Summer signing Josh Yowerth, Dylan Connolly and Adam McDonnell also feature from the off, while Josh Emmanuel and Myles Kenlock start after cameo appearances against Colchester United last night.

A number of Premier League and Championship clubs are reported to have shown interested in the striker, who recently spent time on trial in Scotland with Kilmarnock.
