Impact Fullkrug is still dealing with his thigh injury, and despite making slight improvements to train with the group partially, the forward will miss yet another match. He will instead focus on recovery during the international break and return when they resume play against Bournemouth on Nov. 22. If no setbacks occur, he appears to be moving in the right direction to be fit by then, likely narrowly missing out Saturday and just not being risked. Callum Wilson will look to earn the start at forward again in Fullkurg's place.

Set for sideline Fullkrug (thigh) is set for an extended spell on the sideline, per manager Nuno Espirito Santo. "Fullkrug is injured and will be out for a while,"

Suffers torn muscle in thigh Fullkrug looks to have suffered a torn muscle in his thigh and is expected to remain out for the time being, confirmed German national team coach Julian Nagelsmann per Sportschau.

Impact This is not good news for Fullkrug, who could miss significant time with a thigh injury. He continues to struggle after six PL games played with no goals while recording just eight shots (three on target) in five starts. This will likely force Jarrod Bowen to play as the No. 9, already scoring three goals on the season.
