What happened
Ismaïla Sarr - Ankle Sprain. Jeppe published his analysis on 30 Nov 2025, in the 2025/26 FPL season.
Injury explained (physio view)
Sarr rolled his ankle (inversion) minutes into the game. They often look worse than they are, and this one did too.
Inversion + full weight.
He tried to continue, but swelling and pain likely worsened, leading to substitution.
There's a chance he's okay and it was mainly precautionary, but I doubt it.
With midweek games, Palace plays Burnley (A), an easy game on paper, good chance to rest him.
I expect Sarr OUT for GW14 unless Glasner indicates otherwise.

: Ismaïla Sarr Injury Report: Hamstring Tear Rumours
What happened:
During Crystal Palace's Premier League win over Aston Villa, Sarr scored a goal but was substituted in the second half after clutching his hamstring.
He was booked for simulation, but manager Oliver Glasner confirmed post-match it was a hamstring issue.
Recent rumors suggest Sarr suffered a grade 2 hamstring tear.
This is unconfirmed by Palace.
If true, it would sideline him for at least four weeks.
