Taylor To Ring In The Changes Again

Leon Cort is an injury doubt after suffering a problem with his foot against Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday. He may have recovered by tomorrow though to face his brother Carl, who will be playing up front for the home side. If he doesn't, a reshuffle will be required, with Scott Wiseman or Marc Joseph coming in at right back, with Danny Coles reverting to his preferred central defensive position. Left-back Andy Dawson is another possible returnee.

Nick Barmby also got injured at Hillsborough, being substituted in the second half. Taylor may be looking to rest him anyway after starting him in both matches so far this season. Ben Burgess could come into the side.

In midfield, Keith Andrews will be hoping to keep his place. The Irishman joined City from Wolves this summer. However, he has competition from Curtis Woodhouse, who is yet to make his Tigers debut, and Stuart Green.

A change is expected on right wing after Jason Price's less than impressive performance on Tuesday. Ryan France could be recalled. Taylor could also shock on the other flank by dropping Stuart Elliott, with left winger Kevin Ellison among those still waiting for a chance.

However, Taylor is giving away no clues as to what changes he'll go with.

Expected line-up (4-4-2): Myhill; Joseph, Coles, Delaney, Edge; France, Ashbee, Andrews, Elliott; McPhee, Barmby.
Subs: Leite, Wiseman, Woodhouse, Fagan, Burgess.
