Manager Lee Johnson has named his side that will be taking on Cambridge United at the Abbey Stadium this afternoon in the Second Round of The Emirates FA Cup.

There's lots to talk about regarding the team ahead of today's cup clash away from as we've got players coming back in after loans, plenty of Academy graduates in the squad, and a new man between the sticks on a frozen afternoon in Cambridgeshire.

Starting with the goalkeeping change as youngster Stephen McMullan, fresh off his time with the Northern Ireland national team, is named in the eleven to start the game for the Cods, in place of Jay Lynch, who occupies one of the nine spots on the bench.

Moving on to the youth influence in the squad now, alongside McMullan, we have four more Academy graduates Carl Johnston, Harrison Holgate, Connor Teale, and Pharrell Brown with us in the squad today.

Finally, we welcome Callum Dolan back to the squad after his successful loan spell at National League South side Torquay United, who dons the number 22 this afternoon on the bench.

Here's how Town are lining up this evening:

Town XI: McMullan (GK), Johnston, Wiredu, Lawal, Vela (C), Stockley, Mayor, Broom, Marriott, Heneghan, Patterson.

BenchLynch (GK), Montgomery, Tshimanga, Holgate, Dolan, Teale, Rooney, Brown, Armstrong.
