Burton Albion FC vs Bristol City

Nigel Clough is expected to make several changes for Burton's first ever Championship fixture at the Pirelli Stadium, against Bristol City.

The Brewers boss swapped eight players for the EFL Cup win over Bury and the likes of Lucas Akins, Chris O'Grady, Lloyd Dyer, Ben Turner and John Mousinho are among those players likely to be restored to the starting line-up.

Club record signing Jackson Irvine is also in contention to make his league debut for Clough's team after missing the Nottingham Forest game through suspension.

Lee Williamson has been nursing a niggle following the 4-3 defeat at the City Ground but it is hoped the midfielder will be fit.

Chelsea loanee Tammy Abraham could make his first league start after scoring in his opening two games as a Bristol City player.

Abraham scored after coming on as a substitute in the opening league victory over Wigan and then grabbed an EFL Cup winner at Wycombe in midweek.

City will monitor Callum O'Dowda after the winger picked up a knock against Wigan.

Hordur Magnusson, Joe Bryan, Gary O'Neil and Jonathan Kodjia are all set to return after being rested at Wycombe.
