Colby Bishop faces late test for Accrington
Posted Friday, October 04, 2019 by PA
Accrington striker Colby Bishop faces a late fitness test on his ankle once again ahead of Oxford’s visit to the Wham Stadium.
Bishop was included in the starting XI against Southend last weekend despite concerns over the injury, but he scored the only goal of the game before being withdrawn on the hour.
He was replaced by Offrande Zanzala, who is in line to start up front if Bishop is unavailable after making his first appearance in more than a month following a hamstring complaint at Roots Hall.
Billy Kee remains unavailable but John Coleman has no new injury or suspension concerns.
Rob Dickie should retain his place in Oxford’s defence.
Dickie was brought off at half-time in the 3-0 win over Gillingham last weekend after complaining of back pain, although manager Karl Robinson insists his withdrawal was merely precautionary.
Midfielder George Thorne could have played his last game for the U’s due to a dislocated shoulder, having only joined the club on loan from Derby until January.
Jamie Hanson (hamstring) and Malachi Napa (broken leg) are still out.
