Match Preview
Brewers unsure on McGrath Burton captain John McGrath is an injury concern ahead of the visit of Southend. McGrath was forced off with an ankle problem towards the end of the defeat to Swindon in midweek and the midfielder will be assessed. Defender Aaron Webster (hamstring), midfielder Jacques Maghoma (hamstring) and striker Calvin Zola (calf) missed out at the County Ground on Tuesday night but boss Paul Peschisolido hopes to be able to include the trio in his squad. Billy Kee broke down again during the defeat at Cheltenham last weekend and the 12-goal striker has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with the groin problem that has plagued him since November. Defender Patrick Ada comes back into the reckoning after serving a one-match suspension. Southend manager Paul Sturrock is keeping his cards close to his chest as to whether Liam Dickinson, Kane Ferdinand, Ryan Hall or Bilel Mohsni will be involved. Dickinson, Ferdinand and Hall breached club discipline procedures in the team hotel the night before last Saturday's defeat at Morecambe - something Sturrock was not made aware of until after the loss. All three were banished to the reserves in midweek although it remains to be seen whether that will be their only punishment. Sturrock was also coy when questioned about the future of mercurial winger Mohsni, who again attracted the headlines for all the wrong reasons at the Globe Arena having requested to be substituted before getting involved in a row with a home supporter and later storming out of the ground and taking the the train home. It is far from the first time this season Mohsni's antics have been brought into question and Sturrock is set to make an announcement on his future at the Essex club. Further to that, first-choice goalkeeper Glenn Morris (thigh) and midfielder Jean-Paul Kalala (knee) have both been ruled out. Loan signing Lee Hills is in contention to make his debut while striker Neil Harris is expected to have overcome a dead leg.

Match Report
Shrimpers back on track Southend revived their hopes of automatic promotion with two second-half strikes to down Burton 2-0 at the Pirelli Stadium. David Martin and Neil Harris scored the goals to pile the pressure on Burton boss Paul Peschisolido, whose side have now gone 11 games without a win. Southend keeper Dale Belford had a busy first half in his first appearance on loan from Bury. He had a lucky break when Brewers striker Adi Yussuf squandered a great chance in the third minute, but later showed a safe pair of hands as Cleveland Taylor, Jimmy Phillips and Aaron Webster tried to break the first-half stalemate. Southend axed four players from their matchday squad for club disciplinary reasons, including top scorers Liam Dickinson and Ryan Hall. Veteran striker Harris had chances to give them the lead, but headed too high from a corner before he was denied by Ross Atkins' full-length save. Southend, who had lost their last two, made the stronger start to the second half and Martin gave them the lead on the hour mark when he beat Atkins with a quickly-taken free kick from 25 yards. And the visitors sealed victory when Harris hammered home the rebound after Atkins had done well to keep out Anthony Grant's shot in the 75th minute.
