Hide AdHarrison Reed - Out
Reed is out with a knee issue. Marco Silva confirmed a week ago: “Yesterday, he got an injury in his knee, and he'll need surgery there. He should be out for 5-6 weeks.”
Joachim Andersen - Doubt
Anderson has a calf issue that will keep him out here barring any surprises, though he has an outside chance and so he goes down as a doubt.
Sander Berge - Doubt
Berge has a knock but could return here.
Guglielmo Vicario - Out
Vicario is out until the new year with an ankle injury. Postecoglou has said: “It's not going to be weeks. It'll be months. With surgery, there are certain timelines. I don't like giving timelines so early in the process, as it puts undue pressure on the player... Once he starts getting [on the training pitch], we'll have a clearer idea.”
Richarlison - Out
The Brazilian will miss another month yet with Postecoglou confirming: “Richarlison, hopefully, he'll be back in the New Year but, again, similar to Micky (van de Ven), we've got to be careful every step of the way.”

Bentancur is suspended for domestic fixtures due to comments made in a media interview.
Micky van de Ven - Out
Van de Ven should return this side of the new year, but he remains out. Postecoglou has said: “Micky is on course, working hard, training. It’s day by day with him; we have to make sure he ticks off all the boxes before he gets integrated into the squad.”
Mikey Moore - Out
Moore has been battling illness and he will remain out. Postecoglou said last week: “We’re still taking it slowly with him; it’s still probably a couple of weeks before he’ll be ready to get properly back into it.”
Cristian Romero - Doubt
Romero has an outside chance of returning, but this one could come too soon. Postecoglou said last week: “Cuti is getting better. He’s a lot closer. We’re hoping he’ll be out there training with the group with a bit of luck by the back end of this week. If not, definitely next week.”
Odobert has undergone surgery on his thigh injury and will be out for a long period of time.
