All the news ahead of AFC Bournemouth v Northampton Town
Daniel Alfei could come back into contention for Tuesday night’s Capital One Cup second round tie at Bournemouth but Evan Horwood (tendonitis) and Darren Carter (hamstring) are unlikely to feature.
“Danny could be back but I don’t think Evan or Darren will be,” said boss Chris Wilder.
“We are in a tough run of games at the moment and the injuries haven’t helped but this might be a period that we just have to get through.
Wilder also confirmed that Alex Nicholls spent a couple of days at a fellow League 2 club last week with a view to the striker moving on loan.
“Alex has spent a couple of days training with another club and we are desperate to get him out to get some games," he said.
“He needs to be playing football and hopefully something will happen there.”
