Barnet vs Luton - Barnet to assess Elliot Johnson ahead of Luton clash

Posted Sunday, March 27, 2016 by PA

Barnet will assess defender Elliot Johnson ahead of Monday's Sky Bet League Two clash with Luton.

The left-back was forced off during the first half of the Bees' 1-1 draw at Exeter on Good Friday with an ongoing shoulder problem.

Teenagers Harry Taylor and Justin Nwogu both made their full debuts against Exeter and could continue in the side.

Forward Michael Gash returned from his long-term hamstring injury with a substitute appearance and may come into contention along with on-loan Northampton winger Chris Hackett, who had been out with a knee problem.

Luton will check on the fitness of both defender Dan Potts and forward Craig Mackail-Smith.

The pair were substituted during the 1-0 win at Plymouth last weekend and manager Nathan Jones will monitor their progress ahead of the trip to north London.

Midfielder Paddy McCourt has recovered from a minor knock and resumed training with the rest of the squad, while Oliver Lee is also expected to be in contention having sat out the game against the Pilgrims.

Defender Glen Rea, on loan from Brighton, is away on international duty with the Republic of Ireland Under-21s.
