Aldershot v Exeter preview

admin

Dean Holdsworth is unlikely to make any changes to his Aldershot team as they prepare to face Exeter.

The Shots started their league campaign with an assured 2-0 victory at Plymouth and Holdsworth will be reluctant to change his starting XI as his team aim to record back-to-back wins.

Versatile defender Myles Anderson was a late substitute at Home Park but will be made to continue his wait for his first start since arriving on a one-month loan deal from Blackburn.

Guy Branston and Olly Lancashire (both calf) missed the victory but may be in contention for a place on the bench.

Midfielder Craig Stanley (broken leg) and goalkeeper Ross Worner (back) are both ruled out as they remain sidelined with injuries.

Striker Danny Hylton meanwhile continues to serve his eight-match suspension for racial abuse and is not due to return until the clash against Accrington on September 22.

Meanwhile, new signing Elliott Chamberlain may go straight into Exeter’s squad for their trip.

The Wales Under-21 international striker joined the club on Monday after leaving Leicester at the end of last season.

Chamberlain, 20, spent most of pre-season with the Grecians and manager Paul Tisdale had been keen to sort out a deal with him.

Alan Gow or Jamie Cureton are expected to make way as Tisdale looks to refresh his attack after their 3-0 defeat to Morecambe on the opening day.

Tommy Doherty may return after missing the last game with a knock picked up in the first round of the Capital One Cup last week.

Injured duo Steve Tully and Craig Woodman are expected to miss out again.
