Exeter City - Cambridge United preview - Grecians wait on duo

Exeter will check on the fitness of David Noble and Scot Bennett ahead of the visit of Cambridge.

Bennett has missed the last two games with an ankle problem and joined the hamstrung Noble in the stands but the pair will be monitored in the build-up to kick-off.

City boss Paul Tisdale was able to hand Ryan Harley a 30-minute cameo from the bench at Bury after he overcame a hamstring injury and the midfielder could return to the starting line-up against the U's.

Christian Ribeiro and David Wheeler will also be pushing to start while Jamie McAllister is in line to make his home debut for the Grecians.

Cambridge will be without Cameron McGeehan after he returned to his parent club Norwich following his loan spell.

McGeehan would not have been available anyway in Devon as he was sent off on Saturday and must now serve a three-match suspension.

Fellow midfielders Liam Hughes and Harrison Dunk are expected to remain out for a few more weeks with their ankle injuries.

Striker Jordan Slew will be pushing for his full debut after making his first appearance for the U's as a second-half substitute during the home loss to Wycombe at the weekend.
