Simeon Akinola out of Barnet’s crucial clash

Barnet will be without Simeon Akinola as they try to avoid joining opponents Chesterfield in being relegated from League Two.

The midfielder was carried from the field on a stretcher during the win at Morecambe with what turned out to be a torn Achilles.

Alex Nicholls came on to replace Akinola last weekend and he is in contention to start on Saturday.

Ryan Watson is another option for Bees boss Martin Allen, whose team must win and hope Morecambe’s result at Coventry goes in their favour if they are to survive.

On-loan defender Sid Nelson will be absent for bottom-of-the-table Chesterfield, whose relegation has already been confirmed.

Nelson suffered a broken hand and a suspected leg fracture during the Spireites’ home win against Newport on Tuesday night and he has returned to parent club Millwall for treatment.

Giles Coke looks to have recovered from his Achilles injury and the midfielder is hoping to feature on the final day of the season.

Caretaker boss Ian Evatt could once again include youngsters Jacob Brown and Jack Holmes in his squad.
