David Forde is given a game in goal with Raimond van der Gouw rested, while Brent Rahim, whose loan spell ends next month - at which time a decision will be made as to whether to keep him - gets another chance to impress.
Youssef Sofiane, who has had one or two niggling injuries since joining in the summer, is also keen to push forward his claim for a first team squad place.
Richard Garcia is the only player in action who was involved with the first team against Manchester United on Sunday.
Team: Forde, Byrne, Lumsden, Hutchison, Ferdinand, Laws, Britton, Rahim, Sofiane, Garcia, McMahon. Subs: Jackson, Mehmet, M.Cole, G.Carrick, Khan, Blewitt.
