Fit for bench
Willock (thigh) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against Barcelona.
Analysis: Willock was likely to be an option Wednesday, and that has come to fruition, with the midfielder fit from the bench. He will likely remain a rotational option from the bench as the club continues to regain fit midfielders, still missing Bruno Guimaraes (hamstring) for the time being.
Traveling, should be option
Willock (thigh) has traveled with the team and is likely for Wednesday's match against Barcelona, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Joe Willock has travelled with us, and we'll have a look at him in training today, fingers crossed he'll be fine."
Analysis: Willock is looking to be an option moving forward after a thigh injury last outing, with the midfielder already traveling for UCL play. This is solid news as they continue without Bruno Guimaraes (hamstring) and Lewis Miley (leg), gaining back another midfield option. That said, he could be a starter to begin the game, with Jacob Ramsey his likely replacement.
