Hammond set for Saints comeback

02 January 2011 13:30
Southampton captain Dean Hammond should make the trip to Dagenham. The influential Saints skipper missed Saturday`s 4-0 victory over Exeter with flu but should be okay for Monday. Danny Butterfield was also judged not ready for inclusion against the Grecians following a dead leg but may recover in time to play a part in east London. On-loan forward Guly Do Prado marked his 29th birthday with a brace in the 4-0 triumph and the Brazilian should keep his place in the side. Former Derby winger Lee Holmes will miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery on an ankle injury in December. Midfielder Paul Wotton has joined Yeovil on loan for one month and will not be available. Left-back Joseph Mills, winger Jason Puncheon and midfielder Anthony Pulis continue their loan spells away from the club.
