Mikel Arteta also said earlier this week<\/a>, ahead of the Olympiacos game, that\u00a0Piero Hincapie\u00a0(groin) remained out.<\/p>\n As for Wednesday\u2019s match itself, there was a scare for owners of Gabriel Magalhaes after he was flattened by his own goalkeeper<\/a> and subsequently taken off after treatment.<\/p>\n There doesn\u2019t seem to be much concern, however. Gabriel took a seat in the dugout after his substitution (ergo wasn\u2019t getting any more medical attention), while his manager reckons all is well \u2013 and even referred to a kick in the first half rather than David Raya\u2018s WWE move.<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, I think he\u2019s going to be okay. He felt something, I think it was a kick, not sure, in the first half, and he was a bit uncomfortable towards the second half. He could carry on but we decided not to take any risks because he\u2019s played a lot of games. He\u2019s come from a long-term injury, as well, and we need to look after him.\u201d \u2013 Mikel Arteta on Gabriel Magalhaes, speaking after full-time on Wednesday<\/p>\n ASTON VILLA<\/p>\n Youri Tielemans\u00a0(calf),\u00a0Amadou Onana\u00a0(hamstring)\u00a0and\u00a0Ross Barkley\u00a0(personal reasons) will again miss out for Villa on Thursday. The Villans face Feyenoord three days before Gameweek 7.<\/p>\n Unai Emery also ruled Andres Garcia\u00a0out, even though he was involved in the squad against Bologna last week.<\/p>\n Added to the unavailable list are Jadon Sancho (illness) and Tyrone Mings (ankle). Mings looks set to be out until after the international break.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cSancho is sick, still being sick. He was on Sunday. He trained this morning but he\u2019s not in the group for the match tomorrow.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re still having the same players out \u2013 Onana, Youri Tielemans, Andr\u00e9s, Barkley.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd other players, I think we are here.<\/p>\n \u201cTyrone as well, he is out.\u201d \u2013 Unai Emery, speaking on Wednesday<\/p>\n BOURNEMOUTH<\/p>\n Adam Smith\u00a0(hamstring) and\u00a0Enes Unal\u00a0(knee)\u00a0are still on the sidelines for the Cherries.<\/p>\n Head coach Andoni Iraola said last Friday<\/a> that he\u2019d check on\u00a0Lewis Cook\u00a0(shoulder) ahead of the Leeds United match but the midfielder, who was in \u201cpain\u201d, missed out.<\/p>\n BRENTFORD<\/p>\n Reiss Nelson\u00a0should be good to go this weekend. He missed out in Gameweek 6, having had a disrupted week of training due to illness but was already back on the grass <\/a>ahead of the win over Manchester United.<\/p>\n Longer-term absentees\u00a0Gustavo Nunes\u00a0(hamstring) and\u00a0Paris Maghoma\u00a0(hamstring) are both back on the grass and closing in on returns.<\/p>\n Maghoma was set to \u201creintegrate into team training\u201d this week, while Nunes\u00a0\u201cwill feature for Brentford B in their upcoming games to build fitness and match sharpness\u201d. He wasn\u2019t involved in Tuesday\u2019s reserve game, however.<\/p>\n BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION<\/p>\n Jack Hinshelwood\u00a0(ankle),\u00a0Adam Webster\u00a0(knee) and\u00a0Solly March\u00a0(knee) remain on the sidelines for the Seagulls.<\/p>\n We\u2019re not aware of any other issues affecting Brighton at present.<\/p>\n BURNLEY<\/p>\n Zeki Amdouni (knee), Jordan Beyer (hamstring) and Connor Roberts (knee) are still out for the Clarets.<\/p>\n CHELSEA<\/p>\n Cole Palmer\u00a0(groin), Tosin Adarabioyo\u00a0(calf),\u00a0Wesley Fofana (concussion), Levi Colwill\u00a0(knee),\u00a0Dario Essugo\u00a0(thigh) and\u00a0Liam Delap\u00a0(hamstring) remain sidelined, while\u00a0Mykhailo Mudryk and Trevoh Chalobah are suspended.<\/p>\n Andriy Santos (unspecified) has been added to the injury list<\/a> in the last few days.<\/p>\n It doesn\u2019t end there, with Enzo Maresca saying earlier this week that Joao Pedro and Moises Caicedo are battling with \u201csmall problems\u201d.<\/a> Both featured on Tuesday in the Champions League but their training schedules continue to be affected.<\/a> Pedro has not been named in Brazil\u2019s squad for the upcoming internationals.<\/p>\n Facundo Buonanotte is back, at least, having been ineligible to feature in Gameweek 6.<\/p>\n CRYSTAL PALACE<\/p>\n It\u2019s fairly rosy on the team news front at Palace, with only longer-term absentees Chadi Riad\u00a0(knee),\u00a0Cheick Doucoure\u00a0(knee) and\u00a0Caleb Kporha\u00a0(back) on the injury list<\/a> for Thursday\u2019s Conference League clash with Dynamo Kyiv.<\/p>\n Walter Benitez\u00a0(finger) is back available.<\/p>\n EVERTON<\/p>\n Jarrad Branthwaite\u00a0(hamstring) and\u00a0Merlin Rohl\u00a0(hip) missed out again for the Toffees in Gameweek 6, with the latest news awaited on them.<\/p>\n Another Evertonian will definitely miss out this weekend: Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is suspended after picking up his fifth booking of the season.<\/a><\/p>\n FULHAM<\/p>\n Rodrigo Muniz (muscle) and Kenny Tete (knee) both joined the injury list<\/a> ahead of the defeat to Aston Villa, while Raul Jimenez suffered a blow to the hip and hobbled off early in that game.<\/p>\n Further word is awaited on those three.<\/p>\n It doesn\u2019t sound too optimistic for Muniz ahead of the weekend. Upon the striker signing a new contract on Wednesday<\/a>, the Cottagers said they \u201ceagerly await his return to action as he continues his rehabilitation over a muscle strain\u201d.<\/p>\n LEEDS UNITED<\/p>\n Daniel Farke previously said<\/a> that Lucas Perri (muscle) wouldn\u2019t be considered until after the October international break.<\/p>\n Daniel James is a new concern, with Leeds confirming on Wednesday<\/a> that he had an ankle injury \u2013 the severity of which is yet to be announced.<\/p>\n The latest is awaited on Wilfried Gnonto (calf), who has missed the last two games.<\/p>\n LIVERPOOL<\/p>\n Tuesday\u2019s trip to Turkey was a costly one for Liverpool, with\u00a0Alisson and\u00a0Hugo Ekitike\u00a0both suffering muscular issues.<\/p>\n Arne Slot has all but ruled the Brazilian out of this weekend\u2019s clash with Chelsea. Reports suggest Alisson will be out for \u201ca few weeks at least\u201d.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cYou can be sure that he\u2019s not playing on Saturday and let\u2019s wait how long it is going to take. But he\u2019s definitely not going to play on Saturday.\u201d \u2013 Arne Slot on Alisson, to Amazon Prime<\/p>\n \u201cIf my player is on the floor, I nine out of 10 times fear the worst \u2013 and by the worst I mean he cannot continue. That\u2019s what happened with Alisson.<\/p>\n \u201cNormally, he will not be able to play Saturday. That\u2019s 99.9 per cent \u2013 I\u2019ve already said 100 per cent, but let\u2019s make it 99.9 [although] I think it\u2019s 100.\u201d \u2013 Arne Slot on Alisson in his post-match presser<\/p>\n As for Ekitike, he too seemed to strain his hamstring in the second half but thought it was just \u201ccramp\u201d.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cHe felt something when he had to reach for the ball. I think we all know which one it was when we were trying to force something.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter the game, that\u2019s always the difficult thing with these moments when players feel like it is not too bad, but when you just walk around, it is something different than when you make a sprint or have to shoot on target.<\/p>\n \u201cHe said he couldn\u2019t continue, so we had to take him off. Let\u2019s see how he is for the weekend.\u201d \u2013 Arne Slot on Hugo Ekitike<\/p>\n Giovanni Leoni\u00a0(ACL) is out for the season, while Federico Chiesa sat out Tuesday\u2019s Champions League game with a \u201clittle niggle\u201d.<\/p>\n MANCHESTER CITY<\/p>\n After missing the win over Burnley on Saturday, Rodri (knee) made a very swift return to action for Wednesday\u2019s draw with Monaco.<\/p>\n Pep Guardiola confirmed after full-time that he came through his hour-long run-out unscathed.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, Omar Marmoush\u00a0(knee),\u00a0Rayan Ait-Nouri\u00a0(ankle),\u00a0Abdudokir Khusanov\u00a0(unknown) and\u00a0Rayan Cherki\u00a0(thigh) are expected to remain out until after the international break.<\/p>\n MANCHESTER UNITED<\/p>\n Amad Diallo is back in training<\/a> after missing out in Gameweek 6 for personal reasons.<\/p>\n Tyrell Malacia, who looked set for a move away in the summer, was also welcomed back into the first-team fold for the first time in 2025\/26.<\/p>\n Casemiro is available, too, after having been suspended for Saturday\u2019s Brentford defeat.<\/p>\n Lisandro Martinez (knee) and Noussair Mazraoui\u00a0(unspecified) are still unavailable.<\/p>\n NEWCASTLE UNITED<\/p>\n We finally have a timeline on Tino Livramento, who picked up a knee injury in Gameweek 6.<\/p>\n \u201cFrom yesterday, Tino we think will be roughly around six to eight weeks, which is probably positive from where we were after the game, thinking it might be months.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re probably looking, not this international break but maybe the next one, he could be back. It\u2019s certainly more positive than we initially feared.\u201d \u2013 Eddie Howe on Tino Livramento, speaking on Wednesday<\/p>\n Yoane Wissa\u00a0(knee) and\u00a0Jacob Ramsey\u00a0(ankle) remain out until after the October international break, meanwhile.<\/p>\n \u201cI think we\u2019re still on track for where we were, which is after this international break coming up.<\/p>\n \u201cHe hasn\u2019t trained on the grass yet, so we haven\u2019t seen him as part of any team training. At the moment, that\u2019s the schedule, but we\u2019ll wait and see.\u201d \u2013 Eddie Howe on Yoane Wissa<\/p>\n Fabian Schar (concussion) returned from a head injury for Wednesday\u2019s win in Belgium.<\/p>\n NOTTINGHAM FOREST<\/p>\n Murillo (knock) is fit again and looks set to play a part in Thursday\u2019s Europa League tie with Midtjylland.<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, Murillo should be good. He\u2019s trained the last, sort of, three days, had a good solid block. First time he\u2019s had a solid block of training. So he\u2019s available.\u201d \u2013 Ange Postecoglou, speaking on Wednesday<\/p>\n Oleksandr Zinchenko (groin) has joined Douglas Luiz\u00a0(hamstring) on the injury list, however.<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, he\u2019s not too bad. He pulled up a bit sore with his groin [against Sunderland]. He did well to finish the game to be honest. He felt it pretty early on. Look, he\u2019s probably played more football in this last three weeks than he has played for quite a while, so it is not surprising that he felt a bit sore. It\u2019s nothing significant. It\u2019ll put him out tomorrow night, probably the weekend, with us knowing that the international window is straight after it.\u201d \u2013 Ange Postecoglou on Oleksandr Zinchenko, speaking on Wednesday\u00a0<\/p>\n SUNDERLAND<\/p>\n Reinildo Mandava serves game two of a three-match ban after being sent off for violent conduct in the draw with Aston Villa.<\/p>\n Romaine Mundle (hamstring), Dennis Cirkin (wrist), Aji Alese (shoulder), Leo Hjelde (Achilles) and Habib Diarra (groin) remain out.<\/p>\n TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR<\/p>\n Dominic Solanke\u00a0(ankle) has undergone surgery this week and remains out for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n Randal Kolo Muani\u00a0(dead leg) is making \u201cprogress\u201d in his own recovery, while Cristian Romero sat out the trip to Bodo\/Glimt on Tuesday as a precaution.<\/p>\n \u201cDom, you know, got that ankle issue that\u2019s been bothering him for a little while, so now we decided to make a minor surgery. It\u2019s a small procedure, so that will mean he\u2019s not ready for today, of course. And of course, Leeds, he\u2019s out as well. We will have more news about timeframe after the international break, but I don\u2019t expect it to be long.<\/p>\n \u201cKolo Muani, I think now we\u2019re finally on top of his dead leg, so there\u2019s also progress there. That\u2019s good and Cuti [Romero] was just a precaution.\u201d \u2013 Thomas Frank, speaking on Monday<\/p>\n Radu Dragusin\u00a0(knee),\u00a0James Maddison\u00a0(knee) and\u00a0Dejan Kulusevski\u00a0(knee) are still sidelined.<\/p>\n
