Jaidi set for Saints return

16 April 2010 13:13
Radhi Jaidi could return to the Southampton squad for the trip to Yeovil. The Tunisian defender has missed the last two matches after suffering a hamstring strain earlier this month but he has resumed training and is set to challenge Dan Seaborne for his spot at centre-back. Fellow centre-half Wayne Thomas is also on the mend but is not quite ready to return from the calf injury which has sidelined him for a month. Full-back Graeme Murty is still missing with ankle ligament damage. Saints suffered no new injuries during Tuesday night's 5-1 win at Bristol Rovers so boss Alan Pardew is unlikely to tinker too much with his starting line-up. That means strikers Lee Barnard, Papa Waigo and David Connolly - who have scored 41 goals between them this season - are set to start on the bench again.
