Ross Barkley is handed the captain’s armband for tonight’s EFL Cup second-round tie against Yeovil Town.
The Academy graduate leads a side which also includes full debutants Ashley Williams and Yannick Bolasie.
Romelu Lukaku, as expected, makes his first start of the season after appearing off the bench in the 2-1 victory at West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.
Altogether there are five changes to the team named at the Hawthorns, with Aaron Lennon and Bryan Oviedo also coming into the side.
Phil Jagielka is one of the players to make way, dropping down to the bench alongside Kevin Mirallas and Leighton Baines.
