SOUTHEND United manager Phil Brown has made one enforced change to his starting line-up for this afternoon’s game against Wigan Athletic with Glen Rea returning to the team.

Rea has replaced the injured David Worrall in the midfield meaning Will Atkinson moves from a central position onto the wing.

However, the rest of the team remains unchanged with Jack Payne lining up behind David Mooney in attack but there is again no place in the squad for the injured Michael Timlin.

Southend United: Bentley, White, Thompson, Barrett, Coker, Atkinson, Rea, Leonard, Hurst, Payne, Mooney

Substitutes: T Smith, Prosser, Bolger, Pigott, O’Neill, Williams & Bridge
