United hope to dent in-form City
Hereford United could dent an impressive Chester City away record with victory at Edgar Street tomorrow, kick off 3pm.
United attacker John Grant has yet to find the scoresheet and Steve Guinan has netted just once, in the match at Nuneaton Borough, but boss Graham Turner told the Evening News: "The strikers have worked very hard and created chances for others. Goals will come their way but as long as goals come from other areas I don't mind who scores."
Michael Rose may miss the match with a hip injury and Ben Smith is definitely absent, but there are no other injuries to report in a squad that has won their last two matches.
"We had some decent performances against Nuneaton and Woking and Chester and Yeovil will be a test of how far we have improved," continued Turner. "Chester have got a very good away record and haven't conceded a goal while Yeovil look a very competent side."
Of Chester, managed by Mark Wright, Turner said: "They've invested heavily with some vastly experienced players and having a big squad helps. I expected them to be up their in contention with the likes of Doncaster and thought one of the ex-Football League clubs to be involved. I'm not ruling out Yeovil but many of the ex-league clubs have invested in players."
Chester will be without striker Dave Cameron, who is suspended, while defender Phil Bolland could return after missing the start of the season with a hairline fracture.
Chester's Steve Harkness and Ben Davies will have fitness tests.
Meanwhile, former Hereford United and current Shrewsbury Town physiotherapist Simon Shakeshaft has been given the all clear in his battle to overcome testicular cancer and will return to work at the Gay Meadow in November.
