Chris Richards - calf

Crystal Palace defender Chris Richards (25) is set to miss the upcoming Premier League match against Southampton on Wednesday night due to a calf injury. Manager Oliver Glasner confirmed Richards' absence, stating: "We will miss Chris Richards tomorrow. He is struggling a bit with his calf. It doesn't look very serious, so we expect him to be available against Brighton at the weekend. But tomorrow is too early." ​ (Source: Crystal Palace)

Richards played the full 90 minutes in Crystal Palace's recent victory over Fulham. While the exact cause of the calf strain hasn't been specified, it's common for such injuries to result from muscle fatigue or minor overstretching during matches. Fortunately, Glasner's comments suggest that the injury is not severe, and Richards is anticipated to return for the fixture against Brighton.​ (Source: Crystal Palace)
