Ryan Lowe has made two changes from Preston North End’s last league game, with Ali McCann getting his first league start.

Ryan Ledson also comes in for his first start, with both having started in midweek against Huddersfield Town in their 4-1 Carabao Cup win.

It is a change of shape from the last league game, though it is the same as in Yorkshire, with captain Alan Browne and McCann likely to start in the no.10 roles in behind Troy Parrott who will be leading the line.

The Irishman will go in search of his first league goal for PNE, after netting his first for the club in the cup.

PNE midfielder Ali McCann gets his first league start of the season.
