Crawley Town vs Yeovil Town preview - Ross Jenkins could make Crawley debut against Yeovil

Posted Friday, September 18, 2015 by PA

Ross Jenkins could make his Crawley debut against Yeovil after arriving at the club from Watford on Thursday.

There was further good news for boss Mark Yates, who saw his side thumped 4-0 by Mansfield last week, as defender Joe McNerney is set to return but this clash comes too soon for Gavin Tomlin as he continues his recovery from abductor surgery.

Lanre Oyebanjo also remains out with a knee problem, while Gwion Edwards starts a three-match suspension.

Striker Matt Harrold has a slight hamstring strain and a decision will be made over his availability closer to kick-off.

Physio Mike Micciche has claimed Yeovil's injury-hit squad is the worst he has seen.

The Glovers currently have 10 players out of action and 13 have been injured in total this season, with Alex Lacey and Omar Sowunmi being the latest names to be added to the list.

Lacey sustained a groin problem in the warm-up ahead of last week's draw with Plymouth, while Sowunmi (ankle) was stretchered off in the second half.

Summer signing Ben Tozer (knee) could return to training next week, Jakub Sokolik is playing with a fractured wrist and Kevin Dawson is back in training but more likely to return against Hartlepool. Striker Shaun Jeffers is suspended while loan signing Jake Howells could keep his place.
