Alphonse Areola - Starts in Cup loss Areola started in Wednesday's 5-1 EFL Cup loss against Liverpool.

Impact Areola was back in net Wednesday, though it unfortunately came in a big loss. He returned from injury the prior couple matches, but Lukasz Fabianski was preferred. It's expected Areola will start in league play going forward, but that's far from guaranteed if David Moyes prefers Fabianski instead.

Edson Alvarez - Picks up knock Alvarez picked up a knock during Thursday's 2-0 loss to Freiburg, according to manager David Moyes."We need to wait and see. Edson got a knock on his hip so we need to see how he i...

Impact Alvarez will be a doubt Sunday, though he did play throughout Thursday's clash even after the injury. With that in mind Alvarez seems likely to be straight back available for Sunday's clash. Either way Alvarez will be one to watch before Sunday's clash with Tomas Soucek another option to fill in defensive midfield.

Alphonse Areola - Returns to bench Areola was on the bench for Thursday's clash with Freiburg.

Impact Areola didn't appear off the bench but he was fit enough to be an emergency option if anything happened to Lukasz Fabianski. The goalkeeper should take his starting job back if the wrist pain he was struggling with is no longer an issue moving forward.

Edson Alvarez - Brilliant in win Alvarez returned with a goal and assist during Thursday's 2-0 win over Freiburg.

Impact Alvarez made his way back from a knock that sidelined him for one match and got on the scoresheet with a goal and assist Thursday.

Now that he is fit once more he should play a large role moving forward.

Lukasz Fabianski - Concedes five in lopsided defeat Fabianski recorded three saves and allowed five goals in Sunday's 5-0 defeat to Fulham.

It was the first time all season that the goalkeeper had allowed more than one goal in a contest. He may be headed back to the bench in their next match against SC Freiburg in the Europa League, if Alphonse Areola is deemed fit to play.
