Manny Duku misses Cheltenham’s cup clash with Colchester
Posted Monday, August 13, 2018 by PA
Cheltenham are without striker Manny Duku as they host Colchester in the Carabao Cup first round.
Dutchman Duku dislocated his shoulder when he fell over an advertising board behind the goal during Saturday’s Sky Bet League Two defeat against Tranmere.
Teenage forward George Lloyd is expected to be drafted into the squad as cover, but right-back Sean Long is still struggling with an ankle injury.
Left-back Chris Hussey, signed from Sheffield United, remains unavailable as he serves a five-match ban.
Colchester boss John McGreal is expected to freshen up his side, with forward Mikael Mandron one of those aiming for a recall.
Winger Courtney Senior will be hoping to retain a place in the team after impressing with the opening goal in Saturday’s win over Port Vale.
Goalkeeper Ethan Ross could come in to give a breather to Dillon Barnes, who has started the season with back-to-back clean sheets.
Forward Aaron Collins is on a season-long loan from Wolves, so it remains to be seen if he will be cleared to play.
