Brian McDermott saw his side hammered 4-1 at fellow Championship strugglers Plymouth Argyle on Monday and may choose to make changes.[LNB]Defender Matthew Mills is expected to be handed a recall as McDermott looks for a response to a damaging defeat at Home Park which left the Royals just two points clear of the relegation zone.[LNB]Midfielder Brian Howard has been an unused substitute for the last two games after a swift return from a broken jaw and may be back in the starting line-up and be given a chance to emulate his famous FA Cup goal at Anfield while a Barnsley player in 2008.[LNB]Jay Tabb is still struggling with a calf strain while striker Noel Hunt is likely to be out until the end of the season as he recovers from a knee injury.[LNB]New signing Gunnar Thorvaldsson is not available to play until next week's clash with Newcastle.[LNB][LNB]
