Barnet set to welcome back John Akinde from knee injury



Posted Wednesday, August 16, 2017 by PA

Striker John Akinde could make his first appearance of the season when Barnet host Luton in Sky Bet League Two.

Akinde missed the games against Forest Green and Peterborough because of a minor knee problem but is nearing full fitness.

Midfielder Jack Taylor returns from the one-match ban that forced him to miss the 3-1 Carabao Cup victory at Peterborough.

Defender Richard Brindley and midfielder Curtis Weston could miss out once more because of respective foot and calf injuries.

Luton could hand a debut to Harry Cornick as they look to build on their 8-2 opening day victory over Yeovil.

Cornick joined from Bournemouth last week and the forward could come into manager Nathan Jones' squad after missing their Carabao Cup first-round defeat to Ipswich.

Dan Potts, Alan McCormack and Isaac Vassell missed out against the Tractor Boys but the trio will be pushing for returns this time out.

Danny Hylton (leg) and James Justin (hamstring) will be struggling to be passed fit in time to travel.
