Robin Koch and Diego Llorente both return to the XI having missed Wednesday night's 6-0 thrashing at Liverpool as Rodrigo and Mateusz Klich drop to the bench.

Koch sat out the midweek trip to Anfield due to concussion protocols having come off following a knock to the head from Scott McTominay in Sunday's 4-2 defeat at home to Manchester United.
