MICHAEL Carrick has named an unchanged team for today's game against Swansea - but there are two major fitness boosts on the bench with Hayden Hackney and Rav van den Berg both returning to the squad.
Jonny Howson continues at centre-half alongside Matt Clarke, with Luke Ayling and Luke Thomas at full-back. Dan Barlaser and Lewis O'Brien are again in midfield, with Isaiah Jones, Finn Azaz and Sam Greenwood playing off Emmanuel Latte Lath.
Van den Berg and Hackney replace Pharrell Willis and Charlie Lennon on the bench. Sonny Finch also returns to the squad, replacing Luke Woolston on the bench,
Hackney hasn't played since mid-February, while van den Berg hasn't featured since the win over Birmingham.
