Fleck missed Saturday's defeat at Bristol City with a groin problem that he picked up against the Blues' second-city rivals Aston Villa before the international break.

The Scot replaces John Lundstram in one of five changes to the United side, with George Baldock, Conor Washington, Leon Clarke and Marvin Johnson all starting.
