Coventry City boss Chris Coleman will have to juggle his squad for Saturday's home clash with Preston.

Coleman will be without  striker Freddy Sears who will miss out of tomorrow’s game after suffering a knock in training. He limped  of training ground yesterday, it is not known yet how long he wil be out.

Midfielder Aron Gunnarsson is also in doubt. He injured his his hip during the the same training session.

Better news surrounds striker Freddy Eastwood, he did train and continues to recover from a back injury. It is hoped he will be be fit to start. City youngster Shaun Jeffers is in with a chance of  playing at some stage of the game.

Chris Coleman said of the injury worries,  “Searsy limped out with a bad kick on his ankle so he looks very, very doubtful. Aron pulled out at the last minute and he looks like he has got a problem with the top of his thigh and hip after swivelling funny and he might have pulled a muscle, so he’s also doubtful for us.”

Michael McIndoe looks to have recovered from his recent injury absence and is likely to figure in  the starting line up.
