Premier League Suspensions Tracker: Who’s at Risk in the 2025/26 Season?

September 26, 2025 Kris Isaksen

As the 2025/26 Premier League season reaches the six-game mark, disciplinary issues are already shaping squad selections. From early red cards to mounting yellow card tallies, here’s how each team is faring when it comes to suspensions and players walking the suspension tightrope—starting from the bottom of the table and working our way up.

Wolverhampton Wanderers

Wolves defender Toti Gomes was the first—and so far, only—player from the squad to be sent off this season, receiving a red card in their second fixture against Bournemouth. Aside from him, only Matt Doherty and Joao Gomes have picked up more than one yellow card, leaving most of the squad in the clear for now.

West Ham United

Tomas Soucek’s straight red card against Tottenham was the standout disciplinary moment for the Hammers so far. Max Kilman has been booked twice, while Lucas Paqueta and El Hadji Malick Diouf have each been cautioned once.

Tottenham Hotspur

Richarlison has collected three yellow cards across all competitions, but just one in the Premier League. Cristian Romero and Djed Spence are the only Spurs players with two bookings, keeping most of the squad relatively disciplined.

Sunderland

Newly promoted Sunderland have shown fight on the pitch—and a bit of fire too. Left-back Reinildo saw red against Aston Villa, while Granit Xhaka is the only player with more than one yellow card so far.

Nottingham Forest

Forest may have already undergone a managerial shake-up, but their discipline remains intact. Only Neco Williams has picked up multiple bookings, with the rest of the squad steering clear of suspension danger.

Newcastle United

Anthony Gordon's red card versus Liverpool remains Newcastle’s only sending off this season. Bruno Guimaraes leads the yellow card tally with two, while four other players have received one booking each.

Manchester United

Discipline has been a strong point for Erik ten Hag’s side, with only three players booked to date. However, Casemiro has already picked up two yellows in one match, earning a one-game suspension.

Manchester City

City's players have shown remarkable restraint, with no individual collecting more than one yellow card. Seven players have been booked in total, reflecting a team that's tough but controlled.

Liverpool

Liverpool’s perfect league start was briefly overshadowed by Hugo Ekitike’s red card in a cup tie, which sees him suspended for the next league match. In the league, Milos Kerkez, Ryan Gravenberch, and Conor Bradley have each been booked twice.

Leeds United

Leeds have found their scoring form—and kept things clean on the disciplinary front. Jayden Bogle is the only player with two yellow cards, and just four others have been booked at all.

Fulham

Sasa Lukic is the Cottagers’ most cautioned player with three bookings so far. No one else in the squad has received more than a single yellow card.

Everton

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall leads the entire Premier League in bookings, sitting on four yellow cards just five games in. Tim Iroegbunam follows with three, putting both midfielders on the brink of suspension.

Crystal Palace

Will Hughes is closest to suspension with three yellow cards to his name. Jean-Philippe Mateta, Daniel Munoz, and Tyrick Mitchell each have two, keeping things relatively under control.

Chelsea

Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez was sent off against Manchester United but has already served his ban. Other than that, Chelsea’s caution list is short, with Jorrel Hato and Tyrique George on two yellows apiece.

Burnley

Burnley’s only red card came when Lesley Ugochukwu was dismissed after two yellows against Liverpool. No other players have seen red or are close to facing suspension.

Brighton and Hove Albion

Diego Gomez and Faith Kadioglu are Brighton’s only players with more than one yellow card. While other players have been cautioned, no one else is close to facing a ban.

Bournemouth

Midfielder Tyler Adams is the main concern for Bournemouth with three yellow cards in five games. David Brooks and Alex Jimenez are the only other players to have received more than one.

Aston Villa

Ezri Konsa has already served a suspension after a red card against Newcastle. Matty Cash has two yellows to his name, but the rest of Unai Emery’s side is clear for now.

Arsenal

The Gunners are suspension-free heading into game-week six. Jurrien Timber and Riccardo Calafiori are the most booked so far with two yellows each, but neither is in immediate danger.
