Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City are all in action tonight while Tottenham are back in business tomorrow, before a full round of fixtures over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>And with games coming thick and fast, the threat of imminent bans are looming large for plenty of Premier League players. Current rules state that players who collect five cards in the first half of the campaign will be handed a one-match suspension &#8211; with the ban being competition-specific.<\/p>\n<p>There are therefore five more games for stars to try and avoid one-match bans, with 14 rounds of fixtures having already been played.<\/p>\n<p>Heading into tonight&#8217;s matches, there are Man Utd and Chelsea players at risk of a brief ban. Bruno Fernandes faces a suspension if he picks up a yellow against the Blues, while Mauricio Pochettino will be nervous over Enzo Fernandez and Raheem Sterling. And with a match that has so much at stake, don&#8217;t be surprised if we see yellows at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5099962.jpg?r=1701775330337\"><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Destiny Udogie will have to be on his best behaviour when Tottenham take on bitter London rivals West Ham at home on Thursday night. Furthermore, Newcastle will be sweating over Kieran Trippier and Sean Longstaff when they take on an Everton side motivated following their 10-point deduction.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham take on Newcastle at home on Sunday afternoon, so both managers will be hoping they&#8217;re dealt no setbacks ahead of the weekend&#8217;s action in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson currently leads the way with seven yellow cards in the Premier League, while Anthony Gordon and West Ham duo Edson Alvarez and Emerson both have six.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5099978.jpg?r=1701775330409\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Chelsea transfer blueprint ruined as Barca join race for Champions League hero[TRANSFER NEWS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd rival Chelsea for Andre Onana replacement with Erik ten Hag unconvinced[TRANSFER NEWS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Chelsea ace Wesley Fofana rattled Adam Lallana as new post-match footage emerges[REACTION] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The trio above will now be hoping they don&#8217;t pick up slightly longer bans later on in the season.
