Speaking at Monday’s press conference, Liam Rosenior said that Cole Palmer is available to start again, having suffered only a knock – and not a recurrence of his groin injury – against Arsenal.

“It wasn’t [his groin issue]. He took a knock, he was absolutely fine.

“He’s looking really good. I think you can see in the way we’ve managed him over the last six weeks. He played 83 minutes [vs Arsenal]. That was tactical, why I took him and Enzo off, they were both on yellow cards and I wanted Garna and Liam [Delap] to come on and give us a freshness, which I felt they did. He’s absolutely fine to start the game on Wednesday.

“So yes, Cole’s absolutely fine to start the game on Wednesday and Reece [James] is also fine.” – Liam Rosenior

Jamie Gittens (hamstring) and Levi Colwill (knee) remain out, too, while this game may come too soon for Marc Cucurella (hamstring) and Estevao (hamstring).

“No, getting closer.

“Cucu is looking really good. Hopefully, we can get him back involved, if not for Wednesday, for Saturday, for sure, which is great with the schedule we’ve got coming up.

“Estevao [Willian] is back on the pitch running, which is great. Jamie Gittens is doing really well.” – Liam Rosenior on if he will get anyone back from injury

Pedro Neto serves a one-match ban following his dismissal on Sunday but Wesley Fofana returns from his own ban.

Meanwhile, Dario Essugo is also back in training after a month or so out with an unknown issue.

Having featured off the bench on Sunday, the newly fit-again Romeo Lavia is inching closer to a start.

“It was brilliant to have Romeo [Lavia] get his first minutes in a long time [on Sunday]. I felt he looked really strong [against Arsenal].

“[He’s] close [to starting]. We have managed him in a different way in terms of his rehab, and hopefully, once he is back fit, which he is now, he stays fit.” – Liam Rosenior on Romeo Lavia
