Premier League Injury Table

      Brighton and Hove Albion: January signing Alexis Mac Allister "has trained well this week" and Graham Potter will make a decision on his involvement tomorrow. "He's had a busy time, but he's an intelligent player and has good quality." Graham Potter will make a late call on Dale Stephens who is still struggling with the hamstring issue which ruled him out of GW26. Long-term absentee Jose Izquierdo (knee) did join the group on their warm-weather training camp in Tenerife, although there are no guarantees that the winger will play again this season. New signing Tariq Lamptey could feature; he is "explosive and sharp" and brings something new to the squad said the Brighton boss.            Southampton: Kyle Walker-Peters picked up a calf injury on his Saints debut and will miss the game against Villa. Nathan Redmond (groin) is out for the next month (at least) while Sofiane Boufal has a heel problem and could be a late decision. Yet to train since limping off versus Burnley.             Aston Villa: Tyrone Mings is available again following a bout of tonsillitis. “He’s a big player for us so it was a big miss on Sunday. He has the qualities to be a real leader." Keinan Davis (hamstring) will start training on Monday. Dean Smith reveals John McGinn has been running on the Alter-G (Anti-gravity treadmill) and will be looking to run outside on the grass over the weekend. "We’re taking it day-by-day.”             Leicester City: Ryan Bennett will be included in the Leicester squad on Saturday; the centre-back was ineligible against his parent club last weekend. Wilfried Ndidi remains on the sidelines and Rodgers confirms he is "still in a process to get fit" and is unwilling to put a timeline on his return. "It’s about weight-bearing. He’s doing work inside, and then you can do work outside, then it’s about training with the team. We want to make sure he’s absolutely right." Matty James will be considered with Hamza Choudhury (suspended) also missing. Other than that, there are no fresh injury concerns: "All the players are fine."             AFC Bournemouth: Howe: "The long-termers are out, no one will return for this game but there is a group of four who are making good progress." David Brooks has stepped up his recovery and had a “really good week” of training; the midfielder is running outside but is not yet involved with the group. His ankle has felt stronger," but he still has some way to go. Lloyd Kelly and Arnaut Danjuma are “getting closer" although Saturday comes too soon. Lerma returns after suspension.            Newcastle United: Injury problems beginning to ease: “It’s the first time we’ve had 18 or 19 players training for weeks so it’s a welcome boost to everybody. We think Jonjo [Shelvey] and Emil [Krafth] might join in training next week and we all hope Andy Carroll is going to be fine in the not too distant future too.” Steve Bruce says Ciaran Clark suffered a "nasty" ligament injury at Arsenal. "We're not too sure how long [he'll be out]. He goes to see a specialist this week but is in a boot at the moment and really badly twisted his ankle." Dwight Gayle (hamstring) has trained all week and the striker is in contention along with Yoshinori Muto. Christian Atsu could miss out due to illness but Joelinton is expected to recover from a "bit of a sore thigh".            Burnley: Sean Dyche confirms that Gudmundsson (hamstring) will be back in the squad for the game vs Bournemouth. Chris Wood is rated touch-and-go after suffering a hamstring injury at St Mary's last weekend, but Matt Lowton (knee) and Ashley Barnes both miss out.
