Tottenham are far from alone in struggling with injuries, and ones to key players, this season.
Newcastle have lost the most days of any club to injury, and Eddie Howe’s squad has been stretched as they continue to compete on four fronts.
As a result, the Magpies’ away form in particular has been badly affected, with Howe’s side winning just twice on the road in the league this season.
Leaders Arsenal have also been among the biggest victims of the amount of days lost to injury, and total number of injuries.
However, their squad depth has managed to mitigate much of the impact – with the Gunners top of both the domestic standings and the Champions League league phase.
Among teams towards the bottom of the Premier League, Nottingham Forest and Leeds United have been the most badly hit.
Collectively, England’s top flight has lost 2,157 days fewer to injury than compared to the same stage last season – although the severity of certain common injuries appears to be increasing when examining data across a whole season.
According to Premier Injuries, occurrences of hamstring injuries dropped by 23% in 2024-25, but 60% of those injuries required a minimum of 30 days to recover – the highest ratio since they began recording such data in 2010.
