Lukasz Fabianski returns in goal at the expense of Wojciech Szczesny, while Carl Jenkinson, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Yaya Sanogo are also in the starting XI for the Wembley clash against the current cup holders.

Wigan's Ben Watson, who scored the winner in last season's final against Manchester City, is out with a broken leg.
