Yeovil Town vs Cheltenham Town - Yeovil boss Darren Way could name unchanged side

Posted Friday, September 23, 2016 by PA

Yeovil manager Darren Way could stick with the same starting line-up for the visit of Cheltenham.

After a run of five straight league defeats, Way made one change to his side last weekend and Yeovil claimed their first win since the opening day of the season.

Bournemouth loanee Ben Whitfield and summer signing Kyle Copp are pushing for their first league starts, while Izale McLeod is hoping for a recall after missing the Glovers' win over Leyton Orient.

Defender Bevis Mugabi may have to settle for a place on the bench again following the return of club captain Darren Ward who made his first appearance of the campaign last week.

Striker Billy Waters is in contention to start as Gary Johnson takes his Cheltenham side to familiar territory on Saturday.

The 20-year-old impressed with a hat-trick in a county-cup tie against Forest Green on Tuesday and could start.

Johnson, who led the Somerset club to a FA Trophy and two promotions, confirmed that Kyle Storer (back) Dan Holman (foot), and Amari Morgan-Smith (hamstring) are closing in on returns.

Jack Munns is pushing for a recall after failing to make the matchday squad against Notts County.
