Maddox a doubt for Cheltenham’s cup replay with Ebbsfleet

The midfielder, on loan from Chelsea, picked up an ankle injury in Town’s 3-0 win at Notts County on Saturday.

Cheltenham have an injury worry over midfielder Jacob Maddox for their Emirates FA Cup first round replay against non-League Ebbsfleet on Tuesday night.

Maddox, who is on a season-long loan from Chelsea, was taken off five minutes from the end of his side’s 3-0 win at Notts County on Saturday after sustaining a knock to his ankle.

Cheltenham manager Michael Duff has not yet ruled out Maddox, but is confident in the depth of his squad as he ponders whether to make changes for the visit of Ebbsfleet, who earned a replay from a goalless draw earlier this month.

For Saturday’s league game, Duff made two changes to the side that started last week’s Checkatrade Trophy victory over Coventry, replacing Kelsey Mooney and Tom Field with Chris Hussey and Luke Varney who scored twice to lift Town out of the relegation zone.

Ebbsfleet drew 0-0 in their latest Vanarama National League at Boreham Wood, a third successive clean sheet which extended their unbeaten run to five matches.

Fleet manager Garry Hill must decide whether to stick with Sean Shields and Andy Drury, who were brought in for their first starts on Saturday.

They took the place of Myles Weston and Ebou Adams who were away on international duty.

Coventry loanee Reise Allassani was back on the bench on his return to the club.
