Yeovil vs Notts County - Yeovil could be without captain Darren Ward for Notts County clash

Yeovil captain Darren Ward is a doubt for their opening Sky Bet League Two clash against Notts County on Saturday.

The 37-year-old is still recovering from a knee injury but manager Darren Way can rely on the centre-back partnership of Alex Lacey and Nathan Smith to deputise.

Alex Lawless should make his debut after securing a deal at Huish Park, following his release from Luton Town.

Swansea loan duo Liam Shephard and Ryan Hedges should feature but frontman Francois Zoko could miss out as he struggles for fitness.

John Sheridan's first match as Notts County boss could see several players making their bows for the club.

Striker Vadaine Oliver became the Magpies' eighth signing of the summer when he joined on loan from York earlier this week.

Rob Milsom will not be available but should be able to play in a couple of weeks.

Fellow midfielder Curtis Thompson remains sidelined by his long-term ankle injury.
