Oldham boss Richie Wellens ready to shuffle pack for Southend clash

Boss Richie Wellens is expected to make some personnel changes in a bid to end relegation-threatened Oldham’s run of five straight League One draws when Southend visit on Tuesday.

Striker Craig Davies returned and played for an hour in the weekend draw at AFC Wimbledon, having missing two matches with an ankle injury.

Defender Jamie Scott has been recalled from his loan spell with National League North side Stockport and will be in the Latics squad.

Five matches without a win mean Wellens’ team are still just a point above the relegation zone.

Southend have not won away in six games but travel on a high after Theo Robinson’s hat-trick in a 4-0 win over MK Dons.

Elvis Bwomono and Anton Ferdinand started in defence in place of injured pair Ben Coker and Michael Turner.

Coker (hamstring) and Turner (thigh) will almost certainly miss the rest of the season.

Goalkeeper Ted Smith (shoulder) and defender Rob Kiernan (knee) are still out as the Shrimpers appear likely to select the same line-up.
