Vital Quotes:
Hereford United Team News:
Tamika Mkandawire is suspended and Glyn Thompson returns from injury.
Player to watch: Steve Guinan – Striker
A tricky forward with an eye for goal he is one of the fan’s favourites.
Barnet Team News:
Adam Birchall has been ruled out for a fortnight thanks to a hamstring injury sustained in last week’s disappointing home defeat to Accrington Stanley.
Lee Harrison (thigh) is out for another week whilst Jason Norville continues his comeback from injury. Liam Hatch, Barry Cogan and Magno Vieira are all suspended. Dean Sinclair returns from suspension and Ross Flitney returns from injury, however.
But Andy Hessenthaler picked up a groin injury in Friday’s training session, however, and will be miss the trip. However there is good news for Jason Puncheon who could return following his injury which was expected to keep him out of action for longer.
Likely Barnet Lineup:
GK: Burch
RB: Hendon (c)
CB: Yakubu
CB: King
LB: Gross
RM: Graham
CM: Sinclair
CM: Bailey
LM: Puncheon
ST: Warhurst

Player to watch: Dean Sinclair – Midfielder
Makes his return from suspension and his drive from the middle of the park will be desperately needed with the lack of strikers Paul Fairclough has available to him.
