Goalkeeper and Defence
GK – Filip Jorgensen – the Dane could be on the move in January but he may get a run-out in the domestic cup.
RB – Malo Gusto – Reece James’ fitness needs to be managed so the Frenchman could start at right-back once again.
CB – Tosin Adarabioyo – even though the 28-year-old hasn’t been in good form, this is the type of match he thrives in, with his ability to dominate aerial duels.
CB – Benoit Badiashile – the centre-back was decent in his last outing against Atalanta so he should get another chance to impress.
LB – Jorrel Hato – Maresca has mentioned that Marc Cucurella (and Enzo Fernandez) are suffering with fatigue, so that would suggest more game time for the young Dutchman.
