Leyton Orient - Notts County preview - Eardley blow for Orient

Posted Tuesday, February 10, 2015 by PA

Leyton Orient will be without Neal Eardley when they host Notts County.

The defender has been recalled early from his loan spell, which was due to run until February 22, by parent club Birmingham.

Goalkeeper Alex Cisak is set to make his debut after joining on loan from Burnley as cover for regular number one Adam Legzdins, who is recovering from a dislocated shoulder.

Defender Scott Cuthbert (ankle) and striker Kevin Lisbie (shoulder) will be assessed while Jay Simpson, Marvin Bartley, Jobi McAnuff and Lloyd James are still in the treatment room.

Notts have a few knocks and niggles from the weekend but no new absentees are expected.

Magpies manager Shaun Derry will pick from a virtually full squad of players as he looks to arrest a three-match losing run.

Garry Thompson and Gary Jones are good options in midfield while Kwame Thomas and Billy Daniels could come into Derry's thinking if he feels like freshening up his forwards.

Alefe Santos, Ronan Murray and Elliott Whitehouse will be hoping to return to the matchday squad after being overlooked for duty for the last two games.
