Morecambe vs Cambridge United - McGowan missing for Morecambe

Morecambe will be without defender Aaron McGowan for Tuesday's Sky Bet League Two home clash with Cambridge.

McGowan came off in the first half of Saturday's 0-0 draw at Barnet due to a hamstring problem and is expected to be unavailable for a couple of weeks.

Captain Peter Murphy is back in training following three months out with a knee injury followed by a blocked artery but is not yet ready to make his first-team return.

Another defender, Adam Dugdale, is also still out because of a foot complaint.

Cambridge manager Shaun Derry faces a selection poser after his team lost their third game in a row at the weekend.

Derry chose to drop captain Mark Roberts, Rory Gaffney and Conor Newton for Saturday's defeat to Accrington and replace them with new loan signings Terry Kennedy, Ryan Ledson and Ben Williamson.

Youth-teamer Leon Davies, 16, is hoping to make the squad but Elliot Omozusi remains doubtful with an ankle injury.

Midfielder Keith Keane is a long-term absentee after suffering a serious groin injury earlier in the year.
