Maybe he might as a surprise tactic like he did when Sturridge started against Southampton but I hope he doesn't.
After what happened against Chelsea, I'd hope that Pardew has learned from his mistake of trying to rush Sturridge into the team. Of course he might not have and Sturridge might start but common sense would dictate Sturridge starting on the bench at best tomorrow. Rushing him back, just like with Chadli, will do more harm than good.
