Injuries & suspensions update ahead of Gameweek 33: Diogo Dalot among absentees
DREAM TEAM brings you all the latest injury, suspension and availability news for Gameweek 33 in one convenient location.
Bukayo Saka is currently the second-most transferred-out player ahead of Saturday’s 11am deadline.
Many gaffers made early moves when Arsenal’s No7 suffered a nasty foul at Portman Road but he recovered in time to play the last half an hour against Crystal Palace in midweek.
The England winger is virtually guaranteed to start against PSG this coming Gameweek.
Pep Guardiola told reporters that Ederson is more likely to return against Wolves in Gameweek 34, meaning Stefan Orteta will almost certainly start against Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup on Sunday.
The decorated tactician revealed that Erling Haaland is getting “better and better” but the prolific striker is yet to resume team training.
Forest will be without Ryan Yates and Neco Williams (both suspended) while Nuno Espirito Santo vaguely referred to “a lot of concerns” when asked about injuries.
Diogo Dalot won’t travel with Manchester United to Bournemouth this weekend having picked up a calf injury.
Ruben Amorim didn’t give a timescale for the Portuguese defender’s recovery but seemed to suggest there’s little chance of him making Thursday’s trip to Bilbao either.
Concussion protocols prevent Jan Paul van Hecke from playing for Brighton at home to West Ham but the Seagulls may be able to call upon Tariq Lamptey and Joel Veltman if they train well today.
Tottenham will have “pretty much” the same squad available from Gameweek 32 with Sunday’s trip to Anfield coming too soon for Son Heung-min.
Whether the South Korean forward will feature against Bodo Glimt in the Europa League semi-finals on Thursday night is unclear.
As for Liverpool, Joe Gomez is the only member of the squad flagged as unavailable
Malo Gusto suffered a minor injury last time and will not represent Chelsea at home to Everton on Saturday.
The Toffees will be without first-choice centre-back James Tarkowski, who won’t feature again this season having undergone surgery on his hamstring.
Orel Mangala, Jesper Lindstrom and Dominic Calvert-Lewin also remain sidelined.
Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, Jose Sa and Hwang Hee-chan all returned to Wolves training this week ahead of Leicester’s visit to Molineux.
The former’s absence allowed Matheus Cunha to regain his place in the starting line-up last weekend and it will be interesting to see how Vitor Pereira views things if the French midfielder is deemed fit enough to start.
Eddie Howe will return to the dugout at St James’ Park when Newcastle take on Ipswich this Saturday and he believes centre-back Fabian Schar will be fine following his substitution at Villa Park.
Sven Botman has stepped up his recovery but remains in the “early stages” of his comeback.
As for the Tractor Boys, regular left-back Leif Davis begins a three-game suspension after his straight red card for serious foul play against Arsenal.
Kieran McKenna will make a late decision on striker Liam Delap, the club’s top scorer this season.
Rodrigo Muniz has been ruled out for Fulham this weekend, leaving the door open for Raul Jimenez to start up front at Southampton.
