all options.

Pape Matar Sarr, who missed the defeat to Aston Villa with a “bit of an issue”, also looks set to remain absent, with he and Richarlison (pelvic) the closest of Spurs' injured players to a comeback; the Brazilian will return to training on Saturday. Cristian Romero is still suspended, just to compound matters, but Yves Bissouma at least makes a welcome return from a one-match ban in midfield. Who joins Bissouma and Giovani Lo Celso in midfield is Postecoglou's big dilemma: does he go with a more conservative Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg or Oliver Skipp selection, or again use Dejan Kulusevski in a more central role and deploy Bryan Gil out wide? Given what we're fast learning about the Aussie head coach, 'conservative' doesn't seem to be in his repertoire. Any notion that Eric Dier may be brought back into the side to deal with Erling Haaland's aerial ability also look to have been pooh-poohed by Postecoglou in Friday's presser.

Latest News: Wolves’ Mario Lemina and Joao Gomes will miss this game through suspension, while Rayan Ait-Nouri (ankle) has joined Joe Hodge (shoulder) and Pedro Neto (hamstring) on the injury list. The game will also likely come too soon for Nathan Fraser (quad), although Craig Dawson returns from his own one-match ban to bolster the ranks at the rear. Boubacar Traore and Tommy Doyle will have to step up in midfield with few/no alternatives available but there is more debate to be had over who fills in for Ait-Nouri, with Hugo Bueno the most natural replacement. Bueno, however, is someone who may still be struggling with fitness after a spell on the sidelines. It was Matt Doherty, indeed, who was brought on to replace Ait-Nouri at Fulham on Monday.
