- Abdoullah Ba will return to the starting XI on Monday afternoon after Patrick Roberts suffered an injury during the draw against Rotherham.
- Timothee Pembele could enjoy a rare start at right-back in place of Jenson Seelt.
- Ryan Lowe could make two changes for Monday's clash with Ched Evans and Mads Frokjaer-Jensen returning to the side.
- Emil Riis made his long-awaited return on Friday night, meaning Robbie Brady is the away side's only injury concern for the trip to the Stadium of Light.
