Rhys Healey may start Newport's clash against fellow strugglers Cambridge
Newport boss Warren Feeney could hand a first start to striker Rhys Healey as he targets victory over League Two basement boys Cambridge.
Healey, who is on loan from Sky Bet Championship outfit Cardiff, impressed as a substitute in last Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Doncaster and scored for the reserves in midweek, and Feeney has admitted he has played himself into contention.
His chances have been improved further by Jon Parkin's absence from training on Wednesday with a foot injury, and he remains a doubt.
Defenders Jamie Turley and Darren Jones are expected to shake off knocks, but midfielder Joss Labadie is likely to miss out after tweaking a hamstring at Doncaster.
Cambridge manager Shaun Derry revealed he has "three or four" unnamed players who will not be making the journey to Rodney Parade.
Included on the sidelines are midfielders James Dunne and George Maris who are both still recovering from ankle injuries.
Barry Corr (knee surgery) and Elliot Omozusi (broken foot) remain long-term absentees.
The U's are yet to win this season and travel to County, who have not won at home since March.
