So, since last week Woods has departed and Rafferty has signed, so that could be a 1 for 1 swap. But then if Clarke is fit would he come back in? Before last week Barkhuizen was playing every week so may come back in. Earl is also available again but suspect he won’t make the squad, and Moult could be in contention. So we could end up with quite a few not in the 18.

I think it will be:

Rudd
Fisher Storey Davies Hughes
Gallagher Pearson
Potts Browne Barkhuizen
Stockley

Ripley
Rafferty
Huntington
Johnson
Maguire
Nmecha
Ledson

Not involved: Moult, Earl, Barker, Clarke, Burke, Ginnelly, Crowe

Swap Maguire for Barkhuisen, and it's there.
 
Barky should be getting another (well earned) rest and be on the bench.
May not even make the starting 11 again if everyone is fit.......

I think you are spot on. Rafferty for Woods on the bench to be the only change

Having read it again I didn’t notice that you had replaced Maguire with Barkhuisen. I don't agree with that.

Probably have Maguire for Barky but apart from that I agree.
Out of the 6 midfield/forward players only Gallagher started in the three games between Christmas and New Year.
It's nice to be able to give the manager a lot of options again. if we are winning bring Barky on in the 70th minute for some pace.
 
Same team as last week - and same result please 🙂. Only change would be Moult for Nmecha on bench, especially against his old club.
