Leyton Orient vs Barnet - Injured Robbie Weir misses out for Leyton Orient
Posted Friday, January 06, 2017 by PA
Leyton Orient will be without captain Robbie Weir for the visit of Sky Bet League Two rivals Barnet to Brisbane Road.
Weir left the pitch on a stretcher late on in the O's 4-0 defeat at Exeter last time out and faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines with a knee problem.
Teddy Mezague (groin), Sandro Semedo (knee) and Sam Dalby (ankle) all missed the thrashing on Monday and will be struggling to be in contention this time out.
Josh Doherty and Zan Benedicic were both released earlier in the week, while Liam Kelly (hamstring) remains sidelined and striker Jay Simpson is likely to sit out again after asking to leave Orient.
Barnet could hand full debuts to two of their recent signings as Dan Sweeney and David Tutonda look to come into the side.
Fellow recent acquisitions Simeon Akinola and Ricardo Almeida Santos were drafted straight into interim boss Rossi Eames' side for the 1-0 win over Plymouth and are likely to retain their places.
Tom Champion could be available following a hamstring injury while Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro should overcome sickness to be involved.
James Pearson (knee) is back in training but unlikely to be in contention, while Michael Gash (knee), Shaun Batt (hamstring) and Ben Tomlinson (quadricep) are all missing.
