DREAM TEAM brings you all the latest injury, suspension and availability news for Gameweek 22 in one convenient location. David Raya is a doubt ahead of Arsenal's highly-anticipated clash with Manchester City this weekend. The Spanish goalkeeper, who features in 19.5% of teams at the time of writing, didn't feature against Girona in midweek and is due for an assessment on Saturday. Myles Lewis-Skelly had his much-discussed red card rescinded upon appeal and is therefore available.
As for the defending champions, Pep Guardiola expects to have the same squad available from Wednesday night's win over Club Brugge, meaning Ruben Dias and Jeremy Doku remain sidelined. Oscar Bobb has resumed full training but it's not clear when he will be reintroduced to the playing squad. Joe Gomez, Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota all returned to training ahead of Liverpool's double Gameweek but the trio will be assessed before Arne Slot makes final decisions.
Thomas Frank was pleased to confirm that Ethan Pinnock, Kevin Schade and Christian Norgaard will all be available to face Tottenham on Sunday. However, the unfortunate Rico Henry faces several weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury. As for Spurs, James Maddison and Radu Dragusin are the latest names added to the club's extensive injury list - the latter was forced off against Elfsborg on Thursday night with a jarred knee.
The England midfielder is expected to be unavailable for two to three weeks with a calf strain - he's currently the most transferred-out player in Dream Team ahead of Gameweek 22. In more positive news for North London outfit, Micky van de Ven made his comeback in the Europa League and several other players due to return in February. Unai Emery offered an estimated recovery time of three weeks for Matty Cash in his Friday press conference.
Aston Villa's head coach also said that Tyrone Mings' injury was "not really bad" but ruled the centre-back out of the Villains' trip to Wolves. The hosts will be without striker Jorgen Strand Larsen at Molineux following his withdrawal at Arsenal last weekend with a hamstring issue - Joao Gomes is suspended. David Moyes told journalists that Dominic Calvert-Lewin will be sidelined for "a number of weeks" and revealed that Orel Mangala (ACL) is out for the rest of the season.
But combative midfielder Tim Iroegbunam may be involved in Everton's matchday squad for Leicester's visit to Goodison Park on Saturday. Crystal Palace will be without key man Eberechi Eze for their trip to Old Trafford. Oliver Glasner will be able to call upon midfield pair Adam Wharton and Matheus Franca if required but Cheick Doucoure and Chadi Riad are both ruled out for the remainder of the campaign.
Lucas Paqueta is due for an assessment while Graham Potter is "hopeful" Jarrod Bowen may be able to play some part for West Ham at Stamford Bridge on Monday night.
