Team News: Cambridge City vs Bulls

Cambridge will be without prolific striker Dave Sadler (hamstring) for the visit of the Bulls. The striker has missed two months and is still undergoing tests, but Cambridge will have tried and tested goalscorers in their line up with 11 goal striker Paul Booth and freescoring midfielder Mark Molesley both likely to start despite niggling injuries. Dale Binns and Robbie Simpson will also bolster their attack as they both return to full fitness.

The Bulls travel to Cambridgeshire again without Adam Stansfield and Stacy Coldicott. Stansfield is likely to return to full training next week, while Coldicott's return date is still uncertain. Simon Travis will travel with the squad but is unlikely to feature, and Guy Ipoua is tipped to start after coming off the bench in the last four matches. Darren Blewitt was withdrawn at Kidderminster with a hamstring strain and is unlikely to be risked with both Alex Jeannin and Ryan Green expected to return to the full back roles - a move that will return Rob Purdie to a more forward role, probably at the expense of either Jamie Pitman or Craig Stanley.

Match Odds (bet365): Cambridge 2/1, Draw 9/4, Hereford 11/10.
