New signing James Daly is out for six to eight weeks after a scan on an injury sustained early in his Yeovil Town career, according to manager Mark Cooper.
The winger, who moved to Somerset following his release by Harrogate Town in the summer, has been missing for the past two games having played the second half in the 2-0 defeat at Forest Green Rovers.
Cooper has made four changes to the starting XI which lost 1-0 at Braintree Town on Saturday with a changed forward line featuring new recruit Junior Morias and Harvey Greenslade as the Glovers look to be more ruthless in front of goal.
Speaking to BBC Somerset’s Josh Perkins ahead of kick-off, the Glovers’ boss said: “It is very hot and we have two teams who have played not very long ago, so I think the weather is going to play a big part, we are expecting a tough game today.
“It is not just the forwards, central midfield players are allowed to score, defenders are allowed to score, so we have just got to be more ruthless. As a team we are creating a lot of chances and that is what fans want to see, chances and goalmouth incidents, and we created a lot of those on Saturday, so if we do the same again and we are ruthless then we should be alright. We want to be on the front foot, get after them and take the ball off them in and around their penalty area and create chances.”
Get out Cooper abysmal second half took of the players who were having a good game to sit back and defend only to concede 4
