Brad Halliday back for Cambridge

Posted Friday, October 26, 2018 by PA

Cambridge will have defender Brad Halliday available again following suspension for the Sky Bet League Two match against bottom club Macclesfield.

Halliday missed the midweek 2-0 win at Swindon as he served a one-match ban for collecting five cautions.

Forward David Amoo will be out to retain his place in the side having been selected ahead of Ade Azeez by U’s boss Joe Dunne.

Forward Jabo Ibehre has resumed training as he looks to make a return following concussion, while midfielder Harrison Dunk and goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov also continue their recovery.

Macclesfield slumped to a 5-0 home defeat by Northampton on Tuesday night, which left the Silkmen three points adrift at the foot of the table.

Joint caretaker-managers Danny Whitaker and Neil Howarth had named an unchanged side from the one which recorded a first win in 37 league games after beating Carlisle.

Midfielder Peter Vincenti and defender Michael Rose both retained their place in the team, so will be hoping for another chance to impress.

Elliott Durrell (groin) and Ryan Lloyd (ankle) continue their rehabilitation, along with Callum Evans (ankle), Whitaker (knee) and Jordan Ponticelli (metatarsal).
