Walsall midfielder Danny Guthrie returns from suspension for Colchester clash

08 October 2020

Walsall have Danny Guthrie available for the Sky Bet League Two home clash with Colchester on Saturday.

The 33-year-old former Liverpool and Newcastle midfielder missed the Saddlers’ 1-1 draw at Forest Green last weekend as he served a suspension.

That was following his late red card in the previous league match – a 2-2 draw at Harrogate.

Darrell Clarke’s men are unbeaten after three games of their league campaign, having also defeated Grimsby 1-0 at the Banks’s Stadium.

Colchester, who have a four-game unbeaten record, have been assessing Callum Harriott ahead of Saturday’s contest.

The winger, after setting up the opener and scoring a penalty, was forced off in the 3-3 draw with Oldham last weekend having picked up a back injury.

Skipper Harry Pell could return after missing the last three league games with a groin problem.

Diaz Wright and Tom Lapslie (both knee) have also been sidelined.
