Benyon boost for Blues
Southend United,
Last updated:
Southend welcome Elliot Benyon back from suspension for their npower League Two trip to Oxford.
The striker has completed a three-match ban for his dismissal at Bradford on Good Friday and will challenge for a place in Paul Sturrock's matchday 16.
Sturrock could keep faith with the same XI who clinched a superb 3-0 victory at home to Barnet last Friday night, although, despite still having an outside chance of automatic promotion, he may well be tempted to rotate one or two with the Shrimpers' play-off place already secure.
Long-term absentee Ryan Leonard is looking at making a comeback against Macclesfield on the final day of the season, while Christian Dailly (broken toe) and Blair Sturrock have also returned to training are set to be ready for possible play-off action.
Liam Dickinson (ankle), JP Kalala and Barry Corr (both knee) will not play again this term.
