Brown has named an unchanged side for three consecutive games but with broken leg victim Craig Fagan the only player not to have trained this week, competition for places is high.

Record signing Anthony Gardner (thigh) is back in the squad and will travel but Brown is determined not to rush him. New signing Stelios Giannakopoulos and Nick Barmby are both in full training but will be left until after a behind-closed-doors friendly on Monday.

Team (from): Myhill, McShane, Zayatte, Turner, Dawson, Marney, Ashbee, Boateng, Hughes, Geovanni, Halmosi, Cousin, Garcia, King, Mendy, Folan, Ricketts, Gardner, Windass, Duke.
