CJ's thoughts: Big call from Hellberg and a huge show of faith from him in Alex Gilbert, who returns to the side after being rested against QPR. He...
One change to the starting line-up - Gilbert for Browne:
Comprehensive report on the match by the Beeb, which has HH as MotM in front of 24,055 spectators:
