Rolando Bianchi will make his first start for the club in tonights' friendly against Örgyte IS, partnering Emile Mpenza in attack, whilst Gelson Fernandes will also be making his debut.
Youngster Shaleum Logan gets a nod in midfield in a side which looks to be the most likely 'full-strength' line-up (Geovanni not including) depending on whether any more re-inforcements arrive at the club between now and opening day kick-off.

Subs: Hart, Schmeichel, D Mills, M Mills, Dabo, Miller, Hamann, Laird, Dickov, Samaras, Corradi, Vassell.
