Postecoglou has revealed that Brennan Johnson is unavailable for the game.

The winger has suffered a hamstring injury and is set to be sidelined until after the next international break.

Meanwhile, James Maddison and Heung-min Son will both be assessed ahead of the game.

Postecoglou said: “From last week, Brennan will miss out. It’s nothing too serious but he won’t be right for this weekend.

“Madders and Sonny trained today, they got through it, and we’ll have to see how they pull up.

“It’s been a fragmented week of training.”
