Latest team news for the vital Southend United v Oxford United League Two clash at Roots Hall Tuesday evening, kick-off 19.45, with three points seperating the sides & a travel update! Bilel Mohsni: Will try and get his fourth goal in four games from the backThe odds are that for Tuesday evening's game between Shrimpers and U's Graham Coughlin will not start after sustaining a hamstring problem in the 2-0 victory at Barnet.This will allow the side that finished the game at Underhill to start tonight in a vital game for both teams with the play-offs being mighty close if the boys in Blue can gain three points leading up to another Roots Hall clash against high-riding Shrewsbury Town at the weekend.This means 12-goal top scorer Barry Corr will return to the attack allowing the not-Blackpool bound Bilel Moohsni to stay at centre-half.In goal Blues boss Paul Sturrock will have to choose between an expected to be fit after flu Glenn Morris and the man who has held the goalkeeping position for the last couple of games, letting in one goal, Rhys Evans.A toughie, but we would go with the consistant Glenn but wouldn't be surprised if Luggy sticks with Rhys whatever the fitness of the former Orient shot stopper. A positive result for the Shrimpers would continue their unbeaten run to five games since losing at home to Chesterfield on the 8th of January, three and a half weeks ago.Possible Southend United: Morris, Clohessy, Barker, Mohsni, Gilbert, Ferdinand, Easton, Grant, Hall, Sturrock, Corr. Subs: Evans, Herd, Phillips, Comminges, Sawyer, Soares, Paterson.COME ON YOU BLUES!!!!!TRAVEL UPDATE:Just a reminder for both sets of fans planning to drive to this evening's game the news from the official site that road closures will be in operation after the match.Victoria Avenue will be closed from 22.30 between Fairfax Drive and Cuckoo Corner.A diversion will be in place due to road works taking place around the Cuckoo Corner area.
