SOUTHEND United have a behind closed doors clash at Leyton Orient this afternoon.
The match has been organised to give Shrimpers players much needed minutes after spells out.
Goalkeeper Collin Andeng Ndi, who has been out with a hamstring issue since November, is expected to play along with striker Jake Hyde.
Hyde has missed the last fives games with a hamstring injury of his own but is expected to feature against the O’s today.
Left-back Tom Clifford, midfielder Jon Benton and striker Henry Sandat are all likely to be involved.
