Wilcox to shuffle his pack

York boss Russ Wilcox could be tempted to make one or two changes for his side's home game against Yeovil.

Wilcox has fielded the same starting XI in the Mintermen's first three games this season and although pleased with his players' performance could opt to rest some as they prepare for their fourth game in 12 days.

Striker Jake Hyde is pushing for his first start of the season after three substitute appearances, while midfielder Josh Carson and defender Eddie Nolan are also among those in contention.

Wilcox revealed at his pre-match press conference that forward Michael Coulson will consult a specialist on Tuesday and may require surgery to resolve a groin problem.

Matty Dolan's suspension gives another selection headache to Yeovil manager Paul Sturrock.

Dolan was sent off in the second half of Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Bristol Rovers for two bookable offences and serves a one-match suspension.

Sturrock was already without the injured Marc Laird (hamstring), Ryan Dickson (groin), Ben Tozer (cartilage), Omar Sowunmi (knock), Jordan Gibbons (groin), Kevin Dawson (knee) and Simon Gillett (pelvis), but Jack Compton (calf) gave some respite to the injury woes by returning to the bench on Saturday.

Goalkeeper Artur Krysiak impressed against Rovers on his first league appearance of the campaign and is set to keep his place ahead of Chris Weale, who started the campaign's opener at Exeter.
