TEAM NEWS
United welcome Joe Rothwell back into the squad after the midfielder missed Tuesday night's draw with Charlton through suspension. Rothwell picked up his fifth yellow card of the season during the win at Bristol Rovers last Saturday but is not guranteed a starting place after Alex Mowatt scored the winner at Rovers and impressed on his first start on Tuesday.
Jon Obika made his return on Tuesday while Robbie Hall is fully fit and raring to go, along with dutch defender Dwight Tiendalli.
Gino van Kessel once again misses out with a niggling injury that affects the lower hamstring area. Wes Thomas will be keen to keep his superb scoring run going against the club where he started his trademark goal salute: find out more in the matchday programme.
