SOUTHEND United goalkeeper Mark Oxley is expected to be out for 'two to four weeks' with a groin injury.
Oxley, who had started every League game for the Shrimpers this season, was sidelined for Saturday's 0-0 draw with Salford City.
And Blues boss Mark Molesley does not expect the shot-stopper to make an immediately return.
"It’s a groin issue for Ox," said Molesley.
"I haven’t had the full results sent to me yet but they’re with our physio.
"It was a grade one in one area and grade two in another.
"That can be two to four weeks is what we’ve been told.
"Ox feels a bit better today but that could be because he hasn’t been aggravating it so we will have to see how that one settles."
