Accrington Stanley vs Newport County - Accrington defender Dean Winnard available again after ban
Posted Friday, November 13, 2015 by PA
Accrington will have defender Dean Winnard back from suspension for the League Two game at home to Newport.
Winnard missed his side's 3-2 FA Cup first-round win over York last week after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season in the previous game against Leyton Orient.
Striker Shay McCartan and midfielder Anthony Barry will both be looking to start but boss John Coleman is set to keep changes to a minimum.
A third straight League Two win for Stanley could move them as high as second in the table and maintain their best start to a season since their return to the Football League.
Defender Andrew Hughes will be on the bench for Newport following an 11-month absence owing to an anterior cruciate ligaments injury.
Manager John Sheridan is, however, without Tommy O'Sullivan, who is on with Wales' Under-21 squad for Euro 2017 qualifiers against Armenia and Romania.
Lenell John-Lewis is expected to be fit, despite not training because of a minor thigh injury suffered in Sunday's 2-2 FA Cup draw at Brackley.
"(Hughes has) been patient and worked really hard and he looks really fit at the moment," Sheridan said. "People in the team will know he's going to be pushing for a starting place."
