Leyton Orient could have striker Darius Henderson available for tomorrow's crucial match at Colchester United.

Henderson has not features since the end of October after being sidelined with a foot injury but could make the squad for the trip to the O's local rivals.

Midfielders Romain Vincelot (thigh) and Dean Cox (hip) missed last weekend's draw at Preston with injuries but both are expected to be fit to face Colchester.

Right-back Neil Eardley is in line to make his debut for Orient after joining on a one-month loan from Birmingham City yesterday. 

Both sides are involved in the League One relegation battle with Orient just two points and places above tomorrow's opponents.

The O's will be hoping to take advantage of a woeful recent run for Colchester which has seen them lose their last five league games at the Weston Homes Community Stadium.

But Orient will want to erase the memory of the 2-0 home defeat back in September when they lost to ten-man Colchester in a result which led to former boss Russell Slade admitting his job was under threat.
