Shrews at full strength as they look to tame Sunderland
Posted Thursday, October 18, 2018 by PA
Shrewsbury boss John Askey has a full squad to choose from for the visit of Sunderland.
Midfielder Anthony Grant, who missed last weekend’s defeat at Fleetwood through illness, has recovered and is expected to go straight back into the team.
Fellow midfielder Ollie Norburn was also struggling with illness earlier in the week but returned to training on Thursday.
Winger Abo Eisa is also back in training after a knee injury but is unlikely to be risked against the Black Cats after six weeks out.
Sunderland will be without the suspended Bryan Oviedo and Max Power for the trip.
Oviedo will serve the second game of his three-match ban after being sent off in the home draw with Peterborough, while Power was suspended for four matches after collecting his second red card of the season against Bradford.
Sunderland boss Jack Ross can call on the services of fit-again Lynden Gooch, although several other players remain sidelined by injury.
Defender Glenn Loovens will return to training next week but Charlie Wyke, Denver Hume and Donald Love are further away from a return to action.
