City Aim For Top Spot

Last updated : 16 September 2003 By Andy Beill
Peter Taylor is likely to name the side that scraped a win against Southend on Saturday. With another victory at the forefront of his mind, Stuart Green will probably retain his place ahead of Dean Keates.

Alton Thelwell, Marc Joseph, Alan Fettis, John Anderson and Richie Appleby all remain sidelined, so no changes to the squad of 16 are expected.

City are currently a point behind table-toppers Oxford United - who go to Cheltenham this evening - and if Ian Atkins' side fail to win then first place will be there for the taking.

Expected line-up (4-4-2): Kuipers; Hinds, Whittle, Delaney, Dawson; Price, Green, Ashbee, Elliott; Allsopp, Burgess.
Subs: Musselwhite, Holt, Melton, Keates, Forrester.
