James Bree returns to the fold after picking up an injury against Chelsea in the FA Cup.

After playing an hour midweek, Martin Cranie starts ahead of Tom Lockyer – who is ruled out through an ankle injury.

And after both starting on the bench versus Cardiff City, Harry Cornick and Jordan Clark will occupy the wide positions today.
