- While captain Ashley Williams is suspended after picking up his fifth booking of the season against Norwich, Kyle Bartley and Kemy Agustien are back fit and available.
- Leon Britton and Pablo Hernandez, having missed the game at the weekend through injury, remain doubtful.
- Danny Graham could come up against the club where he began his professional career if he can stave off competition from the likes of Shechter and Moore.
- Rhys Williams is nearing a return to fitness but remains sidelined alongside fellow long-term absentees Julio Arca, Muzzy Carayol and Curtis Main.
- Mainstay Josh McEachran is ineligible to play due to an agreement in his loan contract from Chelsea so Smallwood and Bailey will be in competition to replace him.
- Elsewhere Jonathan Woodgate may not be risked due to fitness concerns having played at the weekend, while match-winner against Peterborough Ishmael Miller will hope to start ahead of Marvin Emnes.
