With Jaheim Headley sidelined by the hamstring injury he sustained against Coventry City at the weekend, Ben Jackson makes his first senior appearance of 2023 this evening.

Our third changes comes in goal, where Czech Republic international Tomáš Vaclík makes his first appearance in four games. Australian stopper Nicholas Bilokapic drops to the bench.

Finally, Josh Ruffels comes in for his first game in three, with Matt Lowton dropping out of the squad.
