Moncur may return for U's
George Moncur could return to action when Colchester host MK Dons looking to build on a morale-boosting victory.
The U's ran out 1-0 winners at Oldham on Saturday without midfielder Moncur as he sat out his fourth successive game due to tonsillitis and he will be assessed by the club's medical staff in the build up to kick off.
Boss Tony Humes could be tempted to name an unchanged line-up even if Moncur is available having seen his side end a three-game winless run against Latics.
Their 19-year-old matchwinner Sammie Szmodics will keep his place having scored in his last two matches.
MK Dons, who have suffered back-to-back league losses for the first time since last April, will check on goalkeeper David Martin
Martin remains a doubt after missing Saturday's defeat to Gillingham with a thigh strain so Ian McLoughlin could continue between the posts.
Some good news for the Milton Keynes club saw Ben Reeves manage 35 minutes at the Priestfield Stadium on his return from a hamstring injury and the winger could be pushing for a starting place on Tuesday night.
Danny Green and Will Grigg will also be hoping for recalls but Dean Bowditch (hamstring) is likely to remain out, while on-loan striker Jonson Clarke-Harris has returned to Rotherham.
