Premier League Gameweek 2 is almost here, and managers already have plenty to think about. Injuries, suspensions and late fitness tests could all influence the weekend's results, with several big names facing a race to be involved.
Here is a quick look at the key team news surrounding all 10 matches. Correct Score Game members can sign in for the latest team-by-team updates, while Gold members get our full detailed briefing for every team.
Crystal Palace v Manchester City
Palace will be without Ismaïla Sarr, taking some serious pace out of their attack against Manchester City. City have availability issues of their own, with Jeremy Doku among those missing.
Liverpool v Nottingham Forest
Liverpool's defensive options remain stretched, with Joe Gomez unlikely to be ready and several longer-term absentees still out. Forest are sweating on the fitness of Morgan Gibbs-White but could have a new attacking option available at Anfield.
Bournemouth v Everton
Bournemouth must make at least one change after Ryan Christie's suspension, while several players remain in the treatment room. Everton also have midfield concerns, including a late fitness question surrounding Christian Norgaard.
Coventry City v Hull City
Haji Wright remains a major absentee for Coventry as they prepare for their first Premier League home game of the season. Hull arrive after an impressive opening victory over Manchester United but are managing a sizeable list of unavailable players.
Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United
This could be one of the most difficult games of the weekend to predict from a team-news perspective. Spurs have several attacking players unavailable or doubtful, while Newcastle are missing important physical presence in Dan Burn and Joelinton.
Chelsea v Brighton & Hove Albion
There is encouraging news for Chelsea over Cole Palmer, but Wesley Fofana's suspension means a defensive change will be required. Brighton also have significant attacking absentees despite their outstanding start to the season.

Leeds United v Brentford
Leeds are still missing Wilfried Gnonto and have other players working their way back towards fitness. Brentford's situation looks more settled, potentially giving them an advantage in continuity for the trip to Elland Road.
Sunderland v Fulham
Sunderland are without Simon Adingra but otherwise have plenty of options as they look for their first points of the season. Fulham receive a useful defensive boost with Joachim Andersen available again following suspension.
Manchester United v Ipswich Town
Manchester United have problems across several areas of the pitch, with Amad Diallo, Matthijs de Ligt and others unavailable. Ipswich, meanwhile, could have Julio Enciso available after his return to training.
Aston Villa v Arsenal
There are questions at both ends of the pitch for Villa, with injuries, suspension and uncertainty surrounding their centre-forward options. Arsenal have defensive concerns of their own, with William Saliba and Jurriën Timber unavailable for the trip to Villa Park.
