Head2Head & Team News - Barnet (A)
Last updated : 28 September 2007 By Deano
Millers boss Mark Robins is hoping Ian Sharps will be available to start at Underhill as his hamstring injury drags on. Bad news is that new loanee Ryan Cresswell will miss the game along with Liam King, both have pulled muscles in training which if Sharps doesn't make it, leaves the side short of defensive options. An unfit Marc Joseph will continue at centre half with skipper Graham Coughlan if this is the case.
The other selection dilemma is upfront where a variety of players are pushing for two striking places. Chris O'Grady is expected to start, probably again with Derek Holmes as Bruce Dyer came off with a groin problem last weekend - he is however expected to be fit to make at least the substitues bench. Mark Hudson is expected back in training next week as he continues to build up the strength in his knee.
The Bees have a clean bill of health following their Friday morning training session and manager Paul Fairclough is just missing long term injury victims Michael Leary, Kenny Gillet and well travelled striker Guiliano Grazioli.
Jason Puncheon is fit after shaking off a cold and missing Thursday's training, as is 'keeper Rob Beckwith. Ismail Yakubu has also shaken off a minor calf problem.
Barnet have also been busy in the transfer market in the last 48 hours, netting England U18 midfieler Josh Wright from Charlton on a second months loan while 19 year old trainee 'keeper Tom Trebes has signed a deal after impressing since pre-season trials.
Here's the head to head between the two:
