This weekend comes too soon for Riccardo Calafiori.
On the other side of North London, Tottenham are once again without first-choice centre-backs Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven.
Plus, Yves Bissouma is suspended for the Lilywhites’ trip to Southampton.

Alisson returned against Girona in the Champions League, leaving only Ibrahima Konate, Kostas Tsimikas and Conor Bradley on the injured list for certain.
Chelsea have no fresh concerns as Wesley Fofana and Reece James remain injured while Mykhailo Mudryk may still be ill – Pedro Neto is suspended.
Rico Lewis is suspended for Sunday’s Manchester derby having been shown two yellow cards last weekend.
Manchester City will also be without defenders John Stones, Manuel Akanji and Nathan Ake, as well as long-term absentees Rodri and Oscar Bobb.
Phil Foden and Mateo Kovacic are expected to make the matchday squad having been named on the bench against Juventus in midweek.
