Manchester City (3) v Brighton (6)

City are close to having a full squad available with Rodri back from suspension and John Stones, who had not played since the Community Shield, in contention after starting for England in midweek. Kevin De Bruyne (thigh) is the champions’ only notable absentee.

Joe Ward, Jefferson Lerma and Cheick Doucoure are set to return for injury-plagued Palace. Dean Henderson, James Tomkins and Nathan Ferguson are out and the game comes too soon for Jeffrey Schlupp, while there is still no timeline for the return of influential attackers Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise.

Nottingham Forest (13) v Luton (17)

Forest defender Gonzalo Montiel is doubtful after sustaining a calf injury while on international duty with Argentina. Serge Aurier is also a doubt, while Taiwo Awoniyi, Nuno Tavares, Danilo, Ola Aina, Felipe and goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey all remain unavailable.

Andros Townsend will be in Luton’s matchday squad for the first time since joining the club on a short-term deal. Mads Andersen is facing a couple of months on the sidelines with a hamstring injury but fellow defender Gabe Osho is available for the first time this season.

Chelsea (11) v Arsenal (2), 5.30 – Live on Sky Sports Premier League and Main Event

Armando Broja, who returned from a knee injury earlier this season, has suffered a setback and is out. Benoit Badiashile, Axel Disasi, Nicolas Jackson and Reece James will be assessed but Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo are available after international duty with Argentina and Ecuador respectively.

Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka could return from a hamstring injury and Leandro Trossard is also in contention after his own hamstring complaint. William Saliba’s toe injury is unlikely to rule him out with only long-term absentee Jurrien Timber expected to be missing.

Sheffield Utd (20) v Manchester Utd (10) – Live on Sky Sports Premier League and Main Event

Sheffield United have seen Chris Basham (ankle), John Egan (Achilles) and Tom Davis (thigh) added to their injury list, with all three having had surgery. George Baldock is a doubt but Ben Osborn could be fit enough for the bench.

The visitors are without Casemiro after the midfielder sustained a knock while playing for Brazil. Raphael Varane and Sergio Reguilon are available but Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martinez and Aaron Wan-Bissaka remain sidelined and Jadon Sancho has been training away from the first team.

West Ham full-backs Aaron Cresswell and Ben Johnson are back in training after spells out but are unlikely to figure. The Hammers are set to be unchanged from the 2-2 draw with Newcastle before the international break.
