Goalkeeper and Defence

GK – Robert Sanchez – Filip Jorgensen didn’t impress against Servette so the Spaniard is unlikely to be displaced as No.1 anytime soon.

RB – Malo Gusto – rested for the trip to Switzerland but the fullback should return to the starting eleven this weekend.

CB – Wesley Fofana – Tosin Adarabioyo and Benoit Badiashile were pretty poor in Switzerland so the 23-year-old’s position in the team looks secure.

CB – Levi Colwill – Maresca is a big fan of the defender, and it looks like he could be set for a long run of games in the centre of defence; injury permitting.

LB – Marc Cucurella – Raphael Veiga performed well versus Servette so the Spaniard can’t rest on his laurels if he is to keep his starting spot.
