Impact Heaven benefited from several absences in central defense to start against Hull City but has since fallen back down the pecking order as more established options have become available. The young center-back sits behind Lisandro Martinez, Harry Maguire, Leny Yoro and Matthijs De Ligt when the group is healthy, leaving him with a difficult path to regular playing time. Heaven offers useful depth and could receive opportunities if injuries accumulate in defense, but he is expected to see very limited minutes under normal circumstances this season.

Impact Heaven went down with a knock during the international break with the England U21s, but is making his return to the team sheet Sunday, with the defender immediately finding his way back to the bench.
