Who is missing this weekend: 154 players out across 15 matches

The injury and suspension report covers 15 of the 76 matches on our board this weekend (26-27 September). Across them, 154 players are ruled out and 51 are doubtful. Inter Miami have the longest list: 9 players out for their match against Columbus Crew.

The favourites going in short-handed

In the 15 matches the report covers, the model makes 5 sides the favourite at 45% or more to win. Every one of them is missing at least one player; these 4 are the most short-handed:

• Vancouver Whitecaps, 57% to win at home to DC United, are without 8 players: E. Ocampo, J. Badwal, K. G. Cabrera Nakamura and 5 more.
• Philadelphia Union, 53% to win at home to Orlando City SC, are without 6 players: A. Blake, C. Sullivan, D. Jean Jacques and 3 more.
• Charlotte, 45% to win at home to Chicago Fire, are without 6 players: A. John, A. Johnson, I. Toklomati and 3 more.
• Nashville SC, 54% to win at home to Toronto FC, are without 4 players: A. Qasem, B. Schwake, P. Yazbek and 1 more.

Of these, the model is surest about Vancouver Whitecaps at 57%, and that probability does not yet account for the 8 players they are missing.

About this list

Taken from our data provider's injury and suspension report on the day this was published; "doubtful" means the player may still be named in the squad. Matches in competitions the report does not cover are left out rather than listed as clear. The model's probabilities do not yet account for absences. How they are produced is in the methodology.
