ADAM Thompson and Stephen McLaughlin are both set to figure for Southend United’s under 21 team against Luton Town this afternoon.

Thompson has not figured since dislocating his shoulder against Mansfield Town in early April while McLaughlin has missed the Shrimpers’ last four games with an illness.

However, both are expected to return against the Hatters and trialist centre-back Anthony Gerrard is also expected to figure.
