Team News vs Qarabag FK
None. The injury, fitness, suspension situation remains the same, more or less. Richarlison and Wilson Odobert remain out.

Starting XI Prediction vs Qarabag FK
Fraser Forster; Archie Gray, Radu Dragusin, Ben Davies, Djed Spence; Pape Matar Sarr, Rodrigo Bentancur, Lucas Bergvall; Brennan Johnson, Dominic Solanke, Timo Werner
