Will Hughes

Crystal Palace midfielder Will Hughes (30) is facing a late fitness test ahead of Sunday’s match against Newcastle after being forced off with an injury in Thursday’s draw against Fulham. According to manager Oliver Glasner, Hughes felt widespread fatigue around his hip, with discomfort shifting between his hamstring, adductor and thigh, suggesting a fatigue-related issue rather than a clear-cut injury. Further assessments will determine his availability, but Palace are hopeful he can avoid missing time, especially with limited midfield options already. A decision on Hughes is expected closer to kickoff. (Source: Sleeper Football News)
