Tony Popovic

Tony Popovic

Tony Popovic returns to the squad for Saturday's road trip to Luton Town.

The Aussie defender has had a calf injury for most of the season. But he recovered in time to help his country to next year's World Cup finals earlier this month and is set for a place on the bench tomorrow.

Jon Macken is over his hamstring troubles and is likely to join Popovic on the bench too.

Winger Marco Reich (groin) is a doubt, so Wayne Andrews should keep his place on the right flank after scoring against Coventry in midweek.

Mikele Leigertwood and Aki Riihilahti played 60 minutes for the reserves on Wednesday on their comebacks from injury and could feature.

Luton forward Steve Howard hopes to shake off a bout of the flu to play.

Kevin Nicholls and Russell Perrett are banned after red cards at Norwich last week. Sol Davis (knee) and Chris Coyne (hamstring) are sidelined.
