Premier League Injury Table

      Chelsea: Ben Chilwell, Mateo Kovacic and N'Golo Kante will not feature at Vicarage Road. Meanwhile, Thomas Tuchel admits that he will need to check on a couple of players ahead of the game. "We have a tight communication with the medical and fitness department, and we tried to predict the load, look at who is overloaded and underloaded, and from there we see what we will need in the next game. As you know, we take it step by step." A decision will be taken on Reece James, Jorginho and Timo Werner closer to kick-off. "They all finished training with us today, but there will be some last-minute decisions on those players for sure." Romelu Lukaku has had no reaction from his ankle. "He is ready to progress in his minutes." And finally, Tuchel on his options now that Chilwell is sidelined. "Suddenly, if one has a longer injury like Ben, it seems like we don't have enough. Can Marcos play eight matches every three days? Maybe not. Callum can play on the left side as a wing-back, and we have some other ideas to try."            West Ham United: "We've got a doubt about Aaron Cresswell," who collided with the goal post on Sunday. "But he's been out today so we're hopeful that he's not too bad. We'll see how he is," said David Moyes. Angelo Ogbonna is the only other known injury concern.             Southampton: Stuart Armstrong is the only expected injury absentee for Wednesday. Jack Stephens has returned to the training pitches; however, the game may come too soon after more than two months out. Ibrahima Diallo is fine despite rolling his ankle in training on Friday, a setback that meant he was confined to the bench at Anfield. Moussa Djenepo and Elyounoussi come into the managers' thinking after missing out in GW13 due to personal reasons.             Norwich City: Mathias Normann has been ruled out of the Newcastle game because of a pelvic problem. "He'll see a specialist to get the best advice. We'll wait and see, but hopefully not a long one," mused Dean Smith. Lukas Rupp could be his replacement at St James' Park. "Lukas came on and played really well, showing myself and Craig the strengths and abilities he's got. Pierre (Lees Melou) has been good in training, and Jacob Sorensen has been showing his strengths." Christoph Zimmermann came off crutches last week, and he continues to step up his recovery from ankle surgery. Sam Byram is building fitness with the Under-23s.            Newcastle United: "We have the two suspensions [Jamaal Lascelles and Matt Ritchie], and they're going to be big misses for us with the experience they have," said Eddie Howe. That could mean a recall for Jacob Murphy and Ciaran Clark. Otherwise, the squad should be very similar to Saturday. "I don't think there are any fresh injuries from [Arsenal]." Paul Dummett remains on the sidelines, but Dwight Gayle could return to the squad.            Southampton: Jack Stephens has re-joined the group after a two-month layoff. "He is back in training which is the first week in a long time," Ralph Hasenhüttl told reporters. "This is good for him, good for us. In the moment, it's quite tough to get into the [matchday squad] as we have a lot of alternatives. It takes a little bit [of time]. I try to give them longer on the pitch; there's no rush and no hurry." Nathan Redmond is in contention following the birth of his son, while Moussa Djenepo has recovered from a minor knock. A calf complaint will keep Stuart Armstrong on the sidelines.             Watford: Ismaïla Sarr (knee) and Nicolas Nkoulou (hamstring) will miss Sunday’s trip to Leicester, although the extent of their injuries are still being evaluated. Christian Kabasele re-joined training this week, and he continues to build fitness following a lengthy spell out. Ken Sema has started running outside as he steps up his recovery from a knee (MCL) problem. Francisco Sierralta is working on the first stage of his rehabilitation following a minor hamstring injury. Kwadwo Baah (ankle fracture) is in the early stages of recovery, while Peter Etebo is progressing in the gym. Juraj Kucka is in contention, having missed the Manchester United victory due to a one-match suspension.
