Shrewsbury without Toto Nsiala against Rochdale because of fractured cheekbone

Defender Toto Nsiala will miss Shrewsbury’s home game with Oxford after suffering a fractured cheekbone in their 3-1 defeat at Rochdale on Friday.

Nsiala needed lengthy treatment after he and Rochdale striker Stephen Humphrys clashed heads in the 27th minute, delaying the game by 13 minutes.

Max Lowe replaced Nsiala and could start against Oxford.

Skipper Abu Ogogo continues his four-match ban while Bryn Morris is available after serving a one-game suspension.

Jon Obika could start for Oxford in place of Wes Thomas for the trip to Newmeadow.

Thomas was replaced by Obika in the 54th minute of their 1-1 draw at home to Scunthorpe by new manager Karl Robinson.

The tactical switch helped get Oxford back into the game after being over-run in the early stages of the game that saw Scunthorpe take a 12th minute lead.

Robinson was pleased with the way his side played with Obika up front and is likely to start the former Tottenham trainee against Shrewsbury.
