Dominic Calvert-Lewin is only fit enough for the bench for today's Premier League trip to Nottingham Forest.
The Leeds United striker was a doubt ahead of the game with an adductor injury and has only been declared fit enough for the bench. Lukas Nmecha makes his first start since August as a result.
On the right wing, Daniel James continues to wait for his first start since August with Brenden Aaronson given the nod once again. Noah Okafor keeps his place on the left, while Wilfried Gnonto is out of the squad entirely once more.
The midfield sees the continuation of Ethan Ampadu and Sean Longstaff with Anton Stach coming in for Ao Tanaka to complete the trio. Stach had been benched for the last two games but the German comes in to add bulk to the centre of the park.
The back five also stays as it is, with Jayden Bogle and Gabriel Gudmundsson retaining their places at right-back and left-back respectively.
Joe Rodon and Jaka Bijol partner each other in the centre of defence as Lucas Perri looks to keep his first clean sheet since the goalless draw with Newcastle United.
