Nobel Mendy is back from a concussion for Hull City this weekend, while Brooke Norton-Cuffy (hamstring) should similarly make a swift comeback after missing Gameweek 5.
Hidemasa Morita (adductor) and Charlie Hughes (groin) were aiming for a return to training over the international break, although the latter may be behind his teammate given his length of absence. Matt Targett (ankle) could also return.
Elliot Stroud exited the Sweden camp at the end of September with illness, so we await a possible update on him and the others from Sergej Jakirović in Friday’s press conference.
Jack Butland (shoulder) remains on the medium-to-long-term injury list, meanwhile. So too do Darko Gyabi (thigh) and Elliot Matazo (knee) but those two, along with Óscar Zambrano, aren’t in the 25-man Premier League squad anyway.
Ilyas Ansah (back) and Tim Iroegbunam (groin) are also expected to miss out in Gameweek 6.
