James Olayinka eyeing Northampton return against Mansfield
Posted Friday, March 06, 2020 by PA
Northampton expect to have on-loan Arsenal forward James Olayinka back in contention for the Sky Bet League Two match against Mansfield.
Olayinka, 19, has stepped up his recovery from an ankle problem, so should be available for selection again after undergoing rehabilitation with his parent club.
Striker Harry Smith is fit again from an ankle problem and was an unused substitute for last weekend’s 3-0 win at Grimsby.
Cobblers boss Keith Curle, though, confirmed Shaun McWilliams is unlikely to feature again this season following a serious knee injury suffered on Boxing Day.
Mansfield could be boosted by the return of Alex MacDonald and Matt Preston after recent hamstring injuries.
Midfielder MacDonald has not featured since the start of February when he was forced off early on during the 2-2 home draw with Carlisle.
Defender Preston’s last appearance also came in the same fixture, having been sent on as a late substitute.
Stags boss Graham Coughlan, though, remains without Kellan Gordon because of a back problem.
