Team News: Liam Hogan, Steven Schumacher back for Fleetwood Town

Fleetwood Town make two changes for the visit of Southend United, with Liam Hogan and Steven Schumacher starting at Highbury Stadium.

The Cod Army, who can keep their hopes of automatic promotion alive with a win, are without Alan Goodall as the defender starts a three-game suspension after picking up a red card in the victory over Wycombe Wanderers on Monday.

Southend, who can seal a playoff place with victory in the North West, make one change to their bench with Adam Thompson stepping in for Jamar Loza as the Essex club name an unchanged starting lineup.

That means that Jakub Sokolik, Kevan Hurst and John Egan, who all were minor doubts in the build-up to this game, all start for Phil Brown's team.

Fleetwood Town: Maxwell, Hogan, Pond, Roberts, Jordan, Blair, Schumacher, Sarcevic, Morris, Ball, Hume

Southend United: Bentley, White, Sokolik, Egan, Coker, Atkinson, Leonard, Timlin, Murphy, Corr, Hurst
