Brown was away with Wales for the midweek cup defeat to Leicester but looks favourite to come straight back into the side for the clash at Plymouth.
“It’s a tricky one but maybe I’ve made my mind up already,” said Scott to the Star. “You have to let people down, to manage players; difficult decisions are part of the job."
Michael Raynes made his debut in the 4-1 cup exit but Brown was impressive in the 1-0 win over Oxford last weekend.
Conrad Logan comes back into the side in goal whilst Marcus Marshall and Lewis Grabban are fully fit after taking minor knocks and being withdrawn at half time on Tuesday night.
