Michael Ihiekwe and Joe Mattock unavailable for Rotherham’s clash with Southend
Posted Thursday, March 12, 2020 by PA
Rotherham will be without defenders Michael Ihiekwe and Joe Mattock again for the visit of Southend.
Ihiekwe sustained a knee injury, which may require surgery, during training last week and Mattock (hamstring) also missed the defeat at Rochdale.
Curtis Tilt made his debut against Rochdale and could continue in central defence, while fellow defender Billy Jones returned following a hamstring injury which had sidelined him since November.
On-loan Newcastle midfielder Dan Barlaser is hoping to be back in contention after an ankle problem but defender Clark Robertson (foot) is still out.
Southend boss Sol Campbell has no new injury concerns and is expected to choose from an unchanged squad.
Sam Mantom (thigh), Timothee Dieng (hamstring) and Mark Milligan (fractured cheekbone) are all still out.
Campbell is also without John White (broken arm) and Stephen Humphrys (broken nose), who are both working their way back from surgery.
Defender Joe Shaughnessy (ankle) is fit again, returning in last week’s 3-1 home win against Bristol Rovers, which halted a six-game losing run.
