What is the team news?

Manchester City starlet Liam Delap will sit this one out as he is cup-tied having already featured for Stoke.

And the forward is set to be joined by Troy Parrott who cannot face his parent club.

Emil Riis Jakobsen and Sean Maguire are also likely to miss out due to injuries, but Preston boss Ryan Lowe will be delighted to welcome Ben Whiteman and Brad Potts back into the fold.

Elsewhere, Lucas Moura continues his recovery period for Tottenham while Bryan Gil is a doubt.

But Antonio Conte will be tempted to throw his latest recruit Arnaut Danjuma in from the start.
