Fit-again winger Michael Kightly has replaced Stephen McLaughlin on the left flank while Anton Ferdinand has also returned to the team after completing a two match suspension.

Ferdinand lines up alongside John White at centre-back with Ryan Leonard moving back into midfield at the expense of Dru Yearwood who drops down onto the bench.

Southend United: Oxley, Demetriou, White, Ferdinand, Timlin, Wright, Leonard, Wordsworth, Kightly, Cox, Fortune Subs: Bishop, McLaughlin, Ba, Yearwood, Robinson, Bwomono & Ranger
