Great opportunity for non regulars to go for the first time since before our championship FA cup run really.
I'm really looking forward to this because we have players that need a chance/form especially regarding Afcon. Concerns over the flooding though so we need a few days with no rain.
Our defender from Norwich has to start with Wozza imo. What will be interesting is who starts in goal as it will give an indication on Nunos longer term plan.

Wonder who starts at LB, does toff come back in and then keep his place for Brentford
Does he play neco at LB who has been showing good form recently and constantly played their internationally over the summer/international periods.
Or does Tavares get one last appearance before having his loan terminated
Maybe josh Powell will get a run out there like he did pre-season

Given it's only Nuno's 4th game surely he won't want to risk tons of changes and lose again like we did to the same team last year (admittedly away).
Personally I'd prefer he just picked what he considers the best available. We don't have another game for two weeks and we've had a weeks rest. May as well play the first team and try and get some goals to boost confidence.

Well he’ll definitely have to change LB and CB, and I’m guessing it’ll be Williams and Worrall, perhaps he gives vlachodimos a chance but that’s all. You then have 4 spots on the bench, omobamidele, felipe, origi and Aguilera?

Looking at Nunos cup.games against lower league sides when he was at wolves.. he pretty much used a strong as side as possible
