The 27 Premier League stars including Wolves and Nottingham Forest men currently walking suspension tight rope

Three Wolves players are currently at risk of facing a one-match suspension in the Premier League.

Premier League suspension rules state that any player who accumulates five yellow cards before match week 19 will be issued with a one-game ban. 10 yellows before game-week 32 will result in a two-match ban. The suspension for five or 10 yellow cards is specific to the Premier League and cannot be served in the FA Cup or League Cup.

Nelson Semedo has already fallen foul of the rule. He picked up his fifth yellow card of the campaign in the 4-2 defeat to AFC Bournemouth and as a result, he will miss their trip to Goodison Park to face Everton.

All 20 clubs have played 13 games so far this season, and so there are still six matches for players to navigate through. At the moment there are 27 players that are walking a tightrope on four yellow cards.

Rayan Ait-Nouri, Joao Gomes, and Toti Gomes must avoid picking up a card. Ait-Nouri and Joao Gomes have played in all 13 games this season, and Toti has only missed two matches, and so a suspension albeit one game would be a big loss.

The trio will have to avoid bookings in the upcoming fixtures against Everton, West Ham, Ipswich Town, Leicester City, Man United, and Spurs. Club captain Mario Lemina is on three yellow cards and might find himself in a similar position before the end of the year. His yellow against Bournemouth at the weekend was his first in two months however.

Wolves, along with Bournemouth and West Ham have the most players at risk of a suspension with three players apiece. A yellow card for Lucas Paqueta or Tomas Soucek in the midweek round of fixtures could see them miss their game with Wolves on Monday on December 9.

No Aston Villa players are at a major risk of a ban, but should Adam Lallana get carded, he’d miss the trip to Villa Park for Southampton. They’ve currently got three players out; Tyler Dibling, Flynn Downes and Taylor Harwood-Bellis due to suspension.
