Latics boss John Sheridan has made two changes to the starting side that through to the Second Round of the FA Cup Sponsored by E.ON at Doncaster last Tuesday.

Lee Hughes has recovered from a groin injury in time to take his place up front, while Chris Taylor is again preferred at left-back.

Reuben Hazell starts alongside Stefan Stam at the centre of defence with Neal Trotman serving a one-match ban.

John Thompson also returns after more than a month out, and is named amongst the substitutes.
