Have injuries affected title challengers Manchester City, Arsenal or Liverpool most this season?
Liverpool full-back Conor Bradley is expected to be sidelined for up to three weeks after sustaining an ankle injury during the 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace on Sunday - the latest injury to hit Jurgen Klopp's side this term. In fact, Liverpool have lost 1,252 days from injured players during the campaign - considerably more than Arsenal and Manchester City , according to Premier Injuries data.
The 25-year-old was a doubt for the crucial clash against Bayern Munich in their Champions League quarter-final second leg on Wednesday after the Gunners managed a 2-2 draw at the Emirates last week, but the Norweigan trained with the team on Tuesday. In terms of long-term absentees, summer signing Jurrien Timber started in the season-opening 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest but limped off after 50 minutes with an anterior cruciate injury and has been missing ever since.
