ADEN Flint has been handed a starting berth against Crewe by boss Paolo Di Canio, after the centre-back returned from a long-term groin injury.
He replaces Oliver Risser, who moves into central midfield in place of Jonathan Smith.
Elsewhere, Jonathan Tehoue is preferred up front to Billy Bodin, while Callum Kennedy replaces Alessandro Cibocchi at left-back.
There is no place in the starting 11 for new signing Lee Holmes, with the left-winger having to be content with a place on the bench.
