Bees missing Oster and John

Barnet will still be without John Oster and Collins John when fellow strugglers AFC Wimbledon head to Underhill.

Midfielder Oster is in light training after an ankle injury but is not ready to return while former Fulham striker John remains on the sidelines with a thigh strain.

Ishmail Kamara has undergone a shoulder operation which will keep him out for a couple of months and fellow forward Steve Kabba remains a long-term absentee with a knee injury.

Liam O'Brien has an ongoing hernia problem so Graham Stack continues in goal.

Recent loan signings Andy Iro and George Barker were on the bench for Barnet's last outing, the 1-0 defeat at Cheltenham a fortnight ago, and are pushing to make their debuts.

Jonathan Meades returns to the AFC Wimbledon squad.

The on-loan Bournemouth midfielder was ineligible for last weekend's FA Cup defeat at MK Dons.

But Wimbledon will be without fellow loanee Jake Reeves after he was recalled by parent club Brentford earlier this week.

On-loan West Ham forward Paul McCallum is also missing as he serves the second game of a three-match ban.

However, the Kingsmeadow injury list has cleared up with defenders Pim Balkestein, Callum McNaughton and Mat Mitchel-King all in the squad which travelled to Milton Keynes after spells on the sidelines.

Full-back Warren Cummings has returned to training after a hamstring problem but midfielder Sammy Moore is out until the new year with a shin injury.
