Yeovil Town vs Mansfield Town - Yeovil boss Paul Sturrock facing selection headache



Posted Tuesday, October 20, 2015 by PA

Yeovil boss Paul Sturrock faces a selection headache up front as his side look to end a run of five League Two games without a win at home to Mansfield.

Sturrock could drop top scorer Ryan Bird to the bench after replacing him with Shaun Jeffers for the final part of his side's 2-0 defeat against Notts County on Saturday.

Sturrock favours a combination of Jeffers alongside Harry Cornick and could make the call with his striking options limited following on-loan Jake Howells' return to Luton.

Yeovil are still struggling on the injury front with Kevin Dawson, Simon Gillett, Ben Tozer, Jack Compton, Omar Sowunmi and Jamie Burrows missing out again.

Mansfield boss Adam Murray will have to change his side at Huish Park.

Captain Nicky Hunt and centre-half Krystian Pearce are suspended following their red cards in Saturday's defeat to Bristol Rovers.

Murray has doubts over goalkeeper Brian Jensen and Mal Benning after they collided on Saturday and they will be assessed in the build-up to kick-off.

That is also the case for Craig Westcarr and Jamie McGuire as they picked up knocks at the weekend.
