Undergoes successful surgery
Martinez is optimistic following a medical procedure to repair his jaw injury, sending a message via his social media saying "Thanks to everyone for the messages; the surgery went well. The most important thing is that we won and kept a clean sheet. We'll be back in a few weeks."
Analysis: Martinez will continue his recovery process after being involved in a collision during Saturday's win over Everton, and early reports indicate he'll be sidelined for a few games. With the goalkeeper himself saying he'll be back in weeks, he'll likely stay sidelined in immediate EPL action. In that case, Mike Penders could be expected to fill in for him. Martinez's precise timeline will likely depend on his progress in the coming days.
Conscious after collision
Martinez has a jaw injury but is conscious and in the hospital after being involved in a collision with Jarrad Branthwaite in Saturday's win over Everton, according to Gaston Edul of ESPN.
Analysis: Martinez underwent a CT scan and tests on both his back and neck, and everything came out well, according to Edul. The jaw injury is troublesome, and it remains to be seen when he'll be able to train -- and play -- again. Mike Penders should play a bigger role between the posts if Martinez has to be sidelined, though it's uncertain whether that'll be the case since he can play with a protective mask.
