AFC Manager Mark Morsley will be able to give young goalkeeper Luca Collins (pictured) his debut, the AFC Academy player currently training with Colchester United’s youth teams, will play as usual number Paul Walker is still injured. Milo Grimes who stood in so well on Saturday is rewarded with a place in central defence for the game.

Up front striker Phil Kelly has recovered from injury and will start and there is a strong look to the substitute bench with a number of attack minded players selected.
