.City boss Phil Parkinson has made four changes from his Wigan Athletic starting eleven for his side's trip to Northampton Town in the F.A Cup with Budweiser First Round
Gary Jones, Ritchie Jones, who is fit again after a stomach virus during the week, and apprentice Scott Brown have all been brought into the midfield, while Alan Connell returns up front to partner Garry Thompson.
For Brown, it will be his maiden first team start for the club.
With Rory McArdle not risked from the start due to a tight hamstring, Nathan Doyle moves back into central defence to partner Carl McHugh.
McArdle is named among City's substitutes, however, where he is joined by Nahki Wells, James Hanson and Zavon Hines.
