Centre-half Dan Happe is expected to return for Leyton Orient ahead of tomorrow’s FA Trophy quarter final replay against Gateshead.
The 19-year-old was ruled out of Saturday’s game against Dover Athletic through illness, with Joe Widdowson having to fill in at centre-back, but the young academy graduate is expected to recover in time to be in contention.
Elsewhere, the O’s are set to be without George Elokobi and Jobi McAnuff once again, with the duo unlikely to recover from their respective injuries in time for tomorrow’s game. Elokobi hasn’t featured since picking up a hamstring problem in the warm-up against Chester, while McAnuff has been side-lined for the last month with a shoulder problem.
Sam Ling, Marvin Ekpiteta, Dan Holman and Nathan Mavila will also be unavailable for selection for the O’s as they are all cup tied.
Meanwhile, Orient skipper Charlie Lee remains side-lined with a serious knee injury and the midfielder is unlikely to play again this season.
