    On-loan Swansea right-back Liam Shephard could make his second Glovers debut against Newport.

    Connor Roberts is available following Wales under-21 duty, but on loan Everton midfielder Liam Walsh is still suspended.

    Darren Ward will be given time to prove his fitness after limping off on Good Friday against Carlisle.

    Francois Zoko is the other injury concern for the Glovers, with Ryan Bird and Leroy Lita in line to take his place.

    County will hope to maintain solid recent away form in Somerset, having lost just twice on the last five road trips, which is in stark contrast with their home fortunes of four games without a win.

    Their latest Rodney Parade reversal was a 2-0 defeat against Accrington on Easter Monday, and manager Warren Feeney will hope that three players who missed that match can be available this weekend against a Yeovil side three places and two points below the Welsh club.

    Andrew Hughes was ruled out of the Accrington clash with a hip problem, while Medy Elito (knee) and John-Christophe Ayina (groin) were also absent.
