Injuries are part and parcel of football but, like every season, some teams tend to be impacted more than others.
Indeed, data from Premier Injuries has ranked Newcastle United among the Premier League clubs to be affected by injuries during the 2021/22 campaign.

Trippier too returned for the remaining three games of the term - starting the 2-1 victory at Burnley on the final day.
