Shrewsbury hopeful over Shaun Whalley and Louis Thompson

Shaun Whalley and Louis Thompson could both be back in the Shrewsbury squad for their home game against Coventry.

Town boss Sam Ricketts has been without attacker Whalley (calf) for more than three weeks while midfielder Thompson has missed the last three matches with a knock.

However, the duo have resumed training this week and Ricketts hopes to have at least one of them available for selection on Saturday.

Shrewsbury are six points behind Coventry, who currently occupy the final play-off spot, but have won just one of their last four league games.

Dominic Hyam, Zain Westbrooke and Amadou Bakayoko are likely to be restored to the Sky Blues’ team.

The trio were rested for the FA Cup win at Ipswich on Tuesday, having started against the same opponents in the league three days previously.

Matt Godden is fit again after a groin problem while Jodi Jones is stepping up the final stages of his recovery from a cruciate knee ligament injury.

Coventry are unbeaten in seven league games but have beaten Shrewsbury only once in 12 meetings since 1963.
