Daryl Murphy returns to the Town starting line-up in place of Frank Nouble and skipper Carlos Edwards comes into the side for the injured Paul Anderson as the Blues take on Yeovil in the Football League for the first time ever at Portman Road this evening.

Anderson has a slight groin injury and is missing from the 18, while Nouble is on the bench with Frederic Veseli the additional man in the squad.

Yeovil include former Blues academy midfielder and scorer of the winning goal in the 2005 FA Youth Cup final Ed Upson, one-time Town target Joel Grant and summer Blues trialist Dan Seaborne from the start.

Town: Gerken, Chambers, Berra, Smith, Cresswell, Edwards, Skuse, Hyam, Tunnicliffe, Murphy, McGoldrick. Subs: Loach, Hewitt, Veseli, Wordsworth, Tabb, Taylor, Nouble.

Yeovil: Hennessey, Ayling, McAllister, Fontaine, Seaborne, Edwards, Upson, Ralls, Grant, Hayter, Williams. Subs: Dunn, Dawson, Foley, Moore, Hoskins, Davis, Ofori-Twumasi.

HarryfromBath added 19:23 - Sep 17 Interesting that Joel Grant is starting for Yeovil. They will be more of a threat down that flank, whereas we should have opportunities on our left against Ayling (their right back) and Ralls (their right midfielder).
