However, Alexis Mac Allister has been benched for the visitors, as Roberto De Zerbi makes four changes from the team that started Sunday’s 3-0 win at Arsenal.

Levi Colwill, who is absent from the matchday squad, Julio Enciso and Evan Ferguson also drop out, with Jan Paul van Hecke, Facundo Buonanotte, Deniz Undav and Danny Welbeck coming in.

As for Newcastle, they are unchanged, which means Eddie Howe has decided to start both Callum Wilson and Alexander Isak in attack once again.

    Why does MacAllister not start the double? They protecting him from injury to sell? Or lack of form?

    Sickening that last 5 minutes as an Isak capper and Wilson non owner.. rough.

    Most of my rivals now only 10/15 points behind, big couple of weeks! Is this G2G for the weekend?

      Would do Isak to Wilson if you have a FT tbh
      Hard to see Wilson being dropped from that central position

    3) Mahrez or Gundogan in anove option ?

    4) Is shaw really worth bringing in , can see only 1 cs, less chance of attacking returns than current three defenders ?
