Shrewsbury boss Sam Ricketts is likely to name a strong side for the FA Cup third-round replay at home to Bristol City – with a visit from runaway Premier League leaders Liverpool the reward for the winners.

Ricketts made only two alterations for the initial tie as veteran goalkeeper Joe Murphy and midfielder Sean Goss came in for the 1-1 draw at Ashton Gate.

The Shrews are without a win in all competitions since December 21 and Ricketts made four changes for the weekend’s Sky Bet League One draw at home to Lincoln.

Defender Ryan Sears started that game – his first appearance since overcoming a serious knee injury suffered in April.

City boss Lee Johnson shuffled his pack for the original game and may be tempted to do so again, even with the carrot of a game against Liverpool.

Johnson saw three of his players suffer knocks in Saturday’s 2-0 Championship win at Wigan.

He will be hoping that Han-Noah Massengo (ankle), Korey Smith (dead leg) and Marley Watkins (calf) will all be in contention having been forced off during the game.

Injured defender Tomas Kalas will definitely miss out.
