BLUES boss Phil Brown has made two changes to his starting line-up for tonight’s game against Scunthorpe United at Roots Hall.
Skipper John White has been ruled out with a thigh strain and he has been replaced in the side by Adam Thompson who missed last Saturday’s defeat to Morecambe due to being on international action with Northern Ireland’s under 21 team.
The other alteration comes on the left hand side of midfield where Will Atkinson has been preferred to Anthony Straker.
The rest of the team remains unchanged with Freddy Eastwood captaining the team in attack alongside Cauley Woodrow with Barry Corr again on the bench.
Southend United: Bentley, Thompson, Phillips, Prosser, Coker, Hurst, Leonard, Timlin, Atkinson, Eastwood, Woodrow
Substitutes: Smith, Reid, Corr, Straker, Clifford, Payne & Auger
