Brown ponders Shrimpers changes

Southend boss Phil Brown is expected to make one or two changes against Dagenham.

Brown is unlikely to name the same starting line-up for the third time in 10 days against the Daggers and he has plenty of options at his disposal.

The likes of Michael Timlin, Myles Weston, Conor Clifford and Shaquile Coulthirst could come into contention. Following back-to-back clean sheets against Burton and Cambridge, Brown will most likely keep faith with his defence.

The Shrimpers will again be without Jerome Binnom-Williams. The on-loan Crystal Palace teenager will complete a three-match suspension after seeing red in the recent 4-1 defeat to Wycombe.

Dagenham are likely to again be without striker Ade Yusuff.

Yusuff missed out on Boxing Day against Stevenage because of illness and it is thought he is unlikely to recover during the quick turnaround.

Other than long-term absentees Zavon Hines and Abu Ogogo, boss Wayne Burnett has a fully-fit and suspension-free squad to select from.

Veteran forward Jamie Cureton was rested on Friday and could be among those welcomed back into the fray.
