Ange Postecoglou will have Rodrigo Bentancur available for selection and is hopeful Destiny Udogie will be closer to full fitness as we travel to Forest on Boxing Day (3pm UK).
Destiny departed early from our 5-0 win at Southampton last weekend, missed our Carabao Cup quarter-final win against United on Thursday evening and was back in the matchday squad and an unused substitute against Liverpool on Sunday. Meanwhile, Rodrigo has completed his suspension.
Speaking on our _Review Show_ post-match on Sunday, Ange told us: “Hopefully, Destiny will be okay. He wasn’t quite right today, we had him on the bench, hopefully he’ll be closer to it. They are the main two at the moment. We’re kind of hoping Ben Davies, Mikey Moore and Richarlison aren’t too far away after that but, for Thursday, it’s probably just Destiny and Rodrigo.”
