SOUTHEND United manager Phil Brown has selected an unchanged starting line-up for tonight’s clash at Bradford City with Nile Ranger continuing in attack.

Ranger impressed against Chesterfield at the weekend and will again be lining up at Valley Parade as he starts back to back matches for the first time since November 2014.

Centre-back Anton Ferdinand continues as the Shrimpers skipper while Ben Coker makes his 150th appearance for the club at left-back.

But there is no place in the squad for Adam Barrett.

Southend United: Oxley, Demetriou, Ferdinand, Thompson, Coker, Atkinson, Leonard, Wordsworth, McLaughlin, Cox, Ranger

Substitutes: Smith, White, Mooney, Fortune, King, McGlashan & Inniss
