Swindon Town expect Joseph Hungbo to make a fast injury return. The 26-year-old was not able to finish training on Tuesday due to tightness in his thigh, but was back involved in training on Thursday. The expectation is that he will be back soon, but Swindon will continue to take things slowly with him to not risk exacerbating the issue.
What happened?
Joseph Hungbo is expected to make a quick return to action for Swindon Town after missing out against Cheltenham Town with a minor injury. In the first two weeks of the season, Hungbo had instantly excited Swindon fans with his pace and ability to cross, but he was missing against Cheltenham this weekend.
Why it matters for Swindon Town
The team is taking a cautious approach to avoid exacerbating the issue, with four of their five changes at the weekend coming due to fitness concerns. Ollie Clarke and Ryan Tafazolli were limited to playing for an hour, while Virtue was one of three players suffering from cramp at the end when he was replaced by James Debayo.
What comes next?
The situation should slowly be improving, with players getting more minutes under their belts and some returning. Swindon will continue to take things slowly with Hungbo to not risk exacerbating the issue. Goals this season: 2 scored, 1 conceded (+1 goal difference).
