Millwall vs Swindon - Millwall missing three for Swindon's visit to the Den

Posted Friday, October 16, 2015 by PA

Millwall boss Neil Harris will be without a trio of players for the Sky Bet League one clash against Swindon.

Midfielder Ed Upson has a knee injury which will keep him on the sidelines for the rest of October as the Lions aim for a third successive home win in all competitions.

Paris Cowan-Hall should return to training next week after a groin injury but fellow midfielder Jimmy Abdou will be missing for longer as physio Bobby Bacic confirmed he underwent surgery on a dislocated collarbone suffered in the recent defeat to Peterborough.

"Jimmy underwent surgery on Thursday to repair his dislocated collarbone. Now this surgical procedure has been done Jimmy is looking at a return to action towards the very end of December," Bacic told the club's website.

Jermaine Hylton has become the latest player to be consigned to Swindon's busy treatment room.

The striker picked up a groin strain in training and is out of Saturday's clash along with Louis Thompson, Jon Obika, Nathan Thompson, Jordan Turnbull, Wes Thomas, Jordan Williams, Kevin Stewart and Fabien Robert.

Manager Mark Cooper told BBC Wiltshire of his other walking wounded: "Brad Barry has to have some more (concussion) tests with the doctor.

"Yaser (Kasim) has had an injection and is going to try and train and Rafa (Branco) is going to try and train (on Thursday). More importantly we'll try and get him ready for Saturday."
