Jack Compton blow for Yeovil

Yeovil will be without summer signing Jack Compton when they take on AFC Wimbledon at Huish Park on Saturday.

The 27-year-old midfielder, who joined the Glovers in June following his release from League Two rivals Hartlepool, is set for a spell on the sidelines with a calf muscle injury he sustained in last weekend's 4-2 defeat to Morecambe.

Striker Shaun Jeffers is also missing for Paul Sturrock's side as he starts a three-match ban following his sending off last Saturday.

The former Peterborough and Newport forward's appeal against the straight red card was unsuccessful leaving Sturrock without the new addition as Yeovil look for a result to see them move up from second-bottom.

Karleigh Osborne could miss AFC Wimbledon's League Two trip to Yeovil after hobbling out of last week's 1-1 draw at Mansfield.

Dons boss Neal Ardley was left fuming with referee Ross Joyce for his role in a fiery clash containing seven bookings and a late red card for Lyle Taylor.

Bristol City loanee Osborne is now a doubt for Saturday's Huish Park clash, with Will Nightingale in line to deputise.

Fit-again 18-year-old centre-back Ryan Sweeney could come into contention for a seat on the bench should Nightingale slot in again for Osborne.
