In his absence, 16 year-old goalkeeper Jack Porter has stood in as cover for senior No1 David Raya and made his debut in the Carabao Cup win against Bolton Wanderers.

Setford was on the bench at Dean Court for the first time since preseason.

The England youth international is now Raya's direct backup with veteran keeper Neto, on-loan from Bournemouth, currently injured.
