Northampton to assess Matt Crooks ahead of Swindon clash

Matt Crooks will be monitored ahead of Northampton’s home clash with Swindon.

The midfielder returned to the starting line-up at Yeovil after a month on the sidelines with an ankle injury, lasting 66 minutes before being substituted.

Striker Junior Morias was a late substitute on his return from suspension and will hope to feature more prominently against the Robins.

Andy Williams came on and scored the opening goal in the 1-1 draw at Huish Park, putting him in pole position for a starting spot.

Swindon boss Richie Wellens could ring the changes for the trip, although Steven Alzate is unlikely to be involved from the start.

The youngster was brought on with just under 15 minutes remaining of Saturday’s goalless draw at home to Cheltenham as he nurses an injury.

On his options, Wellens said: “Jermaine has been chomping at the bit and has impressed in the couple of times he’s come on.

“Steven Alzate – we know how good he is – came on but, at the moment, he’s struggling with his back and can’t train. We want him to start but need to make sure his back recovers properly so we have him 100%.”
