On the other hand surely they will rest the best players, while

we haven't got enough fit players to field a much weakened side. Darling in for Jose, Stacey for Fisher, Wright for Kenny at some stage, Springett for Ahmed. Kvistgaarden for Toure.

Probably not even that many changes to start with, but even if it were, it's no different to Clement's usual squad rotation within the first group of players.

Grimmy for Vlad but that's normal for a cup game and this time also to do with injury.

Suppose there could be a couple of surprises - maybe a start for Errol and / or Marcondes if fit? I get the feeling Clement has realised Marcondes always just does his own thing and has him quietly marked to leave in the summer.
