Centre-half back for Borough Eastbourne are likely to be able to call upon Marc Pullan for their clash against Histon.

The experienced central defender failed a late fitness test prior to Saturday's 1-1 draw at Mansfield but returned to training on Monday and will be assessed as late as possible, although he should be okay.

Otherwise, Borough are likely to have the same squad available as they did at the weekend having not picked up any new injuries or suspensions.

Defender Neil Jenkins serves the second game of his three-match ban for his dismissal against Salisbury.

Matt Crabb, Gary Elphick and Darren Baker all returned to training last week to take their place in the starting XI against the Stags and all three are in contention once again. Attacking midfielder Nathan Crabb is still absent for an indefinite period with a heart problem.

Head coach Nick Greenwood told Press Association Sport: "We know each other really well and it's going to be a really tough game. They beat us comfortably a couple of months ago so we've got to play a lot better this time." Histon manager Steve Fallon has the same squad of players that played out a goalless draw against Wrexham at the weekend.

The Stutes battled their way to an honest point against Dean Saunders' side but they will be looking to take all three from the trip to a Borough side who lie fifth from bottom in the Blue Square Premier.

Midfielder Nathanial Knight-Percival recovered from a broken nose to line up against Wrexham and he should again be involved, while defender Lanre Oyebanjo was also included upon his return from international duty.

Eastbourne Borough vs Histon

Last modified 21:52 24/11/09

Stutes fight back to claim point Bradley Hudson-Odoi made the most of a rare start for Histon by earning a 1-1 draw at Eastbourne.

The Ghanaian, a former Fulham trainee, struck just after the hour mark when he tucked Lanre Oyebanjo's ball past home keeper Danny Knowles.

But Borough only had themselves to blame for not claiming a first Blue Square Premier win in nine attempts.

They went ahead through Liam Enver-Marum, who latched onto Joe Benjamin's pass and fired his fifth goal of the season past Histon keeper Danny Naisbitt three minutes before the interval.

The hosts should have doubled their lead in the 47th minute after Adam Bygrave was adjudged to have fouled Benjamin in the area, but Paul Armstrong's penalty was too close to Naisbitt who beat out his effort.
