Ameobi has been struggling for some time with a hip injury, but new signing Antoine Sibierski could yet figure with loan signing Giuseppe Rossi ineligible.

Olivier Bernard could be on the bench, but Nolberto Solano and Steven Taylor did not travel because of hamstring and foot injuries respectively, while Celestine Babayaro continues his recovery from a hamstring strain.

Squad: Given, Harper, Krul, Carr, Bernard, Bramble, Moore, Ramage, Huntington, Parker, Butt, Duff, Emre, N'Zogbia, Milner, Pattison, Ameobi, Martins, Sibierski, Luque.
