Reading FC boss Jaap Stam has named both Yann Kermorgant and Jon Dadi Bodvarsson in his starting 11 for Tuesday night's game at Burton Albion.

The strikers both started last Friday's FA Cup clash at Sheffield Wednesday - the first time they began a match together.

Stam makes four changes in total from that game, with Vito Mannone, Sone Aluko, Joey van den Berg and Mo Barrow all coming in.

New signing Tommy Elphick is named on the bench at the Pirelli Stadium, where kick-off is 7.45pm.
