TEAM NEWS
Guilliame Beuzelin is a doubt. The Frenchman picked up a knock during Saturday's draw with Preston North End and had to limp off four minutes from time after being kicked on his calf.

Aron Gunnarsson may replace him if the Frenchman is not passed fit to play. Most of those involved in the Preston game should feature.

ON THE GAME
Chris Coleman said: "It's nice playing at home on a warm summer's day but a rough night at Bramall Lane is a tough place to go. I have been there as a player and I don't want to see any shrinking violets but if we can get anything on Tuesday night it will set things up nicely for Saturday's game against QPR."
