SATURDAY 20 SEPTEMBER

QPR v STOKE, 12.45pm

Napoli loan signing Eduardo Vargas should recover from having stitches in his head to make his home debut for QPR's clash against Stoke.

The Chile striker suffered a clash of heads in midweek action for Rangers' Under-21s.

Boss Harry Redknapp expects Joey Barton and Jordon Mutch to beat niggles in time to face Mark Hughes' side at Loftus Road.

QPR squad: Green, McCarthy, Hill, Dunne, Ferdinand, Onuoha, Caulker, Suk-young, Traore, Isla, Henry, Sandro, Barton, Fer, Mutch, Hoilett, Phillips, Kranjcar, Wright-Phillips, Austin, Zamora, Vargas.

Stoke have doubts over forward Jon Walters (calf) and midfielder Marko Arnautovic (foot) ahead of the trip to QPR.

Midfielder Stephen Ireland should be in contention following a rib muscle injury.

Defender Geoff Cameron (hernia) and forward Peter Odemwingie (knee) both remain sidelined following surgery.

Stoke squad: Begovic, Bardsley, Wilson, Shawcross, Pieters, Whelan, Walters, Krkic, Moses, Nzonzi, Crouch, Sorensen, Huth, Adam, Arnautovic, Assaidi, Biram Diouf, Muniesa, Ireland.

ARSENAL v ASTON VILLA, 3pm

Arsenal expect to have defender Calum Chambers (tonsillitis) and midfielder Mathieu Flamini (groin) available for the trip to Aston Villa after not playing in the midweek away European defeat to Dortmund.

Midfielder Jack Wilshere should shake off an ankle knock, but defender Nacho Monreal (back) remains out.

Full-back Mathieu Debuchy is sidelined by an ankle ligament injury, the full extent of which is still being assessed and striker Yaya Sanogo (hamstring) is still not match fit, while winger Theo Walcott (knee) continues his recovery. Midfielder Serge Gnabry (knee) remains out and France forward Olivier Giroud (fractured foot) is a long-term absentee.

Arsenal squad: Szczesny, Gibbs, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Chambers, Arteta, Wilshere, Ramsey, Sanchez, Ozil, Welbeck, Ospina, Rosicky, Campbell, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Cazorla, Podolski, Flamini, Bellerin.

Ron Vlaar is a doubt for Aston Villa's with the calf injury which forced him to miss last weekend's win at Liverpool.

The skipper will be assessed but Nathan Baker is on standby to deputise again. Christian Benteke has returned to training but will not play as the striker recovers from five months out following a ruptured Achilles.

Libor Kozak is still sidelined as he continues his progress from a broken leg and had a routine check-up at hospital on Friday but Joe Cole has shaken off a calf problem and could feature.

Aston Villa squad: Guzan, Given, Hutton, Baker, Okore, Clark, Herd, Senderos, Bacuna, Lowton, Cissokho, Cleverley, Westwood, Delph, Sanchez, Richardson, Cole Grealish, N'Zogbia, Weimann, Agbonlahor, Bent.

BURNLEY v SUNDERLAND, 3pm

Burnley striker Danny Ings will miss the meeting with Sunderland after suffering a hamstring injury in last weekend's draw against Crystal Palace.

Ings joins long-term absentee Sam Vokes (knee) on the sidelines meaning Marvin Sordell and Ashley Barnes come into contention.

Matt Taylor is also out with a niggling Achilles problem but loan duo Nathan Chalobah and Michael Keane are eyeing debuts.

Burnley squad: Heaton, Trippier, Lafferty, Ward, Duff, Shackell, Mee, Wallace, Marney, Kightly, Cisak, Jones, Sordell, Reid, Jutkiewicz, Chalobah, Boyd, Gilks, Keane, Long, Barnes, Arfield.

Sunderland head coach Gus Poyet faces a series of difficult decisions ahead of the trip.

The Uruguayan has no significant injury doubts as he looks for a first league win of the campaign and, as a result, needs to decide whether or not to change the side which started last Saturday's 2-2 draw with Tottenham.

Defender Billy Jones and midfielders Will Buckley and Jordi Gomez are among those men pushing for starting berths, although Poyet has indicated striker Connor Wickham, who was effective as a lone striker last weekend, will retain the role.

Sunderland squad: Mannone, Pantilimon, Jones, Van Aanholt, Brown, O'Shea, Vergini, Coates, Roberge, Cattermole, Bridcutt, Rodwell, Gomez, Larsson, Johnson, Buckley, Giaccherini, Alvarez, Mavrias, Wickham, Fletcher, Altidore, Graham.

NEWCASTLE v HULL, 3pm

Under-pressure Newcastle boss Alan Pardew will have to rely upon the same group of players which capitulated at Southampton last weekend as he looks for victory over Hull.

Pardew will once again be without midfielders Siem de Jong (thigh) and Rolando Aarons (hamstring) with the former facing months on the sidelines.

Striker Papiss Cisse is closing in on a return from a long-term knee injury, but fellow frontman Adam Campbell (hernia) is likely to be missing for some time and full-back Davide Santon is still out as he continues his recovery from a knee problem.

Newcastle squad: Krul, Elliot, Janmaat, Dummett, Haidara, Coloccini, Williamson, S. Taylor, Tiote, Anita, Abeid, Gouffran, Sissoko, Colback, Cabella, Obertan, Ameobi, Riviere, Perez, Armstrong.

Hull will make a late check on record signing Abel Hernandez but expect him to be ready for action.

Hernandez scored on his debut against West Ham but manager Steve Bruce admits he was left exhausted by his introduction to English football and will assess his match fitness on the morning of the game.

Hatem Ben Arfa is ineligible to face his parent club but fellow loanne Gaston Ramirez could make a full debut.

Hull squad: McGregor, Harper, Davies, Dawson, Rosenior, Robertson, Diame, McShane, Elmohamady, Huddlestone, Livermore, Ince, Brady, Jelavic, Aluko, Sagbo, Quinn, Meyler, Hernandez, Ramirez.

SWANSEA v SOUTHAMPTON, 3pm

Argentina defender Federico Fernandez stands by to make his first Premier League start for Swansea following his £8million move from Napoli last month.

Fernandez came on at half-time in the 4-2 defeat at Chelsea last weekend after Jordi Amat damaged knee ligaments and should slot into central defence alongside skipper Ashley Williams against Southampton at the Liberty Stadium.

Amat has been ruled out for six weeks and the only other change from the Chelsea defeat could see the return of Wilfried Bony for Bafetimbi Gomis. The Ivorian dropped to the bench at Stamford Bridge following his late return from African Nations Cup duty.

Swansea squad: Fabianski, Rangel, Fernandez, Williams, Taylor, Ki, Shelvey, Routledge, Dyer, Sigurdsson, Bony, Tremmel, Tiendalli, Gomis, Carroll, Emnes, Montero, Bartley, Richards, Fulton, King, Kingsley.

Sadio Mane continues to be absent as Southampton travel to Wales.

Mane has received his work permit and joined up with his team-mates on Friday and will be assessed to see if he can make his debut in next Tuesday's Capital One Cup clash at Arsenal.

Shane Long

Striker Shane Long has shaken off a head knock.

Southampton squad: Forster, Davis, Clyne, Yoshida, Fonte, Gardos, Alderweireld, Bertrand, Schneiderlin, Davis, Wanyama, Reed, Ward-Prowse, Stephens, Cork, Ramirez, Tadic, Rodriguez, Long, Pelle.

WEST HAM v LIVERPOOL, 5.30pm

Sam Allardyce has none of his injured players returning to fitness in time to face Liverpool.

West Ham will still be without a host of names for the game at Upton Park, with Matt Jarvis (thigh), Andy Carroll (ankle), Kevin Nolan (shoulder) and Joey O'Brien (knee) all missing and James Collins (hamstring) still a doubt.

But Allardyce could yet hand full debuts to Carl Jenkinson, Alex Song and Morgan Amalfitano after the trio all came off the bench in Monday night's 2-2 draw at Hull.

West Ham squad: Adrian, Jaaskelainen, Cresswell, Reid, Burke, Tomkins, Collins, Demel, Jenkinson, Noble, Kouyate, Song, Poyet, Morrison, Amalfitano, Downing, Vaz Te, Cole, Zarate, Sakho, Valencia.

Defender Martin Skrtel returns to the Liverpool squad after recovering from a knee injury which has sidelined him for three matches.

Fellow defender Glen Johnson (thigh) is unlikely to be ready to come back while Jon Flangan has undergone an operation on a troublesome knee.

Midfielder Joe Allen has still not recovered from a knee injury sustained on international duty while Daniel Sturridge is edging closer to a return from a thigh strain.

Liverpool squad: Mignolet, Manquillo, Sakho, Lovren, Moreno, Gerrard, Henderson, Lallana, Markovic, Sterling, Balotelli, Jones, Skrtel, Toure, Enrique, Lucas, Coutinho, Borini, Suso, Lambert.

SUNDAY 21 SEPTEMBER

LEICESTER v MANCHESTER UNITED, 1.30pm

Teams to follow...

TOTTENHAM v WEST BROM, 1.30pm

West Brom's injury worries have eased with their full squad training this week for the first time this season.

Defender Joleon Lescott stands by to make his debut at Tottenham while Youssouf Mulumbu has shaken off a hamstring injury along with Victor Anichebe (hernia).

Midfielder Silvestre Varela could be involved after the summer signing from Porto boosted his fitness while Stephane Sessegnon has recovered after a ball in the face caused him to have blood on his eye and miss last week's 2-0 defeat to Everton.

West Brom squad: Foster, Myhill, Pocognoli, Gamboa, Dawson, Lescott, McAuley, Olsson, Davidson, Wisdom, Baird, Morrison, Mulumbu, Brunt, Blanco, Valera, Sessegnon, Samaras, Ideye, Anichebe, Berahino.

A dead leg makes Andros Townsend a doubt for Tottenham.

The England winger picked up the knock in Thursday's Europa League clash at Partizan Belgrade and will be assessed before the White Hart Lane encounter.

Right-back Kyle Walker remains absent with a hip injury, although Emmanuel Adebayor, Younes Kaboul, Mousa Dembele, Nacer Chadli and Danny Rose return to the squad after being rested for the trip to Serbia.

Tottenham squad: Lloris, Vorm, Dier, Naughton, Chiriches, Fazio, Kaboul, Vertonghen, Rose, Davies, Stambouli, Bentaleb, Paulinho, Dembele, Lamela, Lennon, Chadli, Townsend, Eriksen, Adebayor, Kane, Soldado.

EVERTON v CRYSTAL PALACE, 4pm

Samuel Eto'o could make his first start at Goodison Park as Everton boss Roberto Martinez looks to make it three straight wins against Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

Eto'o impressed after coming on as substitute for the final 22 minutes of Thursday night's 4-1 UEFA Europa League win over Wolfsburg and Martinez believes he is now ready for a full 90 minutes.

Everton's only doubt is right-back Seamus Coleman, who sustained a knock on the head against the German side and will undergo a late fitness test.

Everton squad: Howard, Coleman, Distin, Jagielka, Baines, Hibbert, Barry, McCarthy, McGeady, Mirallas, Naismith, Lukaku, Robles, Stones, Alcaraz, Gibson, Osman, Besic, Pienaar, Eto'o.

Neil Warnock will give forward Marouane Chamakh every chance to prove his fitness ahead of the trip to Everton.

Marouane Chamakh

The Morocco international has been struggling with a hamstring injury and will not be risked if there is a chance the problem could flare up once more at Goodison Park.

Deadline day acquisition Zeki Fryers is still waiting for his Palace debut whilst Kevin Doyle is in contention for his first start and Andrew Johnson could yet feature against one of his former clubs.

Crystal Palace squad: Speroni, Hennessey, Mariappa, Kelly, Fryers, Ward, Delaney, Dann, Hangeland, Jedinak, McArthur, Bannan, Ledley, Williams, Bolasie, Thomas, Puncheon, Gayle, Campbell, Johnson, Doyle, Chamakh, Zaha.

MANCHESTER CITY v CHELSEA, 4pm

Manchester City are again without striker Stevan Jovetic (hamstring) and midfielder Fernando (groin) for Sunday's clash with leaders Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium.

Forward Edin Dzeko has also been troubled by a back problem since the midweek Champions League loss at Bayern Munich but City expect him to be fit.

On-loan midfielder Frank Lampard, Chelsea's record goalscorer, could face his former club while £32million defender Eliaquim Mangala still awaits his City debut.

City squad: Hart, Caballero, Zabaleta, Sagna, Kompany, Demichelis, Mangala, Boyata, Clichy, Kolarov, Silva, Nasri, Milner, Navas, Toure, Lampard, Fernandinho, Aguero, Dzeko.

Diego Costa will start for Chelsea despite a hamstring problem.

The striker, who has scored seven goals in four Premier League matches, was only a substitute in Wednesday's Champions League draw with Schalke and cannot play more than one full game a week at present.

Manager Jose Mourinho reported no other injury problems.

Chelsea squad: Courtois, Cech, Ivanovic, Luis, Fabregas, Zouma, Ake, Ramires, Oscar, Hazard, Drogba, Mikel, Schurrle, Salah, Remy, Costa, Matic, Willian, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta, Christensen, Boga, Baker, Schwarzer.
