Billy Clarke shakes off groin problem and in contention for Plymouth
Posted Friday, November 22, 2019 by PA
Plymouth striker Billy Clarke has been declared fit for the Sky Bet League Two clash with Bradford after recovering from a groin problem.
Clarke was sidelined for the 1-0 win at Forest Green Rovers last weekend after sustaining the injury in training but is now poised for a return to action against his former club.
“Bill’s a terrific player, a terrific lad and he knows how hard it is to get in the team. He has got to work to get in there,” boss Ryan Lowe said.
Full-back Callum McFadzean and Joe Riley have overcome minor knee issues to take their places in the squad.
Bradford are missing long-term absentees Joe Riley and Jamie Devitt as they contend with an ongoing injury crisis.
Riley is out for the remainder of the season because of a knee problem and Devitt is not expected back until January because of a hamstring tear.
However, boss Gary Bowyer has no fresh injury concerns and can at least call on the fit again Harry Pritchard and Jake Reeves.
“We are looking forward to what should be a really good game of football,” Bowyer said.
