The end of the 2022/23 Premier League season is fast approaching with Tottenham now only having 11 league games left to play. In a good position to achieve another Champions League finish, Spurs' recent cup exits could play into their hands, as was the case 12 months ago as they beat Arsenal to fourth place.
As we are now at the business end of the campaign, with title hopes, European aspirations and relegation on the line, there is a key date in the calendar coming up that all clubs will be looking to pass without any hitches. It is in regards to players picking up a suspension at such an important time in the term.
Having already passed the cut-off point for players earning a one-match ban if they obtain five yellow cards from their team's first 19 games of the Premier League season, the next hurdle they need to navigate is coming up. Premier League rules stipulate that players who accumulate ten yellow cards in Premier League matches up to and including their team's 32nd fixture will serve a two-match ban in the competition.
