Carrusca, who is yet to feature in the 2016/17 campaign after suffering a long-term foot injury in pre-season, has been declared fit by the club's medical staff and included in the 18-man list for the Round 5 match.

The Reds have endured a horror run losing Michael Marrone (8 weeks), Henrique (5 weeks), Sergio Cirio (7 weeks) Nikola Mileusnic (2 weeks) and Jordan Elsey (season) to injuries.

It's been another slow start for the defending champions who sit one off the bottom of the table on a single point after four rounds.
