Several teams in the bottom half of the table are dealing with injury problems, which could affect their survival hopes.
As the Premier League gears up for another thrilling weekend of football, several teams are contending with injury concerns. Arsenal is grappling with injury woes, particularly in their attack as they are without a recognised striker. Bukayo Saka is sidelined with a hamstring issue, while Gabriel Jesus is out for the season following an ACL injury. Kai Havertz is dealing with a hamstring problem, and defender Takehiro Tomiyasu is unavailable due to a knee injury.
In addition, several teams in the bottom half of the table are dealing with injury problems, which could affect their survival hopes. Relegation threatened Ipswich Town are missing key players, while Everton will be without their key striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin. Brentford and Wolves also have multiple absentees, which will limit their options.
Notably, Liverpool also faces significant injury challenges ahead of the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United. Trent Alexander-Arnold has been ruled out due to an ankle injury sustained during the Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain, leaving manager Arne Slot without his right-back for the final. Joe Gomez and Conor Bradley are ruled out while center back Ibrahima Konate remains doubtful.
