Gareth Roberts is out after picking up a knock in training - meaning on-loan Craig Forsyth will fill in at left-back - while Ben Davies and Valentin Gjokaj drop to the bench.
Ward is expected to line up on the left wing in a 4-4-2 formation, with Paul Coutts reverting back to the right-hand side following Bryson's return.
Leicester boss Nigel Pearson has made one change to his side, recalling the fit-again Paul Konchesky in place of Jeff Schlupp.
