Morecambe without Barkhuizen and Beeley for Yeovil clash

Tom Barkhuizen and Shaun Beeley are both set to miss out when Morecambe entertain Yeovil in Sky Bet League Two.

Former Blackpool forward Barkhuizen was taken off on a stretcher in midweek having suffered a rib injury and he could now be missing for a couple of weeks.

That is the same timeframe full-back Beeley is looking at after he twisted his ankle when the Shrimps drew with Exeter.

Aaron McGowan (hamstring) will also be missing while captain Peter Murphy (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of the campaign.

Yeovil Town manager Darren Way is unlikely to shuffle his pack too much against Morecambe, despite having an FA Cup third round replay only days later.

With the Glovers in the relegation zone they need points on the board and the prospect of securing back-to-back Sky Bet League Two wins for the first time this season cannot be put to one side - even if a win against Carlisle next Tuesday sets up a tantalising fourth round clash with Everton.

Shaun Jeffers came off the bench to keep Yeovil in the FA Cup by making it 2-2 in stoppage time against Carlisle at the weekend and he will be pushing hard for a starting berth at Globe Arena.
